Norton stopped, expecting a reply,
but the girl remained silent
you think I'm done for, that I've
lost my money, that's why you turned
from me so quickly he laughed scorn-
fully. "But I'll show you, you and
your laundering old father. I'll win
you yet, and I'll ruin your fathers po-
litical reputation. Tll"-
Are you quite sure about that?"
spoke a voice sharply behind the con-
gresham. He swung around vigor-
ously. Bud Haines had returned in
time to hear Nortons threat.
Yes, and while I'm doing that I'll
take time to show you up, too, some
how. l guess congressman's word
Will count against that Of cheap sec
retary-that's what Miss Langdon said
you were."
Carolina looked appealingly to
Haines to rid her Of the presence Of
this man, whose last words she knew
Haines would not believe.
But Norton had had his say. He re-
treated to the door.
Miss Langdon," he cried as he
backed out and away, you have an
idea that l am dishonest, but kindly
remember that, whatever you think l
am, never was hypocrite."
Haines advanced and procured a
chair for Miss I4angdon.
"I'm terribly sorry to have come
back at such q time" he began.
The girl cut him short with a ges-
ture,
II want to say to you," she said.
then halted-"that want to be friends
with you. l want you to forget the
happenings of yesterday-last evening

As Haines resumed his work Carroll

Avoiding the secretary's direct gaze.
she asked for her father.
HE ought to be back shortly. Miss
Langdon." responded Haines. "You can
wait here | must ask pardon for leav-
Ing, as must run over to the library"
As the secretary bowed himself out
or the door he almost collided with
Congressman Norton. Both glared at
each other and remained silent.
"Carolina," spoke Norton as he en-
tered, ~ hope-I know you won't allow
your father to influence you against
me-because of last night. p
Carolina would rather not have met
Charles Norton on this morning. She
had hardly slept for the night. She
had fought battle with herself. Her
father had shown her plainly the mis-
take she had made, She saw that her
influence had not been without effect
on Randolph. Probably for the first
time she realized that there are glory
and luxury, pleasure and prestige for
which too big price can be paid.
The senator's daughter turned slow
!y and faced the man she had prom
ised to marry.
"Charlie, ] have come to a decision.
| came here to talk with father about
It,"
Norton started toward Carolina, q
look Of apprehension on his face. He
gathered from the trend of her words
and her demeanor that she had turned
against him.
"You couldn't be SO cruel, Carolina, :"
he protested.
Charlie" she went on determlnedly,
II will always cherish our friendship,
our happy younger days down in Mis-
sissippi but must give up thinking of
you as my future husband. We've both
made mistake, mine probably greater
than yours, but I now am convinced
