“J OTHER, 1 would rather remain
at home than go to the dance
in that old blue gown,” cried Nancy
Deering. “I know perfectly well that
everyone there has seen it dozens of
times, and of course I cannot have a
new one now—I am not complaining—
I would really rather not go at all.”
“Why ?”
“I'm rather tired of the old crowd,”
she whimpered.
Her mother saw the red lips quiver
and she knew it was because Carolyn
Wright would be there with a group
of young girls and men from the city,
and that Paul Mason might be among
them. Paul had been very devoted to
Nancy the winter before and people
had expected them to marry. But he
had gone back to the city and Nancy
had fortified herself behind a little
wall of pride and gone everywhere.
But her observant mother had noticed
that she did not wear the rose-colored
dress again, It was a charming dress

of soft rose satin and Nancy had
looked like a rose herself as she
danced the evening through. Almost
any man would have capitulated to its
allurement, but Paul must have been
made of sterner stuff for he rode away
and Nancy was still free.
“Why don't you wear the rose satin,
Nancy?’ asked her mother.
“Nancy paled and for a moment she
hid her face in her mother’s lap. “I
cannot, mother dear; it is such a hap-
py dress,” she whispered.
Mrs. Deering bent and kissed the
brown head. “Wearing a ‘happy dress’
might bring happiness back to you,
dearie,” she said; and the words went
to Nancy's heart. Of course, Paul
would never come back again, but
wearing it would help her to forget
| him, forget his fickleness. She had
| learned to love the big shy fellow, and
she believed that last night at the
club dance, when she had worn the
rose satin dress, that he would say
something about his love, but he had
gone soberly away.
So she did not wear the blue dress,
but came running down in the
colored satin. Her mother admired
| her from crown to ankles and silver
“Mr. Wright said Paul was
coming,” thought Mrs. Deering, “and
perhaps my girl will be happy after
all!”
rose-
went away in her “happi-
ness dress” and mingled with the
youth and beauty on the clubroom
floor. Her card was nearly full when
a big form blocked off other partners
and a familiar voice caused her heart
to throb madly.
“How do you do, Nancy? Have you
any dances left?” It was Paul Mason,
looking thinner and graver, but his
smile was the same and the wistful
look in his brown eyes brought color
to her cheeks.
“You are wearing the same little
dress,” he said after awhile.
“This—rose dress?’ Nancy won-
dered how he could remember.
“Yes—you had it on the last time
I danced with you.”
Nancy did not tell him this was
the first time she had worn it since
that unhappy night, which had begun
so full of promise and ended in tears
for her. “I call it my ‘happiness
dress,’” she said, determined that he
should not guess that she had grieved
for him.
“And you have been happy in it?
he asked.
Her eyes flashed him an affirmative,
and he looked down at her pink
cheeks and the dark lashes that lay
thickly against their roundness.
Afterward when he was leaning
aginst the wall, watching Nancy dance
with Marty Wright, two girls began to
speak of the rose dress Nancy wore.
“She hasn't worn it in ages,” said
one.
“I thought it was a new one,” said
the other. *“She’s been wearing a blue
silk and a white one—I never saw this
one before.”
“It was new last winter for the club
dance—I remember she wore it once
and hasn’t had it on since—it’s a dar-
ling, isn’t it?” she cried enthusiasti-
cally.
Paul had the next dance with Nancy
and he led her straight away out of
the house to the pergolas which over-
looked the water. “Nancy, are you
happy in your dress?” he asked.
“Why not?’ she asked coldly.
“TI must know!” he declared pas-
sionately.
She turned her head away and he
saw tears on the thick lashes. “Tell
me, dear,” he insisted. “I am asking
because—"
Nancy cried softly.
Presently she lifted her head and
smiled at him. “I am so foolish to
cry when I have my ‘happiness dress’
on,” she said, “but isn’t that just like
la woman?”
| He caught her hand and held it.
‘Nancy, did you read my note?”
“What note?”
“
“When you wore this dress before
I put a note in that little lacy pocket
& | In the sash—I was sure you'd find it-
| ah, beloved, it is here, sealed—and
| you have never known how 1 love you
—I wanted you to answer and tell me
i | if you cared—I was scared stiff in
those days—but now my tongue fis
loosed. If you hadn't worn this dress
tonight TI would not have dared
hope—"
cried
Then Paul kissed
Nancy tearfully.

No animal can approach the chee

The leopard kills for the pleasure
of killing. It will enter a sheepfold

leopard country no dog is safe.
Lions rarely become man-eaters.
The reason lies partly in the boldness
of the African natives, particularly
the Masai, who pursue to the death
any lion that dares kill one of their
sheep or goats.
