inc; richest girl in the world.
BRET HARDESTY - hero;

RODNEY BRANDON - Con-

KATIE BLYN-Connie's "dou-

Yesterday: Eloise discovers The
jewels in katie's room, tells Bret.
At that moment Katie enters,
challenges Bret to believe she is
honest.
CHAPTER XI
"Iou should know better than
that" Bret answered Comics
question. His dark eyes looked
into hers. Now they were COM
pletcly unguardcd, all barriers let
down.
So that, looking into them, she
saw what she had wanted to see
and all her anger was melted.
Her own eyes grew soft and shin
ing. That's all that matters,
she said simply. Ii seemed to her,
in this breathleSS moment, that 1t
was. She had forgotten that she
was Constance Corby. Forgotten
that Bret did not know who she
was. That the day must come
when she must tell him. She had
forgotten Eloise's bitter accuse
ton. Just as now, looking into
each others eyes, they both had
forgotten the other girls exist
ence.
They did not notice even when
she got up quietly and slipped
from the room,
Two long strides brought Bret
to Comics side He took her
hands in his. dearest" he said,
and his voice was husky, "you
know that l don't care who you
are, OF have been, | only know
that you're the only girl in the
world for me. And that | love
you"
And | love you, Bret HardeS-
ty,' Connie said. And then,
please" she whispered "aren't
you going to kiss me-"
Now she knew why she had
changed places with Katie Blyn,
why she had left her golden
world, why she had been born.
This was that lovely, secret rO-
nance that she had sought. This
was the hearts desire that Bret
had wished for her.
"Fetch a wrap Of some sort,
Bret said, after ne had kissed her,
without any more urging, and
most completely. "Well take a
walk. darling. Climb up to the
TOP of the hill by the little church

to tell you again how much | love
you
"And you're the gentleman who
claimed he had no time for ro-

and truly"

and truly"
Really and trulyw Connie
said; she crossed her heart, in
childhood fashion, to prove her
sincerity, to seal the vow between
them. Then she laughed gayly.
"But we must not be so solemn
about it! I've never had little
sister in my life, or real girl
friend. That is really and truly
too. believe me. This has made
me very happy, Eloise. And If
its done the same for you, take
your pearls and put them away
and keep them to remember me
by. always"
you sound as though you're
going away forever" Eloisc sand.
Her eyes were big and wide; but
her face no longer was so pale,
smile lowered around her CULVER
ing lips. "Just when we've be-
come friends, too"
But Pm only going for a walk
up the hillw Connie assured her.
She had taken her coat from the
closet, slipped into it. Now she
buttOned the collar close about
her neck, thrust her hands deep
into the pockets. But it might
have been a coat of ermine, so
shining was the look she wore, so
bright her eyes. her heart so full.
SO That the other girl turned
away as though she could not bear
to look upon such radiance.
81 thought you'd changed your
mind" Bret said, when Connie
came down. 81 thought you were
MT coming"
"I'n never change my mind"
she told him.
OH never let you" he warned
her. He put his arm through
hers; together they went out into
the. soft, starlit night; together
climbed he hill.
Oh, she thought, let me have
this little while, this one sweet
night, at least. Almost, it was II
sort of prayer. So fearful was
Connie that such happiness, such
throbbing joy, could not be last
ing.
Romance should be secret, that
real Katie Blyn had said. Secret
and sweet, shared by two alone
under staltlit sky by Il little
white church at the top Of hill.
Later, she would tell him. Tell
him that she was not Katie Blyn,
who worked for him in the con-
struction camp office, not girl
who had needed his help, on her
own against the world, not any
thing he believed her to be.
But this was her hour. 1t be-
longed to her; she had won it fair
ly. For it was she he loved, this
golden-haircd girl in his strong
arms, his lips on hers, their two
hearts beating as one. Constance
Corby, the richest girl in the
world, had nothing to do with this

Upstairs at the door of her
room Connie encountered Eloise.
Her pale face was streaked; her
eyes red and swollen. Il wanted
to tell you Pm sorry" she MUIR

the things | did. | know you're

voice faltered, she turned her
head; she could not go on.
Connie put her arms around
her, drew her close. 81 under
stand" she told this girl whose
defeat was her triumph, who had
given her heart into the same
mans keeping. Better than you
think / do. Come in moment,
Eloisc, please" She drew the girl
on inside, closed the door behind
them.
From the big oak bureau Con-
ME took the emerald brooch, the
ring, the exquisite cleaning
pearls. "They were my mothers"
she told ElOise, for that was true.
"'Shc left them to me, want you
to have these pearls" As she
spoke she claspcd them around
the slender white throat. "They
look like you, Eloise. They are
like you. See--look in the mir
ror, Aren't they becoming? As
translucent and lovely as your
skin, a fitting compliment to your
gorgeous hair ..
ooh, but I couldn't accept
them Eloise stared at her mir
rOred reflection. The pearls did
indeed become her. Why! she
could look like a princess, too,
had she had the fine raiment.
Never in her life had she looked
like this, hoped to own anything
so beautiful.
"Of course you can accept
them. | shall be hurt if you re-
fuse" Connie said. 81 want you
to have them, Eloise. | want to
give them to you
Little enough to give, when she
had so much more. Though Con-
ME was not thinking of her mil
lions. She was thinking Of Bret
who waited downstairs to walk
with her to the top of the hill, to
tell her again that he loved her.

filled with tears once more. "Aft-

You're sweet and kind, even
though you are different
"Then Wen be friends?' Con
ME smiled at her. you'll be my
little sister, as we'll as Bret's.'

girl more deeply by telling hen
that she had read her secret. Let

day in the bond market, with some
liens up around a point or more.
Industrials and utilities were mostly
mixed and narrow. United States
Government obligations were quiet and
showed little change. Foreign dollar
loans were about even, with few eX
ceptions. Czechoslovak IS of 1852,
which had not sold since october H.
advanced some 25 points to around IS.
The other Czech issue, IS of 1851. had
been near this level for some time.
One Of the factors in the rise in car
rier bonds, financial circles said. was
the runor current for some time that
the railroad wage controversy might
be compromised with a reduction of
around 5 per cent. Management had
originally asked Is per cent reduction.
Another bullish factor in rails was
improvement in September operating
income.
