 She found Patterson quarreling with q property man over the responsibility for broken vase. He ignored her till at length she ventured to stammer:

 "So I see. Well, sit down some where"
 Finding q seat was no easy task Every piece of furniture she selected became at once the object of the scene shifter's attack and she had to take flight.
 Members of the company strolled in paused at the mailbox and went to their various cells.
 Eventually Patterson found that all the company was on hand and In good health. He said to Daphne. Every body is here and nobody sick, so you needn't stay after the curtain goes up.'
 But she wanted te learn her trade, so she loitered about, feeling like an uninvited poor relation. The members of the company came from their lairs, looking odd and unreal In their paint. They seemed to be surprised that Daphne was still in existence Eldon gave her curious smile of greeting.
 She heard the call boy crying "Over- ture" about the corridors She heard the orchestra playing 'the kings piece" Then 1t struck up march that sounded remote and irrelevant. There was loud swish which she sup posed to be the curtain going up. An actor and an actress in white flannels with tennis rackets under their arms linked hands and skipped into the well of light.

CHAPTER xL.
sltink out

She woke early next morning. Ii was Just six o'clock. She remembered that her father would be arriving in two hours. She decided that if would be pleasant duty to surprise the poor old neglected codger by meeting him.
 At the Grand Central station Daph- ne found that she was nearly m hour too early for the train. It amused her to take her breakfast at the lunch counter, to chamber on the high stool and eat the dishes of haste-a cup of coffee and q ham sandwich. It was pleasant to wander about alone in this atmosphere of speed, the suburban trains, like feed pipes. spouting streams of workers. the outbound trains drawing their passengers to far off destinies as if by suction.
 Al length it was time for the train. Daphne went to the rope barrier op- posite the door of entry and waited in ambush for her father
 At length she made out rather shabby man carrying his own luggage.
 
 and seedier than she remembered. He did not expect to be met He was looking idly at the new statioh. He had not been to New York since 1t had been thrown open.
 She ran to him. He dropped his old suitcase on the toes of the man follow ing him and embraced Daphne with fervor He devoured her with his eyes and kissed her again and told her that she was prettier than ever. All about them there were little groups embrae- ing and kissing. There was wonder ful business in reunions.
 When her father said T haven't had my breakfast; have you?" she lied affeetionately, No"
 Lets have some breakfast to- gether"
 "Fine," said Daphne. Well go to the Biltmore"
 "Kind of expensive. Isn't it?" he asked anxiously.
 "It's my treat" she said
 This amused him enormously. "So you're going to treat, eh?'
 Yep she said.
 Where did you get all the money?'
 I'm a working lady now
 He laughed again and shook his head over her.
 What did you mean by saying you were q working lady?" said Wesley when they were seated at the table and breakfast was ordered. Your mother wrote me something about hay. | ing little disagreement with you | She seemed to be right worried. so I thought I'd better run on to see if I couldn't sort of smooth things over. I'm glad you came to meet me. We can talk without interruption for once. Tell me all about it."
 She told him the whole story of her decision to join the great social rev olution that is freeing women from the slavery of enslaving the men. Her peroratlon was her new watchword . "I don't want to take any more money from you
 Why honey" he protested, "I love to give 1t to you. I only wish I had ten times as much. 1 couldn't dream of letting you work You're too pirty Whats that young Wimburn cub mean by letting you work?"
 "Oh, he's bitterly opposed to it, so I gave him his ring"
