CONFIDENCES OVERHEARD. Chapter 45. The walls of the little flat were very thin .like most of the old-fashioned, cheaply built flata in that part of the city. The Talbots were fortunate to find a place with rooms as large as the?e, and with so much air and sunlight, at such a small rental and they did it only because they walked up several flights of steps; and because thHr apartment house was next to an old three-story residence that was one of the few left. The others had been torn down to make way for the more lucrative houses or tlats. Mrs. Talbot had never heard "voices through the wall before the girls haJ been conscientiously quiet all nighr, and she herself had slept well. Tonight the city was quiet, so small sounds carried and she herself was keyed up to a nervous tension now, and wide awake. Ordinarily, she would not have heard; tonight she deliberately listened for their words. There was something said while Amy undressed then tbe ellght squeak of a spring as Amy got into bed her couch was against the wall and Mrs. Talbot's bed was on the ether side of the same wall. "Of course I noticed he hadn't been around lately." Amy said. "It's too bad mother frightens him. If she only wasn't so old-fashioned! Of course it's very sweet to be old-fashioned ind to have strict ideas as she has. but a very modern man like Donald cant' understand." Jane's answer was only a murmur, without definite words. Amy's voice came attain: "Of course. I think he ought to want o marry you, since you want to marry him you do. you can't deny it to me. I think It is very noble of you to wart to marry him. He will never be rich. He will neveV be able to give you anvthing." Again a murmur, without distinguishable words. Then Amy "It's awfully romantic. No, I would not think it wrong, if you were very much in love with each other." What wrong what did Amy mean? Mrs. Talbot strained her ears to catch 'he rest of this. "It's much worse to do what I an ?oing to do." The sound of a few pillows being thrown about on the floor rime faintly. Amy. enjoying tlm midnight romantic discussion, was settling herself comfortably in bed to go on talking. "I am going to marry a man for his money. Who? I don't know. If I like him, so much the better." But you see, Jane, we are just two girls from the -country', with plenty of ability and ambition, and no one to help us but ourselves. So I think we are justified in making use of every means to get on. "You are in love with Donald, who can offer you nothing as a husband, nrt a name, nor an income, nothing luxurious or even comfortable. But then you want to work, and you want to go on with your profession, so money doesn't matter to you. Of course, I know that Donald feels hu isn't worthy of being a husband, sinco he can't offer anything, but as long as to share with the poor and that they baK he ought not to object." Again the mother felt her heart contract. Had there been talk of mar "iuge between Jane and Donald! Had Donald refused? Aniv wc-nt on: "I like Donald a lot. and I think he wonderfullv brilliant and all that But he is too" radical to be a success...i .!.,.-... 1 1 a inct rant hf SUCh S.

ly and ambitious cially if" for Donald espo Evidently she broke off, there 'wa3 a silence. Especially if what? Mrs. Talbot sat rigid, waiting: for the rest. "It is certainly more noble than my ambition," Amy went on. "I am young and pretty and I can always make men most men interested in me. They think I am sweet and innocent. In reality I am frightfully cold-blooded and hard. I am playing along with a lot of those boys, until one of them brings me something really worth while I mean someone with influence and money. Then, if I can, I will marry him. Then I will be aa opera singer. "I'll never get beyond the chorus now. My voice isn't wonderful and it doesn't matter much. They arc all cut-throats when it comes to getting a star part. It takes more than a voice to be made a great singer. With a rich husband " She broke off, evidently thinking of all the luxury a rich husband would mean. "I am a mean little wretch," she weni on. "If either of us is doing wrong, it is I, not you. Janie dear. But mother would think us both evil, , I expect. You are willing to give up everw.hinfr for love. I am willing to take everything, and love too, and not give anything. It's good mother doesn't really know us." But mother, lying wide awak, i staring into the dark, knew that she ! had to have a long talk with her two daughters the next day. She lay awake until dawn came, cold and cheerless through the window, wondering what she could say. Tomorrow A Long Talk.

PERHAPS it is just as well that mere Man does not realize how easy it is to make wonderful biscuits withValier's Enterprise Flour 1 But it would be well if every woman knew just why Enterprise produces results which satisfy. That is because this Flour is always exactly the same. Only the choicest . hard wheat is used, and only that wheat's very richest part. And it never varies so, of course, it never disappoints.
