New Yoke, Dim. -...—Almost any
woman can manago to look attractive
and well dressed in the street, bat it is
not overy one who can or does take the
pains to look well at homo. Itisnno
thing to liavo mi outdoor dress with all
its conoomitants arid to put tho wholo
ontfiton at once and take it off again
on onlcring the house, and another to
keep up a supply of neat nnd dainty
homo frocks. Tho first is comparatively
easy and too often done. Tho second re
quires aovoral attributes in tho woman.
Hlie must bo neat by nature, refined and
artlstio through teaching and instinct,
end she must respect horsclf and her
homo life. Given all thoao things, tho
woman will alwaysboawoet and dninty

All this sago reflection wa* invited
tiy a pretty sight that accidontallycaino

mother sitting by the sido of bar littlo
daughter. Her husband is a physician,
and her income is not overabundant,
but how fow women with plenty of
money would liavo looked as dainty and
sweet as siio did, takon unawares! Sho

fect Now, why cannot all womou dress
as candidly as that?
Her littlo girl had a silvor gray sorgo,
made with a yoko and braided with
black Boutnohd. Tho skirt was plainly
hemmed, but tho littlo frook was as at
tractive in its simplicity .as tho awoet
littlo woarer. With all tho riohosfc frocks
in tho country no child' can bo well
dressod without tho stamp of nontness.
When neatness nnd proper stylo aro ob
served in making olotlios, tho result is
tho best dressing.
I know 0110 Indy who is so careless
that slio will put ouo dross on over an
other when sho goes out Hho does not
do it on purpose, hut alto forgoU. Hho

know her garments cost much. It is not
tho cost or quality, but tho oaro and
stylo that mako the woman a pleasure
to strangers and n treasure at home.
Now, I know an ultra foeidonabln
lady whoso olothea come from afar. Hlio

