There was a monstrous gray Tur collar' against which any girl's face would be pretty. And the price was low. Every morning on her way to work and evory night on her way home Elsie pressed a small, tilted nose against the heavy glass window and imaginatively snuggled inside that lovely garment. But between 'the 835 black lettered on that coat and the $6.50 which Elsie received each Tues day noca lay a chasm only imagina- tion could bridge. Three dollars a! the $6.50 went to her mother for board and Elsie knew bitterly well just how badly her mother needed ev- ery cent of the $3, One dollar that remained to Elsie each week went to satisfy' a doctor's bill. She and her younger sister had had typhoid fever and double pneumonia the winter be fore. Sixty cents went jor car fare. That left 81.40 for clothing, an occa- sional magazine, church dues, and all extras: Last winter - Elsic had not minded Weariig 4 shabby black melton her two © sisters before her had worn, But last winter Elsie had been only sixteen. This winter she was seven- ten and had come to know a certain im? Jim was cuifer in the petticoat jac tory where Elsie kept a power ma- chine going at = ear-aching , speed all week. He was tall and good-looking. Even Stella, who could turn out the most satin ruffles an hour and whose plumes and an oteasipnal pair of silk stockings, 'raised héf - long brown lashes 'when Jim 'passed her and al- Jowed a gleam of invitation to appear in her big brown eyes. And the gils said that Hattie, who was engaged to the bookkeeper in the downstairs of fico, would throw him over in a min- ute if Jim wanted her to. Elsie humbly realized her inferiority to Stella and Hattie. She knew that Jini could get girls with far prettier eyes than her round blue ones--girls who dressed "swell" and whom a fel- low would be proud of when .he took them out. Nevertheless, he always took the same car that Elsie got. Three times he asked Elsie to go out to & moving picture show and three times she had dolefully told him that her mcther didn't like to have her go out at night. Not for anything in the world would she have let him know that the one shabby black coat did duty for work and for good. Now it was the middle of November and Thanksgiving day was coming. Thanksgiving day spells football and Jim Wethers liked football better, so he averred, than he liked sausage and pancakes for breakfast. He was sure that Elsie's mother could make no objection to his taking Elsie to the football game that afternoon, so he told her to prepare to go. Part of Jim's charm lay in his strong willed way eof taking things for granted. Elsie bagl tried to stammer an excuse jand he had changed the subject. They were on the steet car. Jim lived half a mile beyond, but as soon as the evenings began to shorten and the dusk was heavy at 6.30 he always got off and walked the three blocks to Elsie's door and then 'continued to his. own home. a "I'l be a swell gaMe,"' he said, jubilantly, as he paused at the shalby gray steps. "1 wouldn't miss it for a farm, and," he continued in a lower tone, "I couldn't enjoy it without you, Elsie." Miserably, * bitterly, Elsie went up the steps and out into. the kitchen and dining room combined where her mother; tired and almost discouraged with the Jobim of living, 'was cut- ting bread. 5 wich 1 had a new coat," said Blsie. "I'd go without eating all winter." "I wish I could get you one,' sigh- ed her mother. "But, mercy me, 1 couldn't hardly save out the rent this month. And I ow® the butches protly near five dollars. I... don't know what your pa will say. And Harry -needs . shoes; and butter" has more. She oarried the plate of bread over the table and poured out the tea, Then Anna and Kate came rushing in, and her father.' Her mo- ther called the children 'from the street in the rear where they were playing. All the bibterness that life can hold filled Elsie's rebellious beart at that moment. The worst of it was that there was nothing tangible that she beould blame. She couldn't blame Jim for asking her to go--she would have miserable had he asked some : fh 8 i if i 25k =z.

Just as gradually the discarded skin is replaced by the clear, white, youth- ful skin underneath. Mercolized wax, procurable at any drug store, is ap- plied nightly like cold cream and erased mornings with warm water.

That morning Elsie ran a needle through her finger, That was because she was thihking more of Stella's coat than of the black sateen she was fling. It was not a serious hurt, but 'it bothered her so much that when she went out at noon to at- tend to an errand for her mother she forgot to be watchful. She darted acrces a crowded corner and an electric brougham that had the! right of way orushed her against the heavy wnecl of a dray. There was a startled scream from the interior of the brougham. Elsie stood absolutely still and =o saved herself. A woman was driving the car. She flung open the door and the policeman who rushed up put Elsie inside. In a few minutes it was discovered that the only da- mage was to Elsie"s shabby black coat--a long rent in the 'right sleeve. "I'm go thankful," sighed the wo- man, who was wearing sealskin. With quick, shrewd eyes she looked Elsie over asd saw the shabby skirt and shoes. Then she looked about her and saw the coat and suit store just across the otreet. Before Elsie knew it they were out of the brougham and standing in front of the window "See anything there you she asked calmly, Elsie gasped; she wasn't quite sure that she was alive. Her glow- ing eyes went straight to the one in the centre, with the wide bands of gray fur. "But .my coat is old," Elsie stam- mered. "It isn't worth a new one--"' The woman smiled amusedly. "I might have hurt miore than your coat," she sald, soberly." "Shall 1 have it seni, or do you want .to wear it? That sleeve looks bad." "I'll take it in a box," said Elsie: She looked carelessly at the torn sleeve. She could mend it before night. But she wanted the coat to be worn in all its first glory Thanksgiving Day. like?"

