whatever the effect of this CONVEX
sation had been upon Edith, she con-
cealed II carefully, and Dave counted
II one of the fortunate events of his
life. He had been working under the
spur Of his passion for Irene, but now
this was to he supplemented by the
friendship of Edith. That 1t was more
than friendship on her part did not
occur to him at all, but he knew she
was interested in him and he was
doubly determined that he would
Justify her interest and confidence.
But just at this time another incl
dent occurred which was to turn the
food of his life into strange channels.
Dave had been promoted to the distinc-
ton of private office-a little six-by-
six 'box STALL" as the sport editor de-
scribed it-but, nevertheless, a dis
tinction shared only with the manag-
ing editor and Bert Morrison, compiler
of the woman's page. Her name was
Roberta, but she was masculine TO the
tips and everybody called her Bert.
Into Dawes sanctuary one after
noon in October came Coward. His
habitual cigarette hung from Its ac-
customed short tooth, and his round,
fiorid face seemed puffier than usual.
His aversion TO any exercise more Wig
orous than offered by billiard cue
was beginning to reflect itself in a
premature rotundity of figure.
"'Lo, Davel'' he said. "Alone"
almost" said Dave, without look
ing up from his typewriter. Then,
turning, he kicked the door shut with
his heel and said, "Shoot"
"This strenuous life is spelling your
good manners. Dave, my boy" said
Coward, lazily exhaling a thin cloud
of smoke. IF work made a man rich
you'd die millionaire. But Ii isn't
work that makes men rich. Ever think
of that?"
eff a man does not become rich by
work he has no right to become rich
at ALL" Dave retorted.
what do you mean by that word
right Dave? Define It,"
Haven't time. We go to press at
four"
That's the trouble with fellows like
you," Coward continued. "You
haven't time. You stick too close to
your jobs. You never see the better
chances lying all around. Now sup
pose you let them go to press without
you today and you listen to me for q
while"

pened. bur wnsn ne hung up the re-
ceiver he knew he had asked her to
ride with him again on Sunday. and
she had accepted. He had ridden with
her before. OF course. but he had never
asked her before. He felt that subtle
change had come over their relation
ship.
He was at the Duncan house earlier
than usual Sunday afternoon. but not
too early for Edith. She was dressed
for the occasion: she seemed more
fetching than he had ever seen her.
She led the way over the path fol-
lowed the Sunday before until again
they sat by the rushing water. Dave
had again been filed with sense of
Reenie Hardy. and his conversation
was disjointed and uninteresting. She
tried unsuccessfully to draw him out
with questions about himself; then
took the more astute tack of speaking
of her own past life. 1t had begun in
an eastern city, ever so many years
ago
Chivalry could not allow that to
pass. "Oh, not so very manyw said
Dave.
''How many?" she teased. Guess"
Nineteen" he hazarded.
"Oh, more than that"
"Twenty-one?"
"Oh. less than that" And their first
confidence was established.
Twenty" thought Dave to himself.
"Reenie must lNsabout twenty now"
''And was five when-when Jack
died." she went on. "Jack was my
brother, you know. He was seven. q.
Well, we were playing, and / stood on
the car tracks. signaling the motor
man, to make him ring his bell. On
came the car, with the bell changing,
and the man in blue looking very
cross. Jack must have thought was
waiting too long, for he suddenly
rushed on the track to pull me off,"
She stopped, and sat looking at the
rushing water.
81 heard him cry, oh, daddy, dad
dyr above the screech of the brakes"
SORROW is strange thing" she
went on, after pause. II don't pre-

tend to understand, but it seems to
have its place in life. / guess it's
natural law. Well" She paused
again, and when she spoke 1t was in
lower, more confidential note.
81 shouldn't have told you this,
Dave. / shouldn't know II myself. But
before that things hadn't been-well,
just as good as they might in our
home. They've been different
since"
The shock Of her words brought him
upright. To him 1t seemed that Mr..
and Mrs. Duncan were the ideal father
and mother. 1t was impossible to as
sociate them with a home where
things hadn't been just as good as
they might" But her half-confession
left no room for remark.
Mother told me-" she went on, af-
ter a long silence, and without looking
at him. "a few years ago, If some
one had only told me, when was your
age she said"
"Why do you tell me this?" he sud
denly demanded.
did you ever feel that you just had
to tell some one?"
1t was his turn to pause. Eyes," he
confessed, at length.
"Then tell me-"
So he led her down through the
tragedy of his youth and the lonely,
rudderless course of his boyhood. She
followed sympathetically to the day
when Doctor Hardy and his daughter
Irene became guests at the Eden
ranch. But before the end he stop
ped. Should he tell her all? Why not?
She had opened her life to him. SO he
told her of that last evening with
Irene, and the compact under the trees
and the moon. Her hand had fallen
into his as they talked, but here he
felt 1t slowly withdrawn. But he was
fred with the flame of love which had
sprung up in the breath of his reminis-
cence. And Edith was his friend
and his chum.
"And you have been true?" she said,
but her voice was distant and strained.
