The footman Jumped over the wheel, the carriage door was opened and the big voice of Miss Van Tassel called: "Well, if here isn't the little sister and the big one too! The whole Ryan family in a bunch! Bundle 'em In, Thomas, and we'll drive 'em home." Tom "bundled 'em in," closed the door and sprang to the box.

it is one thing to fare boldly forth upheld by a sense of injury and the novelty of adventure, and it is quite another thing to wend one's way homeward when one's sense of injury tas utterly vanished and novelty has become monotony. The afternoon sun was not quite so warm on the bench when the Lady Gwendolyn made the discovery that she had seen enough of carpeted grass and blanketed tree branches, Snow ws pretty cold stuff to look at anyway, and it suddenly seemed to the Lady Gwendolyn that she had been looking at It a very long time. She climbed down from her bench with a stiffness that surprised her, and with a growing sense of Insecurity walked toward the avenue, The park seemed a very large place, and she was glad to get out of It, jet as she stood on the sidewalk two big tears forced their way from behind winking lashes. Through which of those streets lay the way home? Which way should she turn? Everything looked strange and unfriendly. When Ellen Ryan cut her hand on the broken goblet she was picking up In response to the floorwalker's order, the doctor of Rush Hurry's big store dressed the wound neatly and, patting her on the shoulder, said: "There, you'd better run home for the rest of the day.

You'll be all right tomorrow." So Ellen, with her hand In a bandage and a stiff feeling in the palm of it, hurried homeward, thinking that if Aunt Julia had been too busy there was yet time to take the little sister for a walk. Running up the stairs, she was bumped Into by Mamie Reagan, who was running down at breakneck speed. "They ain't found her yet," was her excited salutation. "I'm goin' out again. Yer aunt's carryln' on awful." Ellen's heart seemed to stop beating.

She grasped at Mamie Reagan's dress and opened her mouth, but Mamie had resumed her headlong flight. Ellen tottered up the rest of the stairs, her ears assailed as she neared the door of their rooms by moans within and the sound of Mrs. Reagan's voice. "There, now," she was saying, "don't take on so. Mamie Reagan '11 find her.

She's a reg'lar detective, I There, she'll be be ft minute. All the cor on ine beat knows Gwendo- ieen." 1 ben, as she caught sight of Ellen, "Lord, what '11 1 do with her?" "Now It's all right," she began, shaking a bottle of household ammonia at Ellen. Ellen crossed the room to her aunt. "When did you miss her?" she asked. "I just went In Mis' Reagan's explained Aunt Julia.

"I wanted her to keep the baby carriage Miss Van Tassel bad sent till Christmas. I had my bonnet all on" "When did you miss her?" broke In the stern young voice. Aunt Julia sat up and put her hand to her head. "It was 3 o'clock or maybe half past I remember because our clock had struck 7, and It always" "Had you promised to take her to any place?" "We was goin' to the park she'd been tellin' me that foolishness ye'd told her about the snow fairies and" Aunt Julia's voice rose to a sobbing wall as El'n turned and left the room without explanation or comment. She dashed down the stairs at a speed that rivaled Mamie Reagan's and started on a mad run west "She may have found her way there." she muttered to herself.

A messenger' boy, two newsboys, a nursemaid with her charge, a man with a suit case and a pretty young woman with her hands In a big muff formed an unconsciously interesting group about a small solitary figure. Blue defiant eyes looked out of a white face from under a wide bonnet frill and two little white mittens were doubled up by tense baby fists. Ellen bore down on this group. Intuition, Instinct, sister heart, all told her that here was the Lady Gwendolyn. She pushed aside the newsboys, stepped on the messengers toes and knocked against the suit "Gwendoleen!" "Nellen, my Nellen!" came from the depths of the white bonnet The Lady Gwendolyn was caught up into a fierce embrace and the cut hand, heedless of wound and bandage, pressed the little head close to "Nellen's" heart ought to be discharged," said the.

pretty young woman. "Gee!" said the messenger boy. fYou'll be in luck if you don't get de bounce fer dis." Ellen looked wonderingly from one to another. Then it rushed over her she was Gwendolyn's nurse. The baby sister had been taken for a lady a real lady.

"Yes, ma'am," she said meekly to the young woman. "I'll be more care ful another Taking a firm hold on the little hand, be addressed the small figure In clear and distinctly humble tones. vv "Come, Miss Gwendoleen," she said.

Aunt Julia might stay and talk with Mrs, Beagan as long as she liked and about all the stupid things they liked. Dwendolvn she announced again, and Gwendolyn did. I Along the hall, past Mrs. Beagan half open door, down the stairs, step by step, and so on to the sidewalk. The Lady Gwendolyn was an impulsive person, and, being of a mind to Tiew the trees of the park, clothed, as she had been told, in the snow blankets woven by the fairies the night before, she had determined to wait no longer, but to start out by herself, which was of course contrary to any precedent ever established.

Now, the first lady in waiting was nearly al ways in attendance on the Lady Gwendolyn and usually planned so that her duties as housekeeper fitted in nicely with tho rlomnnria nf hpr ntlipr nosinon The second lady In waiting, having been promoted from the menial rank nf on eh o-lrl In Ttnah TTllrrv's hlflf Fourteenth street shop to serve in that firm's lunchroom, found her hours a bit easier and her weekly envelope a trifle heavier, two things that made possible even more devotion on her part to the service of Lady Gwendolyn, It would take too long to recant ins Incident, or which the head of the chambers had arisen to the dignity of a wooden faced footman, tight booted and befurred of collar, who flung himself with most atisfactorv recklessness on and from the seat of Miss Van Tassel's brough-' am. "He's a star, that kid!" Miss Van Tassel was wont to exclaim when, In company with other blond ladies, she wmill' Inova tha stairs rlnnr offer re hearsal.

And Miss Van Tassel, herself a star of no mean magnitude, would enter her carriage amid a chorus of more or less envious assents from the lesser lights of her constellation. The coachman would touch the bad tempered cob and leave the star groom to alight beside him after a flying leap over the wheel. Although the head groom of cnamDers uau uecome me iuuimu vi Miss Violet Van Tassel, who had the reputation of being the most graceful dancer as well as the biggest hearted woman that a music 'hall audience ever split Its gloves for, still he was faithful to the house of Ryan, and the Lady Gwendolyn could never complain of disloyalty. Christmas was at hand, and Miss Van Tassel had made known to her footman a few Ideas of her own on the subject of Christmas trees In general and of one In particular that was intended for the special benefit of the Lady Gwendolyn. Nearly all her spare time for two days had been spent In driving from shop to shop, and the address given for the sending of the parcels had not been Central Park West, but Second avenue.

umuuib nw ghops, more noticeably the toyshops, Miss Van Tassel would hold consultation with her footman. Advice, suggestion, description, seemed to pass between them, together with many nods and smiles on the part of Miss Van Tassel and many touchlngs of the hat on the part of Tom. All unknown to Miss Van Tassel she became an angel with a very yellow halo and brilliant' garments. All unknown to Tom he became to Miss Van Tassel the image of the young brother who had died a small pauper before ever the twinkling toes had brought fame and wealth to his adoring sister. By dint of Judicious tagging of various people who seemed to be going in the right direction, the Lady Gwendolyn reached the park under the chaper-nage of two unconscious nursemaids, iwhose charges were engaged In making faces at each other from their re- spective chariots.

Arrived at her des-t tlnatlon, she managed to clamber on ne of the benches and surveyed the scene before her with delighted eyes.
