"Woll, of nil tho unpropltlous and in
considerate times to ask such n ques
tion!" cried Judith Urnlnard. "No one
but you, Dick Sniulcrson, would hnve
chosen it."
Her tones wero almost wrathful, nnd
Sanderson Hhlftcd his gazo from her
mobile faco to the top of his Btiek.
which ho twirled Idly.
"Tho Idea of asking mo for the
atccuth tlmo to mnrry you Just ns T
was trying to decide whether to bor
row a lemonade Howl nnd glasses from
Mrs. Drake or from tho Bennington
glrlsj"
Judith pursued her troubled way,
with romnnco pushed far into tho back
ground, '
"I guess It had better uo from Mrs,
Drake, because she's right next door,
though the Bennington bowl Is much
huntlHoincr."
Dick SiuulcrHou rose abruptly nud
towered above the girl of Ills heart.
"I think that It in all nonsense, und
I wish that you'd lot your career go to
pot. Ah my wife you can Hlng for
charity, you can run n church choir,
you can teach tho little daughters of
the poor, you can '
"And nil on your money! If you
really loved mo nil these years as you
say you did why did you wait to tell
me until until all our monoy was
gone and I was poor as a church
mouse?" demanded Judith, forgetting
her more present vexations In tho old
grievance.
Dick turned suddenly grave.
"1 wanted you to have your fling. 1
think every girl should. It's wrong to
marry the first tnnu who keeps you
supplied In violets and things. You
may find out that American Beauties
nud another man are prefcrablo after
you'vo been out a year or two. And 1
wanted my wlfo for keeps, not for a
brief honeymoon. I wanted"
Judith rose abruptly.
"1 know It nil by heart, and so I'm
going over to sco Mrs. Drnko about the
bowl and glasses."
'Really, from what I've heard of
critics and writers and other boho-
minus. I should certainly mlvlso n
strong dash of rum In the bowl."
. Ills tone waa light, but behind It lay
conviction, and Judith flushed vividly.
"I might have expected you'd way
something nnsty. Of coursu all tho big
people In music and art are not brand
ed 'drawing room,' but they do thing".
nd, oh, Dick, I want to do something.
I wnnt to show tho world that my od-
ucatlon was not all veneer that tt Is
practical."
Dlck'n eyes softened na they always
did at an appeal from Judith.
"May I conic? I've never Been the
Hons of the mimical menagerie, and I
promise solemnly that 1 will not pro
pose to you until It Is all over."
'That sounds like my old Dick. You
may come and sco the monngcrle nnd
well. 1 won't scold If you propose n.fl-
or It Is nil over."
Judith's world had gapped wjion sin.-
had fled the prosperous New litiglnnd
city after her father's death add es
tablished herself lu Now York as a
teacher of music. It was nil entirely
unnecessary. There wero relatives -and
Dick Sanderson.
The relatives on the whole wero re
lieved, Dick Sandefson spent most of
his tlmo In Now l oil: for tho purpose,
ns he expressed It to himself, of coun
teracting the Influences of studio life.
Judith nnd her mother had n cunning
little npartmcnt In nn eminently re
spectnblo neighborhood, and Judith had
n few very prompt pupils. And now
Bho was giving tho first of a scrlcH of
evenings nt homo. She had met ninny
clover men and women at other "nt
homes' tho season before nnd had
scattered her invitations broadcast.
"You'd letter not como too early,
Dick," sho called nftcr tho persistent
one as ho went down tho narrow ball.
"I do love some 'homey' people to talk
It over with on tho finish."
"All right. I'll hold hack as long hh
I can."
But when Mrs. Drake ciuno In with
the howl nud glasses the rooms wore.
a mass of ferns nnd flowers from
Dick.
"How lovely!" Bho exclaimed. "Flow
ers do give a room such an nlr. It
makes mo feel woiw thnn ever that
wo cannot come tonight. Hut every oth
or Tuesday, have you not?"
Judith nodded her head absently. She
was trying to decide between a plain
or laco centerpiece under the bowl.
And not for worlds would she admit
Unit sho was disappointed. Mr. Drake
was the critic on a prominent paper,
and she wanted to cultJvato critics.
"So sorry," she murmured perfuni'
torlly. "I hopo Mr. Drake Is not III."
"No, but Homo out of town relatives
oro coming, nnd they aro not tho sort
to undeistund our Hllpplng away. Hut
we'll surely como next time. I under
stand that Miss Morton, the new Jhig
llsh violinist, Is to receive with you?"
"Yes; we studied together In Paris."
At 8:30 thoy wero all In Hue, Mrs.
Urnlnard In pearly silk nnd real laco,
Miss Morton oddly English its to cos
tume, delightfully nllvo its to tho pleas
ure of tho evening, and Judith a dream
Jn blnelf not nnd violets, her eye"J
n-glonni with anticipation. Everything
wns typical of Now England and most
unbohemlnn, oven tho Illtlo white cap
ped muld engaged for tho occasion.
