'1 heir hmi-. s were much alike, but It tuut he cmfe. d their daughters were very unlike Oraee Hlglow was as s'wivt nmi lovtlv a Rlrl as one would wish to Mie had Dot the least traennfntTectiitio-i in her limn ner, hut lnston.1 a snvolr fiitru which was remarkable In nun so young, and which. Delia lirown tried In vuln to Imitate. j It Is said that In Huston one mut f.. ess the threw It's to enter s clcty, and if Hella, In her ardent desire to enter society, had mistaken thn letu-r for a 11, certainiy the Hrowns wero well iul)i al f. r social function!, whero the hostess Issues "mhi cards"to the elite '-Ml ien)U." Hella hated tlraco Hlglow, and she could not help It. They had both attended the same fushlonabhi school, and, us It hap pened, the prcvloiii .Inn,, both girls hud gonoover to Harvard "class dnv" to nt- tend n spread given by Jack HoUlster, n very handsonie, popular senior, and Imth girls had fallen desperately In lovo with lit in. Mnco then he had been a fn-.iicnt visitor at lioth hous-s, but he tciilly seemed to pn-fcr Grace, In splto of all H.-ila could do or say. In vuln sho wore her hand toincst gowns and drove the "smartest turnout" on the boulevard. It was ter ribly aggravating toher. And she k new It wastiriico's fault. If tho lllglows would only move away, or fall ! How Delia did wish that they might fail! Mr. Hlglow was a bunker, and Hella knew that even banking was not so sure as brewing. So sho waited. Ono bright morning In February H. Ua dnshed into her mother's room, almost breathless with excitement, and there was a ring of Joyful satisfaction In her voice as sho cried: "Oh, ma, tho lllglows hnve really failed! I have just seen their house maid, and she said all the servants would havo to go, and Mr. and Mrs. Hlglow have already left theelty. And Ma lirown, what do you think lirnco Is going to do' Uo out to ltnxbury and do housework niul learn to cook! I guess the won't expect to marry Jack Holllstcr now! Learning to cook!" sneered H.lla, and theu she Is-gnn to laugh. "I am glad," sho continued, "that 1 did not mall thoso Invitations to my party lust night, for I had one address ed to her. I guess tho only daughter of a millionaire need not Invito paupers to her juirty. I never did like her anyway, even u llttlo bit! It Is a wonder they have kept up so long. Learning to cook! Well, I guess sho Is ns well lilted for that as any thing." Then Hella In pan to plan for her party. Finally sho had completed her list, and sho said to her mother: "Mamma, dear, you w ill let mo wear your diamond necklace to the imrfy, won't you? I di so want Jack Holllstcr to know wo have things worth having I" In two or th n o day It was nil over tlie town that tho lllglows had failed, and, of course, as It wag Intended It should, It reached tlio earn of tho young man who was really In lovo with iweet Graco Hlg low. When he henrd that Grace had gotio out to ltnxbury to do housework, ho mild: "Sho Is u bravo, llttlo girl, and I love her mora than ever! Tho housework will not hurt her. My mother can do housework and cook, and what a grand, noblo wom an my dear mother Is. I will hunt tho llt tlo cook up!" Tho evening of the party came, nnd Delia was very happy, as she stKd with her mother in the largo drawing room against a background of beautiful potted plants and stately ferns, gorgeously dressed nnd radiant with her mother's diamonds. Her heart rose and fell as oach different black coat caino Into her presence, nnd yet tho ono for whom sho had trono to iilllh!s ex pense nnd trouble did not come. Where was hof Ho hnd gonoout to Roxbury and found tho llttlo cottage whero tiraen Hlglow was staying with her aunt. Ho found Grace In tho kitchen getting supper, and a prettier sight ho had nuver sivn. There was tho arlstocratlo Miss Hlglow, with the sleeves of her pretty gown tucked up, showing her round, beautiful nrmg and In r hands In a pan Of flour, making biscuits for tea, "nil alono," whllo besldo her sat the dearest old lady, whom sho introduced to him as "my aunt." "How do you do, Mr. Hollister?" Grace said, with a roguish twinkle In her lovely eyes. "As you aro kind enough to coino out hero to sco me, I urn going to ask you to remain to tea that is," sho contlniHil, "If you will sit hens and talk to mo whllo I finish tho nipper." Sho conclud.sl by saying, "You we, auntie's kitchen is not like tho ones In the big, fashionable houses, and wo really onjoy sitting out here. " At last tea was ready, Hint Juek Holllstcr sat down with Grace and heraunt mid en joyed t oo best cooked supper he had had for a long time. lie decided right then nnd there that this win tho girl forlilin. go, after supper was over nnd auntie had gono op stairs nnd Margaret, tho only servant, waa washing tho dishes. Jack and Graco went into tho parlor, and the young man went straight to tho point and tac kled tho business ho had on Ms mind nnd asked her to inurry him. As It did not tako Iteliecca long to mako up her mind In the ancient, primitive times to consent to bo tho wife of Isaac because sho loved him, so It was here. When Jack mid, "I lovo you all tho let ter, my darling, now you uro poor," she smiled nd answered hlin thus: "Ah, you, too, I.nvo hoard that ridiculous st-iry, which I Bin suro originated with Delia Drown. Papa has not failed.

In early Juno sho received a card that made her very angry and mus.nl her many tears. It was an invitation to a wddlng at high noon, .-hedii iil-d to attend It, however, for, as sho told her mother, "it w.n ouo of those swell alTsirs that ono could not afford to miss." boston Post "No; I .mi u, t in i l..,i ;i !..,c i v-.!i you, hut 1 hi i '.m -v.. wnli .uii ' lovo of iiw!" j "IK.n't you understand;'' be went on gloomily.

Tho baronet sh.K.k hands with a little patronising nod, and tho footman closed the door upon the artist. flare Darton would never marry him. And what presumption ever to havo aspired to her! What was ho but a poor, unknown nrtist, to whom the most beautiful, ac complished and wealthy heiress had Isvn kind during an intoxicating season In Italy, wh. re. with tho usual uni-oiiven-ttonaliiy of l-ngll-li folk nhroad, they luiil formed an Intiniat" a. .;i:.iln!ai'ee itul she had given hi: i n frank frh .i.
