to break the news OF their mar
riage. Though family pride was
affronted. 1t was tacitly agreed to
forgive Daisy, and take Daisy's
husband into the fold. They drove
up in state to see her, and she
cooked a hot dinner for them and
were relieved when they were
gone. But she was little cocky
next day to be able to tell Mrs.
Angle, who lived across the way,
that they were her people, and that
her father was president Of the

Thereafter Mrs. Angle was quite
friendly. and interested In the at.
fairs Of the young couple. Mrs.
Rutherford, their next-door neigh.
Dor, was too. These ladies visited
each other in the afternoons and
gossiped over their needlework.
They always spoke OF the Will
liams family, agreeing that John
Henry was a fine young man, and
Daisy a nice girl, though they
did not approve of abbreviated
skirts nor the boyish bob on a
married woman.
One day in the early summer a
man drove up to the Williams
gate in car bearing a New York
license. The two ladies', from Mrs.
Angles front porch, were startled

they to see her fling her arms

Miss Crosby started busting her

important operation in the world.

jerked out.
Nancy had to admit that she
had not, that everything in the
office was new to her.

Nancy jumped.

She didn't seem to consider that
Nancy had very little sleep for
three nights and that she hadn (
stayed in bed until noon as Ginger
had.
The telephone kept on ringing,

In another moment she was CALI

Nancy's face went white. De-
spite her declaration, still warm on
her lips, that she wasn't going to-
take things 70 hard, and that she
didn't care what anybody thought
of her, the brRvadO OF her words
died when she heard that Mrs.
O'Day was at the other end Of the

did was to bring in the morning

that she couldn't hear over the

But the girl uttered sharp
little cry at the sight OF Bob, and
flew to him, both hands out

staring into each others eyes.

citedly: it seemed that they were
old friends.
Mrs. Angle and her daughter
went to the city one night to at
tend the movies, and were very
late returning. A brilliant moon
lit up the countryside too. Turn.

she stiffened righteously. He
certainly did," she said.
Early next morning she has

press her fears. So John Henry

Nancy never felt 30 embarrassed
In her life as she did when she
pulled open the heavy door to the
offices of the Wear-Eyer knitting
Mills later that morning.

said. II know just what II win

But that Ii exactly what Howard
Wescott did not do.
To Nancy's surprise he was al.
ready at his desk when she arrived,
though 1t was still before $40.
Miss Crosby hadn't come In. The
door to the inner office was open
when Nancy appeared and her en-
trance made him look up. Before
she had time to hang up her coat
and hat he got up from his desk
and came into the outer office.
Good morning, Miss O'Day," he
said. Hope you're not so disturbed
by the unpleasantneas of last night
that you can't see the day
through
He laughed and came forward,
putting his hand on her arm and
squeezing it. Nancy noticed that
there was a patch OF black and
blue under one of his eyes and
that there was cut just in front
OF his right ear. He made no ref
erence to his injuries, whatever.
In a suave, self possessed manner
he carried off the situation so well

Think In Choosing Books
BY Lucy Lowell

It IL q cause Of constant wonder
to me that certain Of us who would
no more think of choosing our
friends carelessly or In a hurry or
because some trivial external fea-
ture Of dress attracted the eye or
some accidental arrangement of
letters In a name made a sound
pleasant to the ears-those OF us,
I say, who never in this world
would choose a friend because of
such inane reasons, nevertheless

able and this furnishes me with
food for bewildered thought.

tendency of persons whose judg-

fore him, less than twelve hours
before. That within that short
time he had been arrested and his
name embIazoned in the news
papers.
His grooming was perfection, his
linen immaculate. All these details
Nancy noticed at 4 glance, before
she answered him.
'Mr. Wescott, I'm terribly sorry,
I wouldn't have had this thing
happen for the world. This Mr..

Don't try to explain" Howard
Wescott said. II know all about

into Nancy's face. so searchingly,
that She was half afraid. His eyes
feasted on her hair.

The two Of them heard q gentle
cough, and both whirIed to see
Harriet Crosby standing in the
doorway. Nancy could feel what
the other girl was thinking, though
Miss Crosby's face was quite ex.
pressionless.
She's thinking I'm common:
that I'm just 4 vamp who's forced
her way into this office" Nancy
thought.
That's just what Harriet Crosby
did think. As yet, Nancy had no
way of knowing that Harriet, de-
spite her thick lensed glassea, her
plain hair, and her dowdy clothes
was so thrilled every time Howard
Wescott's hand happened to touch
hers In the handing of papers.

God preserve us from our
friends. said yoltaire, that subtle
French philosopher, I'VE can
take care OF our enemies our
selves
Consider an episode in the life
OF John Henry Williams and his
wife. Daisy-nee Fentress Il
speak. OF course, of the Glouces-.
ter Fentress family. Of Virginia)
The Williams domicile consisted
OF a modest cottage on the out
skirts OF the city, just near
enough for John Henry TO allow
himself Is minutes TO drive to
work in the inexpensive coupe
his salary afforded. They pre-
ferred the country, as they called
1t, to q crowded apartment In
town, having tried the former q
year after their marriage. John
Henry's people all lived IN Bos-
ton. too far away to visit, but
the Fentresses often drove in
their shiny limousine, from their
home at the lower end of the
State. to spend the weekend
with their dear Daisy.
The family had opposed her
marriage. one felt they would
have opposed any union she con-
temriated. They put their oppo-
sition on the ground that she
had known John Henry only a
short tire, having met him in
New York where she went to
take course In dramatics. They
thought, 100, he should establish
himself firmly in a material way
before he undertook to honor
himself by an alliance with q
FentresS
But Daisy had inherited from
her fathers side of the house an
indomitable will of her own, and
from her mothers side an inpa-
tience against opposition. She
eloped with John Henry to Wash.
