drifted across James face as she
mentioned the landlords baby. IT
took a cab so you really didn't have
to meet me-"
AS she finished speaking an an
quished wall came from the end Of
the hall and Jane clspped q hand
to her forehead. "The little imp;
he's been screaming for an hour!"
Perhaps he's hungry" Elaine sug-
gested, trying to be helpful. She
followed Jane down the long hall
towards the door from behind which
came the screams. Babies always
cry when they're hungry. you know"
Soothes Crying Baby.
Hungry" Jane shook her head
as though to imply such thing was
impossible. II gave him a bottle of
milk Is minutes ago. What he needs
is a good padding, but I'm afraid
that If did spank him I'd break
him in two"
She flung open the door and bowed
deeply. "Your home, Miss War

to be greeted by a very determined
wailing which came from q baby
who lay kicking In his little white
crib. With sympathetic cry she
rushed across the room and picked
him up, smiling at his plump, rosy
checked loveliness. Cuddling him
close, she carried him about the
room grooming softly. After a few
moments the baby ceased his wailing
and threw his arms about her neck,
gurgling with sudden happiness.
There" she said with a smile,
placing him back into the crib and
drawing the comforter over him, all
he needed was a little petting.
Jane was almost popeyed. How
ir the world did you know that?"
1--WE always liked babies, Jane"
Elaine told her simply. Back in
Lynville used to spend hours TAX
ing care of them. After a while I
learned that If you petted them a
little at the right time they'd be-
have"

necessary. Nope, a job in the de-
partment stores gets you nothing but
rotten living. an you don't ad-
vance, you don't get anything. II
I was you I wouldn't take the job" !"
Elaine found herself smiling at
him. Am supposed to starve to
death?"
He heaved a sigh as he eased the
cab to stop beside the curb. That's
the whole trouble with this coun-
try" he told her, swapping the flag
down on the meter. THE big shots
can make you slave like that cause
you need the dough. Well-some
day-that'll be so cents, lady,"
Reaches Her Home"
Elaine paid him and climbed out
OF the cab. It wasn't until after he
had driven away that she realized
she had met one of New York's leg
endary taxicab drivers. Smiling, she
faced the house in which she was
to live.
1t was an fashioned, three
story brownstone house with q high
stoop and iron-grilled door: quite
similar to other houses that lined
both sides of the street. She ran
quickly up the steps and pressed the
doorbell. The door was opened by
a woman who, had she been dressed
IN mems clothes. would have been an
exact image of DR.. Stuart.
You must be Elaine" Jane said
with a grin, stepping back from the
door. Il would have met you at the
station but the landlord and his wife
decided to catch an early show at
the Capitol and I had to mind their
baby"
Elaine smiled at the expression of
long and patient suffering that

Elaine didn't know whether to ac-
cept the sandwich or call Jane. But
there was something about his care
free manner which somehow made
her believe him and after but an
other moments hesitation she took
the sandwich. As it turned out,
there had been no need for her to
call Jane, for that young lady, hear
Ing voices in the kitchen, had come
to investigate.
Jack OMalley!" she cried, eyes
blazing as she saw him sitting at
the table. How dare you come un-
invited into my house?"
"Whist!" he said, shaking his
head dolefully. THAT is q cruel
way you have Of speakin' to your
boy y-friend."
I'm going to nail that window
down" Jane said, turning to Elaine.
Every time he goes broke he comes
In here and chisels whatever food
he finds in the icebox. You'd think

Jane Laughs.
Elaine glanced at Jack who sat
unruftled during this TRADE and
then turned to placate Jane. "He-
he doesn't have any money" she
told her, "and maybe he is hungry.
I'm sure there's enough food for all
of U.s."
Jane laughed scornfully. "As a
policeman he earns $50 a week. II
he didn't spend that gambling he'd
be saving money instead of being
always broke"
All the while she had been talk
ing Jack had been busily engaged
IN making sandwiches. He rose as
she finished speaking and stuffed
two of the sandwiches into his
pocket.

