tun hnd dreamed deliclnusly nnd
5nved fruu'nlly.' It wns on her seven
teenth birthday that Aunt Clnrlndn
had written to Jlrs. Mertou: "Let the
child come. I have made her n bnth
'in? suit and she can put in the whole
month If you can spare her that long."
There was n full fortnight for Orn
to make her preparations. She hnd
thirty-two dollars nnd a ready mnde
dress wnlst nnd wrnp. One day she
was seated on the porch sewing on
n home made wrapper, when a queer,
keen-eyed little man came up to the
garden path carrying a peddler's pack,
lie placed this on a step and nn
nounced : "Some rare bargains, would
like to show the youitg lady."
"lt' not trinkets or cheap stuff,
lady," ho explained. "It's something
choice nnd cheap oh. so cheap I I
have a brother In trouble. lie can
not pay his bills nnd If I do not get
cnh quickly he will be sold out. I
will show you whnt 1 linvo to sacri
fice." -
Ora's eyes glowed ns the man
slipped n strap and spread out the
gorgeous, tempting coiiKmts of the
pack. It was an extraordinary dis
play. It was no notion counter lay
out, but two perfect ladles' suits, hats,
gloves and scarfs.
"I'm going to tell you the truth,
lady," spoke the peddler. "These
goods are not new, although they were
never worn. Here Is the truth about
them. They belonged to a leading
nctress. Iler compnny got on the
roek and the law seized her belong
lrigs. I bought them cheap. "I'm go
lug to give you a bargain. Tnke your
pick of one Inyout for twenty-flvu dol
lars" Ora was so excited nt this offer that
she could hardly speak. Trembling,
',she looked over the nrticfas In the
pack, selected a complete outfit, paid
the man his price and every time af
ter that when she thought of the won
derful Investment she had mnde she
experienced a thrill of pride and
pleasure.
Orn got to her aunt's, a hnppy, hope
ful girl. Two mornings later she ar
rayed herself In her 'best. The dress,
of a peeulnr purpllhh tint, the neat,
but expensive looking hat, the light,
lleecy shoulder scarf, her mirror told
her, presented nn elegance and tnstl
nuss which became her grandly. She
was conscious that she was admired
as she strolled downthe beach. She
sat down upon nn upturned boat and
reveled In n reverie of perfect ojn-
tentment nnd peace.
"Why, Mabel! got here all right,
did you?" and a shadow mnde Ora
Start. Then the speaker leaned over,
kissed her squarely upon the lips nnd
thendrcw bade, breathless.
"The mischief! the dress deceived
me dear young lady," continued the
intruder, young, handsome, but pal
pably embarrassed, but Oru sprung-'to
her feet with dashing eyes.
"How dare you!" she cried, nnd
hurried nwny, the tears filling her
eys from sheer vexation. The young
man attempted to overtake, her, plead
ing, expostulating Incoherently, but
Ora fairly ran nnd gained her aunt's
homo' overcome with the Insolence of
n perfect stranger.
She did not venture to the beach for
two d-ijg after that. Then sho went
to the board walk, where she could
seek protection, If again nffrontcd,
when a man In soml-unlform np
proached her.
"You will pardon me, miss," ho
said, "but you will have to nccompnny
mo to the police station. A lady Just
pointed you out as wearing some nt
tire stolen from her trunk n week ago.
The dress, particularly, which Is pre
cisely like the one sho now wears,
gives color to her claim."
Orn stood aghast. She felt as If she
would faint- on the spot. Just then n
handsome lady about her own slzo
approached. "Ollleer," she said, "I
positively Identify those nrtlcles as
those stolen from me," nnd was
Joined by n young man who looked
at Ora nnd spoko suddenly.
"Sister, this Is somo great mistake!
This Is the young lady I told you
about, whom I greeted as yourself.
Look, she is terribly distressed. Ofll
cer, allow us to speak with the young
lady apart," and ha took the nrm of
tjie wavering and overcom'o Ora nnd
led her to n bench.
It did not talnj long for light to
shine on darknes Orn told her
hlmplo, truthful story. Miss Kdna
Dauvers was full of regret, and her
brother wore the apologetic face of
a man eager to atono for his e?pcclnl
error. They Insisted on Orn coming
to their hotel, and the full reparation
of slncero regret and kindly Interest
told how they believed In their Inno
cenpe. "The ilrbt kiss I stole," observed
Ronald Dnnvers, a week later to Ora.