tend* to prnpOKO to you tonight.”
‘•But, mother, hois bo much older than
I am.”
“Nonsense, child! His age at the very
outfldo cannot bo more than nix or eight
und thirty.”
“And I om only 18, and beside*”-—
“Betides whnt?”
•‘Oh, nothing!”
“Do you mean there 1b some one yon
like better? I am too fond of you, darling,
to try to force a husband upon you, but
I must say that Joroea Harwood has al
ways shown himself to ties very model
gentleman and well endowed with esti
mable qualities that too many of tho
young men of tho present day unfortu
nately look."
“Yes.”
“And his flnanolal position Is of Indis
putable firmness. Ho has not only the
will but the means to provide the com
forts nnd oven tho luxuries of a homo for
Ills wife.”
“Oh, yew, mother!”
“Well, child, if your heart docs not
draw you to him, 1 will not pn«s you, but
1 think ho is n man any woman might
feel proud of, and in my marrying days
I”—
“Why do you talk of your marrying
days ns though they wero over, mother?
Do you never think of marrying again?”
‘My dnrllug, you forgot my ago.”
‘Why, dear mother, you talk ns If you
worn a Methuselah. You aro not so very
old.”
“I shall be 41 in a fow months, Elslo.”
Tho girl laughed brightly. “And you
look hardly 81. You”—
Whatever else sho may have boon con
templating saying was out off by tho an
nouncement of “Mr. James Harwood,” a
gentleman who was a short timo following
his natno and greeted the two ladles rath
er nervously as ho entered. Ho was a tall,
well shaped man, with a good natOml
face, but whoso hair was getting a littlo,
scanty on tho top, Indicating that he had
passed tho meridian of youth.
Ho sat down and for a littlo while tried
to maintain his shero in a general conver
sation, but ho seemed uncomfortable nnd
talked In a somewhat preoccupied manner,
ns though something were weighing on
his mind.
At last Mrs. Singleton, thinking It pol
itic to Jeavo tho two together, inodo some
excuse to go out and rose from her seat.
Sbo had reached tho door whon James
Harwood, with an evident effort, loaned
forward In his chair nnd suld quickly,
“Please don’t go, Mm. Blngleton.” She
stopped on tho point of leaving the room
und camo back. She designed that he de
sired her consent first and thoroughly ap
proved of tho straightforward course.
Looking at Ulsio, she said gently:
"X wish, darling, you would answoi
those cards for mo that aro in tho draw
ing room. 1 fool a little knocked up after
my drive.”
Without requiring a second bidding tho
girl doparied lightly on hor errand, leav
ing her mother nlono with their visitor.
Mrs. Blngbton was sitting on a low
sofa, and James Harwood left his chair and
went to sit beside her, his norvousness be
coming more marked as -ho did so. Ho
looked straight In front of him ns ho said:
“Mrs. Blngleton, I wlshod—rnthor—to
speak to you upon a subject. I trust you
will bear with mo a moment whllo I”—
Tho Indy notlood his agitation and was
sorry for him. Sho tried to help him out.
“I think I know to what you are allud*.
lug. * I have been expecting this, James—
you will let me call you * James?'—for
sumo time. Please go on.”
“It Is kind of you to say that. It makee
what I have to sny much cosier.” Ho
clasped one of his kneos with both hands
and for tho first time looked straight Into
his companion's face. “I have recently
had thoughts, my donr Mrs. Blngleton—
though I feel much diffidence in telling
you—I liavo lately been contemplating
marriage.”
“That Is exactly what I expected you to
say, and I think, at your ago and In your
position It Is a vory proper courso to
take.”
“Then may I take it? May I be bo bold
ar to nssumo—that you aro not averse—in
fact, that you consent?"
“That is what 1 Intended to convey. X
said Just now that I had been a little pre
pared for this, nnd I am vory glad that
you have given mo tho opportunity of say
ing—as I truly think—that no woman
oould wish to find a better husband.” Hho
looked into his face with a quloftunlle as
she concluded.
For a moment Harwood shuffled nerv*
ouHly on his seat; then, moving closer to
hor, he took her hand. Mrs. Hlngletou
looked surprlsod, but she let It remain.
“Then, as everything Is so satisfactorily
settled,’* be said awkwardly, “would you
mind If I—that le—It seems perhaps a lit
tle strange at first—but nmy I klas you?”
Mrs. Singleton was more than ever tak
en aback at this unexpected request, and a
flush came over her face. Then she
thought that as a prospective son-in-law
his request was perhaps not altogether
unreasonable, and she turned her fooe to
his, smiling rather consciously as she re
plied:
“Oh, well, I suppose you may, as I am
to bo your mother.”
“My mother 1“
“Yes; X shall be your mother, shan’t I,
If you marry Elsie?”
“Marry KLlcl * But 1 want to marry
youl”
Mrs. Blngleton jumped away from Mm
to the other end of the sofa, and her face
(lushed scarlet as his meaning burst upon
her.
There was sllcnoe between them for a
few minutes. Mrs. Singleton's eyes wore
bent upon the ground, and she looked al-
luqpt like a young girl who had listened to
her first declaration of love as the blush
on hor check grow deeper and deeper and
then luoTed downward till It oovered the
whlteuocs of her neck. At laat the spoke:
“And you have been meaning me all
thta time?"
»Harwood, now that he mm the prise he
thought he had won in dange/ of slipping
from him, oaiuo out of his shell and sur
prised himself by the fervor of his own
words.
“Yes, it la you that I love, you that I
have hoped—and then hardly dared to
hope—might love me a little In return and
give me yourself as an earnest to fill up
the emptiness in ray life and In my heart.
Oh, do not take the content away that I
thought I had hardly won I”
For a moment after he had ceaard
speaking she did not move. Than she
turned her (ace up to his, with her eyes
shining, brimful with a joy that she could
not hide.
“James!”
“ Yee.”
“You may still klas ma"—Million.
