I was admired and flattered to my silly heort’s content. Mr. Somers be- came quite too improssive after a while, making me most un- comfortable, but as Jack didn't ap- pear to notice it, I, of course, could say nothing. Mrs, Somers told me—while Jack and her husband were talking—that Mr. Howells was bothering her to death to bring me to his studio for a sitting. If he could see you to-night he would be wild over you! You are a perfect picture, Sue! Every man in the room 1s admiring you, and every woman {ts green with jealousy! Aren't they, Mrs. Cummings?” turning to Gertie. “Indeed they are!" returned Gertie, “I haven't been able to look at any- one else myself, and I know Sue pretty well too, so I don't blame them,” Embarrassed, although elated by their praise, I tried to stop them, but Mr. Somers, hearing what Gertie had said, remarked: “You can’t blame people for look- ing at the prettiest and best dressed woman in the room, can you? That is a stunning gown! Why don’t you ask Mrs. Coolidge who her dress maker is, Mildred?” turning to his wite. “I must!" Mrs, Somers replied, her eyes twinkling, “I haven't heard you mention a lady's gown in so long I had commenced to think you never admiring Susan's forgive you for Gress, It's lovel: Is it any wonder that my foolish head was turned?

I told Jack afterward that it was more as people acted at the opera than at a vaudeville show. Jack seemed very proud and happy at the attention I received, and, what was most unusual for him, I thought he swaggered little. Not much, but enough so that I noticed it, and I thought M Somers had a peculiar smile once or twice when he was just a little too pronounced, Enjoy yourself, Sue?” Jack asked as we were getting ready for bed I should say I did!"
