WHAT HaS HAPPENED SO FAR. Joan Hastings and her sweetheart, Bill Martin, are separated when her stern aunt, Evvie Van Fleet, learns of the romance and sends Joan away to school without seeing Bill. Enroute from her home in Sausalito, California, to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Joan slips off the train and goes back to Bill’s home only to learn that he had left town. Unknown to Joan, Bill had gohe to see her and learned from Evvie that she had gone away. Evvie upbraided Bill, saying that if he really loved her i he would not try to find her as he had nothing to offer Joan. So he ; left home to make good. Unable to return to her aunt’s home, Joan goes to San Francisco. She lives : with good-natured Mrs. Maisie ! Kimmer, whose daughter, Fran- 1 cine, gives Joan a position model- ! ing in her exclusive Maison Francine. Wealthy Curtis Barstow falls in love with Joan but her heart is still with Bill though she believes he no longer cares. Lyla Barstow i disapproves of her son’s interest in Joan. Bill is befriended by Rollo Keyes, wealthy playboy, whose father gives Bill a position. He learns surveying and is well on the road to success. Unable to stay away any longer, Bill returns home to try and find Joan. He meets Dolores Gerwin, his former employer's flirtatious wife, who sarcastically reveals that Joan is a model at Francine’s. , NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER XXV On the ferry he forgot Gerwin, and the pathetic, lovesick woman with the hot. dark eyes, and the cloud of dusky graying hair. He only thought of Joan, and holding her close again. “How did I ever stay away so long?” he wondered. He clenched his hands in his pockets, and paced up and down the deck. “Maybe it was a good thing we did get all bawled up. If I had known she was here, I’d have been here too, I’d never have stayed on with old man Keyes—” And he thought of the position he had, and the affection the old man had for him, and the little money in the Bakersfield bank. “Maybe it’s all for the best!” He wondered how she’d look when she saw him. Would she look up at him with the glad, welcoming smile, and her heart in her eyes as she 1 used to do? Or would there be a strangeness at first, and a shy groping for his hand- “It’s been so long. Bill—so long.” i* * * He found the place, a door next to a florist’s shop. A window in which was displayed one glittering costly gown, a pale ermine wrap thrown over a carved bench beside It. A flask of amber Colored perfume. a long string of pearls, a small heap of barbaric bracelets. This was where Joan worked. This was the place. He walked by the door, humming. Then he walked back, clearing his throat angrily. What did he care for a bunch of women? But the place was full of them. A fine figure he’d cufl? walking in there, asking for Joan. Meeting her, with the curious eyes of strangers upon them. He shook his head. It wouldn’t be right. Oh if he only knew where she lived. Her home. He could go to her home, find her alone. What a prize idiot he’d been to dash out of the house the minute his mother said she had lost the address. Ma was always losing things, and finding them again. Hadn’t he been helping her find her glasses for about ten years? He walked down to the corner, let two or three street-cars go by. It would take two hours to get home back again—longer if he missed a ferry. When he got there she might not find it. Then it would be too late to come back and find Joan at the shop. He decided to wait outside until she came out. The minute® passed. To think of him standing outside, and she inside! He grew sick with waiting. Well, he could telephone. Ask her to invent some excuse and come out. He took a turn up to the comer. There was a druggist there. He could telephone. His fingers shook so that he could hardly turn the leaves of the book, a penny rolled

one way, and a dime another as he searched for the nickel to drop in the slot. “I want to speak to Miss Hastings, Miss Joan Hastings!” he said, very loud. A feminine voice mumbled something at the other end of the wire. ’He tapped the receiver irritably. “Central, can’t you give me a better connection?” Darn the girl—she’d cut him off. He tried again. “Miss Hastings, please.” The connection was worse this time. He had to shout, and then the girl couldn’t understand him, and her voice was a faint, far-away squeak over a tingling wire. “Miss Hastings—Joan Hastings!” He waited. Ages. Eternities. Suppose she didn't work there at all. Suppose Dolores had invented the name along with the rest of her story! “Yes?” Was that Joan? It might be. “Is

