have for an intimate friend, and
now hat she had cut herself off
from Fayson's she decided it. would
be better to let things stay as they
we're.
AS she sat alone in the evenings
her thought turned often to Rod.
Had he a steady nowadays, she
wondered. Was she that stunning
looking girl she had seen him meet?
Her eyes filled with tears. She real
lied that she had deliberately cut
herself off from happiness.
Patsy had never mentioned Rod
since Maris had come back. Some
how she'd been expecting her to
say something about him, maybe
to suggest that she should call him
up or ask him to come to see her.
Her tears fell fast. Maybe Patsy
realized she had had about enough
to stand; that the knowledge-if it
really were so-that he had trans
ferred his affections elsewhere
would hurt her SO much. Pat prob
ably thought thar it would be
kinder never to mention his name,
And yet as she laid her sewing
down and wiped her terrified eyes:
she felt a desperate longing to
know about Rod, even if he were
going to marry some other girl. At
least her heart would be at rest,
and she would try 70 build up her
broken life, to fill it with other in
terests. She knew now that she
would never really love anyone as
she had loved Rod, and felt there
could be no one else.
The bell rang. 1t was only the
mailman with a card from Jimmy
and Patsy, I'VE are having a lovely
time" they wrote. ''Wish you were
with u.s." She laughed as she read
: the message written in Jimmy
careless handwriting. That would
be a nice idea-to be their chap
erone on their honeymoon.
But somehow when she found
she could laugh, her fit of the blues
seemed suddenly to dissolve. Even
if she might never again know the
sweetness of Rods love, she must
try to keep from getting soured.
Then she thought of the Daw-
sons in their comfortable home in
the CONNECTICUT Valley. Shed

Then, as there's a chance he may
be transferred to some other city in
a few months, we were thinking
we might stay here till we see what
happens"
"Oh, but this will be no place
for mel" cried Maris.
Of course it will. If we get mar
ried next Saturday, then we're 60
ing away for a two weeks trip.
and could stay here and look after
things"
"That would be lovely, but it
doesn't seem fair that I should DC
living off you"
Living off me! Nonsense
There are a lot Of things I want
done and if you'll do them for me
that will more than pay back any
thing it will cost for your keep
And then, who knows, something
may turn up for you by that time
Anyway, you don't need to worry
for Jimmy will BE perfectly happy
to have you here"
And So, on Saturday evening

married, and started for their wed

'T'm afraid I'm making an aw-
full lot of trouble for you, Mrs.
Dawson" said Maris. e'I'm sure I
can get up now"
YOU'D better not. A bite of
supper and then a good nights rest
and you'll be ready to start off in
| the morning. Not that I want
you to leave in such a rush, but

eyes, that's so,' said Pat. "Well,
I'll come down with you and then
Il can bring Maris' supper up to
her."
By sever o'clock next morning
Maris was headed for the city, but
this time she had no fear that any
moment might be her last. Jimmy
Doyle, while a good driver, never
took chances, especially when Patsy
was riding with him.
Already Maris had shaken off
the terror that seemed to possess
her, and as she told Patsy little in
cidents of her hectic love affair.
she was almost able to jest about
them. The Dawsons had treated
her as a sort of heroine because Of
her part in trapping the criminals.
Taking it altogether, in spite Of all
the discouraging things that she
had gone through, Maris knew that
life still lay before her, and that
there would be other opportunities
for her to show Patsy that she
wasn't altogether the fool she in
sisted on calling herself.
But when they reached home
and entered the little flat once
more, Maris began to realize what
her escapade had cost her. She'd
lost her good position and the
chance to get a better one, and
now with conditions still none too
rosy she realized that it wouldn't
be such an easy thing to pick up a
job.
'But you don't need to worry
about that. You need a holiday
anyway, 50 why don't you make up
your mind to stay home and keep
house?"
keep house," asked Maris.
"Since when could we afford to
have one of us do that?"

