CHAPTER ~,

NOoPyFiSnt, 1919, star Company.
IT HE week following Hugh's
declaration of love flew too
swiftly for the betrothed
pair. Hugh lived in a state of bliss,
scarcely able to believe in his own
good fortune. Doris grew prettier
by the day, glowing with the Joy
Of life and the excitement of being
loved
Mrs. Courtney was almost as
happy as her older child. 1t was
more interesting to talk to Doris of
her lover and her future than to
read sentimental novels.
Mr.. Rodney and Laura came to
call in due form on Hugh's fiance.
Laura kissed Doris affectionately;
Daniel Rodney spoke some graceful
words of welcome to the girl who
was to be his daughter-in-law. If
he wished that Hugh's choice had
fallen upon the younger Courtney
sister he did not betray this by look
nor manner.
Indeed, everything transpired to
make Doris content with her lot
Even her wish to have her engage
ment kept from the public was for
a while was humored-
She related this fact to her sister
on the evening of the day on which
the Rodneys hal made their formal
visit
Hugh had, of course, called this
evening. but had gone home earlier
than usual. Doris bed room was on
the second floor, adjoining her
mothers. Ruth had her quarters on
the third floor. an arrangement
which, she declared, suited her per-
fectly.
1T is like Ruth to want to be
away of upstairs by herself" Mrs.
Courtney had told Doris when the
girls were old enough to wish for
separate rooms. But / am glad you
care to keep your old place next to
me-"
On this particular evening, she
looked into her mothers room on
her way upstairs. As usual, Mrs.
Courtney was reading. but glanced
up with a smile as her daughter
entered.
Hugh Leaves Early.
Hugh gone already?' she asked.
Yes" Doris nodded. He was
feeling a bit under the weather,
so went early. 1 am going up for a
little chat with Ruth. / will be
down after a while"
"All right. darling" the mother
sssented. returning eagerly TO her
story.
Ruth welcomed her sister bright
ly- Come on in, dear" as she
heard Doris step outside her door.
Il was just wishing you would hap
pen in. j have not had a chance 10
tell you how glad / am that the
Courtneys are so much pleased AT
the prospect OF having you in the
FAMILY. Mother told me all about
their call"
Yes, i was sorry you were out"
Doris reJoined. II am sure you
would have been interested in hear
ing the nice things they said. And
they approve of my not announcing
my engagement yet. i explained to
Mr.. Rodney that would rather wait
until Hugh was quite sure of where
he was going to live-and every
thing. He said I was quite right
You see, Ruth, conhdentially, at
is not much fun for an engaged girl
when the man she's engaged to is
away. Other men don't ask her to
go about with them much-for sh.
is labeled. Taken" So would
rather wait until Hugh comes back
to New York, or until a little while
before you are married"
And what does Hugh say to
this?''
He was disappointed at first
then he said that he supposed I =
