He fingered his small reddish mustache,

their Sophisticate WEAKNESS.
''Whatre you doing this afternoon"

He said it twice before she heard him.
"Eey-hey!" he said cheerfuly.
What did you say?" gasped Malou.
Howard began to sing, softly: 1.-The sky was
blue, the moon was old Seen that show,
haven't you?"
Malou said she didn't think she had.
What night1l you go?" asked Howard
promptly
When she said he might give her a ring
later, he veered to more immediate measures:
Don't be so stingy with yourself, child. How
about a movie this afternoon"
'Now?" said Malou
''Now-as the gong strikes!" said Howard
When she said why not-and she thought
it might be done-he Redeemed with such

Howard said: you amt seen nothin yeti"
His eyes, looking into hers grew suddenly

Malou thought: "Why is it-that look can
turn your heart over, or make you cold and
sick, depending on whose eyes?'

comfortably.

Malou didn't answer him The movie gave
her that much-she didn't have to answer. She
sat and stared at the screen. She let the world
fall away from her.

Long ago. it seemed to her, something in the

with a fierce desolate hunger to recapture that

She was prettily pleasant to Howard.
"Oh-wonderful! How are you? It was

better time. Why-let me see. No

be wonderful to be an actress she said visit
fully.
"Why, Ann?" asked Malou curiously. One
never knew what went on back Of other peo-
pies eyes-any more than other people knew
ones own hidden strugglings and squirmings.
Fancy nice simple Ann yearning for glory!
WELL" said Ann, you certainly do get to
know a lot Of men-don't you, Miss Carlin?"
MALoU laughed Her laughter cracked in
the middle, and she stopped it abruptly.
Had she ever known but one man her whole
Life long? Had she ever known him? The
monotonous inner chant began again: ed

She couldn't see his face-couldn't bring it
back any more than If he had been the veriest
stranger. What had his voice been like?
She had so loved his voice-there had been
a queer resonant note in it, but what was 1t
like? How did it sound? 1t couldn't be gone,
SO soon-not absolutely gone, in just few
hours, not gone!
what time is%it, Ann?" she asked brightly.
"Tve got to sto1at drug store"
Ann said it was half-past twelve She fol-
lowed Malou to the door and stood there dust

blonde hair struggling over one cheek.
The drug store was almost empty-of peo-
pie Full of perfume and powders and can
dies and nail brushes, bath salts and swimming
caps.
Luckily the clerk behind the counter knew
her-shed been there often enough.
"A dozen tablets-please," she said. "And
I'm in a frightful hurry!" Her smile flattered
him with its suggestion of depending upon his
pleasure-in hurrying.
He resisted her-obviously embarrassed and
reluctant. II don't know if can let you have
it, Miss Carlin. Not that much-at one time"
What on earth?" inquired Malou, wide-eyed
and guilelesS. 1--WE gotten it here before

clerk pathetically: II haven't been sleeping at

THANK you so much" sighed Malou. She
had the IL tablets wrapped and in the black
suede bag under one arm before he had def
nitely decided to brave Mr.. Voladays absence.
Isn't it wonderful day!' she said to him,
comradely-departing.
Beautiful" said the young drug clerk. He
saw her, November though it was, through
mist of white blossoms dogwood and other
flora.
Charlotte Greene was waiting when Malou
got to the Carlton. They met with effusion.
