no congenial companion? No **nc t.> love, to have fun with? Tarry Griggs waa waiting on th* sidewalk. At sight of her, he came forward eagerly. Despite the shabby overcoat, and th* hat that need* *1 cleaning and reblocking, there wa* an air ab* ut Tarleton. A certain assurance ll* j held his head high. Fate might force him into queer way* us grubj bing and rooting for money thricei accursed money! playing up to ali I manner of pe<'pl<- for their account* as his firm demanded of him but Moira told herself hr wa* always * gentleman in spit* of it.

A protective tenderne** w*-!l*-d up in Moira at sight of him. hi* young eagerm ss. so that her own physical and mental fatigue faded in th* far*- of his bitter expencnc* She bowed good night to Mrs.' Rules. But the customer st.»*d stock still, her beautifully mad*- up eyes with the pencilled elongation* at th- corners smiling at Tarry. No tell-tale i signs of crows' feet showed thro ~1 the little veil that reached t<> th* tip of the nose that Mows ha l so carefully powdered. The mouth with its Cupid's bow smile too. It D-. 2.. •! dsK-ptively beautiful. Why, in lhe lamplight of the street, her mink eoat huddled about her throat, her hat at Moira’s anp!*-. there was *omething almost girlish * about Mr*. Rules! "I ought to be pleased about it!" thought Moir* swiftly. "I've been week* working <>n her!” But she fell atrangily dis quieted. For why was Tarry look ing at her with the same sort of \ warm and shiny look that he was . wont to turn on her herself? Mrs. Rule* spoke. Even her voice seemed lilting, and years younger "I’d like to meet your friend, Miss Moira." Tarry shook the small <1 ived hand that peeped from the envelop ing mink. Mrs. Rules invited them to come to her home for a cocktail. Ta rry gave Moira no ti ■ fuse. .Moira had told him about this woman. One must be an opportunist when neceMity drove. i "That's mighty kind <>f you, MrRules. Nothing I'd like better! la-t's get a tavi." H. hailed one, to Moira’s dismay. She kn«-w the rocky state of his finances. But there wa« nothing to do but grt into it with as good a grace as possible. Tarry was sensitive. Immensely ti uchy in his voung pride. A world that should have been kind to tom had . little need of his services "My sort come at a nteke! a dozen," hr had told Moira bitterly. And ever since, she had been careful not to off* nd him with hint-, on economy. Mrs. Rules lived in the smart Sutton Place sector of town. The tati swung east. The traffic light* stopped them at the Park Avenue intersection. There was an endo ss stream of car* "Going to their cocktail parties! My. don't aome people have one grand whirl!" A child-like envy not | without its poignancy lay iq Mrs i Rules' Middle-West accents. Tarry said quickly. "You alao.of course. She had insisted that the three of them ait on the one aide It was a* I though she wanted, unconsciously, a ■ld aga,*’-' that me ij that had enveloped her sc* long Now she throat closer Against Tarry “Me?
