The girl flared deflantiy.
 "No strings, either. Cuckoo, that's all Why shouldn't he though? He's got so much money he don't kho" what to do with It. Endowing homes for cats and things! l guess he got few laughs out of me. And mat all a. guy like him wants. He can afford to pay for his fun.
 But $10,000, Sadie!
 Whats that to him? Just nke 10 cents to you or me-
 "rell me about it." implored Ash- toreth.
 But Sadie grew suddenly reticent.
 How do l know what you got up N,ur sleeve?" she wanted 10 know. Maybe you're after hlm yourself. And God knows l aint going to start no competition with you Ash. I'd be licked before l began. Why should I give you the 1ow-down? If Holly Harts Gods swell gift to hungry wimmin. why shouldn't hang on, while the hang Ashtoreth may Have been a snob. Most people are. She considered Sadie both cheap and common. And 50 she felt that the girl had insult ed her. resenting the assumption that there could be any rivalry be- tween them.
 Don't be vulgar, Sadie" she cau- s'tioned, and shrugged distastefully.
 And don't you high hat me!' countered Sadie. Coming out here to drink my gin and get an earful of dirt! And then putting on airs like YOU was somebody! Say. how do you get that way?
 Ashtoreth realized that she had made a mistake. Without know ing exactly what might develop. she knew that she must win Sadie's confidence in order to protect her own interests with Hart. She might even be able to act as an intermedi- ary between the two. Thereby es- tablishing a personal contact with Hart, Hart was wealthy and power full. And interesting besides Ash toreth wanted very much to know him.
 Now she tried diplomacy on Sa- die.
 You don't really care for him. do you?" she wheedled.
 Sadie removed her cigaret and blew few insolent rings. spearin'g them with her stubby little fingers. She had tossed her hat off. her hair was tous}nd. like Clara Bows. At least it was supposed to be like Clara Bows. Careless and abandon ed. She ran her fingers through it and when she had spread it like a tawny little mane. she leaned back against purple satin pillow. Then she began to hum.
 Hes my weakness now!' hunmed Sadie. and looked provo catively at Ashtoreth.
 She sang the chorus through, i'm ,,rovieire 2 hit ,s she went along

 What happened!" demanded Ashtoreth. ,-
 "Well, you see" Sadie leaned nearer. Men arc 70 damn mean, they don't want to pay for anything they don't get. Don't make any difference how much money they got. Holly must of felt he was getting cheated. And he hadn't guts enough to say SO. So he just sort of eases out of the picture" | Ashtoreth vas unconvinced. | What makes you think so?" she asked.
 They're all alike" conutered Sadie wisely. ''They got just one idea in their heads-men. See how 1 Holly walked out on me. That's what I get for being pure"
 "Oh. Sadie. you're wrong. dear. I know you are. MT. Hart isn't that kind"
 Sadie wagged her golden head.
 They're all alike. I tell you
 But I happen 10 know" insisted Ashtoreth, that Mir. Hart's interest wasn't at all-like that. Sadie" | Yeah. He'd be liable to tell you"
 Sadie scoffad and Haunted her short skirts derisively. "1 tell you. Ash-you're an awful dumb egg"
 She smoked silently for q min ute.

When she had finished she threw i her feet in the air and clicked hei merry red heels smartly. Then she laid her hand on Ash. toreth's knee.
 You're good kid,' she pro- rounced. and cooked her frowsy head. But you're awful dumb, Ash.
 "All right" agreed Ashtoreth 'E'm anything you say. But let's not quarrel any more" Sadie jumped to her feet and walked restlessly up and down the room.
 Its no good" she admitted, "hav- ing weakness, If you ai1't your weakness's weakness. if you know what I mean. And I ain't Holly Hart's weakness-not by a darn sight"
 "Tell me about it." besought Ash toreth again.

