demanded, that anybody shouldn't

now. For the last week there's been
an advertisement in the personal COL
umn of the News for the address OF
Rhoda Mcfarland. The reason I'd
noticed 1t was that it was always q
blind ad; the advertiser, I mean, never
giving his own name"

tered his gaze, sharpness that sounded
like panic audible in her voice, what
has that got to do with me?"
He wanted to say, "You are Rhoda
Mcfarland, aren't you?" but his nerve
failed him. He didn't try to answer her
question.
was it Rhoda Mcfarland you heard
them talking about?" she asked, her
voice now in better control, "and did
you think there couldn't be more than
one person named Rhoda?"

FIRST INSTALLMENT.

"HE first moment was complicat-

4 erward, when there was time to
think, Martin Forbes went back
to 1t himself.
II had been perfectly involuntary, his
smiling at the girl like that. 1t wasn't
.Ac sort OF thing he did. to hang around
on the ,G.g~ # the floor of public
dance hall and smile into the eyes of
strange girls, no matter how pretty
they were.
He had come to the Alhambra at the
suggestion of Babe Jennings. She was
going to be there, she said, and if she
gave him the high sign he was take it
as permission to cut in and dance with
her. Martin took q partly professional
interest in Babe. She had very good
Job on his paper as an ad-taker, but
she had an avocation which he was CIV
en- to understand was even more lucra-
tive. She was more or less, on the staH.
of the Alhambra.
There was nothing improper about
the Albanbra. It wasn't that sort of
place, Men merely came there who
Babe was one of the girls who supplied
this demand. There was, of course, no
published tariff of fees, but one accept
ed tips. Sometimes these were small
Martin was invited to marvel at what
pikers some people were. Yet, on the
other hand Well, after making
the customary discount from all Babes
statements of this sort, one arrived at
something rather better than $25 q
week as her average figure.
To the fiction writer, which Martin
meant to be, she ought to prove mine
of vaTiegated raw material. Even for
his present job she was worth cultivat-

She came around Martins side of the
sofa, and he watched her all the way
to the stairs. His mind was blank
however, as far as she was concerned.
He had something else to think about
He had spotted his association with
the name Rhoda. For the past week
some one had been advertising every
day in the personal column of The
News for the address of Rhoda McFar-
land. Martin read the personal column
pretty carefully. Every now and then
he found the beginning of q story in II.
He had especially noted these advertise
mentS for Rhoda Mcfarland because of
a minor oddity about them. Usually the

Shed leaned forward little to watch
the crowd on the floor, and she sudden
sly drew back. The man he'd rescued
her from-LewiS, If that was his name
was coming across the floor. Martin
drew back, too.
"Do peoples names ever strike you
as misflts?" he asked. His does. MY
idea of man named Lewis doesn't look
like that"
1T may not be his real name" she
remarked. "Or he may have changed
it from something else. People do some
times. All know is that that's the
way he was introduced to me by ore of
the managers. He asked me to call him
Max, but 1 didn't know whether that's
short for Maxwell or Maxfield or wheth-
er it's his whole name"
He thought she'd colored over this
admission that she was indebted to one
of the floor managers for a dancing
partner. He'd resolved not to try to
think her out until afterward, but 1t
was resolution he couldn't keep. Who
was she? What was she?
There comes the orchestra" he said
Lets go down and dance again."
Just then he saw Babe Jennings COM
ing along with client in tow.
Babe saw his companion and said,
with sisterly familiarity, Hello, Red!

His girl-"Red," indeedl-answered
in perfectly matter-of-fact way, Yes,

little and she smiled. "And I" she went
on, Thought that you'd be nicer to
dance with. And you were. Come, on ]!
Let's dance some more"
"They were trying to find you" he
stubbornly persisted, before somebody
else did; somebody they are afraid of, or
are trying to take advantage of; an old
man they spoke of as C. j. Do you
know who he is?"
"I haven't the remotest idea in the
world" she said. Cant you see now
it's all nonsenSe?"
"Sit still another minute. anyhow,
and listen to the rest of it. Then per-
haps you won't think it's nonsense.
1T was the woman who seemed most
excited about YOU. She told Max 1t

knew that they'd have G. J.-whoever
he is--where they wanted him. She
said there wasn't any time to waste,

cried: I'll! Why do you keep

much, anyway. And I won't let Max

He saw she flinehed at that and add
ed: Let me go with you now. We can

men were looking at each other rather
%oh. helloI" Max Lewis said. 'T
didn't know you were here. Did hear
you say you were going to dance with
Miss White?"
Martin replied. II said It," Then he
had what he welcomed as an inspira-
ton. "Oh, beg your pardon" he
went on. Miss Jennings, viii you let
me introduce Mr.: Max Lewis?"
Babe said she was delighted, and It
seemed to Martin that her enthusiasm
was unfeigned. Apparently Lewis
thought so, too. Anyhow, neither of
them objected when Martin slipped
away into the crowd.
Later--but not until an hour or two
later, going over the evening on foot,
as it were-he was able to surmise that
cess of this maneuver, getting rid OF
both Lewis and Babe with q single well
placed introduction, might have had
something to do with his discontinue
in the scene which followed with Rhoda.
She, of course, couldn't have known
how much deeper he'd plunged into her
affairs while she'd been finishing out
the dance with Higgins. But 1t wasn't
surprising IL she'd felt, when he came
up and took her arm, detaching her
from her most recent partner with
barely a word, that his manner was
assuming a good deal too much, as If
their friendship had been a matter Of
months rather than of minutes.
He was aware that she looked at him
q little oddly as he started to lead her
away, and he explained his action, ade-
quately, he felt, by saying, We've got
to find some place where we can talk.

SUMMARY

The disturbance over the Plains
states yesterday morning was cen
trail over Illinois this morning with
increased intensity, and attended
by heavy cloudiness and light to
heavy precipitation practically
throughout the great central val
leys and the southeastern and
eastern states. Baronetric pres
sure was also moderately low over
the Lower Rio Grande Valley and
the far Southwest, attended by
cloudy and unsettled weather like
wise. Rising barometer over the
immediate Northwest is attended by
clearing and rather cool weather
practically throughout the great
Northwest.