Nine o'clock, and tho trio found It
Impossible to keep up conversation.
Not once had the doorbell rung. Nine
thirty, nud tho odor of cut flowcra was
positively oppressive.
"Do you suppose that any one Is
coming," said Judith In n very fnlnt
voice, "at 0:15?"
And Just thou the electric bell buzzed
Joyfully. Euter upon tho bcciio Dick
Bnudersou and nt his heels Hal Dam
tou, tho critic of tho Social Whirl.
"Thought I'd give tho crush a chanco
to subside," exclaimed Dick ns Judith
came forward, and then nt sight of hor
faco his tongue failed him, nnd he
reached forth Ida band Impulsively.
She gave It a trembling clasp, then
wont on to greet Darnton.
No ono could tell afterward Just how
It did happen, but Ilnl Darnton cer
tainly laughed first nud at something
Dick Bald.
"Oh, my dear Miss Urnlnard," ho ex
claimed between gales of laughter,
"you don't know your Now York yotl
Nothing starts so early In tho Reason.
You aro about n month too early - nud,
well, you'vo got to show 'em."
And no one knew Just why, but Ju
dlth told him nil her little succciisci
nnd failures, and he proved such a
sympathetic person thnt sho Qnnlly
walled: ';i would not mlud nt nfh only
thnt caustic Mr. Drake lives next door,
nnd of courso he'll know. It is bo
deathly quiet herb"
Hal Dnhiton did not Intigh this time
How often had ho watched the strug
gle of other Judiths! Hut Dick Sander
son spiting to his feet and remarked
with decision: "This Is whero we make
a noise like success. Judith, I'm golug
out Into the hnll nud glvo that boll an
other ring. Mrs. Drnko will hear thnt,
and then wo will rattlo glasses, and
Miss Morton will tlddtc, and you will
piny the piano, nud we will applaud
nud well, I know that Darnton hero
will like your brand of lemonade."
Tho audacity of the plan swept all
objections aside. Sotuetlnies Sander
son rang the bell and sometimes Darn
ton. The little maid ran up nud down
the hall, nnd the glares clicked, nud
MI is Morton played, and D.irnton wing
rollicking ( Ionium student rougs thnt
none had ever dreamed he knew, and
Mrs. nrnlnard laughed until the tcara
threatened to fall on her line old lacca.
And when it was all over and not an
other soul had put In uppenraueo Darn
ton carried Miss Morton off in a cab
and Mrs. Urnlnard retired to lay away
(he dear old pearl silk gown. The lit
tle maid wont downstairs to whero her
young man was walling to tnko her
home, and Jtidlth and Dick stood alone
in the flower banked room. Then upon
the midden qutct fell a sound of muf
fled tapping. Judith ran to tho door.
Thero wns n whispered conversation,
and very soon Dick snw her hand out
something on n tray. She came back
with eyes shining.
"It wns Mrs. Drake. Sho said Bho
heard us having bucIi n good time, nnd
though sho nnd Mr. Drake did not dnre
leave their guests now thnt every one
had gone sho Just simply had to beg
some of the lemonade. She had heard
those glasses clicking nnd tho music
through the wall."
Dick's eyes wero dancing, hut Ju
dith's wero dowy with n new and ten
dor light.
"Oh, Dick, you nro simply wonder
ful. She thinks tt was n huge success
-and und well, yon know what- I
promised this afternoon. You enn"
Dick gripped her hands.
"Will you. Judith-will you, dear?"
"Yea, Dick, and wo'll nnnounco It nt

Plated Tin Spoons.
Hero Is one' way of making Bpoons,
the process described being used in
the manufacture of ono variety of tin
plated upooiiH.
in its original form the material
from which theso Hpoons nro mado
comes In lung thin strips of steel rolled
to a uniform thickness. The strips nru
twelve or fifteen feet in longth and
of a width Hulilclent for the length of
the spoon to be made. Thcsu strips
nro fed Into n cutting mnchlue. which
cuts oil pieces, each of sulllclent size
for making a spoon, these being sim
ply so many mnull, flat pieces of sheet
steel.
Then these blanks aro put through a
grader, a mnchlne with powerful tolls,
which so works the metal as to mako
It thinner in those pnrtu of the blank
thnt aro to form the bowl nud the
handle of tho spoon nud thicker In the
middle of the length of the blank
from which the shank of the spoon
will be made, ho that It will be the bet
ter able to bear tho bending strain that
will bo put upon the spoon In use.
From tho gruder the blank goes Into
a drop press, which cuts It Into tlw
outline form of a spoon, though from
this press It comcn out still flat.
Then lu another press the bowl of
tho spoon Ih formed, nud then lu still
another the handle, nnd o at last
you lmvo the spoon lu Its complcto

plated by dipping It In molten tin.
