Boo asked, her heart beating
furiously. "Would you do that
for me?"
I'D do anything in the world
short Of murder that would make
you happy, little one" he said
huskily. whats the number?"
Boo-Boo gave it to him, fear
in her heart lest Dick might mis-
understand. And, in order to
give Peter a chance to speak
more freely, she went into the
next room and closed the door
behind her. She sat there for
fifteen minutes, waiting for him
to come and tell her what Dicks
reaction had been. Finally he
called to her.
"What-what did he say?" she
asked feverishly.
Peter was hesitant. "Well,
he-he didn't seem to believe it.

and said he could check up any
time he wanted to. He didn't

she brushed them aside she
walked faster, faster.
She had walked about a mile
uptown when suddenly she heard
her name called. Turning around
she saw Peter lurrying toward
her.
"Boo-Boo, DEAR" he said, as
he noticed her tear-strained face.
"Where are you going? What's
the trouble?" And almost before
she could answer he had hailed a
taxi and guided her into it. "Put
your head on my shoulder,
Baby" he crooned, soothingly,
land tell me all about it."
Later that evening, when they
were sitting in Peters apartment
and Boo-Boo had had time to
think, she pleaded with him:
''Tell me what to do. Peter.
You're older and wiser than I
am. I'm all in a muddle and I
need you SO badly. Help me,
please"
And Peter, his love for the
girl uppermost in his mind, tried
to be im~personal. "You know
how much / love you, Boo-Boo,".
he told her. "Yet l realize now
that it is a futile love. All I can
suggest is that you get in touch
with Dick. There may be a
chance for you when he realizes
that this little dame he's been so
crazy about is nothing but a two
timer. 1t can't hurt to try"

THE realization that Peter
ROLAND loved her and
wanted her for his wife
gave Boo-Boo food for thought.
1t was obvious to her that she
could not marry Peter under any
circumstances. He was not the
man she loved. and for all his
kindness and unselfishness she
recognized she could not be
happy with him. Happiness, she
was wise enough to know, came
only through mutual love-all
other routes were artificial.
Musing thus, she picked up the
telephone on the table beside her
bed and called a number. Peters
love for her, his assurance Of
friendship, had given her the
courage of her convictions. She
would tell Dick Of Hester's de-
ception, tear the veil from his
eyes and in this way give herself
the only available chance for
peace.
GIVE me Cortland" A key
turned in the door and Hester
came in. Quickly Boo Boo
dropped the receiver, pretending
that her telephone conversation
was at an end.
"Hello," she said to Hester, her
tone conveying the genuine antip-
athy with which she now regarded
her friend.
Hester, who disliked Boo-Boo
because she realized that the girl
mistrusted her, barely responded.
"Who was that on the phone?"
she asked.
Boo-Boo hesitated a second.
Then she lied glibly. at was

to the little public stenographer's
office they shared.

to me, Boo-Boo, that you r

"It's not a new crush" Boo

"Well, if that's the case, why

Boo-Boo turned a scornful

"You know, you haven't been
exactly honest with me, your

Hester colored. Any reference
to her friendship with Parmly

able. She hated Boo-Boo every
time the girl brought up the sub

"You cali me the black sheep,
but it's you who are"
"That's enough from you,"
shrieked Hester. From now on
we will be merely business part
ners. Our friendship is at an
end"
Boo-Boo turned away SO that
Hester could not see her tears.
