Steyne returns, Chummy fails to recognize him. and he and Judith fall in love. He tells Judith that he never loved Chummy and never knew Chummy loved him; but when Chummys memory suddenly returns and she recognizes him, he feels bound by a tie of honor to ask her 70 marry him. Judith accepts the offer Of Bruce Gideon, wealthy fInancier, to star her in a musical show, and begins studying dancing. Steyne objects, doubting Gideon's nten- tons. but Judith refuses 10 listen to him. Tie four meet one an other at q tkeater party and steyne insists that Judith leave Gideon and go home with Chummy and himself.
 NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 CHAPTER XIX ;.
 Judy turned her head slightly and smiled at Gideon, who reached her side. his smile turning to a frown as he saw her companion.
 Miss Grant js coming with us said steyne, quietly belligerent We have arranged a little gather ing for her"
 Judy laughed nervously. and, al- most against her will, walked be- side the young man toward the door. Gideon followed his bull neck and large ears vers red, his face ljvid with rage.
 T am under the impression that Miss Grant is coming to have little supper with me" he said.
 I think not" Alan replied.
 They had reached Chummy and Clara Jenks. who looked at them ln surprise. Chummy, a moment later, shrank back as she became aware O. the passions let loose. That first, original quarrel Of manhood hurt her-the quarrel Of two men about a woman. Of course, she did not understand Y. She simply saw that Alan was put out, and that Gideon had an ugly look on his face.
 Judy, always apt 10 lose her head under excitement, was laughing un- cCntrollably.
 "Oh, what a fuss" she managed 70 say between two almost hysteri- cal attacks.
 Come, Clarissa" said Alan sternly.
 His face indicated what he ex- pected her to do. Still at sea, she linked her arm in her friends.
 Come along. Judy dear, We're going to the cafe"
 No. really" laughed Judy. "Oh. you do make such q fuss about things. I'm going out to supper with Mir. Gideon. He asked me long ago"
 Perhaps Miss Grant might be al- lowed 10 decide for herself" sug- gested Gideon with elephantine sar- casna.
 I'm going with MT Gideon" Judy said.
 -- She was near to tears now - tears Of furious indignation al be- ing treated like a kid as she would have said.
 You are coming with us" steyne said.
 He also was beside himself, but white as q ghost and quiet as deep stream. Judy stamped her foot.
 I'm not. then! I'm not"
 That finished it, The two men measured glances, and the younger knew himself beaten,
 Judy and Gideon went out to his waiting car. CIarissa. crimson with shame, hurried out into the lobby. Clara Jenks, secretly highly amused, vaddled after her.
 Clara was in wonderful spirits that night. She had just secured her first really promising engagement on the stage, 10 play in a duologue with a famous comedian al an uptown theater. Her part was that of a drunken but good-hearted landlady, and she was going to reveI in it.
 Personally quick as lightning in her powers Of observation. Clara had taken in a good deal more of the meaning of the little scene than had Chummy. She sided with Judy, and thought Mr. Stcyne had been quite ridiculously overbearing. AS f Judy didn't know her way about. If she wanted q good supper and q ride in a comfortable motor car, who was to blame her?
 Chummy and Alan were just little way ahead.
 "Oh, Alan, vas it necessary to be quite so cross with poor Judy?' the girl asked.
 You though I was wrong, CIa- rissa?
 Tt made me feel uncomfortable. After all, Judy can take care of herself. and MT. Gideon had asked her first"
 Hes not a fit man for her to be with" said Alan curtIy. T don't want to talk to you about it. but it is fact. l wish you would do everything you can to prevent her
