I had no idea you were in New York.” Katherine Sonnot's assumption of surprise was perfect as she advanced toward the tall nurse masquerading under the name of Miss Burke in Lillian Underwaod’s household, and who, we strongly suspected, was an agent of the Prussian secret service, sent to spy upon Lillian. Katherine had caught her earlier in the aftern What Happened a glimpse of oon, and had had gone to training school with her, and while there had borne the name of Berg.

You were always a great one for practical jokes in train- ing school. Of course, you remember Katherine Sonnot, ‘the little mouse you used to call me in the old days in the hospital.” A Firm Denial. “I am sorry to disappoint you,” the nurse returned firmly, “but the friend you speak of must bear a remarkable resemblance to me. I must reiterate, however, that my name is Burke, and that I have never seen Yyou before in my life.” She stared coldly, insolently, at Katherine, who returned her gaze un- flinchingly .And then Lillin struck in: “You will pardon meN Miss Burke, or Berg, but I cannot doubt the evi- dence of my friend's eyesight. She tells me that.you used to be called Anna Berg and that at that time yvou spoke exceedingly broken English, and were continually comparing this country to your own, with reflections upon ours. You can read- ily see that such information lays Yyou under grave suspicion.” “I am not accustomed to have my word questioned,” began the nurse haughtily, “And you will deubtless see the im- propriety of remaining in a house where it is doubted,” Lillian coun- tered smroothly. “I will, of course, pay you for the entire week. But I should prefer that you leave within the next half-hour.” The woman opened her mouth to protest, then turned toward her room. “As you please,” she said. “You will pardon me if I go with you while you pack,” Lillian said.

Smith, authors of “Sybil.”” Throughout the threce acts of “Rambler Rose” Mr. Smith has woven an interesting and at all times amusing story. To Miss Sanderson falls the role of a young American girl, Rosamond Lee, a charity pupil at an aristocratic English school. Not approving of the matrimonial plans laid down for her by others, she frowns upon the suit of an ex tremely bashful young man with money, putting her affections on a young artist, whom she follows to Paris and to Deauville with the straightforward American deter- mination to make him speak his mind. So certain is she that he re- turns her davotion. From these wan- derings of the heart she obtains the name of ‘“Rambler Rose.” Needless to say, being thoroughly American, she ig successful in her quest. Mr. Cawthorn portrays the bashful vaung man and he has never been funnier. The Charles Frohman Company has surrounded Miss Sanderson and Mr. Cawthorn with a splendid sup- porting company, including John Goldsworthy, Stewart Badrd, George E. Mack, Ada Meade, Kate Sergeant- son and numerous others. The scenic investure is a tasteful and elaborate one. The first act is at a fashionable girl’s school near Plymouth, Eng- land, the second at a smart studio in Paris, and the third in the romantic environment of the Casino Gardens at Deauville. And then the woman, unable to re- strain the venom of her nature, turned } upon Lilllan ana hissed ane German ! word that I shall not record. “I thought so.” Lillian said quietly. “Madge, you stay here, and Kathe ine come with me. I don’'t trust this wild cat. And kindly remember, Miss Berg, or whatever your name is, that T always have with me a little pistol that makes no sound, and which I necessary.” ‘What Madge “Saw.” I shivered as if with cold at Lil- lian’s tone. It was grim, relentless. I knew that she meant exactly what she said, and it gave me a glimpse of a side of my friend of which I had seen slight traces before. she would stop at nothing if her duty to her country were involved. But the idea of her carrying deadly & wWeapan concealed about her chilled me with a dread that had its roots in one of the queer uncanny forebodings which come to me some- times, and that so often are realized. I wonder sometimes and then laugh at myselt for the wonder, whether I am not psychic in these queer glimpses iInto the future which are sometimes vouchsafed me. But at any rate, as Lillian and Katherine followed the blackly scowl- ing nurse down the corridor, leaving s0 GRAY HAIR BECOMES DARK AND BEAUTIFUL Look years younger!

Despite its unusual features this model is especially- recommended to the home dressmaker because of its few seams. This fact is illustrated to better advantage, perhaps, in the cutting guide. It is shown there that by bplacing the collar, back and front sections of the pattern along the lengthwise fold of material, they can be cut without seams. The space left opposite the collar may be uti- lized for the pocket, the large “O” perforations resting on a lengthwise: thread of material. The loop is laid on the fabric to the upper right of the back. After the fromt is provid- ed for, there remain the strap, sleeve cap, puff and cuff, all of which must be laid on the chambray so that the large “O” perforations will rest on a lengthwise thread. If batiste is used for the puff, the pattérn is laid on the material just as {llustrated in the guide. The belt is placed on either a lengthwise or crosswise fold. The sleeve can be made shorter by cutting off the lower edge of the puff along crossline of small “0” per- forations before placing the tissue on the goods.

T made up my mind last year that I would not do it ever again, Let me tell example what I mean. I Was Sure I Could Get It Quickly. T called it chasing the quarter because in the case which brought the habit most strongly to my mind the amount was a quarter. I wanted to get a bud vase for a ‘friend. I had put it down on my list, *“Bud vase—$.50." T expected to go Into some shop and buy one in three min- utes. But when T set out confidently to do that I could not find the kind of bud vase I wanted for fifty cents, So T looked in three more shops. And still T couldn't find it. Then I said, “I will wait until the next time I'm in. I'm going to be | in the other part of the town, I'll try there.” 1 Couldw’t Bear to Spend That Extra Quarter. And the next time I was in, 1T you by just looked in four more places and still {1 could not find what I wanted for i fifty cents. Plenty for seventy-five, ves. But on my list I had reckoned | fifty cents and T aidn’t want to pay any more. FEventually I paid sixty cents after spending more time than I had on two or three of my most ex- pensive gifts. That is, it had taken more energy out of me to chase that quarter than to spend twenty times as much money. Make Your Total Small Enough So That You Can Go Ower. When I recognized that face - I made a resolution that I would never do it again. “I will make my total estimate small enough so that if I had to go over a quarter or a half or a dollar, here and there, can do it, and won't have to take it out of myself,” I said. Of course this year I am tiying to celebrate the new Christmas. But that means that I am.going to spend for different people rather than cease to spend. rule.
