BEGIN HERE TO-DAY

Daphne Brett loved Larry Smith
architect. Larry asked her te
marry him. But Daphne had re-
peatedIy refused because she
wanted to lay aside sufficient
money first to see Jcnnifer well
launched on career.
Jennifer had proved the selfish
young sister. defying every wish
and even going SO far as to try
elopement with Tucker Ainsle y
wealthy plsyboy. And then Jen.
infer met Gordon Herzberg, fam.
GU. theater man, and seemed to
have found her right work.
One day, meanwhile. Daphne re-
eeived orders fro mher advertis.
ing firm to make a two-months
sales tour Of the country. At the
same time Larry, ordered to Spain
on q business trip, again asks Da-
pine to marry him. And Daphne
refuses because she needs the
bonus the trip provides for Jen'
infer. But this she does not ex.
plain to Larry.
Larry, of course, not knowing
Daphne's real reason, decides she
has chosen a career in preference
to love. He says aoodby and he
does not return. Daphne starts
on her trip, broken-hearted. In
Detroit she receives a girl friend's
letter revealing Larry hadn't gone
to Spain after all.
NOW co ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XIX
Daphne Brett sat on the wing
chair Of her hotel room in Detroit
and read and re-read that letter.

How many times that word had

it all went back to one clear thing
Larry hadn't understood her,
hadn't believed in her or he would
not have believed that her career
meant more to her than her love.
Sometimes she, couldn't believe
it was true. But it was. Larry
had said. "Then, this is goodby."
And it had been goodby.
She could have gone after him,
told him the truth, that she want
ed money for Jcnnifer, but again
she went around in the same cir

her. -. ..-t' ...a .,..
She tried. not to think of it: Yet
when she. fell into her hotel bed
or Pullman berth on that cross
country trek it was only to lie
in the dark and ponder on the mis-
fortune that has withered the
beauty Of her love.
Once her day had begun with
breakfast on a train, in a hotel or
in a railroad station lunch room,
It was q mad scramble to assemble
trunks and staff, to establish pre-
arranged contacts with the shops
showing her display. She had

Maude and Jack Rutherford have
