It such 1\ good Idea to start with , but
now It doesn't seem to have worked
out very well. "
"What Is It ? "
"H's Mr. Peters , " she. said , turning
her face away aud looldng out dream.

"Still 1\11' . Peters ? " I asked with a
little surprlsc. "It has been Mr. Pe. I
torn for qulto a long tlmo , "
"I don't Imow If 1 have told you
that ho has nsleed mo to marry him , "
she went on after a pause.
"Yes , " I said , "soveral times. "
" 1 wish people wouldn't asle mo to

"Thoro I I not much choice , " I ob.

"Why did you do that ? It would

he suggested It , till the end or the

her mind a dozen times in a weok.
"No , " she answoretl sorlously. "I
sent the I\nswer at once because I
hate to huvo a thing of that sort

"If you have alreatly sent your an.

What was It ? " I repented with a lit.
tlo Impatience , "Ye ! : ! , or no ? "
"I don't Imow , " she saM , gently ;
"that's just whc'o the trouble 1s. "
"Cynthia ! " I cried sharply. "Do you

"Cynthia , " I said slowly , "I think

"Not at all , " she retorted briskly :

murmurClI.
1 could think of no surgestlon , and
sllenco fell for n moment or two.
" , Just think of the unpleasantness
of It , lIonor , " she remarked. " 1 have
had n telegram to say ho is comlne
at three o'clock. "
"And what llro you going to do ? "
There was a long pauBo.
"I thought of going down to see
Mrs , 1\Ialoney's new buby abollt then , "
she said at last.
I half rose to my feet In Indlgna.
tlon , and then aat down again.
"And leave mo , I suppose , to Inter.

Cynthln , " I Gal solemnly , "I am not
going to o It. "
"Ilonor , " she snld Insinuatingly ,
"just think how horribly unpleasant
It would bo "tor mo to meet him , not
having II notion as to which letter I
put In the post. Whe eas you cOllld

whether I said Yes' or 'No. ' "
" 1 am not going to help YOII , " I said ,

"I nm sure you will when you think
of It I Honor , dear , " she s id entreat-
Ingly. ' 'It Is not much I am asking
you to do. Just to see Mr. Peters ,
Instead of me. Then I shall Imow
how to meet him , and shan't bo taken
abacle. "
lt was eloso upon three o'clock , and
a servant came to tell mo that Mr.
Peters was In the drawlng.room , and
that Cynthia could not bo found.
As the interview had been forced
on mo I dotermlned to make the best
ot It.
Cynthia taced mo quite placidly on
her return.
"Well ? " she said Interrogatively.
"did you see him ? "
"Yea , I saw him , " I answered
curtly.
"And which letter was it I put in
the mnll ? "
"I have no more notion than you
have. "
Cynthia opened her eyes.
"You menn to toll me you tnlked
to him for half an hour and couldn't
find out that much ! \Veren't there
any symptoms ? "
"What do you mean by 'aymp.
toms ? ' " ,
"Wben ho came into the room did
he look jUbilant-as if ho would IIko
to stand on his head ? Oh did he
look as If ho hadn't shaved { or n
week , and never meant to shave
again ? DId : rou ask him if he was
happy ? "
"No ! " I cried , exasperated , "nor die } .
I llsk him If he was good : nor how old
he was : nor whether ho dyes his haIr"
nor 1\ny other impertlnont ques.
tion. "
"Then it se ms to me it has ull
got to be done over again , and wo are
no further than wo were before , " she
said dismally , rising from her chair
nnd walking to the window ,
"I am afraid you will have to face
him yoursl'lf the next time , Cynthia , "
I replied gently.
"Supposo I were to throw myself
on his mercy , " she aald hopefully ,
turning round acter "
a pause-"tell
him the w.holo . truth , and say I had
mndo 0. mlstake-whlchover way it
was-what do you think ho would
say ? "
" e would certainly have nothing

"I do wish I knew what I snld , "
she murmured. "I shouhl feel so

prlsed to notlco n IIttlo IIno of worry

Correct Mourning ,

Instead of the gowns being trimmed
with folds and voJants of crepe this

graceful crepe. Simplicity will be tbo