THIS HAS HAPPENED

THIS HAS HAPPENED
 Ashtoreth Ashe and Sadie Morton are exchanging condolences in Sa- dies expensive apa rtment.
 The apartment was rented and furnished through the amazing gen. erosity of Hollis Hart. multi-milliOn- aire bachelor, who felt sorry for Sa- die, whose misfortunes were really overwhelming.
 Sadie. however, proves an un- grateful little wretch, and threatens when he tires of playing with her to sue him for breach of promise. Meanwhile Hart has become inter- ested in his new stenographer. Ash toreth, beautiful and cultured girl. He is astounded when he discov- CTS that Ashtoreth and Sadie are , friends. And Ashtoreth is afraid she has forfeited his attentions.
 She goes with Sadie to her apart ment, in order to learn what details she can of the astonishing affair with Mir. Hart.
 Sadie is also curious. She asks Ashtoreth if MT. Hart has accused her of blackmailing him.
 Her frankness does not disconcert Ashtoreth.
 Well. aren't you?" she demands. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 CHAPTER VI
 Suddenly Sadie began to cry. ''Y-y-you think I'm h-h-horrid,' she sobbed.
 "Why, no, I don't" insisted Ash toreth without a great deal of con- viction. 'I've only heard one side of the story"
 "Y-you're trying to m-make h-h-hit with him yourself" accused Sadie.
 Ashtoreth had not thought Of It before. At least, not in such crude terms. Nov-to herself-she admit ted, T suppose I am."
 Aloud she said. Don't be silly. Sadie, Take another drink If IL will make you stop crying. And TOT heavens sake, be rational"
 She drained the shaker and hand ed the weeping girl goblet.
 You're not having any yourself walled Sadie "You-you just think you're too good"
 Its not that explained Ashto- reth. II hate the stuff.'
 II never had any myself till late ly." defended Sadie. Its got on awful kick-this bootleg gin. When it don't make me laugh it makes me cry.'
 I'd leave it alone then" advised Ashtore1h.
 "Yes. you would Well, maybe YOU wouldn't if you had all my trou- bles. I'm down to my last so0-thats what I am.'
 Ashtoreth laughed.
 You cant expect me to weep over that. Pm down to my last 50 cents. It's nothing unusual, either
 But what am l going to do"' moaned Sadie.
 Get yourself job,
 "How could I earn enough to keep this shack?'
 Probably you couldn't" agreed Ashtoreth. "Nhy keep it?"
 Sadie tucked a pillow behind her back.
 "yor wouldn't understand" she observed, 'because you never had a layout like this. Ash. But, now I ask you, suppose you got together a swell little cabin like this would you walk out on 1t? Heaven may protect the working girl Ike they say. But I never saw heaven pay no rent, nor buy the groceries. And. once you get used to refine ,aent. Ash, it's awful hard to give it up.' Did Mr. Hart really give you slo,0oo. sadie?'
 .Yes, he did

 Holly was always telling me l ought to put away something for . rainy day. and I took 1t liter::l. Next time I'll know better. And believe me. Ash. I'll have something to put away - something nice and compromising. Letters. Ash!"
 Sadie pounded her round. silk knee emphatically.
 "Letters!' echoed Ashtoreth.
 Sure. letters. You can raise hell with few letters." amplified Sadie. Sell 'em. Bring 'em to court. Give 'em to the papers. But I haven't 70 much as . scrap of pa- per. Oh, I've been to see a lawyer. I wrote Holly something about breach of promise. But that was only to scare him.
 T got a new boy now-the law yer l went to see. He says maybe we can frighten Holly - but prob ably he's too caKey. I don't know
 Probably" Ashtoreth assented uncomfortably.
 But Mir. Hart's been SO wonder full to you!" she exclaimed. Why do you want to make trouble? l should think you'd be glad to keep what you have. and thank your lucky stars"
 And me without job ?" moaned Sadie.
 Good Lord, you're not crippled. or blind. or anything. Go get one" suggested Ashtoreth curtly.
