you like Mr.. Nelson?"
"Of course" Nancy admitted
without much enthusiasm. HE
seems quite nice"
IT think he's adorable Edith said
warmly Daddy says he came with
wonderful recommendations. Well,
thank heaven, didn't go away to
school"
With a sickening twinge .of jeal-
ousy Nancy thought, "Oh, If you
only had gone away I might have
had chance"
Although he insisted he was a
"Swede" there was about him moth
ing of the raw-boned Scandinavian.
His manner was quiet, self-con-
tanned.
She felt behind his reserve an in
tense pride, a pride which no doubt
was inherited from generations OF
high-born ancestors. He was the
kingly type, one accustomed to rule.
Nancy had been conscious Of his
superiority even before she had met
him.
When the men re-entered the liv-
ing room Edith suggested that they
dance.
IT can't said Eric Nelson. 1--WE
never had time to learn"
Never too late" Edith cried gay
ly. "We1l take turns teaching you"
But after the first attempt Nancy
said she was too tired" The touch
of his arms made her awkward and
self conscious. But she wanted to
cry when she saw the other girl
smiling up into his face.
With deep, unreasoning instinct
she felt she had belonged to him
centuries ago In some previous ex-
istence. Perhaps he had been a king
and she his beloved little slave.
I'm afraid I'll have to CO." she
said alphabetically at 10 o'clock.
1t has been a stupid evening.
Dragged out interminably to the
accompaniment of dance tunes and
Edith's chatter. Never had Nancy
known her friend to be so talkative.
Never had she resented to fierce
ly the quiet, patronizing manner
used toward her. She told herself
she hadn't chance. No use to
attempt to compete with girl In
Edith's circumstances.
Her one desire now was to creep
down the hill to her own home.
But when she prepared to leave
Eric insisted on accompanying her.
Edith agreed brightly.
"She wants him to see the con-
trast," thought Nancy bitterly.
Well, let himl He might as we'll
find it out now as later. She would
never make apologies or act as If
she cared.
Edith kissed her In parting.
"See you tomorrow, dear. Re-
member, Mr. Nelson, expect you
to keep Up those dancing lessons.
If you don't come back soon I shall
have to call you"
IT shan't give you a chance" he
promised. .
Walking beside him through the
quiet street Nancy felt her spirits
sink lower and lower.
