 A brief announcement. Only three paragraphs. Married at 10 o'clock last night"-"Surprise to friends'-"White Sulphur Springs where they will spend their honey- moon."
 Janet read the words over and over. They danced before her crazily but those three phrases stood out, starting at her, while all the rest were dancing. She tore out the three paragraphs, dis carded the rest of the newspaper in a trash container. The crum- pied bit of newspaper was hidden away in her purse.
 She had been walking slowly. She would probably be late when she reached the office. Janet didn't care about that. She didn't seem to care about anything In the world. She knew now that until the moment when she saw that newspaper there had been deep down in her heart a feeling and Rolf would make up their quarrel. She hadn't recognized the feeling or admitted 1t but still it had been there. It had persisted in spite of everything.
 Well-it was gone now! Rolf and Betty Kendall were married. Janet saw them again dancing as she had seen them that night at Reigals'-Rolf's head bent slight 'ly, the girls eyes raised, laughing ing-Janet's own eyes closed tn- voluntarily to shut out the sight.
 "You mustnt!' she scolded herself. You mustn't think about things like that. You've got to go on!"
 And 50 she went on. Mechan- ically. Automatically. She went back to the office. hung away her coat and hat and set to work. Bruce Hamilton was waiting for her to get out the file of the Mac milan correspondence. She said, ."Yes, MT Hamilton" and "No, MT Hamilton" and her fingers flew as she took down the memorandum he dictated. She sat at her desk all afternoon and Hamilton didn't mo- tice that she looked paler or was more quiet than usual. Her work was as efficient as always. She worked until 5:15 and when she stood in the door and said Good night, MT Hamilton" the man only glanced up and smiled vaguely and said, "Good-night."
 Bruce Hamilton didn't know that his secretary's heart was breaking but there were others at the Every Home office who were more perceptiye. Janet knew when she entered the rest room next day why the buzz of conver- sation in the corner stopped abruptly as soon as she appeared.
 Madeline, who operated the switchboard and was also a sort of receptionist, and the two Dem nison sisters were grouped around the dressing table. There was a pause and then Cora Dennison, the older of the sisters, said with exaggerated casualness, "Oh. Janet = you don't happen to have 8 match, do your"
 Janet didn't and 1t seemed rather unnecessary to ask because there was a packet of matches soon as Cora saw them she began <n <o1ly nfA1x, ohn,,f nrrff oh a had seen in Marsh's window that was simply adorable"
 Janet surmised, and rightly, that as soon as she was gone the three heads would be bent to- gether again and that her name and Rolfs would be mentioned frequently. A
 Even Pauline Hayden made 1t plain that she had read of Rolf's marriage. Pauline went out of her way to be friendly and considerate and though Janet understood that the motive was kindly 1t was as painful as the other girls hushed comments.
 Two days dragged by and then the third brought surprise. It was Janet's birthday. She hadn't told anyone about fiat least she was sure she hadn't--but there was a birthday card waiting for her in the evening mail. It was from Tommy and Rosie Silvani and there was 8 picture of a woolly dog on the cover and a little verse under the flap. Janet couldn't remember telling the children the date of her birthday but Rosie was always ask ing question. She must have told then and forgotten about it. Sweet of the children to think about her!
 There was picture in the Times that evening under the cap- tion, "At West Virginia Resort" showing a young man with bag of golf clubs standing beside a girl in a white sweater. Both of them were smiling and beneath the picture were the words: "Mr and Mrs Rolf Carlyle of Lancas- ter photographed at White Sul- phur Spring, w. Va, where they are spending their honeymoon.
