Would Provide Saving
The uniform scale of low prices
would provide saving for medical

said.
In connection with the plan, COM

Janet mastered an impulse to flee
from the room. 1t was obvious that
Mrs Curtis wanted to talk about
her daughter and she must listen.
"How old is she?" she asked politely,

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX (Con-

CHE was COnSlQeraJe IN many
- WAYS. There always were fresh
flowers in Janets room, just as
there were in Mrs. Curtis. When
the car wasn't needed for any
other purpose and Janet had an en-
gaeement. Mrs. Curtis urged her to
call Frederick and have him drive
her where she wished to go.
She took Janet with her 10 a
luncheon at the Three Arts Club,
at which a Well-known novelist
spoke.
At FIRST Janet tried to make her
DAYS systematic. She found it was
impossible. If nothing else upset
her plans, Mrs. Curtis herself was
sure to do it. She would decide at
the last minute that she wouldn't go
to have the fitting at the dress
makers. Or. instead Of having six
guests at dinner, she would decide
to invite ten.
Mrs. Curtis gratefully shifted re-
sponsibilty for such changes TO her
secretary's shoulders.
And yet Janet liked her work. 1t
was so entirely different from any
thing she ever had done. 1t LOOK
her to new places and among people
of a different world.
1t was interesting to know how
they lived. When Janet shopped
for Mrs. Curtis, she visited stores
she never had entered before. 1t
was pleasant to sit back in the
velour limousine and
give Frederick instructions through
the speaking tube. 1t was pleas
ant to meet Mrs Curtis at the fash
ionable Three Arts Club.
During that first week Janet
worked longer hours than she ever
had worked before. 1t had been
agreed that she was to have one
afternoon TO herself each week and
those evenings when Mrs. Curtis
had engagements.
Somehow the time slipped by and
Janet was busy every afternoon.
She was sitting at her desk in the
little room off the library Friday
morning when a messenger delivered
a package. It was a box from Bal
lards,' the jewelers., and the boy was
quite certain that Mrs. Curtis had
ordered it,
Janet united the wrappings and
drew out a handsome silver picture
frame. Inside was a carbon slip in
eating that the frame mad been
left for repair.
IT'S all right" she told the boy,
who muttered something and de-
parted.
Half an hour later Mrs. Curtis
entered the room and Janet showed
her the frame. oh, yes!! she said.
Its for my daughters picture.
The glass broke and left it to have
them put in a new one. Ill just
get the photograph"
Her voice trailed off as she hur-
ried from the room. A moment
later she was back. Here it is" she
said. Don't you think she's at
tractive?"
Janet took the photograph. 1t was
Betty Kendall!

When the conference was over Eve departed. hoping she had missed no details of Barnes plan. He sounded the buzzer for Arlene who passed Eve as she was leaving the office. The two girls exchanged stricken glances and Arlene raised her eyes upward.
 Eve hurried to her. desk tele- phone and called Dicks number. She had no reserve fund; her mon ey was all invested in Atlas Coup Ter. She had even borrowed from her mother. There was no time to wire to Kate Bayless for more and besides, telegrams frightened the family and were always followed by solictious inquiries from kind ly but curious neighbors.
 Dick" Eve begged, "can you come down town and meet me at the City Bank at noon? It's very important"
 "I'll be waiting for you in the lobby" he answered briefly. Dick must be busy, Eve thought. Perhaps there was some one with him or he would have said more. But she knew he would not fail her. Dear Dick! How had she man. aged to get along without him? Arlene finally reappeared with her notebook and pencil. "I'll never be able to read these hierogly- phics," she said as she sat down at her typewriter to transcribe the notes. Barnes is in Q hurry for these letters and I'm so nervous as Q cat! I'll see you later" Eve gathered up several sheets of copy paper and q pencil and then went to the sports goods de. partment to lay plans for tho June campaign. When she returned Barnes was standing at Ariene's desk, taking up the letters as rap- idly as she transcribed them. Poor Arlene! That act in itself was enough to make Q stenographer nervous. It was just ,12 o'clock, Eve hurried out of the building to keep her appointment with Dick, She would have to wait until later to talk to Arlene.
 The front windows of Bixby's store were decorated with apple blossoms and there was a display of house and garden frocks, porch furniture and picnic equipment, But Eve felt none of the urge of the spring time. She hurried across tho square, oblivious of all passers-by. In another minute she must face Dick and ask him to give her $200. Yet her plans were not formulated and she scarcely knew how to plunge into all the explanations that would be neccs- essary.
 She entered the revolving door of the bank. And then she saw him! Dicks face lighted with a glad smile but Eyes froze in hor- TOT. It was not because he wal smoking his old briar pipe in q nonchalant manner. Here. in the midst of hurrying, well-groomed men and women. Dick had the temerity to be wearing his old slouch hat, baggy trousers and blue flannel shirt. And his coat had n streak of paint on one sleeve. What was more, he seemed entirely unconscious of his shock ing appearance and was coming toward her.
 "Dick!" Eve reproached him. "I didn't dream you'd come down in those old clothes!"
 "Well,' he said easily, "there was concrete to pour to-day so I didn't wear my tuxedo to work. Any how didn't have time to go home to change"

cocted to furnish much food value. Make use of the infinite variety of breads as well as the many sand wich filings in order to avoid monotony. Try to combine meat with grated and minced vegetables such as carrots. lettuce and celery in sandwich filings. The combi. nation gains both food value and piquancy.
 Carefully wrapped celery. rad ishes. carrot straws and hearts of cauliflower give balance to the lunch by supplying bulk and crisp ness to a diet that Is apt to be concentrated and soft. Cookies. cup cakes. individual baked custards and firm tapioca buildings offer variety for desserts. Fresh fruit always Is desirable and easy to pack.
