fire. The Swedish people win be
at me like blazes. Ye can't do It,
Miss Grant,"
I'm going TO-"
He regarded her with a grim
little smile.
why wouldn't We be keeping to
your contract and going on dane
ing and making more money, and
then paying Mr.. Gideon back all
he spent on We, Miss Grant?"
Judy started at him. The idea
had not occurred to her. There was
something in it, too.
How soon could I do it?" she
asked.
Il couldn't quite say. but I can
easily find out. / should think It
might take We about six months
living very carefully yourself in the
meanwhile. He spent a ton Of
money, there's no doubling that
Judy sprang TO her feet.
"ITl do IT," she said. Thanks,
Mr.. Tannary. for the idea. I hadn't
thought Of It. I'll do III I'll make
all the money I can. and when I
pay Mr.. Gideon back Ill advertise
in all the papers that I've done 1t
that the girl he cheated and lied
to doesn't owe him a cent. and that
she paid IL back all on her own. by
her own work. Nobody can think
any the less Of me for that. All the
wrold shall know how he cheated
mel"
Tannary gave her another grim
little smile.
Miss Grant. ye'd be making a
bad enemy"
II dare say, she answered: but
I've never cheated anybody in my
life. He deserves IL. I said nobody
could think the less Of me: but. you
see. ! shall always think less OF
myself. I've been deceived-very
badly deceived. Mr.. Tannary; and
Mr.. Gideon is going to pay for
thatl"
In her face was the violent purity
which. with her loyalty, was the
very basis Of her nature. The hard
headed little Scotsman apprehended
It with his Celtic genius, and paid
homage TO IL.
I'm thinking Miss Grant" he
said. Tat yen 60 very far in this
world. but that yen be deserving
every bit Of your SUGGEST"
About a week later Judy heard
Alan Steyne had gone to Persia
with his friend Hylton. who had
managed his departure sooner than
he had thought possible.
She herself was leaving for Paris
in the following week. She was
booked for a three-week engage
ment there. and was then going to
Nice and Monte Carlo. and from
there to Milan, Rome. and Naples.
She felt dizzy when she thought Of
IL. but she know that II was her
life. and that she could never have
given 10 up.
Three days before her departure
she met Bruce Gideon. She was
walking toward her lodgings, and
her arms were full Of parcels.
He stood still. hat in hand, bow
ing with formal difference.
Through Judy's mind there flash
ed the idea that 1t would be a great
satisfaction to cut him dead: but
almost instantly another thought
came to her, Just as definite. In
some way she had SO to order her
life that Alan S-eyne must know
that she could never have any part
In his. How to do this better than
by resuming her friendship with Mr..
Punch? 1t would get to Alan's ears.
however far off he was-she was
sure of that. He would despise her.
He would think that what had been
said about her was true. Well. all
the betterl That was what she
wanted.
Then. on the top Of this thought.
came still another. The purpose that
had been lying dormant stirred
again-that curious plan born out
Of the vision Of a beautiful girl
and a dissipated-looking man in a
big car: or born, more strictly
sps.lng. in Vincent Stornaway's
studio. as she sat on the bearskin
behind a screen. Those hateful
words sounded again in her ears:
Not the sort Of girl one could
