Nellie had not given notice at the Of
fee OF her intended marriage as she had
planned to finish out the month there.
So she went TO work as usual the fol-
lowing day and no one but few init
mate friends knew of her changed plans.
At first she saw Rob several times a
week as usual; but soon more and more
time elapsed between his calls, and one
day she realized that she had not seen
him for two weeks. The knowledge
made a strange empty feeling in her
heart. She really loved him and hoped
some day to marry him and the thought
OF his leaving her life gave her feel
ing Of alarm. Two months had gone by
since the day she decided to postpone
the wedding and for the first time in
that period she felt twinge of regret.

important things than potatoes At %

II Gas Saturday afternoon and half
holiday for her. On her way home she
met Rob unexpectedly, and at the sight
of his familiar figure she hurried for
ward eagerly and said: Rob, il has
been a long time since | have seen you.
Surely you are not going to drop me
altogether
As she spoke she was startled al the
change in him. His neat appearance
had been her chief delight in the old
days but now he seemed positively
shabby He needed a shave and his
face seemed thinner than usual.
Let's go ever 10 the park and sit
down." he answered soberly. TT is as
warm as spring and will not keep you
long. but want to say a few words TO

"Why-why--where am II" Martha
was blinking her eyes in bewilderment as
she gazed about her in the dressing
room on the tenth floor Of the big de

A little red-haired girl was holding
smelling salts to her nose and tanning
her gently.
That's all right; you're all right now,
Girlie. You tainted on the way up to
Mr. Parsons office and they took YOU
in here You're all right"
Martha Howland sat up and looked
around her Then her gaze fell on lit

in the rest room.
This is the girl who carried you in, "
began the little red-haired girl by way
of introduction, but Martha heard no
further.
