of words She had granted Nan absolution at the first glimpse of face Nevertheless she carried Nan off to bed with an invitation to Channlng to come and drink a cup of tea the next day As Nan followed her mother through the doorway Channlng holding back the curtain leaned forward he asked tenderly Nan reached back and plucked a pink oleander blossom from the tree He held out his hand and she dropped the flower in it and was instantly gone And Channlng wore the flower home and dreamed of the earliest day when he might come again and carry sweet Nancy off forever was pinkest Just above her

Associated Literary Pren) Channlng escaped from the ball room with a sigh of relief and wandered aimlessly down the softly lighted corridor The alluring strains of waits music arose above the slip of feet on the polished floor and the rustle of silks and satins The ballroom provided so many cozy anterooms for quiet talk or flirtation that the corridor was quite deserted At the farther end Chan nlng paused abruptly before a narrow doorway hung with dark velvet A faint pencil of light shot from between the hangings and from the opening the music of the orchestra eame softly He pushed the curtains aside and passing up a winding stairway stepped into a small balcony overhanging the ballroom Behind a high bank of palms and oleanders he was screened from the throng below Channlng looked down on the moving -shimmering crowd below now and then picking out a familiar form as it whirled along His hostess Mrs Bowring splendid in violet brocade vas dancing with Ellery Bee The diamonds in her white hair sparkled with a thousand points of flame as she nodded and smiled Her daughters Evelyn and Florence fashionable prototypes of a fashionable mother waltzed their way under his vision flashing and sparkling and very gorgeous as to raiment It was not until he looked about for a chair Howard Channlng discovered that he was not alone Sitting among the oleanders looking wistfully down into the room below was a girl slender and graceful and very lovely with softly tinted ehreks cupped in her slender white hands Her gown was of some soft green stuff that melted into the fbllage of the oleanders and palms It was no wonder she had --been undiscovered until now At the same moment she looked up and saw him and a wave of crimson swept her face from brow to chin The wide brown eyes had a frightened look and Channlng saw that she was young "I am afraid I startled you" he said courteously did not see you I thought I was quite alone" did not hear you come in" she said In a low embarrassed voice did not occur to me that any one might come here You need not leave shall go away presently" is your retreat by right of prior occupancy" he Bald with one of his rare smiles came to get away from the crowd" He found a chair and seated blmsdlf behind the green screen The girl turned her small well-polsed head away from him and resumed her observation of the dancers Channlng watched her charming profile marveling that one so young and so beautiful should voluntarily become an exile from the gay scene below me but I am sure you are one of Mrs Bowring's daughters1 "he ventured to say after many minutes had passed am Howard Chan-ning" She turned quickly knew that I recognized you at once" She colored adorably at his surprised glance are very good" he said puzzled "1 know I could not have forgotten you if we had "We met I have seen your she confessed "Mother has so many photographs and Florence has told me all about the origl nals that is how I knew you" "Then you are Mrs he asked once more The girl nodded with a little friendly smile that went straight to hitherto impervious heart am the youngest and not so very young at that! not out yet you see so I simply have to steal these little pleasures Mother would not hear of my watching the ball from this balcony After it had begun I Just slipped on one of gowns I had to' have a green one so I might not be discovered I suppose you think I am very deceitful" Channlng was thinking at that moment several highly important things One was that he was glad that he had come to the Bowring ball another that he had stolen away to the balcony and again he was thinking that Nan herself looked very much like a pink oleander blossom set in the foliage of her dark green gown that you are here you may as well enjoy the he said hurriedly to the dancing one en Joys something good to eat At least I have many opportunities to taste ballroom said Nan mis chievously of course you know school girls are always hungry and I know the supper is to be delicious will have our said Channlng decidedly will return in a few minutes if you will wait He was gone then and Nan looked after his tall form with growing ad miration For several years she had been familiar with Howard Chan name 8he knew that of all the eligible men her clever mother had In mind as possible husbands for Evelyn and Florence Channlng stood
