cheerful moment. Gloria, however,
would not let her lover be snubbed %
arrantly. She knew that argument
with this imperative relative was
worse than useless, so she merely nod
ded her head in obedience and sat
about to circumvent her, fiuttering
about again while her aunt returned
to her own list. Gloria annexed an
invitation, an envelope, and pen, and
the deed was done. An invitation to
Mr.. Richard Freneau reposed in the
basket with those all ready for the
mail, and with elaborate innocence
Gloria danced over to her ignorant
relation.
When that invitation was received
at the office of Freneau G Mulry IL
seemed like message from heaven
to the almost broken brokers. The
business was in fearful shape and
they were about ready to close up
shop unless some miracle should oc-
cur to tide them over.
Mulry had been pacing the floor,
discussing ways and means; Freneau
was disgustedly beating a tattoo on
the desk, when the office boy entered
with the mail. On the top lay the
large envelope. Opening it, Freneau
read that Mr.. Pierpont Stafford and
Miss Gloria Stafford requested the
pleasure of his company at a debut
dance on certain afternoon.
Freneau proudly showed it to Mulry.
Mulry blew long whistle and said:
What right have you got to get this ?"
Il saved her life," Freneau replied.
Mulry laughed, "Ah, go on" When
Freneau told him his version of the
story, wildly describing how little

OF Florida and taken prisoner by a
tribe OF Seminoles, and how Freneau
had tracked her through the wilder.
ness and saved her from the young
chief who was determined to make
the girl his squaw, Freneau's language
had all the vividness that only fiction
achieves. But Mulry still laughed:
You never saved a kitten from q
poodle" He knew Freneau.
Freneau was furious, but Mulry
looked him up and down with a con-
temptuous admiration. Then, sober

flooded the corridors she did not get
a glimpse of him. Her father kept
watch over her and Gloria went home
amazed at the cantankerous meddle-
.someness of parents in love affairs.
She told her father that he ought
to be in better business than playing
the demon chaperon, but he only
smiled. She was all he had and he
wanted to keep her to the last mo-
ment. He wanted also to make some
investigation of Freneau's behavior
and his reliability as a son-in-law He
had heard but little about him, but that
little was not good.
The next day a rescuer appeared in
unexpected guise. Her aunt, the great
Hortensia Stafford, called to see her,
raved over her beauty and hailed her
as a graduate from the ranks of girl
dom.

ty," she said, "and take up the duties

Pierpont violently insisted that
Gloria was only a child. But he was
only a father and merely a brother

as a nuisance. Gloria embraced her
fervently and thought her an angel

Gloria made out list of those she
wanted. There were dozens Of girl
friends and few young men she had
known from baby-carriage days. She
wrote among these the name Richard
Freneau with loving fiourishes. Aunt
Hortensia ran him through with one
straight thrust of her deadly blue
pencil. Gloria protested, but Horton

full suitors, that the AFFAIR was like a
merrymaking in the gigantic conserv-
atory. AT the foot of the steps stood
a footman, Respondent in powdered
hair, with silk stockings, red velvet
coat and kneebreeches At the edge
of the receiving line the old butler,
Griggs, kept calling each guests name
clearly and distinctly, so that the
hostesses need not puzzle their wits
over who was who.
Gloria's heart pounded proudly be-
meath her chiffons. 1t was not half
bad to be young queen in ones own
palace and at last to be considered
real part of it. Yet as guest after
guest was presented to her aunt she
ness, then her eyes went beyond and
her ears strained for the magical
name of her idol-Freneau.
She did, indeed, give a little extra
honor to one old friend. AS DR.. Royce
mounted the stairs Gloria ran forward
from the line to greet him specially.
She presented him to her aunt, and
his heart glowed warmly with Gloria's
welcome. Aunt Hortensia's keen eyes
lit up with pleasure as she greeted
him, too for something about the look
of his eye and the grip Of his hand
gained her worldly wise favor. But
Gloria's affection for Royce was not
love, and when he turned back to her
for word he found her distract He
sighed and passed on to Lois, waving
her little hand to someone in the
ascending stream of guests.
When DR.. Royce had shaken hands
with the rest of the hostesses he saw
Freneau already holding Gloria's hand.
There was an expression of ownership
on bis face, and he made no bones
about incidentally holding up line
of indignant guests Royce saw the
look of alteration in Gloria's coun-
tenance, and he burned with righteous
jealousy.
From this time on through the en-
tire afternoon Royce made himself

