[Illustration: "'If she's as much of a winner as all that,' began Cameron with decision, 'I want to meet her immediately--'"] "Is it ?" asked Stephanie of Neville.

Some few business men may smirk at their stenographers; some few painters may behave in the same way to their models.

I fancy it's the exception to the rule in any kind of business--isn't it, Sandy ?" "Certainly," said Cameron, hastily.

"I never winked at my stenographer--never! never! Will you deal, Mr.Querida ?" he asked, courteously.
"I should think a girl like that would be interesting to know," said Lily Collis, who had come up behind her brother and Stephanie Swift and stood, a hand on each of their shoulders, listening and looking on at the card game.
"That is what I wanted to say, too," nodded Stephanie.

"I'd like to meet a really nice girl who is courageous enough, and romantic enough to pose for artists--" "You mean poor enough, don't you ?" said Neville.