that you, Joan?” he asked hoarsely, i and tapped the phone again, fran- 1 tically. j “I can hardly hear yon,” ber 1 voice came faintly. “Where are ! you?” He almost wrecked the receiver, > with the fierce taps he gave it. j “Joan, is tttis you—Joan, is it?” ] “Yes. Curtis—can’t you hear me ' either?” I Curtis. Curtis. f “This is Bill!” he called desper- ‘ ately. “Bill!” A buzzing sound ’ again—Hie sound of the empty ■ wire. “Operator, you cut me off!" ‘ he shouted. “Number, please? Number?” ' He hung up furiously. Dam the 1 operator, darn the phone company, < dam all telephones— He took up his stand by the window again, to wait. To wait for 1 Joan to come out. A car drew up at the curb. A 1 man jumped out, walked noncha- I lantly into the shop. Bill watched 1 him, thoughtfully. He loathed men 1 who went into women’s shops, but he admired the fellow’s courage ' just the same. 1 Curtis . . . Joan distinctly said 1 Curtis ... oh well, some friend. She • had friends, of course. ... ’ He was musing on that when he > saw her. Her sweet, gold head, her slim, tall body, moving gracefully past him. Her deep eyes, deep and 1 clear and green as sea water. Her ' red lips parted, smiling. Smiling up at someone else. 1 Her fluttering blue gown almost ' touched him. He put out his hand ■ —"Johnnie!” Did he really call her, 1 or was it the cry from his heart, his 1 soul, his whole starved being? She did not hear. She stepped with her delicate 1 high-heeled slippers, into the wait- 1 ing car. The man’s eyes never left 1 hers. He was loving her, worshipping her, as he helped her into the ! car. And Joan put one slender yellowgloved hand over his. “Curtis, I’m so glad you came early!” When the sun had set, and the street lights cast their bright blue- 1 white light into the dark streets, 1 Bill Martin was still walking, aimlessly now, up and down, up and down the deserted shopping district. He did not know three hours had passed. The street lights went out, morn-

ing came. Bill sat down to rest on a bench in a park. He must have walked, aimlessly, all the night. “Got an extra dime, partner?” An old man with a greasy coat collar buttoned up arennd his neck sidled nearer. He had been sleeping at the other end of the bench. Bill gave it, absently. The old man limped across the street to a lunch wagon. You could see him leaning against the counter with a tall mug of coffee and a snail. Bill gut up and followed. The scalding coffee revived him. | He thre w another dime on the coun- j ter. “Set ’em up again!” He grinned at the old man. “And another snail?” the old fellow whined. “Sure.” Then he saw the battered alarm clock on the shelf with the ketchup and canned peaches. Seven o’clock. Seven o’clock, and he way out here, miles from Joan’s shop . . . what time did she go to work? What time did girls start
working in the mornings anyway? Eight o’clock? He pushed the paper napkin and the second snail from him, and looked anxiously up and down for a streetcar. After a long time one came. Un the ride down town he looked at his grubby hands ruefully. Remembered that his collar was soiled, and he needed a shave. He should have gone to a hotel, he had money enough for the best. But he wanted Joan so . . , wanted to take her hand, talk to her, tell her all the silly fears of the night, fears that he had lost her . . . Joan! Eight o’clock. Could he have missed her? He almost ran the last block. No . . . the place was still closed. He leaned in the doorway to wait. Girls passed, neat, trimly dressed girls, hurrying to work. There was j one in a blue suit, with a small dark hat pulled low over her eyes, and a great cluster of waxy gardenias pinned on her coat. She was tall and very slender, like Joan. Now she was near, the scent of 1 the gardenias came to him, poignantly sweet. He looked at her again, because she reminded him of Joan. And then his two hands were out, grasping hers tightly, crushing them. “Johnnie! Johnnie!” “Bill!” And all the color drained from her face, leaving it white and waxy as the flowers she wore. “Bill—l’ve wanted you so! Why didn’t you come? Why didn’t you?” her heart criei but her eyes searched his face, saw the dark circles under his eyes, the stubble on his cheek, the soiled linen, the creases in his well-cut clothes. The wave of tenderness, the great rush of aching gladness that had almost swept her into his arms, shook her so that she had to cling to his hand from very weakness, but she did not speak. She couldn’t because she was afraid. A horror of what she had almost said, almost done, sickened her while she still clung to his hand. And shame came too. “I’ve almost thrown in; self al him again . . . when he never cared . . . not even' enough to write . . . when he can come to me ... like .. . like this . ..” She looked up at him piteously. Her mouth jerked. Oh. why did he come this way? To think of finding him, lounging in a doorway, looking . . . looking . . . (To Be Continued Tomorrow)
