the brilliant rooms, decorated with
their garlands and bouqueta of ex
pensive dowers and perfumed with
that refinement which wealth cun
ningly spent knows so well how to pro
duce. The guests came, dressed In the lat
est and best that money can afford.
The conversation was charming and
agreeable. To hear these men and wo
men talk a stranger never could have
guessed that there was such a thlug us
sufferiug In all the world. The music
was about love and flowers and beauty
aud sentimental phrases that bad no
meaning or a double one. The whole
thing filled Stuart for the first time In
his life with unspeakable loathing. It
seemed to him like a dance In a came
tery, where the dancers might Imagine
they were waltzing over fragruiit
meadows dotted with white blossoms
when lu reality It was on human
graves they danced, black with the
freshly laid earth of new made burials.
He never knew bow he jmssed the
evening. Ho sang with Miss Vas
plalne when Louise requested It. He
heard n great appluuse when they bad
Unlshed. L'nu was dressed beautifully.
She was handsome, with great black
eyes and much color, of the type of
English girls, bo different from Rhe
na, Stuart remembered thinking at one
time duriug the eveulng. He found
greut difficulty lu conversation, tie
hnd never been very apt at the slight
nothings society knows so well bow u
exchange. Tonight be wondered if the
world was so happy and satisfied et

In the Image of (iod, bad no better w ay
to spend t heir time than to meet for
hours every week dressed lu their best
clothes, eating expensive nnd Indigesti
ble food, singing songs that did not
contain one noble aspiration higher
than a sickly sentiment, excliang'iig
idiotic words thrown Into sentences
that bad no throb of sacrifice or hero
lam or humanity in them, sitting at lit
tle tallies and playing cards by the
hour with n per.-Isteuce and repetition
never shown for any enduring needs of
human suffering and then going home
to sleep late next day ami get up to
prepare for another ulug lu the was
of new ways of arranging dowers, card
tables, menus and decorations ad Inliul
turn ad nauseam after t he manner of
what pleased to call itself the "lirst so
ciety." Yes, the world must be getting oil
very smoothly. There la no real suffer
lug, no Inequality, no need of heroism
or sacrifice, no call for using human
speech lu any better way than to ex
change compliments, no use In trying
to use time except to make money and
enjoy spending it, where women smile
and slug, and flowers give out their
perfume, and dancing r et strike the
polished floor to the m'.'sJe of the
strings behind the palms lu the alcove.
For the world Is society. What other
world Is there that calls for tears and
groans, and sacrifices nud crosses, and
bloody sweat and agony? Strike up 1 he
music faster, faster: "Let us eat,
drink and be merry, for tomorrow we
die." Surely society must ha right. Tlic
Aunt Royals and the Louises are cer
tainly very proper and correct lu their
estimates of what constitutes the right
thing to do. lt cannot be that they are
mistaken In this matter. Yet if they
ore It Is possible the great judgment
day will reveal it to them. After all,
death nnd the judgment are two disa
greeable facts. We beg society's pur
don for mentioning them. Strike up the
music faster, faster! Let us not think
too much. Thinking leads to action,
and action leads to sacrifice, aud sacri
fice Is not agreeable.
At 11 o'clock most of the guests bad
gone. The hour hud been fixed nt 11 by
Aunt Royal out of deference to the re
cent deatb in the family. The Vas
plaines had frequently, when at the
Duncans', sent their coachman borne
nud walked back themselves. They had
been trained to the English constitu
tional habit of walking.
"It's an elegant night. Won't you
walk over with us?" asked young Vas
plalne as they stood In the ball looking
OUt at the snow covered hills, a vision
of loveliness In the moonlight
"Yes, let's go. Stuart!" cried Louise.

The hymn was sung to the tnnc
"What's the News?" It gave ubuuduul
opportunity for criticism as to its
grammar, meter and literary charac
ter, but It struck Into Stuart's heart
like a blazing contrast with the whole
evening spent with society in Its self
ishness. Just as be snd Una reached the end
of the diagonal in front of the bull the
door opened, and some people came
out. And as ho stepped his foot on
