What's this king Of finance like,
anyhow" Kay demanded dropping
on the bed and propping her chin
on her linked fingers. I'm dying
to see him. If the country clubbers
thought we had bagged such a big
bird. they'd all be on our doorstep.

COON they were alone together,
~ and the man turned toward her.
Il like them all" he told her
swiftly. They're great, your peo-
pie. just what one might expect, "
Thank you" She flushed at his
honest admiration.
"Monnie. 1 haven't long to stop.
I must settle this business quickly.
Do you know what I've come for?"
That was a hard question to an
Swer in all simplicity, but her eyes
were eloquent.
Have you though it over, dear?
l hate to rush you, but it seems to
me I've been waiting a long time
What have you 20 say to me?"
She lifted her head. The words
were trembled on the tip of her
tongue. but just then there was an
interruption in the form of a long
peal at the bell Sounds from the
kitchen regions indicated Kay and
the mother were busy with domes-
tic duties and had not heard the
sound.
I'll co. Monnie said swiftly,
somehow glad of the respite.
She fastened to the door, making
a pretty picture in her swiriing
frock, her cheeks rosy, her eyes
alight with excitement. To her
amazement, Charles EuStace stood
on the threshold.
May I come in for a moment,
Monica?" He was looking very
handsome. Il want to talk to you"
What could she say? What could
she do? He had never been refused
admittance at this hospitable door
before.
Monnie opened it wide, and he
followed her into the room where
Mackenzie, lounging against the
mantelpiece, examined some old
photographs.
I'm sorry. I didn't know you

Steely, polite. But Monica, having
brought him thus far, had to 60 on.
In cool voice she introduced the
men. Mr.. Mackenzie, Mr.. Eus-

Mackenzie turned, recognition
dawning in his face, his annoyance
for the moment in allegiance.
How do you do. But we've met
before!"
Charles acknowledged the sem
tense with an ironic bow.
Whatever shall I do with them
both?" the girl asked herself de-
spairingly. Everything is spoiled
now. Charles hates me for having
Arthur here-not that it mattersl

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE

HOING down into the neat little
NJ parlOr, MOnnie was abruptly
conscious of the rooms shabbineSs.
The rug long since had faded, its
bright original pattern lost. They
had bought the couch in the corner
the year Daddy died and somehow,
since, there had never been enough
money to recover it. There was a
worn place on one of the cushions.
The curtains were spotless, like
everything else m Mrs O'Dare's
home, but they had quite obviously
been patched and darned. There
were scufIed markS-the sort small,
sturdy shoes make-on all the
chairs and on the upright piano.
How shabby. Monnie thought with
a pang, all this would look to the
urban eyes of her distinguished viSi-
tor All, but she chOuld change all
this in the twinkling of an eye if
only she wanted to!
No longer need her mother ruin
her eyes over fine mending. prolong-
ing the life of damask and wool.
No longer need the table be set with
cracked Clipped china. The O'Dares
could have silver and fine linen.
Her mother could have luxury be-
yond her brightest dreams. Monnie
considered that she had known the
wildnesS and despair of first love
and it had brought her nothing.
Arthur Mackenzie would bring her
the calm, assured devotion of mid
ole age. Along with this he could
offer her security and assurance.
These thoughts raced through
Monnie's mind as, before the mir
TOR in the hall, she touched her
hair nervously, smoothed her frock.
What are you thinking of?" Kay
asked.
MOnnie made a sweeping gesture.
Wondering what he'll think Of
all this
Won't like it?"
'Wont-?' Monnie Wrinkled her
nose. L don't much care whether
he does or not. was thinking how
dull this place must be for mother.
She knows every worn place in the
rug, every scratch on the furniture.
! was wishing l could make a clean
sweep OF II all, get her new things. A."
nYE know" Kay interrupted
IL with an air of sagacity. Il
don't believe she minds so much
not as We do. Every bit of 1.-THE
shabbiness I mean-is home to
Mother. We're always going about,
seeing other peoples things and
being envious. But she never COM
plains"
Just the same, I'd like to be able
to get her new things said Mon
nie Sturdily. And some one to help
her-to wash dishes and do the
heavy part of the cleaning. She
must have washed millions of dishes
in the last ten years"
Not for mel yawned Kay lazily.
Il never mean TO wash any. When
I'm an old maid I shall live in one
room-a Studio-and have a maid
in a gray uniform to wait on me.
That would be nice" Monnie
agreed dreamily, Strengthening a
picture. Where is Nuns, by the
way?"
she ran across to Mrs. Cox's,
with some broth. Della is sick with
flu or something"
Il wish she'd rest once in a
while" Monnie complained. She
never stops. 1t worries me-"

PUSH REPEAL,
RELIEF BILLS
u. S. Senate Expects to
Act This Week on
Two Measures.

By ScrippS-H0card Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-The
senate this week may take final &C
ton on two far reaching legislative
proposals.
1t will pass modified prohibition
repeal amendment before Saturday,
Senator John j. Blaine Rep.,
Wis.,, author of the measure, pre-
diets.
Passage of the Wagner bill, iber-
alizing the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation law will follow speed
lily, Senator Robert Wagner Dem,
N. " says.
Senate leaders are described as
tired of the inaction which has
marked the last ten weeks of the
lame duck" congress.
The Blaine measure, as it stands
now, is not satisfactory to Blaine
nor to other wet leaders, who will
endeavor to eliminate some Of the
Objectionable features.
Senators predict, however, that
the required two thirds vote will be
obt2ined even though the objection
able sections are retained.
After a series of delays, the Wag-
ner relief amendment, which has
PreSident-Elect Roosevelt's indorse-
ment, probably will be approved
Tuesday by the senate banking and
currency committee. A Subcom-
mittee already has Endorsed the
measure.
Should the prohibition debate
show signs of continuing longer
than anticipated, the repeal amend
ment will be laid aside to take up
the Wagner bill.

master general Walter F. Brown
warned today that if the 5 per cent
economy provision is retained in the
treasury-postoffice supply bill, 1000
or 5000 postal employees, will be dis

his department of approximately

that could be accomplished without
resort to pay roll reductions would
be $40 900 900.
