when Betty saw a young man coming
toward her. Jack Wlnslow bowed,
smiled and stopped. Betty blushed.
"Why, really, Jack, what tempted you

"What tempted Mlsa Betty away from
her chocolates and novels?'
"Mr. Elfland's new picture,"
"Jove, that's just my excuse! Say we
go together.". Jack looked anxiously,
wistfully, at his companion. Miss Bet
ty blushed more deeply.
"Come along," said she. And togeth
er they walked down the street Ar
riving at the art gallery, they hunted
out the much talked of picture.
Several people were standing before
it In silent admiration. The painting
represented a room, seated in the fore
ground of which was the figure of a
girl In a white gown. Her black hair
was parted and arranged in soft, thick
rolls on both sides of her fair, pale
face. In her band she held two roses,
a red rose and a pink one. The trou
bled expression of her face told of per
plexity. A question was to be solved,
but the answer could not be found.
Betty clasped her bands with delight
"Oh," she cried, "bow perfectly beau

she just perfect?"
The young man smiled down upon
the enthusiastic girl at his side,
"She ui beautiful, but not perfect"
"Why not?"
Betty opened her eyes wide with
amazement
"Because," continued the young man,

"Why not? One man might be rich

"Anyhow she should not hesitate for

Jack Wlnalow was watching his com
panion's face. Betty laughed. ' -
"Well," replied she, "perhaps you are
right after all. Here comes Frank
Carlyle." '
A -tall, slender young man walked
leisurely up to Miss Betty's side, and,
bowing slightly to Jack, be turned to
ward the picture.
"Well," remarked je after a mo
ment's silence, "she Is In a fix, isn't
she? Pink or red; It's down to a
choice of a favorite color, it seems to
me."
"Not at all," replied Jack testily.
"Which does she love best?"
"Well" Frank elevated his brows
as though surprised "isn't that about
what I said? She has a chance to se-
doesn't
trouble?"
Betty, who had been silently admir
ing the picture during the conversa
tion, now turned again toward her com
panions. "She is a girl you know?"
"Yes," replied both of the young men
at the same time.
"A girl," continued Betty, "has to
wonder sometimes whether she knows
her own mind or not Here are two
men. Both are kind and attentive to
the girl. Both offer her the best that
he has to give. Both pay her the high
est compliment that a man can pay to
a woman, for each one in turn asks
her to be his wife. Here, on the one
band, are riches, a life with every wish
granted, a mother and father made
comfortable, and a husband who loves
you. If she does not love him, she
respects and admires him. On the
other band are a life of everlasting
economy, a home where there may al
ways be the necessities of life, but
very few of the luxuries; a father and
mother who must continue in their
same circumstances, a little trip now
and then when there chances to be an
excursion, and a husband who loves
you, who denies himself for you and
whom you in your turn love. Which
shall It be?"
Without a moment's hesitation both
of the young men answered, "The man
you love."
Betty was twisting the chain of her
satchel around her finger. She laugh
ed and shook her head when she heard
the answer.

yet at the romantic age."
"Are you?" '
Frank Carlyle looked down Into the
fair, sweet face close beside him. Bet
ty looked at Jack Winslow. He was
frowning. Then, turning ber face once
more toward Frank and looking mis
chievously sideways at Jack, she said,
"Who knows?'
Frank laughed and looked at his
watch.
"Half past 4," said he. "Well, I
must be off. If you were going," look

rTHlay night and the Freeman ball
came at last. Betty stood in-fore bet
mirror looking at her reflection, Tht
white mull gown, n gift rroiu ber aunt
who rarely gave her uiet-e unythlni
worth mentioning, was very becoming
to the girl, She Imd arranged her hair
after the style of Mr. Klfland's fameus
picture, and she smiled as she looked
at the change it made In her appear
ance. "If I weren't quite so pink and round
t might look something like her, but
she was pale and sad. Somehow I am
not sad. I don't kuow why, bnt I feel
happy, wonderfully happy."
Turning away from the mirror, she
was just about to wrap herself ln ber
cloak when her sister entered the room,
carrying two narrow, white boxes. Bet
ty dropped ber cloak, took the boxes
and, opening one of them, lifted out
deep, rich red rose, fresh and fragrant
proudly drooping Its heavy head and
filling the room with Its odor. Betty ex
amlned the box, but there was no card.
Laying the rose upon the table and
turning to the other box, she lifted
from its depths a long stemmed, half
blown pink rose, delicate and yet won
derfully sweet This rose was also
without a card.
"How strange," murmured the girl.
"that they should both have bad the
same idea
For a moment Betty stood silent The
two roses lay upon the table. Suddenly
she heard ber mother's voice calling to
her that it was time to start. Wrapping
ber cloak about hir, Betty turned and
fan lightly down the stairs. A moment
later the sound of carriage wheels
rumbled along the street,, , ....
. But the roses? There was only one
rose now lying upon the table, - only
one, but its beuvy perfume filled the
whole room, and its heart glowed like a
great ruby.
