Austin Dasonant had earned for himself, perhaps justly, the title of a woman hater, but there was something in this woman's ines that arrested his attention.
"An interesting type," he thought, picturing a novel in which Miss Mayns should be vividly portrayed.
Agatha was soon won by the nameless charin of Reta Magne, and a certain intimney aprang up between the two girls. It was new for Agatha to base someone with whom to disousa chillons, and ather moatters dear to the feminine heart. In all of these Miss Mayko prored herself on expert. With a few dexterous tonobes sho imparted a style to Agatha's garments aud persuaded her to change the way in which she did her hair.
"You have such pretty hair," she said. "It is a pity to put it all away on one tight knot when you could make soft coils that would maok better suit the shape of your head." As she spoke she deftly twisted the fair hair and bade Agatha admire the effect.
"You are a clever hairdresser," admitted Agatha.
And yet," with a glanceat the other's wavy locks, you can't get much practice with your own.
Mine is not the sort that grows very long, and since I have ont it it has grown much thicker. I think I profer it short to that dreadful half and half condition. I am conceited enough to think this style particularly becoming to me." Reta smiled as she spoke and looked at Agatha with an expression that robbed her words of all conceit.
