As we filed out to dinner Arthur gazed frowningly at me, but I did not give him an op- portunity to speak, 1 knew that had ¢ had the chance he would not have hesitated to condemn me for leaving the room, Thus it is always with a nan who ig gifted with the power to faults of others, but who canno his own. Arthur wonld have criticised me for deing precisely what he had been doing for several nthe, and the injustice of the crit- m never would have occurred to Lim Mr. Pendleton's seat was at my right, This had not been prearrang- ed, Mr. Tomlinson was to have sat there, but-Mr. Pendleton deliberate- ly took possession of the place. As « result the dinner was the only en- jovable one I ever had eaten with Arthur's friends. Every one present noticed the change in me, but no one apparently suspectéd its cause. Mrs, Tomlinson confided to me after dinney that I was looking extremely well. Evelyn, with her usual good nature, told me she had never seen me lovelier, while Mre. Edwards pat- ted my hand In motherly fashion and declared that I had the most beauti- ful color she ever had beheld, Arthur was plainly mystified. He had grown accustomed to seeing me only partly conceal my ill temper when his friends were dining with us He seemingly did not connect Mr. Pendleton's presence with my changed mood, All that he knew was that I was gayer, brighter and happier than I had been in many a day. But the change did not seem to please him, He looked at me sev- eral times as though wondering what had happened to me. He could not make it out, and as no one volunteer- ed to enlighten him he puzzled him- at odd intervals during the en- tire evening. But he did not neglect Evelyn. It had become second nature for them o pair off after dinner, and this evening was no exception, Other 'regulars' of the party alse had ac- cepted it as the usual order of things, and none of them saw anything ev- traordinary about it, But as the evening passed and he and Evelyn preserved their inseparable relations, Mr. Pendleton began to cast inquir- ing glances in their direction. Nor did it require many glances for him to get the real situation. Careful and tactful as he was to keep his observations to himself, I realized that he had learned more of my affairs than I would have liked any stranger to know. My face flushed with shame, but a sudden determination came to me to brazen the matter to the end. Bringing all my senses into play, I threw myself recklessly into the atmosphere of comradeship which Mr. Pendleton y the ee ESS a a had created, and it was not long be- fore the others were shyly observing (Continued from Page 7.)

"I heard Mrs wards in an undertone to Mrs. Tomlinson, 1 would have liked the compliment more if the "this eve- ning'"' had not qualified it, but even as it was I accepted it with comfort. "Very handsome," was Mrs. Tom- linson's pompous remark. I looked across at Evelyn, whose exotic beauty has always frightened me, and then glanced at my own re- flection in a mirror opposite me. For the first time since I had met Miss Phillips I was not jealous of her. Even allowing for my own vanity, I felt that I might attract as many eyes as she could. "f spoke jokingly just now to Mr. Tomlinson about joining the club," My. Pendleton. was saying. "Of course, he did not understand me at tirst, but he finally was compelled to give his assent, He thinks I am a rake and a roue, and he probably will you so directly or indirectly be- fore long." "Why should he speak ill of you?" "It is the nature of the brute. He always led such a methodical life himself that he thinks any one less methodical than he must be funda- mentally wrong." "I should think his respect for your uncle, Mr, Henderson, would make him be more considerate." "It does, but only on the surface. He cherishes a very strong contempt and dislike for me in secret, and I imagine he has tried many times to convert my uncle to his view, How- ever, Uncle Edward has a mind of his own." "I think he has judging by what 1 have heard of him, He must be a very wonderful man," 'He is, and to me the most won- derful thing about him has been his kindness to me. He has cared for me ever since my parents died, which was when I was very young, He is not the sort of man who could be associated with the gentler emotions, but I believe he really likes me." Mr. Phillips rose and came toward us. "My daughter and I would like say to see more of you, Mr. Pendleton," "We hope you will become and eve- he said. a member of our little group join us at dinner Wednesday ning." Mr, Pendeltén accepted with alac- rity. "There now!' he exclaimed, when Mr. Phillips had turned away. *T am almost initiated already." "By no means," 1 replied. "You are merely on trial, When the per- fod of probation is over we will de- cide your fate, Until then, be on your good behavior." "Never fear!" he laughed. "I may have to turn hypocrite to be well behaved, byt even so/1 shall watch my p's and (Xs as never man watched them before. I want to qualify." When they were gone, Arthur, pre- serving an unaccustomed silence, ac- companied me to the door of my bed- room. "You seemed to enjoy yourself un- commonly much this evening, Rox- ane," he said. "Yes," 1 replied. "Mr. Pendleton added much to the occasion, didn'i he?" "Yes," said Arthur, absently. (To Be Continued.)

And now we can make a nightgown in a few hours, with only 1 saving touch of band work, and yet produce something that is charmingly dainty. Sheer materials, of course, which are always used nowadays for night- gowns, bave much to do with this change. The fact, too, that night gown patterns now almost invariably show short sleeves and open necks also has much to do with their dainti- ness, The nightgown with an empire waist lise is a favorite juft now, and deservedly for the 'Yong, full lines of the skirt are most becoming. Some sort of wide collar, too, is al- ways becaming, but it wrinkles very easily in a nightgown. Reveres at the frout are shown in some of the newer patterns, and those give softness and fulness and are not so easily wrinkled as a collar. Much variety can be giv- en by the use of slashed and puffed sleeves, and the use of cuffs of various sorts Is also worth trying. Batiste is a very good material for nightgowns, especially in colors. The pale pink and blue shades of this ma- terial, which can be had for about 20 cents & yard, are especially attractive Nainsook in a soft quality is also a good material. Figured dimity, too, can be used, and this seasou much figured cotton crape of soft quality and dainty design has been used for pretty and durable nightgowns. The use of much entre deux in. the seams of fine nightgowns is a dainty touch, and especially in the night- gown which shows much hand work is this method of finishing seams advis- able. Hand embroidery can also be set into a nightgown with entre deux. In this way fine hand embroidered yokes and panels can be used. The rolled hem that is so much seen nowadays--in handkerchiefs and fine blouses--can be utilized in the night- gown. The hem is finely rolled and is then whipped with thread of color, first in ome direction and then in the is 80, other, forming a sort of cross stitch finish. A pretty finish for a white night- gown is a binding of colored bias folds of muslin. This folded bias finish can be bought both in plain colors and in Sleeves and neck can both be bound in this way and a band of the colored fold can be placed at the line of an empire waist line, to hae ribbon run under it. In the same manner chiffon or geor- gette crape underwear can be finished with ribbon used as binding. SONNY BOY'S GARB. Small Men Delight In This Masculine Attire.
