Lovejoy made . sound that
was half q laugh and half a
sob Of relief as she saw her
standing there. Then she went
hurrying across the deep, soft
carpet and laid q welcoming
hand on her shoulder.
'Norrie," she said to her half
Historically, you've saved my
life. Please let Tom think I
knew you were coming here"
There was no time to explain.
No time to even say another
word.
For Tom had reached the
doorway almost as soon as she
had. He was standing close to
her. looking from her face to
Norrie's and grinning in his
boyiSh, friendly way as he began
to take Norrie's bundles from
her.
I'm give these to the check
girl" he was saying. She'll
look after them. " How did
you girls happen to come in
here for lunch? Why didn't
you ten me you were coming
down town this morning? I
would have been glad to stand
you both TO q square meal"
It was Norrie who answered
him. I'VE just happened to run
into Mr.. Oglebay," she said

that came here alone with
Steve Oglebay don't know
what he'd have done. 7 wish
you'd seen him when he caught

He looked as II he were going
to kill us =" -" She caught
her breath, remembering how
angry he had been.
"Well. now that you know
how jealous he can be, don't
make him jealous" Norrie ad-
viSed her in her quiet sensible
way. "f I were lucky enough
to be married to q man like
Tom Nicholson I'd never know
there was another man In the
world " and please believe
me-"
There was q wiStful note In
her voice that made Lovejoy
study her with wondering curl
Gus eyes as she followed her
to Steve Oglebay's table a mo
ment later.
How dreadful it must be to

stiffly. I'VE were going to have
lunch at Tingley's " but we
happened to meet him."
And 80 she lied like a lady for
the second time that day, to
make things easy for Lovejoy.
"Norrie, you're an old peach," =,
the girl said to her when Tom
had gone out into the lobby with
her packages. What ever made
you decide to join US here?"
Norrie's prim sweet mouth
tightened at the corners.
'fWell, / thought things over"
she explained, land I thought it
would look disgraceful for you
to be seen here lunching. alone
with this Oglebay, so I came
in. =" I didn't want to, I can
tell you"
She looked out into the lobby
where Tom had disappeared.
But I'm glad / did now"
she added quietly. 'Lovejoy,
when a man cares for a girl
the way your husband cares
about you-well, that girl is
just insane If she takes chances
with her happiness"
Lovejoy nodded.
"You certainly saved the day

she said. ''n Tom had known

tie smile.
The summer rolled along
very hot and uncomfortable
and many an evening when
Mabel sat in slippered feet in
her Stuffy room she thought Of
the daily round Of work, and
then she thought Of Sally. She
hadn't heard Of her: she wond-
cred where she was living and
what she was doing.
Then came q Sunday when
Mark appeared not his usual
cheerful self. He explained
why when they were on the
highway. I'm afraid this is

come q cropper, my dear, and
the cars going to- q second

Mabel. "And we can get on to-

When the season came to an

hundred dollars. ."What'n do

It wass mere accident that
Mabel, riding in her new car,
met her old chum, Sally. She
was sitting on a bench in the

He was talking earnestly to
the middle-aged man who was
with him.
And even through her terror
and her embarrassment, Love
Joy noticed how good-looking
he was with his straight back,
his broad square shoulders and
the fine, head that was set upon
them.
Suppose he suddenly turned
that handsome head of his and
saw her sitting there with
Stephen Oglehay.
What would he think?
What would he do?
How could she explain things
to him? Her being there with
q man who had been in love
with her for years.

the corner. I'm afraid I

She broke off talking as the
waiter came I'D to the table
and set q cup of iced tomato
bouillon before her.
But you told Miss Shane
that you'd tell your husband
about having lunch with me-"
Steve reminded her, and pick
ing up his spoon he began his
soup. "You said he wouldn't
care"
Lovejoy nodded her head, her
face fun Of misery.
I know" she answered
vaguely.
But it was one thing to tell
The Washington times., 1930-01-11

your husband about lunching
with another man, after it was
all over. And it was quite an
other to have him catch you
in the very act Of eating that
cozy little meal for two.
I'm going before Tom sees
me-"
She gathered UP her gloves
and handbag and packages
from the chair beside her.
AS she swayed slowly to her
feet, Tom turned his head and
saw her.
Fascinated and unable to
move, she watched his eyes
narrow as they took her and
Steve Oglebay in =. She
found herself stupidity wonder
ing what he was thinking
about finding the pair Of them
their.
Frowning, he crumpled up
his napkin in his hands and
laid it down on the cloth be-
fore him. He said something
to the man who sat across the
table from him, and then stood
up. ALI this he did without
once taking his eyes from Love
joys face.
He started across the room.
And then
And then in the wide arch
of the doorway that opened
from the lobby, q tall, slender
figure suddenly appeared as If

too far back from her fore
head, her eyes searching the

TOday's True
Story

TUE two girls had struck up
4 IN acquaintance when they
where both in the chorus Of a
Broadway revue. Mabel was
dark and Sally was light. To
gether they formed a pleasing
contrast. B and B they called
them Nbsckstage which was Of
course short for blonde and
brunette.
They lived In a small room
not too far from the Great
White Way in order to tighten
the daily journeys to rehearsals.
and performances. And in the
course Of the season they met
with various admirers among
whom two were more persist
ent than the rest.
These two were as different
as the girls they took to dinner
after the show but their atten-
tions so far had never resolved
into . concrete proposal Of mar
riage.
sally summed them up as
sugar daddieS who had more
time and money than they could
conveniently use, but Mabel
wasn't so sure.
