"Then what are you doing here

did you lose him?
May shrugged her shoulders.

marry him" she indifferently said.
Cant a woman change her mind
once in a while?"
She had decided in flash that
she was not going to tell Dan any
thing about her affairs. She re-
mcmbered that Carlotta had hintcd
that he was not to be trusted any
more than Herbie was!
"You hear from him don't your

May had her doubts about this,
but she said nothing. She leaned
back, studying Dams lean, clever
face. He had the restless, eager
look Of man who is constantly on
the lookout for an affair with a wo-
man. There was about him that air
of rakishness that all women find
attractive in men.

him.
And then she saw that he was
not listening to her. He had turned
and was staring down the aisle of
the train.
May stared also. At the far end
of the car sat a girl whom May
mentally termed a "dizzy" blond. 4.
blond whose observation-disclosures
undoubtedly came from a vanity
case. She was dressed in deep pur-
pie, and she returned Dams
stare with unashamed interest.
AS May looked at her, she smiled
at him with wide blue eyes that
were like the movable eyes of a
French doll.

May asked idly.
Dan started, laughed and looked
away.
"Scarch me-" he said carclcssly.

May said she hadn't, and two min

remarked.
