"What chancH" grasped Ladr Connie
taking her fair dishevelled head out
from amongst tho cushions ot her bou
doir lounge and drying her tear-slnined
eyes with an ab3urd little gossame?
handkerchief; "what chance has a girl
a mere girl who lias only been out
for a season and a half against a mar-
ried woman like Nlta Le UuosneV"
"None at all" said her frlond a rath-
er plain sensible young woman wit!)
sporting tastes and tailor-made gar-
ments. "Not the ghost of a chancel"
"Yes she's over 30 and makes up!"
Bald Lady Connie viciously.
"Men prefer women of 30" said Molly
Verdon sententlously "and I am inclin-
ed to bellevo that they learn to make
up."
"Her waist Is at least six Inches larg-
er than mine" Connie persisted.
"She is of the voluptuous and rV'
dundant type I grant you" returnsd
her friend; but men like that too."
"Her boots are fives and liar glovwi
Ovens."
"She is given to pedMtrlanlsm and
drives four-ln-hand. Men adore that
kind of tiling' returned Molly lighting
a cigarette. "5ly ohlld what perfect

"It was only Christian charity" said
Iadv Connie with dignity. "Ho had a

"And little Connie thought that at

"Nominally. IJut after the soup they
draw the curtain that divides tho ladles'

"Fusion is the word. I should like of
all things to see It. Why did you never
as. me before?"
"Uecause I never joined until I went
Jn for swimming" retorted Lady Con-
Llu. "And now you're ono of tho cracks
tren't you?"
"I've won some races and gained a
bracelet for the high dive."
"Does she I'll call tho Lo Quesne tho
Ogross because she has such an budear -
ing little way of crunching eligible
young men up body and bones does
she natatc na tho Americans say?"
"Swim? Like a bladder of lard!" said
Connie disgustedly. "Walloping is the
word for It. Sce.oro!'" She puffed out
her fair cheeks and waved her arms
and gave on thefvhole a not too exag-
gerated imitationof the aquatic frolics
ot the lady in question and Molly
shrieked with lalightor.
"Women aro never humorous unless
they're Jealous" she said wiping her
brimming eyes when the performance
wap over.
"Jealou! Do you auppos 7" Con-
nie was beginning when the other cut
her short.
"oJalous? Of course you aro! And
if you want to cut out your hated rival
do it in the watr. Don't you have
aquatic show-off diys. when the male
club members race In the hie awimmlnc

when the worn on splash and (be m(m

stooped to whisper ln Connie's oar.
"Pull her under duck hor mako her
appear an Idiot whon Freddy Lorrlker
la looking on and sho may hold up her
nnger until sho perlchos after that
without getting him back. Trust mo! I
know men!" said Molly.
"Ohl you dear darling elever thing!"
screamed Connie falling on her friend' j
neck ln rapture. And they went to-
gether to the "Dips" Club and iunehed
at the very next table to Mrs. Le
Quesne and she waa very kind and
condescending to Lady Connie so much
eo that Lady Connie would have given
worlas to be able to hurl a outlet at her
rival's head and challenge her to a
duel with pickle-forks. Then Just be-
i fore the seoond eourse the ourtalns
dividing the gsnelernen's grill from Oib
ladles' restaurant flew apart and Fred-
dy Lornker arose and d lilted with the
tide In the direction of his enchantress'
table.
"There's your little girl Tippy!" said
the Knchantresj who had nicknames
for all her victims as she haughtily
motioned the captain to an opposite
chair. "Looks washy and lovelorn
doesn't she?
"ilke an arrow" corrected Lady Con-
nie. Then she gave a little nod to the
EnelwRtress and another to Freddy and
tripped awaf leaving two Images be-
fore the mental vision of the warrior

Bho remained in Ignorance and wa3

"Hang It Nlta!" protested the slave
turning as scarlet as his moustache
poor Connio catlod It "auburn" "you're

"And then?" Tho Knchantress arch-
td her artfully darkened eyebrows.
"Oh! and then you know fully well"
growled the miserable Freddy whoso
power of repartee was as limited as
his power ot resistance "she'll bo hurtl

"Oh yea!" returned Freddy brilliant-
ly. "That Is I hope so! Though I've

"But there are no dead horses or

Lady Connio "and the high dlve'ls the

"So I must wait for my revenge" Bho

and watching tho aquatic gambol3 of

suits of light flannel bo It oxplalned in
deforence to tho proprieties).
"There's the Le Quesne" said Molly
"kissing her hand to a man In n striped

tain Lorrhcer!"
"And ue'a going In for the 30-yards-undsr-tb-j-water

"Ah they are on!" cnea Mrs. t
Quesne as the four competitors launch-

Journey. The Guardsman came up to

ho had accomplished three yards; tWi..
of the others gave In about tho mlddlt
of the course; but Freddy held on ana

"And tho prize 13 a diamond frog
