Se Feggy nnrt Hll:y gathered a pile of

Afraid of Judge Ow,
Peggy and Billy kept heaping en mere
sticks, building up a rearing blaze that
threw out Its heat far and wide. The
blrdu and animals shivered nnd shook
for a long time, but slowly they thawed
out, and as they grew warm their stom

this a geed time te scold them.
"Whoe-oo ! Whoe-oo I I told you

THE DAILY NOVELETTE
The Wrong Cinderella
lly HA7.ni, OllAY WOOD
SliADK 1JANCKOKT passed behind the
pnlm bower where sat enthroned
three fanning patronesses, lifted his
flowing Turkish tieUBers carefully ever
the sill, und stepped from the radlnncu
of the annual fancy dress ball of the
Beaver Hills Country Club Inte the soft
starlight of an Indian summer night.
Then he paused In surprise.
"Jump!" seme ene ordered In n low,
stnecate command, nnd nt the word a
white-clad figure mounted the balcony
rail and, without hesitation, leaped.
Cnnw a thud, low voices, nnd the
sound of retreating footsteps. Then
Hlnde came ferwnrd te reti leva what the
Intrepid young person had dropped In
her unceremonious departure. As he
picked up the souvenir, n subtje thrill
shot through him. He apparently had
surprised a veritable Cinderella In the
net of flight, for In his hand he held n
niinnnr n natent leather affair, net
lnrgc, yet suggestlve of the athletic girl
of medprn times rather thun the tiny
footed Cinderella of tradition.
Reflecting that It was odd she had
net returned for It. he tucked the slipper
Inte his voluminous sash and began a
leisurely circuit of the verandahs In
search of a girl In white minus a shoe.
But net until he strolled down te the
tile-floored basement grill was his hunt
rewarded Hitting nlenc at a comer
tnble was a slender flgure In the simple
white of nn Arnb woman, her face In
trlgulngly velled Her coBtume was com
plete except for a pair of sturdy walk
ing beets, nnd It wns the beets which
caught Blade's ey. He had tracked his
qunrry I Cinderella, unable te And her
slipper, hnd denned her street shoes.
Casually, he dropped Inte the chair
beside her. "Helle, little Cinderella 1'
he hazarded. . .. .
i "Thnt's me all ever, Huren Al-iiascn-
Id '" flashed the girl, "but hew en earth
did you knew?"
I "Your shoes," he lejelned promptly.
I and then was surprised tn see, nbeve
I her veil, a swiftly mounting flush.
I "Fer a stranger, aren't you rather
I well, Impertinent?" she said ceidiy, lit
the snme time endeavoring te tuck the
I offending footwear up out of sight en
the runirs of her chair.
"But I held the proof." persisted
Cfnrln Htl.llflv TllMI lift HhrUtfgCd niS
shoulders If she wns bound te keep
te herself the reason for her leap In the
dark nnd consequent lets of her shoe,
why Interfere with her whim?
"Shall we dance?" he asked abruptly,
ns the fleer above them quivered with
many one. stepping feet.
She rose without n word ami. pres
ently, npltnlrs. Hlnde found himself
floating down the hall with the lightest
bit of thistledown he hnd ever held In
his arms. Heavy shoes or net, Miss
Cinderella could nance, . ,
Suddenly, just as the orchestra settled
down te a fourth encore, Perry Olbbs,
master of ceremonies, appeared en the
raised dais which had been a. throne
for the Queen of the Bevels and by hi"
very prominent position attracted Imme-
rtlntn attention.

the room advanced a Pierrot nnd a
Swiss mountaineer, their garments In
