days of encouraging friendliness, only
a few appealing glances from uplifted

ease. the gowns and cars and homes,
the position of young Mrs. Ward Car

She had let him turn her face up, In

her hungrily upon the lips, and she

with the JOY of knowing himself be-

knew that she was casting about for
some honeyed and yenomous farewell,
when the muffled thrill of the bell
came to them, and the footsteps of
Ella were heard. Immediately after

He met Harriet at the door.

Don't keep Miss Field she is max

Richard Carter gave his mother the
peculiarly warm smile that was espe-

Harriet, turning for just nod and
smile, heard no more. But as she en-
tered the lift, the girl said to herself,
with passionate sort of gratitude :
"Oh, like you You're the only genu-
inc and unselfish and kind-hearted one
in the whole crowdl'
She went down to the street, and
saw the small car waiting. He was
driving himself today. With great
sense of comfort and relaxation Har-
riet got into it, and was comfortably
established, and tucked in snugly,
when Richard came down. He smiled
at seeing her, got into his own seat /;
the machine slipped smoothly into mo-

to glide by.
Ever think how Illuminating 1t
would be, Miss Field, if we kept list

later?"
Il suppose so!' the girl said, little
surprised, and yet with fervor. WED
have a fresh bunch then, and be wor-
rying away just as hard!"
The spontaneous response in her
tone made Richard Carter laugh.
Harriet was content to enjoy this
restful interval between the hurry and
crowding of Linda's house and the
currents and cross-currents that she
must encounter at Crownlands. She
watched the green country go by, the
trees silent and heavy with their rich
foliage, the villages blazing with the
last June roses.
They flew by the great gates of the
country club, and turned in past

1t was delightful to get back into
the familiar atmosphere, to catch the
fragrance of flowers in the orderly
gloom downstairs, to take off her hat
and her hot, dusty clothing, and have
a leisurely hot bath; to put on fresh
and fragrant summer wear, and to go
downstairs presently, rejoicing in be-
ing young and comfortable, and ire

look, its honest admiration and friend
liness. augmented by her own glance
at a chance mirror on her way up
stairs, stayed with her pleasantly.
At one end of the terrace there was
an awning whose shade fell upon the
brick flooring and the jars of bloom
and this afternoon 1t also shaded lisa
belle, in a basket chair, and the big
hound, and Tony Pope. Harriet cast
them a passing glance, and wondered

thoughts as she returned to Crown

own rather disreputable racing car,
out in one of the clean, graveled
spaces near the garage.
Harriet felt a little quickening of
her pulses as she saw him. There was
no mistaking the pleasure in his eyes
as she came close.

DIR. A. D. Finlayson, of the
