The members of the steering committee had afterward whispered It about that the resolution was to die in the senate. Then every one, especially the women of Illinois, had promptly forgotten the measure. As Vernon thought over It all he pieked up the rose again, then laid It down, and idly picked up the card.

Antes was known to be a crank; he was referred to aa Doc" Ames, usual ly aa Old Doc" Ames. He had introduced more strange bills and resoluat that sestions than any sion ; bills to curb tbe homeopathists, bills to annihilate Eugll.ih sparrows, bills to prohibit cigarettes, bill to cur tail the liquor traffic, and now this resolution providing for tbe submission of an amendment to tbe constitution that would extend the electoral franchise to women. Hia other measures bad received little consideration; be never got any of r and Irreclaimable opportunity when he reflected that he had lived for yeara near this woman lawyer and yet uever had aeen her once In all that time. When Miss Greene turned to look him In the face again, after the othera were gone, Vernon grew suddenly bhshful, like a big boy. He felt hia fare flame hotly. He had been medispeech ; he tating some drawing-roobad already turned in hla mind a pretty sentence in which there waa a discreet reference to Portia; Vernon was JuBt at. the age for classical allusions.

I have not often appeared in court; In fact I prefer not to do ao; I am well, juat a little tlffiid In that part of the work." The femininity of it touched him. He might have told her that he did not often appear In court himself, bnt he waa new enough at the bar to have to practice the dissimulation of tha young professional man. He indulged himself In the temptation to allow her to go undeceived, though with a pang he remembered that her practice, from all that he had beard, must be much more lucrative than hla Something ol the pretty embarrassment she felt before courts and Juries waa evidently on her in this her first appearance In the senate, but ahe put it away; her breast rose with the deep breath of resolution ahe drew, and she straightened to look him once more In th eyee.
