DRUCE HAMILTON was bach

DRUCE HAMILTON was back at
ID his desk Monday morning. He
came striding into the Office with
buoyant, swinging step and
within five minutes the place was
album with activity.
Hamilton's trip had been success
full. 1t would mean several hun
dreds of dollars for Every Home. On
the train returning he had made no.
tationS which he wanted tran
Scribed at once. There were sew
eral long distance calls to be put
through.
Half a dozen times he sent Janet
hurrying down the hall to find Mr..
Douglass or Mr.. Cressy, to deliver
messages or bring back papers.
The Monday morning rush con-
tinued into the afternoon when
Hamilton had an appointment out
side the building During his alb
sence the long distance call he had
been expecting all day came through
and it took almost twenty minutes
Of determined effort before Janet
was able to locate him.
Then as soon as Hamilton had
finished talking to the out-of-
town agency, he called Janet back
and reversed earlier instructions
A large part of her afternoons
work had to be done over.
To add to her trials, Janet was
obliged to change a typewriter
ribbon - a small task which fc
some reason she always had found
extremely distasteful.
She was just getting at work
again, with the new ribbon in
place, when a small, round-faced
girl wearing a blue dress ap-
peared in the doorway.
When she saw that Janet was
alone she entered. 1t was Pauline
Hayden, who worked in the down
stairs office.
Well, did Simon Legree get
back?' she asked.
Janet smiled, You're not talk
ing about Mr.. Hamilton, are
yOu?"
Who else? That slave driv-
er-"
But he isn't" Janet objected.
oh, is that SOP Pauline shifted.
Say didn't I work for him during
your vacation last summer? I guess
1 know He's the worlds worst I
don't see how you sand it,"
But Mr.. Hamilton isn't hard to
work for He's considerable"
Sure, like a steam roller! But
should worry-he'S not my boss.
How about slipping down to the
lunch counter with me for cup of
coffee?"
Janet glanced at the clock. I'D
Ike to- she said heSitantly, "but
I'm afraid I can't"
Paullne'S head bobbed knowingly.
Legree wouldn't like it, I suppose!
III bet you don't get out of this
place until o'clock tonight"
AS it turned out it was almost that
time when Janet boarded the car to
ride home. Fortunately it was not
crowded and she found a seat.
She had been glad to be busy all
DAY. glad that there had been work
to do, but now she realized how
tired she was. Janet leaned back
YEARLY, thinking of the evening
ahead. All of the evenings were
long and dreary now that there was
nothing to look forward to.

1 though she had not been inter
rupted The other night when I
told you I didn't ever want TO see
you again I didn't mean it. I was
sorry afterWard.
I didn't mean the other things 1
said then, but I. mean them now!
It's funny TO think I've known you
all this time and yet never really
understood you II didn't know
you we're just a fortune hunter!"
WhirLng, half-blinded by tears,
she turned and almost ran down
the street. At the intersection she
hailed taxi, gave the address and
sank back gratefully into the shell
tering darkness Of the cab. The sobs
would stay back no longer and Janet
let them come.
HOURS later, sitting in her own
Il Il room, Janet heard a knock at
the door. She did not answer. 1t
might have been Josie or Mrs. Sny-
der or some one else to say there
was a message or telephone call.
Janet sat quite still, curled up
in the one big comfortable chair,
until whoever had knocked went
away.
She looked small, almost child
ish, with the pink bathrobe wrapped
about her, her hair pushed back in
careless disarray.
The light from the table lamp
across the room was subdued Janet
sat in the shadows and tried to tell
herself as she had for the last hour
that she should be glad things had
happened as they had.
Even though it hurt so much, it
was better to know that Rolf was
independable and tickle. She would
have had to find 1t out some time
He had forgotten all the promises
he had made or else never had
meant them.
Since Rolf was like that, it was
better to know. Oh, yes, much bet
teri If he thought he was in love
with Betty Kendall with her pretty,
expensive clothes and her rich
friends-if that was what Rolf want
ed she should be glad to know i'll
There were no tears in Janet's
eyes now. Tragic eyes they were,
looking out Of such a young face.
The tears had come and were
gone.
Janet, staring straight ahead, told
herself that she should hate Rolf,
but she could not do that. She
could only wonder how she was 10
live through the days to come. 1t
was all over now, of course. Every
thing!
She knew definitely that Rolf no
longer cared. What feeling he
might have had for her-and he
mad cared once-was gone.
I'll never see him again." she
thought. "Or if I do, it won't make
any difference. It's finished and I
mustn't care. I mustn't let myself
care"
But all the while she was argyll
ing against a losing game. Deep
in the farthest corner of her heart
Janet knew that it was not fin
ished.
She could never stop loving Rolf.
Knowing his faults, recognizing his
weaknesses, he was still the man
she loved, and Janet could not help
herself.

Apparently Rolf thought this
statement needed no comment
There was something he wanted to
say and it did not seem to come
easily.
They had reached a corner where
the only building was set back from
the street. There was no one else
near. Rolf slowed his step and said,

We shouldn't have quarreled that
way. I mean / wish we could be
friends"
She looked at him swiftly. The
young mans eyes were straight
ahead
Janet's own voice sounded hushed
and a trifle breathless. I'm sorry,
too" she said. Il didn't mean all

have said them.

she would marry him any time

But that wasn't what he wanted
He didn't want to marry her at all
She practically had thrown herself

The stock exchange today adopted
drastic rules covering options in
its drive to rid the market Of

Wall Street took this action as

Requiring full publicity, the

Of the law committee will restrict
companies from purchasing their

Haney Finds Initiation

the thing is inconsequential.
Spot Market Far Below
The spot market for the metal
remains so far below the an
nounced price" that anyone can
see that the market for it cannot
be much affected by mere psyche
logical treatment.
After the first uprush, profit
taking was heavy. Reflection
showed that the Government is
merely straining its credit a
little further by Overvaluing q
limited issue Of silver dollars.
But this thought was followed
by questions as to whether the
move may not be a step toward
initiation, as for example by is
suing silver certificates. The exist
ing willingness to tinker" with
our monetary system which the
move emphasizes, brought on
some initiation sentiment, and gold
stocks rose on Saturday.
CAS- far as that goes, the Gov
ernment is buying several times
more dollars worth of gold than
it is buying Of silver)
Feel" Difficult To Get
It is difficult to get any definite
"feel' of the markets action. At
a guess, however, I would expect
the averages to go one or two
points higher and then react a
little. If the volume Of trading
then declines on weakness and ex-
pandS on strength, one may ex-
pect a further rise.
But If we find a tendency to
get dull on advances, sinking
spells will be likely.
The real job now before the
market is to appraise the outlook
for business as affecting the earn
ing of corporations. Government
spending is unqueStionably fur
nishing a considerable stimulus
to business activity. but it does
not necessarily follow that this
means profits available for divi-
