she had everything but time.
At least, so she tried to tell her.
self.
Once more she picked up her
pen. The bills would have to be
mailed out that night. Anetka
would be pleased and laugh a lit
tie and cry a little when she saw
them. Mari counted on her
fingers. The debts incurred at
their opening were nearly paid off
and then there would be plenty of
money to save for the next shop
she had already planned.
Again she hesitated. Would it
be wise to plan another shop so
soon?
There, the last Of the bills was
finished. She wiped the ink from
her second finger and pick up the
Paris Herald.
She turned the pages hastily,
and then the telephone rang.
Reaching for the instrument, she
brushed the newspaper from the
desk.
Something else engaged her at
tention and the paper was picked
up by the porter and destroyed.
She was never to see the item
about Lame Weston's marriage to
her manager, a marriage that had
been possible only after the death
of his wife in a sanatorium. The
paper said that it had been a
romance of more than 10 years.
Had she seen it, she might have
brought her more mature point Of
view to bear on the situation that
had changed her life.
Mari Barat did have a more
mature point Of view. She had
changed in many ways.
Mark Sutherland found her
very changed when he came back
to Paris that year. Changed in
many ways save in the one that
he, perhaps, hoped for.
He had come once to see her
when they were in the little shop.
And then he had dropped out of
her life. Sometimes there were
brief, scrawled notes from some
corner of the earth. Once there
was a magnificent mandarin coat
from China in which, he said. he
hoped one day to see her. Mary
had philosophically overlooked the
message and enjoyed the coat.
Then there had been long cable
OF congratulations when the new
shop was opened.
And occasionally there was a
new customer who said that she

CHAPTER 18

FOR THE first time in their
association, Anetka put her foot
down on a suggestion made by
Mary-Mary's suggestion that she
adopt a baby.
A baby? What would they do
with it? How could Mary take
care of it? Why didn't Mary get
married and have babies of her
own?
In the end, Mary gave up and
comforted herself with the sub
stitution of a new department in
the shop. They would make in
fantS' wear.
So Mary haunted the parks
where the picture book children,
who are the Parisien petiteS. and
who looked like illustrators
fancies out of story books, played
with their nurses in provincial
garb attending them. She reveled
in the dog carts and the goat car
riages. She bought quantities Of
toys at the many stalls and pre-
sented them to the poor. She
laughed and applauded the puppet
shows, the petitS gugnelS that
have come down through hundreds
of years.
She watched the little ones
yachting" in the big basin Of the
Tuileries gardens; rode on the
camel, the elephant, and in the
oofr;ob J1.oxry-, oo1.v; q oo Of %Io Tor
din discrimination with a three
year-old borrowed for the occa-
sion. She drank warm milk from
the dairy at the same place and
bought a puppy for the small
Lulu.
That night, when she should
have been making sketches of the
detail she had seen on the tiny
frocks, she stared forlornly. out of
her window that looked on a
courtyard and felt the sadness of
a woman in love who is to have
no children of her own. No little
boy with eyes that crinkle up
when he smiles!
The department "a small COR
ner) of enfantS' wear was a bijou
at ANETKA'S. The tiny confec-
itions of white and pink and blue
went like hot cakes, Mary ex-
Iplained to Anetka. Mary designed
them-a loving task that took lit
tie of her time-and the work was
sent out to needlewomen who
made masterpieces Of. the minia-
Iture garments.
That was as near as Mari Barat
came to her second small dream.
Mary's third Christmas in Paris
was approaching. Not for her was
this to be lonely holiday. The
Wollaston's-Ivy and Ted, her
American friends of long standing,
were going to Brittany where
they'd taken an old farmhouse,
and there was charming English
man to join them. There would be
Christmas carols, a tree and stock
ings before the hearth. Mary
bought prodigiously. Gifts for
everyone and a short mink coat
for herself.
She meant to buy a pair Of sap
phire earrings for Anetka.
Thinking of it, she smiled. She
put down her pen and dropped her
chin on her hands. She tried to tell
herself how lucky she was. She
was u years old and she was a
successful business woman. She
had a small apartment on the
Seine, a bank account. a mink
coat. She had group of smart,
amusing friends.S She went to par

General Motors a fraction, after

Buying in the petroleum section
was centered in Standard Oil of