side her while she inspected the
room. II naver expected to md q
place as nice Is this" she told her
frankly. "It's SWELL"
"You haven't seen anything yet" )"
Jane declared, leading her into the
bedroom. How do you like this?"
Elaine walked in behind her, hop
Ing that it would not prove q dis
appointment after the living room.
It wasn't, for 1t was too large and
well-furnished, with two bureaus
twin beds and rug almost an exact
duplicate Of the one on the living
room floor. In here. too, were hung
more OF James work and Elaine
found herself looking with awe at
the slight, homely girl. Jane appar-
emily was capable Of doing an un-
believable amount of work, choosing
her subjects with the happy aban-
don Of true artist.
A little clock in the living room
slowly chimed II and as Elaine
opened her bags, which had been
delivered the day before her arrival,
she was amazed at how swiftly the
time had slipped by. Remembering
that she had decided to visit both
Monticelli and Clara's father that
very afternoon, she hastily began to
unpack her bags. But Jane, when
told Of her plans, would have none
of that.
"You can unpack them any time, /"
she said crisply, "and If you're going
to run around all afternoon the best
thing for you right now is a good
meal"
Elaine Is Hungry.
Correct" Elaine exclaimed, sud-
denly becoming aware that she was
hungry. She closed her bags with
a sheepish smile. Goodness, you'd
think I was leaving New York in q
week, the way I'm rushing"

"A brick does not have to be
thrown at me-" he rumbled, II can
take q hint. will be leavin' you"
He bowed formally to them both.
Il offer my thanks to you." he said
to Elaine, "and as for you, Miss
Stuart. you'll never be see,n' mo
again."
Elaine could scarcely suppress q
giggle as he solemnly climbed out Of
the window and began to make his
way up the fire escape steps.
Jane rushed over to the window.
Jack, would you have time to take
Elaine over to her music teachers
house?"
Elaine had expected he would
ignore Jane completely and was
surprised when he came back down
the steps. "I1l be goin' on duty In
an hour" he told her.
ITS right near here" Jane urged.
"Elaine's in a hurry and don't
want her to waste time getting
lost"
"I1l be putin on me uniform
then, seein' how it's the gracious
collen who wants the favor" Jack
said, a twinkle cleaning in his eyes.
He began climbing back up the fire
escape. "1ll be ready in Is min
utes."
"Oh, Jane, perhaps you shouldn't
have bothered him." Elaine said
after he had gone. I'm sure ]
could find Monticelli's studio all
right"
You'd get lost" Jane declared
knowingly. She moved busily about
the kitchen putting things in or.
der. "And besides, Jack really
doesn't mind. He'd give a person
the shirt of his back If any one
needed It,"

Jane laughed - they returned to
the living room. "You 60 on ahead
into the Kitchen" she directed,
paused beside the crib. "Ill put
his nibs In the bedroom"
Elaine walked down the little hall
way Jane had indicated and opened
the kitchen door. An alarmed gasp
came from her lips as she entered
the room to find q coatless, unshaven
man sitting nonchalantly at the
table spreading cream cheese and
Jelly over two chunks Of bread. She
halted nervously, wondering who he
was, wondering, too, II he had any
right to be In the kitchen.
He smiled amiably, not bothering
to rise. ""rs the colleen Jane has
been expectin'," he said In q rich
Irish brogue. my name is Jack
O'Mally, and you, If I'm not guessin'
wrong. are Elaine Warburton. Would
you be carin' to eat?"
Elaine looked at him, still hesitant,
His face was frank and honest and
he did not know who she was. but
still Jane hadn't told her he was
there. She did move slowly to the
table. II did come In for something
to eat" she confessed. Does Jane
know you're here?"
O'Malley Is Generous.
"She does not" He pointed q
stubby finger at the window that
opened on a fire escape. Hungry I
was. and me wallet is empty. So,

half finished painting Of cathedral,
and she looked with interest at
Jane. II didn't know you were an
artist"
Jane laughed dryly. I'm not.
But the people why buy my stun
haven't found that out yet"
Elaine smiled at this sally but
decided that Jane was simply being
modest. A person with but half an
eye for pictures could tell that James
work was good. Deciding, however,
that Jane neither expected nor de-
sired further comments on the paint
Ing, she lapsed into silence and re-
sumed her inspection Of the apart
ment.
It was really much nicer than she
had expected to find for such q low
rental. The living room, shaped in
sort of rectangle, was large and
well-furnished, with two soft
couches, five comfortable looking
easy chairs strewn about on the
thick, brightly-colored rug which
ran the length of the room. Near
the window there stood a small
piano which looked as though it had
been through the wars, but Elaine
was pleased with it nevertheless, for
1t implied that Jane shared her love
for music. At either side of the
room stood an fashioned, we'll
filled bookcase, while at irregular
intervals along the gray-papered
walls hung pictures the like of which
she had never seen. Elaine raised
a hand to hide her smile. Appar-
emily these pictures were James
pride and Joy, the type which is
never sold but carefully treasured
against that day when a person be-
comes not just a mere painter but
an immortal artist.
She turned with satisfied smile
to Jane who had stood silently be-

"You must be up against it."

I suppose I should keep my trap
