There were times even when she was that little girl when she had crav- ed the tonle of the world's uglier moods, burned to see It at its fiercest, as indifferent to human beings as if they were ants. This may have been mere youth and inexperience or It may have been be- cause she was surfeited with beauty. Was not her home the most Imposing in Farville? Inside the house an exqul- site quiet reigned, a sort of hallowed stillness that made her want to shout and whoop in defiance, Her sisters were "the beautiful King girls." She herself, as a chance re- mark had informed her, "the plain At the moment she had felt deep. was one. ly mortified. She hadn't supposed it was so bad as all that.

The jostling and crowding, the teem- {ng exhibits that overran counters and were forever falling to the floor, the near silk, near silver and near gold commodities that filled the place so lavishly, far from offending her taste, stirred her fancy oddly, and she saun- tered up and down the long alsles alive with that suppressed excitement that is one of the keenest emotions existence any | 1ife had to offer and indifferent to the | buffetings of the crowd which seemed [to her delightfully good natured if & | little bit lacking in form.

Then, with some con- siernation, he realized that the world is very full of people, a fact that for the past weeks had escaped him ene tirely, He had thought of it as peo pled exclusively like the garden of Eden--simply jherself and him.

His voice didd't sound natural to him- | "Parville" he answered absently, and the other took courage "That's 8 mere face in the crowd," le tossed off alrily. "Found it ln a Sixth avenue (cpartment store." Kendry showed his disbellef. "If they bave that sort in department stores," he observed, "I think I'll go to one of them to get me a wife."
