girls was sauntering along with Peggy, Fashion
Fanny's sister.

Puffery looked, and to her horror saw that the
object of all the comment was her Aunt Mathilda,
who lived in a large old fashioned house near
Peggy’s, and who dressed in the modes of fifty
years ago. '
At first Peggy thought of entering the nearest
ioe eream parlor so that her aunt would not Bee her.
Then she thought better of it. “I don’t care,” she
told herself. ‘‘Aunt Mathilda’s been awfully good
to me.” And running forward she threw her arms
around the little old lady and kissed her heartily,
then she turned and introduced ithe girls to her.
Later she took her aunt to lunch, at the very
smartest restaurant in town and never minded a bit

know when I’ve enjoyed myself so much, l’eggy
dear,” confessed her aunt as she rested for a mo

tion. ‘‘You see I only came down to bring you this
suit which I knitted for you.”
cried out with delight as she looked at
the suit, which was accompanied by a hat and gloves
to match. She kissed her aunt again .'and was glad
that she had not been ashamed of one who loved
her so dearly.
