CHAPTER XI


 CHAPTER XI
 Leaning back in the cab, Pats gave herself up to a few moments of rapturous thought. Don loved her. He had proved it without shadow of doubt. But she must not allow his mistaken gallantry to go on. Turning over plans in her mind she decided upon the simplest. Some how she would slip into her room without being seen. Then minus the brown wig and glasses, she would calmly, perhaps not too calmly, walk in on Don and tell her story.
 He might be angry; very likely he would. But when that was over, when he realized the truth ---ah, thenl She still thrilled to the strength of his arms, the ten- derness of his touch as he wiped her tears away.
 By means of the servants ele- vator she stealthily gained the safety of her room. Quickly she crossed to the inner door and bent her head to listen. Evidently Don had lately come in. He was talking to Sims. He was going away for few days. Sims should order bite from the cafe and leave the door on the latch while he helped pack. He was to notify Don the minute Mrs. Monterey came in.
 Pats threw her hat and coat on the bed. The sooner the better now. Deity she used cream, powder, rouge and lipstick, ran comb through her spun gold hair and pushed it into soft waves. The beating of her heart smothered her, cold shivers prick led her arms. The next few mo- ments meant so much, the begin ming or the end of happiness. All at once she became rigid, listening. Voices in the living room. Oh, why hadn't she hurried? Must her inti- mate disclosures be made before the hostile eyes of the law? Then Don's voice, rough with irritation, broke above the murmur.
 Hello, Rosie" Pats relaxed. Rosie might not be welcome
 "The door was unlatched so we walked in," Rosie returned with an undertone of nervous tension. Meet my lawyer, MT. Bradlo- vich."
 Instantly Pats scented trouble. Rosie with a lawyer. She leaned closer to the door. Every word came to her distinctly.
 First Don, trying vainly to hide his impatience. Very nice of you to stop but I'm in a deuce of a hurry. Another time perhaps" ;"
 Then the lawyer, suavely bland. "What I have to say is of the ut most importance"
 And Don, breaking in, "I'm not interested in what you have to say. See my lawyer-go as far as you like-but excuse me"
 "Not so fast, my dear fellow"
 You'd better hear what he has to say, Don," broke in Rosie with a triumphant sheer.
 "Ill handle this, Miss Akersr- if you don't mind MT. Bradlo- vich continued in a dry tone. q think you will wish to settle this matter personally, MT. Monterey. Miss Akers has suffered a grave injustice at your hands"
 "Grave injustice, my eye" Don's voice was steely with exasperation. "We1l discuss Miss Akers' troubles at another time."
 "There is no better time than the present. Coming quickly to the point, MT. Monterey, Miss Akers is about to bring suit against you"
 And on what grounds?" Don whirled around to face the at torney.

NEW YORK, July 30.-Most divi-
slons Of business held in a steadier
course this week, although some lines
dragged along at slow pace, Dun a.
Bradstreet said today in the Weekly
Review.
Retail sales went ahead 3 to z per
cent from the preceding week. but the
extension Of gains over the 1886 COM
parable week was shortened in many
districts, the agency said.
Industrial operations. however, dem
onstrated surprising Summer strength
as customary seasonal recessions were
further postponed In many divisions
and more factories reopened after va
cation shutdowns.
OF retail trade the Review said:
Summer merchandise moved with q
celerity unmatched in many years. To
the numerous special clearances, fea-
turing price reductions, were added the
attraction Of early August promotions
Hot weather brought a more rapid
turnover Of both lightweight clothing
and vacation accessories, helped by
record tourist travel in many parts of
the country"
New England States reported gains
over year ago of from to - per
cent; East, to l8; Middle West, IL
to 20; Northwest, IA to 20; South, l2
TO rs; Southwest, II to 80, and Pacific
Coast, 10 to 20.
The agency gave fresh confirmation
OF the especially bright outlook for
agriculture. 1t said: Expansion Of
orders for farm implements, following
the marketing of enlarged crops in
most areas, forced manufacturers to
add extra shifts, instead Of observing
the usual Summer reduction program
at this period"
Buying in principal wholesale mar
Kets, the Review said, failed to rise
much from the rate of the preceding
week, although orders continued gen.
erous for early Fall requirements.

The decrease followed a $4,000 900

quate to maintain easy money" con-
ditions.
The decline for the week ended July
28 was traceable in part to $4,000 600
increase IN Treasury deposits with Fed

 Surprise and astonishment were experienced by the audience last night, however, when the cast failed to respond after the curtain had raised for the opening number, and the rumor was spread that the per- formers were sitting down and on strike. Director Cliff McHale acted as a one man board of arbiters, how ever, and soon settled the ,difflcul- ties. Yes, it was a joke, and the audience which included about 700, applauded warmly
