Life, Love and Adventures
!. Of a Modern Cinderella
Chapter 43


S Delight lay quite still against
the pillows. Her face was quite
impassive, save for a very slight
dilation of the pupils Of her
tired, blue eyes. There was a
short pause in which she fan
cied she could hear her heart
beating. Safety, comfort, free
dom from anxiety-all within
the reach of a hand which for
some years had not scrupled to
take what was offered. She said,
finally:
"Sit down, Lorry; want to
talk to you"
Lorrimer obeyed, taking a low
chintz-covered chair beside the
bed. Delight looked about the
room, a very pleasant room, in
which everything spoke to her,
niutely, of shelter. Two courses
lay open and apparent before
her. She could speak one short
word and life would be made
quite simple for her; whatever
complications might arise she
could handle deftly, she could
insist upon a fairly long en-
gagement, and during that time
the obstacles, known only to her
and one other, could be disposed
Of; or she could make to Lorri-
nner the withheld explanation
which she had been on the point
Of making to Mary Lou.
Which?
She turned her eyes to the
mans grave face. A very at
tractive man, Lorrimer. Much
more attractive than the boy
he had been. Mature, worth
while. Yes, very much more
attractive than that forgotten
boy, thought the woman who
had had plenty Of unsought
opportunity to readjust her
sense of values in the past
few years. A man whom it
would be quite easy to care
for, to whom it would not be
hard to remain faithful. Poor
Delight! She had always
wished to count fidelity among
her natural virtues. but when
emotion wore to a thin, cutting
edge, and difficult times had
furnished glamour, fidelity be-
came lost in the frantic further
search for happiness. for a lit
tie ease of soul and body, and
In the driving quest for some
one, something, Of such para
mount Importance that fidelity
as a matter of course, would
follow.
II Not a Gesture
She said lightly:
i."Such a chivalrous gesture
isn't really necessary, Lorry."
"Tt's not a gesture, Delight"
he told her.
Eyes, it is, I think. You don't
know me. Nor I you. We are

the eyes.
The first impulsive urge to
IKE her in his arms passed ana
there was q sullen, beaten look,
a look that took IL years to
implant filmed the eyes that
once we're clear, and blue, and
full Of life, and laughter.
Wanted by the Police
"Just be fair" he growled at
her, and fairly tossed himself
into the other corner Of the car.
"How can I talk of love" he
asked. cops in five cities want
to ask lne about jobs here and
there. My scar marks me from
Portland to Portland and from
Key West to San Diego. Wher-
ever I go it's just question Of

to the driver, and then turned
again to the man in the car.
Listen" she began. IT loved
you 13 years ago, enough to
follow you to France, just to
have the chance to tell you It
was so after you'd marched
away. You told me when the
war was all out of the way
that loud come back to me
again. Instead, you left me
hanging on a limb. Twelve
years. I turned down every
man I knew who ever asked me.
"JuSt waiting for you. And
now you tell me a scar can
stand between us-a scar and
what that scar has come to
mean. Listen, big boy, the war
taught women something, too.
Come here"
Whispered NOthings
She pulled his head closer to
her, and for five minutes or
more she whispered in his ear.
Inspector Callaghan leaned
over his desk. He pointed q
finger at the man Kensington
knew as Chick Mallory.
"Fingerprints Of twins some
times are alike" he admitted.
"You say the man we knew as
Scarface Parker was your twin
brother. You point out that
you have no scar such as he
had. You tell me you've been
working steadily for a year.
I'll tell you frankly I'm going to
keep on watching you. But
I'll tell you just as frankly that
as things stand now I've got
nothing on you"
A Girls Plea
The girl beside Mallory
looked the inspector straight in
the eye.
Then, Inspector, if my hus-
band and I don't get into
trouble, we can just go ahead
living out our lives together?
If we're good, you'll give us
both a break"
He held out a hand. She
shook it. So did Chick Mallory.
AS she turned to go, she took a
card from case and turned to
the official.
I'm sort of in business for
myself, you know" she said.
"Since we were married. Chick
and I, I've been keeping right
on with my work. It's awfully
interesting"
She handed him the card.
It read:

She smiled. So, after a brief
moment, did the Inspector.

MITCHELL RAPS
SCHALL JUDGE
CANDIDATE
{. A. Nickel Will Not Receive
Attorney Generals Approval
for U. S. Bench in Mimi.

A sensational statement explain
ing official opposition to the ap
pointment of a candidate for the
vacant Federal judgeship in Min
nesota, proposed by Senator
Schall (R0 of that State, and out
lining the qualifications for the
Federal bench, was issued today
by Attorney General Mitchell.
Mitchell DisapprOves
At Senator Schall's office it was
learned his candidate for the
JudgeShip is E. A. Nickel, we'll
known Minnesota lawyer. The At.
torney General said:
Senator SchaIl has submitted
the name of only one man for
this place. It may as well be
understood once and for all, /
cannot give him a favorable rec
Ommendation to the President"
Mitchell, who also is from Min
neSota, declared Schall's candidate
satisfies some but not all of the
requirements"
He asserted that from lawyers
and judges all over the State
have come numerous and vigor-
Gus protests against the appoint
ment and remarked it requires
courage and strong conviction
for a lawyer to protest such an
appointment where there is any
chance of its being made.
Tells Of the Protests
"NO man has a right to as
pire to appointment to the Fed
eral bench whose professional
activities have been conducted
in disregard of those standards
of professional conduct which
right.thinking lawyers have ira
ditiOnally tried to maintain, or
who has followed methods
which have been condemned by
the courts as contrary to the
public interest and against pub
lie pc,icy."
