you, lambie, but you must see that it will be a heroic feat. You're so absolutely his type. The last words he said were that he would keep in touch with you, let you know where he is to be found throughout the year. In case, suppose, I change my mind" Her laughter was very near tears.
 T rather hope that he win stay with Mrs Bigger" said Jenny very quietly She's definitely good for him, doesn't get on his nerves As for me, I don't fancy he wants to see me again. He only likes me because I believed I could cure him and make him the Eddie you knew and loved. If you don't need that Eddie back again, he won't hurry about getting well"
 Georgie pulled aimlessly at her eiderdoWn. There was nervous ness in the movement.
 If I'd had the nest-egg in the bank that most people think have-instead of an overdraft and "a drawerful of bills would have gone off with him this evening" i" she whispered. T wouldn't have asked where he was taking me. A room at Mrs Biggers would have been better than suite at the Ritz with him. But I'd no choice honestly. I must get my affairs in order, and I must save. If I work harder and don't play at all, I can do it in the year II will do it. Don't you believe that if I hadn't been such a fool with my money I would have thrown up the job and gone with Ed?"
 No" said Jenny gently. q think that there would still have been something in you that would have tried to get both independ- ence and marriage as we'll. You're generous, dearest, but you're gree dy, too
 "You wait" cried Georgie, clutching her as she slipped off the bed. You wait until you are in love yourself and find that your man only wants you on the terms that he"
 There was no sound from Jen- ny. she stood quite still, smiled even; but Georgie was suddenly confused.
 "Jenny?"
 "WeL?"
 Are you in love? with-with anybody"
 No"
 Jenny, still standing indifferent ly by the gleaming bed, still smil- ing, said it again.
 No"
 You're very vehement about it."
 There's no other way of con- vincting you, Georgie."
 How do you mean-oh, I see! But wasn't getting at you and Eddie" explained Georgie, with the large simplicity that is sometimes better than oceans of fact. T got the idea for the one wild moment, that you were interested in Garth Agency"
 T think we had better both turn in. You are getting imagin- atice" Jenny's smile felt nailed to her face. Oh, to be alone.
 'fYes, I must sleep. I have a heavy date tomorrow Sorry I was such a fool about Agency. "Only -" She stopped pummeling her pillows and turned in quisitive, amber eyes upon Jenny and her smile. Why did you ask me if you could give me and Eddie away to him? It was such an amazing suggestion, especially now he's the boss, that I naturally wondered"
 Jenny smiled steadily down at the tray she carried.
 q didn't realize this evening that he had been told was Mrs. Town send. And I forgot I was sup posed to be, and I had myself an- ,nounced as Miss Revell. And"
 'tOh, that's all?" Georgie slump ed, costly back and yawned. "Oh, well, there's nothing to worry about heaps of married women use their maiden names. And Agency would probably only think that you were so newly married that you were shy?"
 Also I was under the impress sion,' Jenny ploughed on that you had told him about yourself and Eddie. I thought you told him that first night when we met him, with Ryder Vale"
 My dear kid, don't confide my iloye-affairs to perfect strangers! Georgie's yawns were getting to be franker and franker. Its un- wiseLand in this case, it would have been suicidal. Imagine the
