Caroline laughed, but there was a new note underlying the sound. "When I’ve got it,” she said, “you ean put it over.” “Fine,” he exclaimed, “and now that we're on the road to riches let's get back to work.” Caroline found th* afternoon’s work less monotonous than during the morning. Her mind was scarcely at all on the things her hands were doing. There was Howard to think about. She tried not to think of him. tried resolutely to put him out of her mind and concentrate on th* exciting idea that had come to her, an idea born of her determination not to stay where Fate, with the help of the Dunsworths, had placed her. Ths contrast of Howard’s position with her own as she had stood watching her employer’s son drive up in swaggering style t" an entrance that she was no longer permitted to use had dulled her sense of sociological superiority and left her with a very human feeling 1 of resentment. It was truly incentive enough to arouse every atom of Rutledge stubbornness in her character. People were either laughing at her or pitying her. she supposed. She had been above caring much about that, but Howard’s nonchalant attitude made it all a very bitterly real thought to her now. If Howard had stood by—nothing else would have mattered half so much. His complete indifference was too much. Ami I how much sweeter it would be to I have the last laugh if she earned i it herself! From that day on she applied herself with the drive of a consuming desire to reach the goal she had set for herself. At work in the factory she could de nothing but think, but her thoughts obsessed her; new ideas, new possibilities came to her then. At night, in the class room laboratory and at home, she worked I them out in tests and experiments. Her mother complained that she t was wasting herself, taxing her endurance to excess, but Caroline j never stopped long enough to find ■ out if rhe was tired. She, in turn, urged her mother [ to think of herself, to find some interest in life. She suggested pupils for music. It was Philip who vetoed this, giving as a reason his wife's delicate health. The truth was that he had no money to buy, or even to rent, a piano. Caroline made other suggestions, but for one reason or another all were rejected. She was sorry she had decorated the house so entirely before taking up her studies at the U. Had she left the house in its original state, she told herself, her mother might have been driven to undertake the work herself, with Philip wielding the paint brush. It had been a mistake, she de--1 eided. to assume all the burden of beautifying their home. It had paralyzed her parents’ initiative in »he matter. Perhaps it was also a mistake to continue her general supervision of the household. Planning the week’s menus and going to market on Saturday afternoons, doling the hundred and one things on Sunday that Mrs. Wade had not attended to. She gave it up. and on the first Saturday that Alva did the marketing the evening was spent in nurs- , ing her back from the verge of a nervous collapse. And on Sunday they roasted a chicken, only to disI

Mrs. Wade did her work well and 1 kept the house clean, but somehow | Alva was not equal to the task ot keeping it tidy. Papers, magazines, 1 books, lay about where they were put down. Tall, empty glasses were | left by Philip anywhere, making rings on the table tops. Alva stayed late upstairs, the eurta'.ns v.ere not raised, the rooms were not cooled.
and the days were growing hotter. The supplies of the house were never properly stocked; there was always something that had been forgotten. ’ Caroline observed after a while that her mother was showing signs of neglect about her person. Each Sunday morning until Alva had agreed to do it herself Caroline had given her a shampoo and a finger wave. The glorious auburn hair now looked dark and stringy. The arched eyebrows were not so finely shaped and the delicate white skin had begun to take on a dull To see her lovely mother fading made ' Caroline wretched. "You must exercise,” she scolded, but having no time to see that Alva did it things went on as they were. Alva continued to seek seclusion in her room, or on the screened porch where she repulsed the efforts of her neighbors to make friendly overtures. More, and more fr«ouently she spent the entire day and evening in lounging pajamas, reading, brooding. (To Be Continued) ' Coeyrlfhl Bulh I><W * T Grovet OUtrlMtrt W Vmiww W-x U-w. ’“»•

Malcolm saw that Carolines hands trembled as »ho lifted the drink to her lips, but after a bit she declared herself steady enough to be safe on the motorcycle and he gave in to her wish to start for home. The rush of air against their faces was gratefully cooling and when it had dried their moist, sticky garments so that they no longer clung to their overheated bodies it brought them a blessed relief. When Caroline reached her home she went straight to her room. As she opened the door, a wave of confined air surged over her like a smothering blanket. The night before she had worked j long after midnight in a crude laboratory she had erected in the basement —a laboratory that had cost her the jade bracelet —rare old Chinese jade—that alone of her precious possessions had been salvaged from the Rutledge financial ruin. That morning she had overslept, had hurried away to work, without stopping to put the day time screen in her window which at night she took out for the sake of more air The sun was high when she awoke

The l wo?ds had beat a fiendish chorus in her brain frdm the moment Malcolm had told her- u " kn °*‘ n K what it would mean to her—that this was Howard’s wedding day. I She threw open the hall door to I the kitchen in almost a panic ol dread. Mrs, Wade was not there. It was Alva who stood before the gas range, lighting the burner under the tea kettle. Alva turned, and Caroline I out: “Mother, what ha* happened. for Alva’s eyes were red with weep- ■ ing and her lips trembled with the nervous effort she was m» kln ß to l control her emotions 'Where is > Jenny?” Caroline added.
“Your father let her go. “But why . . the girl faltered, did not go on. “He say* there * no money to pay her,” Mrs. Rutledge explained bitteHv “But Caroline’s brain was whirling with the dire possibilities her mother’s words suggested. “I know we cant get alonff without her, but he says we must, Alva went on. “W ere to have her for the laundry, that s all. There was a stool by the sink. Carolin* sat on it, silent. After a moment Alva said: Do you mind having just a salad and tea for dinner?” . “No,” Caroline said in a dull tired tone, “I’ll help you.” She got up and put a salad bowl ir the refrigerator to chill and plate: with it. "Where is father? sh<

Caroline did not seem to near. n She went on working, preparing the lettuce, putting it on the ice in a wet j. cloth, to crisp. Then she went up- s ! stairs for a shower. When she . came down, clad in cool cotton I r lounging pajamas, she looked at her I y mother with a question in her eyes. ]. I Alva was nervous, upset, but obI viously struggling to be calm. I Why? Plainly she had given way before Caroline came. And she had been increasingly querulous j for weeks. It was unnatural for her to say so little about losing Mrs. Wade; to be, all at once, more con- . siderate of others than of herself. Suddenly an explanation flashed across Caroline’s mind. She turned back from the door to the ■ porch. "Have you heard?” she . asked quietly, "that Howard is married?” ■ Alva was slicing a lemon. The 1 knife slipped and she cut her finger. - Caroline took a snowy handkerchief 1 from a pocket in her pajamas and tied it up. i Caroline's eyes were averted - when she said: “You couldn’t keep - it from me forever, you know, t darling.” 1- Alva was astonished that she said i- it so quietly, not realizing for the d moment that wounds in the heart 1. may be hidden from the eyes. She t, talked, now, more freely than she it would had she known how each n word made the wound more jagged, le the pain so hard to bear that Caror. line wondered how long she could e, endure it in silence.
