~ HRS put her final o. K. on
the copy before her. The ad-
vertisement for another issue
was on its way. and for a few
moments she could relax. She was
concerned with the idea of going away.
She wondered what would happen if
she asked for several weeks off. time
in which to hibernate by herself and
think things through. Watching with
idle eyes a big fly that buzzed and
bumped its head against the vim
dow pane, she day-dreamed.
There was a sudden thump of a
fist on the desk in the next office,
and an instant later Mr.. Boscombe
came bustling in. Automatically Chris
picked a heap of papers from the
extra chair and tossed them to the
floor.
you've another idea. Mr.. Bos-
combe," she said, accusingly, as she
sat down.
Indeed I have It's the best that's
ever come to me-" His reply was much
too enthusiastic for such a hot day,
and Chris cringed mentally.
Miss Sherman, we need some one
to go out in the field for our products.
Some one must contact small-store
managers, make it a Nationwide
thing. If we could reach the smaller
towns. we'd be sitting pretty"
1T might work." said Chris. In the
most private corner of her heart she
wished he had picked some other time
to get his idea. She wanted to be left
alone to dream a bit.
Il want you to do it,"
Her eyes swung down from the fly
that was now banging against the
ceiling to his eager face
Il want you to do it. No one else
has been here long enough to know
our stock. You are clever, well-spoken
and intelligent. I'd be proud to have
you meet these people as representa-
tive Of our firm" He glanced at her
shyly and added, THE biggest point
is your complexion. It's a supreme
advertisement for any cosmetic house"
