"She stood In the doorway, shep herded by Cousin Matija, breathless from pushing through the crowd, and. lit her happiness, painful to look upon. eyes, and her Hpe trembled, and her otherwise wan little face was flushed. She wore a muslin dress, conspicuous ly white, and a stiff little veil coming lo her shoulders. There were five pink paper roses twlstad In her veil, and eleven blight green rose leaves. There were new white cotton gloves upon her hands, and as she stood stating about her, she twisted them together feverishly. It was almost too much for her—you could see the pain of too great emotion In her face and all rite tremor of her form. She was so young—not quits sixteen—and small for her age,, a mere child; and she bad Just been married—endmar- rled to Jt _urgis, of all men—to Jurgls Rukkus, he with the white flower In the button hole of his new black suit; ha with tha mighty shoulders and the giant hands.'' Thus with simple yet beautiful word-painting, the novelist brings one Into Intimate touch with these humble dly ki folk who, hardly knowing what they do, aid tha mercantile ghouls of Pack- Ingtown to poison a nation—perhaps.

He once was a scholar, but the grind and grime of the days In Packlngtown havs given him no opportunity to write love letters for the neighbors, and all he can do now Is to make a speech and sink wearily back Into hla chair. The story continues; "The company pairs off quickly, and the whole room Is soon In motion. Apparently nobody knows how waits, but that Is nothing of any con sequence. There is music, and they dance, each as he pleases, just as be- icy sang. Moat of them prefer fore they the two-etep, especially tha young, with whom It Is the fashion. The older people have dances from home, strange and complicated steps which they execute with grave solemnity. Borne do not dance anything at all, but simply hold each other's bands and allow the undisciplined Joy of motion to express Itself with their feet.

Jurgls and his folks see the bills mounting as the food and drink have lo be replenished, and Jurgls comforting hla ' bride, says merely: "Don’t worry, little one. I will work harder." Perhaps he could work harder. But the man who watched him, as s practi cal overseer, would not believe It. The story, still dealing with the life of the people and wltn tba festivity, con tinues: As tints goes on then Is a variety of drunkenness, among tbs young men es pecially.
