home, and governess OF seventeen
year old Nina Carter. Ward.

his mothers attractive secretary.
Mrs. Carter's latest AFFAIR" Is with
young Anthony Pope. and the
youth Is taking II very seriously.
Presiding over the teacups this
summer afternoon, Harriet is pro-
foundly disturbed by the arrival OF
a visitor, Royal Blondln. Next
day, at a tea party in the city.
Blondin makes himself agreeable
to Nina, and leaves a deep impress
sion on the unsophisticated girl.
Harriet's agitation over the appear
ance or Blondin at "Crownlands'
is explained BY the fact that no
had been a disturbing element IN
her life ten years before. and she
fears him. The man is an avowed
adventurer, living on tho gullibility
OF the idle rich. He frankly an
nounces to Marriet his intention OF
marrying Nina, who, as the daugh-
ter Of the wealthy Richard Carter.
Is a highly desirable "catch." and
urges her to aid him. She Is In

thoughtfully. Harriet began thorough
ly to enjoy herself. If they were all
furious, at least 1t was not with her.
She speculated, as she gathered In
her tricks. Was it conceivable that
Richard did not enjoy the discovery
of the tete-a-tete dinner? But Isabelle
had often been equally indlscreet, and
he had never seemed to resent it be-
fore. Harriet knew that Isabelle was
Ill at ease; she suspected that Tony
was furious. The old lady was OBJ
viously quiverlng with batIied inter-
est and curiosity.
After three rubbers the game ended
suddenly; Richard said he had some
letters TO write, and was keeping Fox
Whiting in the library; Anthony scrib-

passionate dark eyes to his. She was

But Isabelle seemed to have nothing

Immediately after breakfast the

Fred had hurried nway after his hnsty
meal; the boys were turned out into
the backyard, which Pip was expected
to rnke while he watched his small
brother.
Harriet's heart ached deeply for
them hll as she watched the Jersey
marshes from the car window few
hours later. Josephine was to be
stenographer when she finished high
school. and little Julia had expressed
an angelic ambition to teach a kinder
garten class some day. Nina, at their

her through and through, and while
