A Story that, starts where ot-
hers leave off—where the poor
girl marries her rich ideal
where the heiress, tired of so-
cietys whims, weds a plate*
And when their dreams have
come true at the altar—what of
the years to follow?
A picture that takes the old
adage. "Like to like." and wea-
ves t 11 to a gorgeous tapestry
of lfe—New York life! with its
pleasure, its pain, its thousand
alluring varieties 1

or not. Hut he did know that In hla

the dearest little glrlg who hod ever
lived.

never failed to talk of his poverty.
He had been accused of worshiping
money and he had replied: "Not u hit
of It. 1 have
great respect for
money. That la
the difference."
llurold despised
Hint kind of a
person. And yet,
perhaps, wouldn't
the "dearest lit-
tle irirl" think he
w us mean? He
had never given
her anything and
ho hud lived at
the boarding
house for six
months now. Did
she think he was
mean 7 That was
what bothered
him. She hud
told him of n person she hud known
whom she considered a miser, and she
hud told him > f a Joke upon this
"miser." For he hud bargained with a
little shtyi dealer und had obtained an
article marked a dollar for fifty cents,
and then hud walked down the Ftreet
a little further on und hud seen the
same article In another window for
twenty-five cents. And Anally he had
seen it In a ten-cent store for a dltne—
well, he had almost considered life
useless, while everyone else had re-
joiced thnt It hud been a good one on
the "miser."
One of the reasons that made him
feel thnt she thought, perhaps, he wus
mean was because she know others
who were generous. Or, at least, one
other.
Every Saturday she had received
(lowers. She hud taken a enrd out of
the box us they hud sat at the board-
ing bouse table at breakfast. The
other boarders teased her about her
admirer and she seemed to enjoy It.
Only he felt uncomfortable and could
say nothing.
And Helen, whom he called to hltn-
aelf Uie dearest little girl, had been
receiving these flowers for quite a
few weeks now.
Finally he could stand It no longer.
His mother needn't tell htm nnythlng
more about the city's designing wom-
en. He was not going to lose the
dearest little girl, If there was yet s
chance, because of his mother's warn-
ings to keep to himself.
And, besides, Christmas waa aomlng,

And he sent her violets, beautiful
deep purple violets, with a pink row
In the center.
Never had he seen her so happy aa
she was over his violets. How differ-

the others. Anil then he asked her If
she would take a walk with him. So

"What other