from Freneau's hand, he slapped him
on the back and said:
"rhe main thing is that she thinks
you saved her, so it's her turn to save
you. Marry her quick We can bor-
row big wad on your father-in-law's
mere name"
Freneau saw the point and prom
ised. His triumphant smile did not
last long.
His mind shifted back and forth
like a shuttlecock, weighing all the
chances. There was his ENHANCEMENT
with Lois. What double-dyed fool
he had been to fiirt with Gloria's Sis
ter-in-lawl How very careless of himl
She might spoil everything. She would
be bound to see and know something
of his courtship.
He felt sure he could win Gloria
over again as he had won her heart
five years before, provided ne could
still pose in the light Of a courageous
and faithful sutton. But Lois must be
kept from running everything. His
best chance lay in speed, he thought,
and his ability to keep Lois quiet.
His face cleared and his most
charming smile was turned to Mulry.
"All right. Well marry her"
Standing at the head of the famous
Stafford stair, in line with her aunt,
her girl friends, and Lois, was the
most exquisite debutante of the sea-
son. Aunt Hortensia had seen many
in her long life, but she heaved
small polite sigh of great pride and
contentment as she glanced over the
imperious young figure at her side.
Miss Stafford had insisted that sim.
plicity be the keynote of her niece's
attire at this afternoon reception In
her honor; but the cunning of the
dressmaker had contrived to cause
the appearance of simplicity over
most complicated study in beauty line.
Yet above the wealth of fabric the
joyous youth of Gloria shone forth
transcendent.
The house was so filled with flow
ers sent by admiring friends and hope.

Gloria had had enough of the guests.
She wished that they would all goI
home. Instead they were still pouring
In. The slam of the doors of their
cars could be heard even here, as mo-
tor after motor rolled up, emptied it's

and rolled away
What Gloria wanted now was q soli-l
tude for two. Freneau was more than
willing. Seeing a young man coming
to whom she had promised several
dances and given none, Gloria fed
among the crowd, motioning Freneau
to follow. She led the way through
the dense wilderness of the conserva-
tory to marble bench, appropriately
placed at the feet of fountain where
little Old marble Cupid presided.
The trysting place was evidently pop
ular, for Gloria flushed one brace of
plover when she parted the branches.
She did not recognize the young
man and woman who scurried away,
but she understood their longing for
quiet and would have apologized IL
they had fingered. But now that they
were gone she smiled at Freneau and

He drew closer to the delectable witch,
only to see over her shoulder the eyes
of an earlier witch.
1t was Lois. Fearing that Gloria
might see her she retreated. But Doc

had seen Lois face as she watched
the lovers. He understood now the
fever that he had noted on her face
while before. He understood, coo,
that he had an ally in his battle
against Freneaus prosperity with
Gloria-not an altogether desirable
ally, but all allies are welcome In
love or war. And this was both.

FOURTH EPISODE

Gloria went as If blindfolded
through the glittering throngs in the
corridor Of the Metropolitan. It was
cruel humiliation to her young heart
not even to be recognized by the man
she had waited for through five eter-
nal years, the man she had Loyalty
considered herself engaged to all that
time.
But Freneau was not long in finding
out his mistake. Gloria had run away
from her father to run to Freneau,
only to run away from him in turn.
Old Stafford, looking for Gloria, en-
countered Freneau, shook him warmly
by the hand and asked; "Have you
seen my daughter?"
Then he realized with a shock that
the man Freneau was engaged to his
daughter, and that the respite of five
years was up. The mortgage on
Glorla's heart was due. Stafford
glowered at the handsome young
enemy of his happiness.
But Freneau had suddenly realized
that Gloria was Gloria. He made
haste to pursue her. He caught her
just as she paused at the door Of the
Stafford box and put up her absurdly
small handkerchief to catch the alb,
surdly large tears as they escaped
over her pink petal cheeks.
Freneau deftly turned his slight
into a compliment:
Miss Stafford-Gloria I was SO
dazzled when I saw you that couldn't
speak. You were tremendously pref
ty as a-as a kid; but now, with your
hair up and all this grandeur on,
yeu're-you're a goddess. And you're
mine, aren't you? You're still minel"
His impetuous charge staggered her,
but she was too deeply hurt to for
give him at once. She shook her
head dolefully and punished him with
sorrow rather than with anger. In
spite of all he could say she slipped
into the box, closed the door almost
on his fingers and vanished.
He cursed his stupidity and turned
away. He joined a group of men
seated in box among them his part
ner, Frank Mulry, who was beaming
like full moon wrapped up in broad
cloth and white linen. Freneau began
peerlng about the house through his

opera glass. He fastened them on
Gloria where she sat brooding bitterly.
The first great meeting with her lover
had failed to live up to the dreams
she had been cherishing for five years.
! Her father leaned over and tried to
interest her in the opera.
Boris Godunow' is my favorite
opera" he said. and Amato is In
splendid form tonight"
: But Gloria hardly heard the sonor-
Gus orchestra or the laundering
chorus. The music was little more to
her than loud wind blowing about
her the ashes of her dead romance.
BY and by the opera glasses went
rowing idly along the boxes. They
suddenly brought Freneau before her
with jump. He seemed very near and
the lenses of his opera glasses were
like eyes staring into her own. She
could not help smiling back into his
appealing smile. Indeed, when he be-
gan to signal her to meet him in the
corridor she was tempted to consent.

would be a frightful adventure, more
exciting than her wanderings IN the
