determination to make a career bad

Elisabeth could not turn back. Her
mother bad aeat marked copies to all

felt that ahe must succeed.
She awallowed the lump that came
Into her throat and beaded for the
atreet car. In other daya ahe bad al
ways taken a cab. but now ahe felt
that ahe could not afford the expense.
It waa at the time when tollers were

were crowded to the rails, but she

that separated the two girls domiciled
together.
There was no homelike air about the

dining room found a responsive chill

of the dainty room at home, with its
white dimity hangings and Its great
white bed. If ahe bad listened to Joe
Trenton she would be there tonight,
dreaming of the time when ahe and
Joe would hare a home of their own.
A score of time Joe bad proposed,
but Elizabeth had made the career of
woman her fetich and ahe would not
sacrifice ber freedom. Joe'e laat effort
had been 111 timed, for bo bad spoken
on the night of her graduation, when
the plaudits of the audience atill rang
In her ears and bits of the essay echoed
loud and clear.
"Perhaps when I have found my ca
reer." the girl had promised gently,
"but don't yon aee that to turn back
now upon my own principles would be
false to myself? Others, looking to me
for example, might be tempted to turn
back too."
"What If they did?" argued the man.
"Do yon have to put happiness from
you just to practice what you preach?'
"Of course." ahe cried. "We who
would lead must be prepared to aacrl
dee." In the elation of the moment ahe had
pictured herself a leader of her sex.
She did not hold with the extremists
who argued that woman ahould rote
and rule the nation, but she had given
herself heart and soul to the theory
that a woman bad a right to a career.

Now sb regretted her stand aa ahe

thought that I'd look you op. Let a go
over to th park and get om fresn-

the Century baan't printed.
Elisabeth hurried for her hat, and
presently they were making for the
tiny park near the home. Elizabeth
had seen it only In passing, for there
was no energy left after her day's
search for employment Now the soft
gisssos reminded her of home, snd It

"Tell me about Morton." ahe com

"All In Its turn. Tell me about your

"Not yet" Elizabeth waa glad that
th dark concealed her darning cheeks
"I think I shall hare a position In a
day or two. hut things are very dul'
here just at present."
"They're dull everywhere." waa the
listless coniuieut. "I was lookinr
around a bit today. lon't you think
Bess, that you ought to leavo the Job
to the girls who really need tbetn wbep
there nre so few?"
Elizabeth was startled. Here seemed
to be a chance to get back hotn with
out uppearlug to eurrender.
"What do you tueau? she asked
tensely.
"There are lots more girls than there
are Jobs," he explaiued. "Now. some
or them will have to get left If the

Elizalietb's bauds clasped so tightly
together that her rings bit luto the
soft desh. For the lust two weeks she
had been nerviug herself to admit fail
ure, to go back home and confess that
the city had beaten ber. Joe was of
fering her retreat with honor. It
seemed almost too good to be true.
"Don't you see." argued Trenton,
"that you really owe It to others to de
lay your campaign until the demand
exceeda the supply? It's only fair to
those who need the work."
"Perhaps you are right." assented
Elizabeth, with a show of hesitation
"Of course it Is hard to give up one's
ambition, but I guesa you are right
Joe."
"I know of a job that you could get

some remark to Bailey, and then

made for Schwartz with the club, but
