THE BETTER MAN
LXIX.--THE LURE OF AFRICA

When the delft waiter brought a bot tie of delicious sparkling burgundy that only cost half-a-croWn, her astonishment continued.
 The vineyards aren't far from here, at High Constantia. We'll motor past them tomorrow" Glyn remarked. The scenery's exquisite round there"
 The restaurant was full of smart, well-groomed, good-looking men, and pretty women. Most of them wore evening dress. The women wore hats with their low dresses. in French fashion. One very pretty girl, who was all in black and a black tulle hat with paradise in 1t bowed to Glyn across the room.
 That's Mrs. Endicott. She was aw- fully good to me once, when I had fever" he exclaimed. returning the salutation. You must meet her. She goes everywhere"

that you can hardly tell 1t from the rest of the fabric"
 The dream of the little room with tho rocking chair bsEide Aunt Vir- ginia faded slowly. And out of the nowhere came another fantastic fam tasy.
 Instead of my great. great grand mother, it was l who was blushingly pushing out my silken-clad foot that the man ebside me might fit the ssaall silver slipper he held in his hand. A little thrill trembled through me. My breath came warm and sweet, and as the kneeling figure raised his head I saw the wonderfully handsome face of-of Theodore Strat- ton
 A sudden needle prick in my finger brought me abruptly from fantasia to the land of reality-to tho stern fact that I was only little girl alone in a room high up on hilltop of a strange city, prosaicaiiy darntng a rent in a silk stocking.
 I never regretted that dream. If it wasn't for our illusions life would be unbearable. Youth has its dreams and age is memories. And thingo are, usually, as they should be.
 Aunt Virginia softened her hard existence with the memories of great, great grandmother's conquestss while I dreamt of love that shall come to me in the guiee of q modern lnight errant: for never had I seen Theodore Stratton that he had not given me feeling that I was his 'LAsSie Faire."
 It was a very happy girl that closed her eyes to waking dreams that night. Life wasn't SO hard aftor all. I had made good friends had fosnd and where I hoped for it. And I had become one of the great army ot girls who were struggling upward upward toward tho light
 Out of my window I saw a bril- liantiy twinkling star. I held out my hands to it It was an omen and looking at 1t with all my hopes upon my lips l sank to sleep.
 The telephone tangled. I had asked the phone girl to vaken me- It seemed hardly possible that morning had come So soon. For a moment did not know where I was and jumping out of bed quickly before I was fairly awake. l bumepd into ny trunk.
 AS in a kaleidoscope the dreams of tho night before passed through my mind only to be brushed away by the realities before me.
 In my nightdress I went into the little kitchenette and started the per colater. With the ice pick made two hc.es in the can of condensed cream and smiled as l thought of what grzndfather's opinion would be of girl who would exchange home on the tree-cfad grassy slopes of Vir- ginia for what I now had, where the lowing herds produced fresh cream in abundance to be served by wiling, If black hands in a sunlit dining room furnished with ancestral oak and silver heiriooms. Here one enjoyed coffee from a cracked cup coffee muddied with milk from out of a can and self-served from a shelf.
 Then and there I knew that home need not be a stately old southern mansion or even a palace of brick or marble. It might be the uniest place in the world inclosed by four walls. It might-yes 1t might-be within the sacred inclosure of two loving arms. |

DAY DREAMS

 However, when I bade Jack sril- ing goodnight I told him rather wistfully that wished he were going to be out at the studio with me the next morning.

 Drawing the thread through and through brought dreams that were far away from motion pictures, lar away from Los Angeles.
 Once again I was sitting in the lit tic rocking chair by Aunt Virginia's side listening to her gentle voice saying: Be very careful, child, to pick up every thread by itself. You must know that to be able to darn a fine silk stocking we'll is one of the accomplishments of lady. To- morrow l shall show you the ones your grandmother wore when she danced with Lafayette.

 They dined together in the station restaurant that night, for Camille was in no mood for Dolly and her cronies. Glyn telephoned the hotel, and promised not to keep Camille too late.
 It was charming. six-course dln- ner in a delightful restaurant, and it was reasonable, too.
 "Such a meal would be four times the price in London Camille ex- claimed, forgetfui of conventions.
