iH(Aoni Zfcrrtman loved C'ar5"2
IirtVifl ftcr so much that ho did not
funk what kind ol an Impression the
t"'",, ,nv on his people. It was
"JUL lk?fcwHfl her to the city a his
ts that hi first began to have doubts
Mi'f iBfceffter or not he had been tatso
?' t0ta out ot his class, and Ms
therc0oolUreciptlonOf 'charlotte
did not help matters any.
TT WAS tho tict that Tony took no
I trouble to htdo his displeasure when
rh.riotte made n mlstnke of any Jtlnd,
SS stttdowca the first, few dav? of her
th?iriM llfo; days which should have
" nil sunshine. Ho criticised her a
!2t deal" but ; tho minute they were
SSS ho wanted her In his arms, and
rlnrl'otto loved him too much to bear
rud. She snatched at the moments
fih iS was willing to tako her as she
ind huBwd them Jealously to her
VU Away from tho eyes of tho
i'o id. ho washers, but when his mother
was present, or nnyono else, ho was
"Vt aSmtaSrlolto madeso many
mistakes i It was that they all seemed
E he wftUlnif for her to make a break
of some kind, and this confused hct
Snd mado her constantly self-conscious.
Khjknew that her ways wero not
theirs, and where Tony's, mother could
hire done a (Treat deal for the Klrl In
SnKtlnc her fears and puttlnB her at
mm sho kept up her haughty aloof
manner never onco unbending toward
hir in tho sllshtest dCRteo. ,
It d'd not take Charlotte lone to un
derstand that Mrs. Harrlman would
never forglvo her for m&rrylnir Tony.
6ho discovered this fact for herself on
the day after her arrival In the city
Xn hernothcr-ln-law took hcr Bhop"
Pl Shopping for pretty clothcB can bo tho
wventh heaven of dellfht for any
Voumr Klrl, and shopping for such clothes
ns sho hnd never worn beforo would have
Seen thrilling In tho oxtrcmo to Charlotte
If tho expedition had been undertaken
with a spirit of good will on the part
of Mrs. Harrlman. Certainly there was
no expenso spalred to fit her out prop
erly They wont first to n lingerie
hop whero Mrs. Harrlman selected flno
embroideries, and loyelv things of lace
ahd Bilk, the price of which took Char
lotte's breath away. The outfit wan
completo oven to a negligee of a shade of
lellow so pale that It almost matchod
oiactly the ash blonde of Charlotte's
hair. Charlotte's heart leaped childish
ly as she thought of wearing It. and she
flushed and trembled at the thought of
the coarso things she had brought from
tho farm, nightgowns of white cambrlo
mado with h'gh necks and sleovei that
c&me to the wrists, .underwear of the
same material mado with cotton laco
that her mother had crocheted by hand,
sitting up at night after one of her hard
days, so that Charlotte might have hcr
ugly garments softened with somo form
of trimming.
She had been fitted with nhoea of soft
est suede, buckled and with such high
heels that she waa afraid to walk in
them, and then laughed nt herself when
she found It so easy. She had had a
ready-to-wear serge drcsa whipped Into
shape so that she could put It on and
walk out of tho shop In It, and a little
velvet hat with two gold qullla had
been crushed down over her yellow hair.
She caught a gllmpso of herself In a
long mirror as they wero leaving the
place and vsas startled at tho girl reflect
ed there. Her feet seemed incredibly
small In tho high-heeled shoes, and gos
samer stockings, her whole nllm little
self seemed somehow to have gained
dignity and height In the simple, ultra
smart things she woro. It was a revela
tion, and then as they emerged Into the
crisp fall out-of-doors, a dazzling v'slon
swept up to them, exclaiming In a
sweet high pitched voice,
"Why, Aunt Evelyn, how lovely to
meet you like thla"
Charlotte stood silent, entirely out of
the eager conversation that followed. Sho
found herself examining this girl In a
curiously deltberato fashion. She was
so ent'rely perfect, as though overy
little detail of her costume had been
chosen for Its own special effect. Char
lotte was conscloua of the gulf that
stretched between herself and this gay
laughing creature, whose clothes were
worn with tho carelessness of perfect
grooming. She forgot the new clothes
that she woro and remembered only the
fact that they had been put on over her
coarso underwear. It symbolised some
how tho veneer that hcr mothor-ln-Iaw
had thrown over her, to hldo what eho
really wob from the world.
It seemed an eternity beforo Mrs.
Harrlman turned, Including Charlotto nt
last In the conversation.
'0, ndlth," Bho said evenly, and a
cow little noto crept Into her voice.
"llils Is Anthony's wife."
