The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

Chapter 53. DEVELOPMENTS. . Langley Williams was tall, very tall Indeed bis height made apparently greater because of bis extreme slimness. Ruth thought him quite the tallest man she had ever seen. Later the found that the thick crop ot straight yellow-hair which was brushed straight back from his forehead added an inch or two to his height. That was all the girl was conscious of at a first impression. Later she discovered that he had grey eyes,

which were not very large, a mouth I that closed firmly, but that was rather j

homiy in shape; a jaw that was firmer than the mouth, and a great many lines in his face. Just now, as he smiled, she did not notice this

on tramp steamers whatever they are, and he's walked when he hadn t money. He's been in the mines in South America, and, oh, dear, he's been all over." Ruth began to be interested then Here was someone who would tell her, at least, about the places she wanted to see! "He's an efficiency man. He goes into places, factories mostly, and goes over their books, and through their works, an.d watches their people. Then be tells them which are the best

workers and which aren't, and why, and what to do to the place to make it pay better. It all sounds so very

interesting." Mrs. Weed quite enthus

factory where she was! On the way

life and his face showed it. He would know more things about a man he ha4 just met than most people would find out after weeks of acquaintance. He knew practically nothing about woman, men rarely deceived him, wo men always could, and one woman once But meantime Ruth was speaking again. "Tim said he was sending you to see about a a room." Her cheeks flushed suddenly, and she wondered

why she should feel embarrassed with j

him. talking about a simple business arrangement such as renting a room, when she had no such ideas with anyone else! "Well, yes, that was partly it." He was standing on the step below her, but she still felt that she was looking up at him. "I expected to get here a long time ago, but I only arrived yesir:)ay and I'm stopping at well, they tall it. a hotel." ' Ruth laughed. She knew the Main

could not and would not meet this

man, this friend of Tim's, as a "factory hand," and as the daughter of a rooming-house proprietor. Then she was ashamed of herself for her snobbish attitude. But in spite of that, when she heard that a real estate firm in the town needed a stenographer, and some one "to tend the office," she went down ana asked for the place. And when she secured it she felt immensely relieved. At least it was $1 a week more, and it was in a place where she need not breathe lint, nor listen to the vulgarities of the factory workers. She could use some of her intelligence and she need not meet Langley Williams while she was at work. "I'll get there yet, but it's slow," she said to her mother. Tomorrow "Great Plans."

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I would like you to advise me what color would suit me best for summer. I am a blond and have blue eyes and am not quite five feet tall.

yellow would be becoming for you for

company with you. He probably will ask you if he cares to call.

And Ruth, grateful that he could understand the idea she could not explain, said nothing more about it. The next day Ruth received a note from Langley Williams. It said: "Thanks for your suggestion about a place to live. I'm already fixed very nicely there. This is the letter of In

There are ce:lain Kws in life wt-icb must be remembered in the springtime of the year just as much as in the cooler seasons when reason raOier than impulse governs conduct. Love rnd happiness must b? earned ju.t as much as anything else in life tint is worth while. It is generally supposed that a chaperon is nocessary when boys and g:rls go to the wood. Personally I wonder how much Rood the chaperon does unless it i.-; to add propriety. When there is a chaperon, gossips give their sanction and feel that everything is all right r.r.d theie is no reason for questioning the conduct of the young peoplo. When there is no chaperon, a ct rtain class of people, looking for tle unclean in lif. begin wondering .vhal happened on the little expedwion into the woods and they spread their imaginations by talking th matter ovr with friends. Everything rit;pends upon the moral fiber of the youth. Some can tie trusted with or without a chaperon, vhi'.o others will work mischief in either case.

"I Want to Hear a Brunswick Phonograph

The lady was interested. We knew that the minute she entered our door; and we lost no time in leading her to the talking machine department, where the instrument called for was put into action, playing her favorite selection. "So that is the Brunswick, is it? Well, I have heard that it is the sweetest toned phonograph made and now I believe. What model do you think I ought to take? I don't care to go over two hundred dollars." Of course, the rest was easy. The Brunswick tone had won the day. The phonograph, too, was so beautiful in design and there were so many exclusive Brunswick features to make it more desirable that our salesman simply took the order. Won't you come in and hear a Brunswick? Spend a little time with us, listening to your favorite music, the next time you are up town.