"I'll do any mortal thing you ask me darling," Phil Leslie was say- ing rapturously, 'and to-night shall see my last visit to the club." "I don't mind your going to the club a little bit, Phil, dear," pretty Lois answered "and, eaithoug of tourse I know you're no faint, still (1 won't allow anybody to say you're a rake.

It had bean on the tip of her tomgue to tell her stalwart sweetheart how the man Tooker had molested her of late, how persistently during the past weeks he had pressed his at- tentions upon her, but, dreading Phil's anger, she overcame the mo- mentary impulse and was silent. "Well, darling, 1 must be off. The boys are waiting for me." "You will not stay. late," Lois pleaded, clinging more closely to him, while the unsuspetced watcher gnashed his teeth in impotent rage, "promise me dear heart?" "Have I not already proin'sed? You know, Lois, I always keep my word." A moment later he was riding away, and Lois sank down 4 upon the old rustic seat, pressing her red lips to the rose he had given her at parting. Suddenly, her happy thoughts were rudely in- terrupted. She felt the clasp of strong arms around her waist; then before she could struggle or cry out, a passionate kiss was implant- ed upon her trembling lips. With a choking cry she struggled free, and, spring to her feet, turned to look into. the evil face of Tooker, who had clept up noiselessly. "You cad! You utter cad!" she cried. X The man laughed maliciously. "You refused my love," he answer- ed, "laughed at the passion your beauty created in my heart. Now, by all things holy and unholy, you shall pay." He stepped towards her, but - be- fore he could take her in his arms again, the terrified girl turned and fled, dropping the flower her lover had just given her. Tooker swore softly. "Some other tine, then; I know how to: wait," he muttered. Then his eyes fell upon the flower, and stopping, he picked it up. "The flower young Leslie gave her. Here's my oppor- tunity to avenge myself upon the proud beauty. Yes, if I don't wreck her love idol my name's not Mark Tooker." Then, placing the rose in his but- tonhole, he strolled off in the dir- ection of the town chuckling to himself as he thought of the misery he was plotting to plant in two young and loving hearts. Meanwhile Phil and his boon, companions were making merry. They accepted his story of coming reformation with many a sly nod and wink, but their good wishes were genuine, as they wished both him and his pretty bride-to-be the best luck and fortune. Then the door was swung open and Tooker entered the room. "Hello, boys!" he cried. 'Hello, Leslie." He smiled at the happy group as though certain of a wel- come. But before anyone could speak. Phil confronted him with blazing 'eyes. . "Where dfd you get that rose?" he demanded, hoarsely. "Really; Leslie, are you mad?" Tooker began, but Phil interrupted him fariously. | "Don't try your bluff with me, Tooker," he cried. 'I. know the type of man you are, and, knowing what I do I feel justified in de- manding an answer to my question. Where did you get that flower?' "You demand, sir," Tooker an- swered, with a sneering laugh; "by what right do you demand?" "Because mot two hours ago I gave it to my flancee--to Lois Scott, the woman I love." "The woman you love," with a quick movement Tooker flung the flower at the other's feet, "then take it back. Had I known you had given it to the lady, 1 wouldn't have received it from her, I want no second-hand affections." Before his friends, (could inter- fere, Phil struck the scandal-mon ger a violent blow upon the mov "You shall pay for that blow, you poor deluded fool," Tooker gasped, as he reeled back against the wall, "When and where you like." @ The preliminaries £6° the inevitable duel were soon arranged; but, unseen by the excited young men, one of their number, Tom Fassett, who was engaged to Lois' sister, Cleo; stolé away to acquaint the girl with the threatened tragedy, hoping to prevent it at all cost. a i Lois' grief was terrible as she lis tened to his story, but, in the midst of her agony of mind, she felt a great pride in the man who was about to face death for her sake. : "Give him all my love, Tom, and this," ishe said, handing him the silk en scarf she wore about her shoul- ders. *'I shall be waiting, and, should he conquer, tell him to wave the scarf and proceed immediately to the tryst ing place." od Faseott went sadly on his mission, and left alone, Lois took her place at the open window, sitting so that she could watch the road along which she prayer her lover would return. An hour passed, then suddenly she heard the thunder of a horse's hoofs, as a wild rider galloped around the bend; then, with a cry, she staggered to her feet, for it wa@-Tooker.
