SYNOPSIS: Suspicion is plac- ed upon the fin ncing of Fourth Aldersea's invention by Eugenie Frye, who tells Fourth's stcpdaughter, Sam Sherrill, that the inve n ii O n is worthlesss. Fourth's supposed success has brought wealth to the family, after years of poverty. During the mcneyless period Sam has carried the household responsi- bilities. She has become engaged to Peak Abbott, young news paper owner, to relieve the fi- nancial strain and to lessen the unfortunate social effects of her stcpbrcther, Nclson's marriage to their maid. Now that Fourth is rich, she realizes that she could have avoided this step and married Freddy Munson, with whom she is in love, but who has no money. She is wor- ried by the statement of Mrs. Frye, who is interested in her stepfather and would have backed the invention if it had been commercially pr c t cal. Mrs. Frye finds it peculiar that business men approve the in vcntion. Its worse than pecul- iar," she says. "It's terrible"

Sam smiled in spite of herself. T can't believe that it's quite as bad as that. You can undoubtedly find something just as good as Fourths invention to put your money in"
 "You don't understand" Eugenie shook her head vehemently. "Id rather have lost every cent than have let this happen"
 What do you mean?"
 "What I mean is simple enough. MT. Aldersea isn't in the book business any more. Not only that, but he has plenty of money Eu- genie looked up and Sam was hor- rified to see that her eyes were filled with tears. Its the end. I won't be seeing MT Aldersea any more
 "Nonsense!" Sam spoke sharply in an attempt to stifle an unrea- sonaole and unwelcome surge of pity.
 The widow leaned forward with sudden earnestness. Miss Sherill, you and I are both sensible people, aren't we?"
 Why, yes, suppose we are"
 'Very well. Being sensible peo- pie, we both know what We know. We know, for instance, that I am terribly in love wiht MT. Aldersea."
 Sam gasped. We do?" she in- quired
 "Yes." Eugenie nodded. We not only know that, but we also know that MT. Aldersea isn't even slight ly interested in me"
 Mrs Frye!"
 T have no wild ideas about my self" the widow continued calmly. T know exactly what I am. I'm cheap, and don't wear good clothes, and my voice is bad. I can't even talk the same kind of English he talks"
 Please don't talk like that"
 Why not? It's the truth. Do you mind if I put the cards on the table? I'd like to tell you all about myself-if you can stand it."
 Sam murmured: "I'd be glad to hear The widow had suddenly be- come an intensely interesting fig. ure.

 I'm afraid I don't"
 "Of course you don't" The widow smiled. You'll see soon enough when I tell you a little bit about my life.

 That's understandable enough" |" Sam nodded gravely.
 "Is it?" The widow inquired. T am not so sure. The rest of them were satisfied enough. I wanted something better. I was different"
 The widow had forgotten Sam altogether. She was staring back through the years at three crowd ed rooms in some dingy tenement.
 "Yes.' Eugenie went on, T was different, but didn't know it. All knew was that loved to stand outside theatres watching the nice people going in. I'd look at the women and tell myself that some day I'd have clothes like theirs" She smiled at Sam.

servant whose father was reputed to be an unenterprising retailer of fresh fish.
 No one had the slightest doubt that Sam was genuinely happy. It stood out all over her. She no longer gave the impression of be- ing person apart, self sufficient, faintly on the defensive. She went everywhere, and she obviously en- joyed herself.
 The night at the Ritz proved to be, as the weeks went on, no more than a beginning. Sam's mood did not wane. Instead, it re- rnained, flourished and grew.
 Peak, although delighted, was definitely wary at first He watch ed Sam closely. Sam's air of grave formality and her long silences in his presence had disappeared. She talked with him constantly now; talked with him intimately and without reservation. She gave no verbal assurance of love, to be sure, but otherwise, Peak told him. self savagely, she talked exactly as a woman might talk with her husband.
 It was all very difficult. At times when she looked up at him sud- denly with that deep, almost pur- pie light in her blue eyes, it took all his strength to keep from seiz- ing her in his arms. Only will that had become strong through constant exercise prevented him from giving way to these tempta- tions. He was grimly determined that he should never give way never, at least, until he was abso- lutely sure that the ghost of Fred dy Mason had been finally and definitely laid to rest.

 "Badly?" Sam was genuinely moved. You've done wonders!' Sam said
 Have I?" Eugenie shrugged. T will admit that I'd just about de- eide my fighting days were over. Then, one day, MT. Aldersea came to my house to sell me a set of books and I knew in five minutes that hadn't even begun. l knew right then and there that want ed him."
 "Really?" Sam almost smiled. T didn't know that Fourth was so-"
 T know. It sounds foolish some how, and it's hard to explain. Maybe it was his voice or the things he talked about. Maybe it was just him. Anyway, there it was. I had to think, so l stalled him off about the books and told him to come back a day later. He went away, and I told myself that I was in for another fight"
 "Really?" Sam repeated weakly.
 "Yes, I said to myself, 'Eugenie Frye, there's no use for thinking romantic nonsense about this busi- ness because man like him won't fall in love with you. What have you got that you can fight with?' Money was the answer. had lot of money and MT. Aldersea didn't have much or he wouldn't be selling books. Maybe I could persuade him to put up with me for the sake of my money. Then could begin to try to make him like me a little bit"
 Sam was so dazed by this amaz- ingly frank recital that she was able only to murmur feeble: "I see"
 Eugenie nodded. Well, I bought books from him and I lent him money. I tried to put in his head what was in my head" She sigh ed. T think was succeeding-and then, all of a sudden he stopped coming to see me. You tell me that he has made money. That is a blow, because if he's made money he'll never give me another thought. He's taken away the only thing I had to fight with" She turned suddenly and started in- tently at Sam. Do you see why I've been acting like such an idiot since you told me about that in- vention thing?'
 T think so." Sam nodded slow ly I'm terribly sorry"
 Don't be sorry for me" The widow sat up very straight, a grim, determined figure. I'm not sorry for myself, and I'm not through. I'm not beaten yet!'
 T said it was all over when you first gave me the news. I'm ready to start again now. don't know how I'm going to fight, or what I'm going to fight without I warn you I'll find something. I've got to! There's a reason" "A reason?"
 Yes" said Eugenie with cer- tain simple dignity. "The reason is I'm in love with your stepfath- CT" She laughed grimly. I'm in love and I can't get out. It's some thing that's got hold of me and won't let go." She made an express sive, twisting gesture with her clenched hand. Tt sort of grabs and hurts inside-like that. Know what I mean?"
 Sam nodded. ''Yes," she said gravely. "I think 1 know" People said, that Spring, that Sam was forgetting. They meant, of course, that she was forgetting about Nelson and his marriage to a fifteen -dollar-a- week dom S t
