The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

Chapter 69. INVITATIONS. Other letters from Myra followed. Suddenly she seemed either to have developed a sudden love for her former chum, or suddenly to have a great deal of leisure on her hands. And gradually the letters ceased to make Ruth feel badly. After a time, they even began to bore her a little. Myra never said anything that was Interesting to read. "Gaby's in a new show, she has a grand part," was one piece of news. "She sings three songs alone and wears the loveliest clothes. I made Tim take me to see her and went behind the scenes afterwards. It was lovely and eiciting, I hadn't been back for so long. She's not the star, she's third in the company and getting, she says, .$250 a week. And my, her clothes! I mean her real ones. She spends every cent on clothes." A few weeks later another letter came: "I saw Emily the other day that was the first time in a year. She came up to see me. She says she's going to marry Johnny Trumbull in the spring. He's got a million, so I'll be ..related to someone rich, even if 1 am poor. So she's been spending all the.; money she had living up to her future, she says. She's got thousands of dollars worth of things and she's got n dandy car. She says she has to do it, because Trumbull has so

many wealthy friends and she doesn't

want. any of them to think he is mar

rying a poor woman. My, I always thought she was pretty rich, but she doesn't think so." Otherwise the letters were only a record of what Tim said, and of the movies they had been to, and of the increasing number of pounds the baby weighed, or of some neighbors who came in and played cards. Myra was utterly content, her letters breathed that spirit. She quite evidently adored her husband and her f baby and her home, and the way she was living. "And after all," Ruth said to Langley one day, "That's the best way to live. S;he has everything she wants. She certainly has everything a woman normally desires her Jiusband, her home, her child.-' "AH social instinct; satisfied! But would you like it would you change places with her?" "Would I?" the girl exclaimed. "I should say so! For what have I work, and work under a great handicap, poverty, bills that eat up the money, even when I make it. Myra

their friends as well as their clothes and their pleasures!" Yet a few days afterwards Ruth opened a letter in a strange handwriting. It was a formal little card, inviting "Miss Ruth O'Niel" to a dinner to be given at "The Oaks" the following week. Ruth stared at the invitation. She showed "It to her mother. "They're nice people," that lady said with satisfaction. "That's Mrs. Van Zyl. She's one of th richest women in the state. It's a' New York family the Van Zyls have a big position there. "Mr, Van Zyl has been buying bonds. I met him at one or two of our Civic Meetings. He's interested in the factory town, owns land near the new development."

You'll need a new dress better go to I W. Gibson, of Muncie

Tripper's and get one a blue taffeta,

I think you could use it for other things later." Ruth thought of the clothes little Mr. Tripper chose for the young ladies of her tiny town. She thought of the lovely dresses Myra had worn in the city she needed that sort of costume. She shook her head. Then she went to her room and politely declined the invitation. "Have a gown made, or send away and get one," Langley urged. "It would cost a hundred dollars, the sort of thing those women wear. I can't take the money, I must try to send Father away." And in spite of this refusal, other invitations came to her from the influential families who lived near Marketown, but who, so far, had held aloof from it socially. But Ruth declined them all. She hated to do it, but she felt she could not afford to accept them. Tomorrow "The Dead of Night."

It seems to me you are wasting your energy thinking so much about a young man who is foolish enough to spend his time gambling and who is not seriously interested in you. He does not love you or he would want to be with you more. Your love is mostly a thing of your imagination. You especially want the young man because he is so different. Unless you can spend less time thinking about him, I would advise you to give him up, in which case you would feel free and would not be in a constant state of waiting for word from him.
