He was thinking of the vague report he had heard on wall street that morn- ing that the commercial house of Gren- ory Co. was fast tottering toward bankruptcy. He inquired at once where her father was, as he had not seen him there‘ To her reply that be had resisted all entreaty to come, from great fatigue, he uttered a prolonged ‘Ah,’ and fell into a. reverie. Hugh Ainsley was quite attentive to Miss Lena that night, who looked very queenly in the gay throng, and his at- tentions were receivsd Wlth deep satis- faction to herself. Nor was the less interested Bertha, who had laid no siege to him, overlooked. But he could keep his forebodings to himself till after the fete was over, when if he found no means of extrica- ting himself, he would make 9. clean breast of the whole thing to them. This was a cover to the real reason. His business affairs were daily becom- ing more entangled by means of several heavy failures of parties owing him to a great extent, and all he could see before him was ruin and disgrace. Clara. was an intimate friend of both the girls and she was invited upstairs to see the dresses, which had just been sent home. Their beauty she warmly expatiated on, but Lena would not allow her to leave until she had told her of Bertha’s wonderful-fit of economy. The combined entreatiesv of all the trio Could not induce Mr. Gregory to ac- company them to Mrs. Langdon’s. He pleaded a headache and fatigue. This was the gentleman Lena was bending all her energies to ensnare and bring to her feet before the present season closed. But to the secret chagrin of each be still maintained the same qmet courtli- ness of manner toward them all. He seemed quite as indifferent to 'their heart affairs as he would have been to the pyramids in Egypt. On the day previous to the ball Clara Ainsley called, a. sister of Hugh Ains- ley, who was the fixed centre star around which the feminine luminaries had ambitiously beamed tor the last two seaSOns, each fondly hoping to be the finally favored one. It‘harmonized admirably with her fair blonde complexion, forming a vivid contrast to Lena’s more brilliant style of personal attractiveness and bright, orange colored robe. Bertha’s dress came from the manhun- maker’s hands as beautiful as it could be, and none would ever have suspected it had already been thrice worn unless she had been seen with it on. Lena purchased the new dress and had it made up without- regard to ex- pense, and it was exquisite when done and extremely becoming to the young lady, who had been congratulating her- self on the success she was determined to achieve. “Do just as you prefer ; but I think your father womd give you a. new one if you wished it,” said her mot-her. it is done, it looks antediluviah and musty, I’ll do penance by staying at home,” sald Bertha. “I'm going to have Mme. Leiceister make over my blue gros- grain silk, and you know she 1s a noted genius for re- newing worn ball dresses _, but: it, after “Bertha, what dress have you to wear? You haven’t; any that you’ve nct already worn two or three times, at least, and I desire my daughters to make an elegant appearance as any of their friends on thrs occasion,” said Mrs. Gregory, “I’m perfectly indfi‘erent to the praise or contempt of the fashionable world, for their is neither heart nor sincereity in it. I want no dry goods worshipper for my future liege lord. So you have the field open and clear to yourself.". “Well you are a little goosy; if you will go to the grandest ball of the sea- son in an old made-over ball dress you can do so. And when you see the victory which may, perhaps, be won over a certain gentleman by your elder sister’s more stylish toilet, you will regret your decision in favor of Mme. Noah’s ante‘diluvian costume,” said; Lena. “Pray “inform us how you came to know so much about monetary affairs, my daughter?” said Mrs. Gregory. “I heard papa and Mr. Ainsley talk- ing about business when he was here the other evemng, and he said it was almost an Impossibility to get money at all now,” said Bertha. one now, while money is raise,” replied Bertha. “I don’t think papa is trying to .frighten us at all,” said Bertha. “I think his business d ' him; I’ve noticed for a week that be you didn’t want a. new ball dress?” asked Lena. “Yes.

In years after she learned that Bertha’s “old ball dress” had turned the scale in favor of her, and won Hugh Ainsley. He reasoned that the daugh- ter who would sacrifice her own desires for the sake of lessening the burden weighing upon the shoulders of her father could not fail to make a true wife. After three months and the gay world was invited to their public wed- ding in church. After much coaxing, Lena was prevailed upon to be Bertha’s bridesmaid; but it was bitter disap- pointment to stand in. that place, in- stead of next to the groom. "You shall have three whole months to consider the subject, then I shall demand an unconditional answer,” said Hugh drawing the hands from her face and pressing them to his lips. Ina three 'months their -engagement was gnnounced to the gay world. ‘ “For several years, Miss Bertha, I’ve been searching in the circle of my ac- quaintances fur a noble, true-hearted woman, to ask to become my wife. I have just been fortunate enough to find her, and have now come to ask her if she will hear my name, and share with me my earthly lot.” “Bertha, will you answer me ‘yes?’ ” “Give me time to think, please 5 it is so sudden,” she stammered, covering her face with her hands to conceal her blushes. Ilifidsay, up stairs over N eill’s shoe store. “N 0, Miss Bertha; it is you with whom I have special business," he said at the same time watching the sudden enlargement of her blue eyes when he said business. “I thought it might be one of John’s blunders, and that sister Lena was the onerdesired, ” said Bertha. "Was it I you wisfied to see, Mr. Ainsley?” she asked after saluting him. “I was you, yourself. Why? permit me to inquire.” Lena pouted at this; she had thought; she had made a mistake, and an angry frown clouded her face as Bertha de- scended to the drawing room. Bertha glanced at the card, and saw ‘Hugh Aainsley’ inscribed thereon. “Did you say this was for me, John?” she asked, thinking it must have been intended for Lena. “Yes, ma‘am. He said ‘Misq Bertha,’ replied the servant. ‘ , V"__"J -v- It Adv “ “IUQW’ [ “She is a noble, girl, Clara, and I’m afraid we couldn’t number many like her amongSt that gay assembly at Mrs, Langdon’s. Surely, ‘all is not gold that glitters.’ ” A week after this the footman at the Gregorys brought up a card to the parlor for “Miss Bertha,and the gentle- man is waiting below in the drawing- room.” Then he told henin confidence of the state of Mr. Gregory’s affairs, and the reason which had probably deterred Bertha from the outlay for a new dress, “Is that so, Clara?” he asked. ‘Was she as self-sacrificing as that? But she looked as sweet as a rosebud in her dress If it had been worn three times.” As Clara and Hugh sat at dinner the next day after the ball, discus$ing the costumes brought out there, she related what Lena had told her of Bertha’s stregk of economy.
