Wait till you see my Jin." re- piled. "onIy I'm threading the way you'll plunge in and vanap nlna."'
 Miss May blushed. It took all the withered sadness from her cheeks and made me realize how young forty-six may be when it's happy and has the assurance of being charming stiM.
 "I'il wager your husband will be kind to me-" she said simply. eThe man you love would have nice feel ings about lonely oId maids. But he wouldn't have as much time for one as that adorable Lacy boy seems to think he has. You know. 1t seems funny to me that dne looking, up- standing man like Ralph shouldn't be gobbled up by some lovely gira. But he and that Park act as if they don't know any girls worth a pinch O snuff. They told me if they hadn't found me to beau around they'd have had to go on being stag everywheres."
 'tThey don't know the right girls. I said thoughtfuily. That's what lonesomeness is-not being lucky enough to find the right friends-the really congenial ones.'
 eff we take them in hand and find girls for them"-.- ventured Miss May.
 
 your boys right over to some one else just when you've found them and started to enjoy thena!" cried, deeply stirred by Miss Mays utter lack of selfishness.
 "Of course. Those boys need friends. You ought to have been there to hear them going on about how wonderfully you are. I wish you could spare a little time for them. r{a1 1yxry sna "a mire you so much.''
 "I admire him,koo," agreed. tI think he's fine man. His ability in business was the first thing that i'm pressed me. But pretty soon began to see that he was--real folks. I've a feeling that his friendship for our business and his interest in dt are what has put us on the rnap."

But you're young and a woman in the world. where he hasn't had lime to get any training. think he feels kind of awkward socially. and it seems to me what would sven up for all he's done for us would be for you to take him under your wing"

 First better get him over his shy ness about all but business women,' advised Miss May "He's ot sure of , himself in what he calls the social game. can see that from how he talks to Park And Parks so bored to death by society that 1t doesn't occur to him to help break Ralph in. So I kind of think 1t would be no moro than our gratitude demands if you were to make that your job"
 ''Bless you, you dear thingi" cried. "T'u take your adviee.'
 ''It'll be worth your wtaiae,'' said Miss May. And wish to goodness we had a place here in the firm for Park. He'd be so much happier if he had something useful to do."
 That may come some day" twfnkied. We seem to have added a branch-sort of a social service for young men who haven't round them selves"
 Young men who haven't found themselves" repeated familiar voice, rauoous and croaking,
