ARDETH CARROLL works in a shop and is being wooed by Neil Burke. Her home life is far from peasant. She lives with an aunt and a snooping girl cousin. Rifling with Neil, Ardeth is thrilled by the flattering gate of handsome Ken Gleason, accompanying the wealthy Cecile Parker. He Is Ardeth's idol, Jeanette Parker offers Ardeth a position in her new shop. Ardeth accepts, hoping to meet Ken.

CHAPTER V. zz'wyElL!” Ardeth cried sharply. “You're hurt- ’ ing me!” He relaxed his grip but did not free het. “What's this Bet’s been telling me?” he got out between his teeth. “That you’ve quit the store—that you’re going in with that society snob—” “Os course Bet would talk about my business!” Ardeth answered coldly. “It’s my own affair if I try to better my position—” “Better your position—hah I” His tone was bitter. “Getting in with the lousy rich! Letting them make a fool of you—” The slender body in his clasp became convulsed. “Let me go! You have no right to do this, Neil: You’re jealous—that’s what's the matter! If a man doesn't wear a flannel shirt and dirty overalls you think he’s no good—” “Jealous! Yes—l am! I’m jealous of you —you've got me crazy about you! And don’t you suppose I see what’s going on? You’re changing—l’m not good enough for you any more. I’m not a rah-rah boy with sleek hair who goes horseback riding in the park—” “Ah! 1 thought that was the troublel” She had stopped struggling. She was very stiff and quiet He dropped his arms heavily to his sides and she could feel his wretched eyes upon her through the thick light. Such a slight young thing she | was to set his pulses hammering like this. To fill him with this passion of desire . . . “God ... I wish I could hate you!” he said, huskily. I’d rather hate you than to be »o erazy about you. I’m miserable » hen I'm away from you—and w.dn I see you—l’m worse ”

“Oh, Neil—” she put a gentle htnd on his arm. “Can’t we ever meet any more without quarrel.ng? We never used to be like this ” He caught at her hand. “It’s because I'm wild about you. Ardeth. Sometimes at night I can't sleep thinking about you. You love me, don't you? Let’s get married —now. This week. I grot a raise last month and we can manage fine. We can take that flat above Bill Henderson. Honey — please ’’ She shoved him away almost wildly. “No, Neil! Oh—can’t you see? Get married and—and live like —like that!” In the dark her hand flung at the dark stairway. •’A flat ... A roast every Sunday, so it will last utrtil Tuesday. Wonaering if we Can manage a show and still pay the instalments on the furniture. And after a while —we’d be quarreling like Aunt Stel. They all do ” “If you loved me you wouldn’t stop to pick cm those things,” he said, hetly. “Yon’rc just making them an exc u s e—— ’’ Then, warned by her quick motion toward the stairs, “Oh, all rightlet’s forget it for now-. We’re both on edge, I guess. Will you come on down after dinner? Granny misses you, Ardeth. She was asking about you just now.” She promised with secret reluctance. The atmosphere of the Burke flat was, if anything, more depressing than that of the Harrison. Upstairs Bet’s spite — Fan and Paul’s rriarreling — Aunt Stel’s

scolding—these at least provided vitality, a sort of combative life. But down here there was quiet —sullen quiet. Here was bitterness and defeat. When she came down after dinner Mr. Burke had already left for one of hts radical meetings. Neil sat with his grandmother in the kitchen. The electric droplight had been turned off. Granny had taken a lid from the top of the coal stove and tongues of flame played about the opening, filling the room with alternate bursts of light and shadow. It was the nearest Granny could come to the peat fires of her youth. In childhood, Ardeth had run ir. here often after school, rather than go upstairs and face Aunt Stel’s nagging. She and Neil had popped corn over the stove while they listened to the old woman’s rambling tales—a weird mixture of folklore and superstitions which Granny more than half believed herself. But now, as though she viewed it for the first time, she was aware of the disorder, of the hopeless poverty of it all. The cluttered sink board; musty smell of cooking. The greasy feel of the oilcloth on the table. She tried not to think of thef

things as she removed a pan and a cup from a chair and gingerly seated herself upon it. Sw-athed in a gray shawl, Granny blinked up at her like a lizard in the sun. “There, now, dearie, I knew you’d be down! Don’t you be grievin’, I was tel’in’ the lad here, our pretty girl hasn’t forgot us for all she’s teamin’ such fine ways an’ wears such fine clothes. She knows where she belongs, that one, 1 told him — don’t trouble your heart.’’ Sudden hot anger nearly suffocated Ardeth. So afraid she would get away—that she would rise above them! Wanting to hold her back here in the ugliness and the gt’eyness— She forced a little laugh. She tried to turn the conversation. Don’t get angry . . . poor Neil—he couldn’t help ugly bare flat. Poor Granny, so old—how could she keep it tidy? But there was a sort of angry dismay in her heart. Why did Neil sit there eating her up with his somber eyes? Why did Granny reach over and smooth her skirt with that possessive air? She

visiting Mrs- Mary Lewellen and daughter Marguerite, and other friends. Glen Stucky and Miss Ruth Bahner spent Sunday in the southern part of the state. Mrs. Elizabeth Stanley and Mrs. Helen Detchty and son Donald ot Decatur visited Mrs, Raymond Crist and family Monday afternoon.

Miss Drucilla Bulkhead of Indianapolis spent the w'e't-end with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Loren

wanted to cry that they took too much for granted! Why should they think she was going to marry Neil? She’d only been a youngster when she’d given him that absurd promise. She’d known no better —they shouldn't hold her to it! Marry Neil. ... Be stuck here forever in the gray poverty? Oh, surely life held more for her than this! Or else, why did the golden flame kindle within her at the glance of Ken Gleason’s eye? Ken. . . . Just the thought of him could send a tingling warmth through her heart. And that was absurd, she told herself later, as she lay in her own dark room beside the heavily breathing Bet. Absurd that she should be thinking like this of a man to whom she had never spoken. No, she had never spoken with her lins . . but that long meeting ot their eyes . . . that strange hot leap of her own heart, which had said he was no stranger. Lying there, hands pressed hard over her pounding heart, she had the strange conviction once more that she was in the grasp of fate. That she was being hurried along at a breathless pace. Jeanette’s shop was most appropriately named “The Caprice.” It was probably the city’s smallest store —-a narrow sliver of space sandwiched in between a fashionable milliner on one side and a smart fur store on the other. The window eould be dressed with but one exhibit at a time—an

exaggerated fan of flame colored ostrich feathers—or an exquisite cloisonne vase. Once it was a golden-yellow mandarin coat, flung with elegant carelessness over a teakwood chair — Jeanette had brought that back on her last trip to the Orient. And once there was nothing in the window save a train of ivory elephants, diminishing in size as they marched solemnly along a strip of black satin. Ardeth loved the place—loved it with perhaps more of possessive tenderness than did Jeanette. The shop proved the sensation Jeanette had desired. It was discussed over the tea tables of Pacific Avenue. “Have you seen the place Jeanette Parker has opened? My dear, they say it’s actually good! You must go” Jeanette was able to pose to her heart’s content. “Really one should get more out of life than bridge and golf, don't you think?” she would ask brightly. “So many of the titled Englishwomen are going in for trade, you know (To Be Continued Tomorrow) Copyright.
