"1 don't teo thatnt nil, " returned Betty quietly U fho drew away from' her i i mpanlon. "I am suro that if if you" Shu j lUied tentatively. "You dou't mean to say that you ex pi 1 1 me to tell Ned Murkham that 1 yon'vt jilted him?" "I certainly don't expect yon to pnt i it in that way," replied Miss Oakhnrst, ! with a little laugh, "but I am iuite oertain that you would explain it to til -1 our fellow much better than any ono tlso. "Explain!" tx- laimid Nt ra, impa tiently. "I don't know that there's anything to explain except that you'vo put youi self and mo in B most ridicu lous position." "Nora!" "I wish I'd BeVi r had anything to do with it. I never felt BO uucMiifortahlo in my life a 1 have done since yon dragged mo into this precious scheme of yours.

"So it has," remarked Betty sotto voce. "It's onlv a qui ttion of mint of view." Norn Mashed an indignant look at lit r "I think you might be serious now, I and at hast pn tend that you're ashamed ' of yourself.
