I Italp Gordon caught tlie hand of the 1 girl at his side in his own. ' !f "What, live in that little town?' : I naked Ethel Mertage disdainfully. 1 ' "Vy, if the town gives us our llv- l J ing we will naturally have to live In i l! -it," replied Ralph, smiling. i "But why do you get your living 1 there? There is plenty of business In I cities," replied Ethel with conviction, 'I "I might suggest to the Scott- Fra- l.f zee Co. that they move their nianu- I facturing plant to a larger place," ' . laughed Ralph. "I am sure they would want fo when 1 told them that if, you objected to living in Fairport." - II "Well. I guess the scotwra;ree o. 1 I is not the only business firm In the pjj world," pouted Ethel, looking archly J f into the glowing face above her. I "But they offer me the most money, r Puss, and money is a necessity for L l such n luMiry-loving little creature as I L you." E "I "But what could we do with money 1 at In a slow little town?" purred the I girl, leaning her head on his shoul- ? H der. 1 LBi Ralph threw back his head and pli laughed aloud. "From what I have Pi' been able to observe of your habits Iffi I should say that you would not find El It difficult to get rid of money even W in a small place." Ira "You know what I mean, Stupid " , She drew away from him. "There M would bo no theater, no opera no big w parties, no " i. "There would be the picture show," fe jil' interrupted Ralph, teasingly. "You I ci' arc -ond of mov'cs-" i, She tossed tho pretty head and B II ignored tho interruption. Rsl1 "There is no use of having lovely HI party dresses with no place to wear Will them," she continued. 1 I "Don't you care enough for me to I give up some of these things in order lo be with me?" asked Ralph, becom- ! Ing serious. !v I "Love in a cottage never exactly 1 t appealed to mo." She looked straight r' into his eyes. "I have an idea I ; would not be very attractive even to vou without my ?ftting." H "Your netting! Why, your setting ! would he vour home." Ralph looked anxiouslv at her. "I had not planned to have your nest a cottage. It there is nothing there to suit I would build a house for you." I "I'd like that." Ethel's face lighted 1 up "And if we were married soon I could begin having my showers and I getting my clothes ready. All the i girls will be envious They are crazy about you." Ethel did not add that the attitude of the girls toward Ralph constituted one of his chief attractions attrac-tions In her eyes. "I ahall go next week," added her lover, after a pause. "So soon? I do not want you to go so jsoon " pouted tho girl. "But I must," The tone was final. She had learned what that tone meant, so said no more. (To be continued.) easily fashion a horaemado copy of It. Make two shallow wooden boxes, just a trifle larger than an ordinary millinery box cover. One with the open face turned down forms tho top, and the other with tho open face turned up forms the bottom of tho wardrobe. These are covered on the outside with chintz and are joined together by five-foot lengths of chintz. That Is, chintz is tacked on all the way around, hanging straight down. The bottom box is heavy enough to make it hang in a perfect square. At the front only the chintz overlaps. Here it Is adjusted with snap clasps and iB trimmed with a binding and two big tassels. To the box on the inside of the top a small clothes pole (made of an ordinary curtain rod) is fastened, and tho clothes are hung to this rod by means of shoulder hangers. The chintz wardrobe may be left hanging out In the room on a bracket brack-et hook from the side wall, or a hook from the ceiling, or if there is a good-sized closet in the room It may be hung on the clothes rod in the closet. In any case It Is an invaluable invalu-able adjunct of the toilet, as it protects pro-tects light dresses from dipping on the floor and covers them from the dust. Party slippers to match the gowns may be kept in tho bottom of the case. |
