ing him with drinks, would he
probe further, either on his own
or Harriet BrewSter'S behalf?
But Brock had sworn he wouldn't
drink at this party. Wanting to
make a hit with Harriet Brewster,
it behooved him to be careful.
Before Toni had time to find
him, Brock himself walked into
the bar, and came up to them.
She introduced them. At the
same time she gave a warning
pressure to Brooks foot. He said
blithely: Haven't I run into you
somewhere before?"
"At LIE Chateau de Ia Marquise.

The fact that it was she who
had vouched for him among these
people would be held against her.
And yet she had to do it, because
she, herself, was pretending to
be something that she wasn't.
Leaving Brock to her hostess,
she passed into the drawing-room
beyond.
There were mirrors everywhere.
Big family portraits Of more or less
homely but blue-blooded men and
women. Small statuetteS. Expen-

A sudden wIStful longing came

CHAPTER Xxx
Reflected in one Of the great
mirrors she saw Guy greet his
hostess on the landing.
At sight of him, color sprang to
her cheeks. Her heart beat fast.
She stood as If rooted to the
spot.
JOY IS EVIDENT
Miss BrewSter'S joy in seeing
him was evident. Their right hands
clasped in greeting, she put her
left hand on his arm. They turned
to the great sheaf of roses. He
was smiling his rare smile. Miss
Brewster released her hold, lifted
long-Stemmed bloom from the
vase, snapped it off short and
fastened 1t in his lapel.
Look, a thorn!" She turned
up her palm. symbolic Of a gift
from you, isn't it?" Her face was
close to his. She pouted provoca-
lively.
Over and beyond Miss Brewster's
shoulder, he saw Toni in the glass.
She felt that she was spying, and
moved hastily on to the bar, where
a few people had already gathered.
Several of them grabbed her,
and the young man who had Sug-
gested getting rid of Brock at the
night club, came up to her at
once.
"You look lovely, marquise. You
disappeared so quickly the other
evening or almost daWning,
wasn't it?-that was afraid that
somewhat tight admirer of yours
had kidnapped you. In fact, I was
so worried I went to look for you,
but you'd vanished"

She said: "Oh, he's really a

During January, February and
March of this year, mortgages ac-
oepted for insurance by the Federal
Administration totaled $1O2, 2,9975OO.
au increase Of "a per cent over the
corresponding period of 1886.
In March, the gain was especially
large, nearly doubling the figures
fer lhe same month of last year. A
total of $43,790,560 in mortgages ac-
ceptad for insurance were reported
during the month, a gain Of 98.8 per
cent over March, 1886. The volume
during March were larger than for
any month in the records of the
Federal Housing Administration
with the exception of June and
October, 1886. This was considered
significant in view Of the fact that
June and October are usually the
peak building months of the year
The rising residential building
volume is further emphasized by the
fact that 50 per cent of the mortg-
ages accepted for insurance during
the period were for newly CON
sTUcted homes.
These figures bear out earl er pre-
dictions by the Federal 1Lousing
Administration of accelerated ac-
tivity in home construction and fl