promised Tillie she'd send her some
candy.
So, slipping on an apron, she
went into the kitchen and started
to make her preparations.
Setting her scales on the table,
measuring out the sugar, and tax
ing down her box of flavoring,
Maris started her candy-making. 1t
was a nice cool afternoon and her
caramels turned out beautifully.
She was just debating whether to
make another batch when suddenly
the door bell rang.
Pulling off her apron, and
smoothing her harr, she hurried to
the door. But when she opened it,
her heart almost turned over. Rod
O'Rorke was standing on the
threshold!
"Well, Maris, aren't you going
to ask me in?" he questioned as he
held out his hand.
"Of course" she whispered,
while her cheeks grew rosy, and a
sudden sparkle 1eaped into her eyes
"But Jimmy and Patsy are still
away"
"That's fine. I guess they're hav-
ing a good time. It's wonderful
weather for an auto trip" he said
He stepped inside and hung his hat
on the hall rack just as he used tc
do.

FINAL CHAPTER

'What do you mean-commit-
ted a crime?" There was a terrified
look in her dark eyes.
"Well, they've just discovered
he's been at the head of a bunch of
racketeers who were Systematically
robbing his father"
"How could he do that?" asked
Maris, suddenly remembering some
thing Jimmy had once limited at.
"Well, he tipped them off when
truck loads would be leaving the
mills. Then the bandits would hole
them up, knock OUT the drivers anc
turn the stuff over to another
bunch of men who would dispose
of it and hand Stanley his share
"But surely they won't do any
thing to him?" asked Maris, emem.

of the ~ringleaders and because Star
tried to cheat them out of more

scandal about it ALL"
"Oh, Patsy; surely they can't say
anything about me?"
"What could they say, Mari
dear? Not a thing. Of course
wouldn't wonder if STAINS scarce

what may have happened to you
But there-that's all past. o.
course, though, you will have te

"But, Milly-Oh Pats, yor

asked. ;
"You know | would. l haven't
tasted a decent bit of candy since
He hesitated abruptly, and
Maris wondered what he had in
tended to say.
But, leading the way into the
kitchen, she said, "Help yourself,
while l put all this trash away" and
quickly she gathered up her mate
rials.
They're great, Maris, the finest
ever. What are you going to do
now?"
"Oh, finish sewing Patsy's cur-
tains, l suppose"
"Wouldn't you like to go to a
show?"
Maybe" said Maris, as she bent
over her sewing. Did Rod still love
her, she wondered. Surely if he was
going with that other girl he would
not invite her to go out with him.
Still, maybe he'd expected to see
Jimmy and Patsy; maybe he was
just being polite. If only she knew
where she stood with him!
Then she remembered, she had
suggested they should just be
friends. Had he taken her at her
word? The color dyed her cheeks as
she wondered if he knew anything
about her adventure. Of course
she'd never said anything to Patsy
about keeping quiet about it. But
Patsy wa 50 loyal, she didn't need
to do that.
There was silence in the little
room for a long minute. Then ROD
put his hand on her slender arm,
Don't you want to put that stuff
away, Maris? It's a long, long time
since I've had a talk with you"
eyes," murmured Maris, but she
did not raise her eyes. Would she
ever feel gay and light-hearted
again as she used to when Rod and
she were friends? Carefully, she
folded up her sewing and laid it on
the table. Then as she turned and
faced him again, he caught her in
his arms and drew her to him.
I Raising her face to his, he looked
long into her dark eyes, "Maris, my
sweet, I've been trying to forget
you, but it's no good. | can't, dear
heart. Don't you think you coulo
love me just a little? I've missed
you SO, my dear"
Her arms frightened about his
neck and as she nestled against his
heart, she murmured, 'No, Rod,
can't love you just a little, for all
this time I've been loving you with
my whole heart-just you"
Darling he whispered, "you
really mean that?" and again she
raised her face to his. But when he
saw her glowing eyes he knew she
spoke the truth and as their lips
met, Maris knew that this was in
deed the man for her.
And she knew that her most
thrilling day was still to come.
when she went to the altar as Rod
bride-a real bride this time, with
a real man, who would love and
cherish her, for her bridegroom.
