CHAPTER XX A« Rodney Stone looked round the room that was so inn>«mUy festive, fh< fait recompensed for the money and the hours she’d spent in sewing, planning, cooking. arranging this setting and this meal. After all, if Tarry had let her down, it was heartening to know that her effe its were not lost. Others could enjoy her company, her good cheer. Someone as important in the scheme of things as Tarry seemed more than content to be with her tonight. It was amazing how quickly she had recovered. She brought the tomato bisque to the table in two little terra-cotta bowls. Croutons floated in the soup that was beautifully flavored Rodney Stone partook of it with gusto. "You made Uns yourself?" as he put his spoon down. "Yes, though it* foundation did come out of a can, I added a dash of ’t’other, this and that. My special secret. Have some more? There's plenty." He insisted on bringing it himself. this time. It seemed he knew a food deal about cooking. In college days he'd tried his hand at things out of a chafing dish, when he was hungry burning the midnight oil, or when some of the otht-r fellows dropped in at his rooms for a snack. He’d e<*>ked on fishing trips, on climbing expeditions both at h-np and abroad Rising at dawn for duck-hunting and other sports made a fellow mighty hungry. Sailing was what first started him cooking, he told her. He made her laugh with some of his experiences. She said: "I'd no idea you were so out-doorish! 1 love the out-doors too. I once sp«nt a week on an old wherry on the Schuylkill River with mv father. About the only hobby beyond books he's ever had is Mailing. But even there he was terri-' bly al-ent-minded. He ran us into th- bank several times. We'd al! I sorts of amusing mishaps. I did I th- cooking and cleaning, and one- ' when I was resting face down on the four-inch strip of deck at thwherry's side, father, dreaming of hi- next scientific lecture or some treatise h- was planning, ran us so clew- along the bank that before I knew what hanj>ened, a bush had eaught me by the hair t had long! hair then and I was dragged <>fll the boat and left suspended!" “Like Absalom in the Bible story,” said Rodney Stone, and they both laughed. “The hair gn-w agait. I note You have nry pretty hair, if you’ll excuse my saying so. Mi s Moira." bh<- was about to remark that she didn't bother much about it nowadays, being m-ich in the position of the Loy in the confectioner's shop Ft.e was sick of hairdressing ami worrying abodt the newest coiffures and styles. Hut she thought brtter of turning the conversation tn a topic that would inevitably had to M Rules, his convalescent patient. When the evening that was now so festive was roaring a close, perhap- -he would inquire al»out her and her progress, as was fitting. Bi t< v. don't bring the n-flollcction of m-ar-tragedy to shadow their holiday spirit. “Another time.” she went on quickly, smiling reminjscently, “I'd wash'd my father's underclothes, and set them carefully to dry on the lowemi mast. N«*t morning- a gaia Sunday—l noticed every boatload that went by were laughing and pointing at us. I couldn’t think why until 1 went to the end of the aterr.. There on the top of our mast, like tanners, waved the underwear. It was really very comical!" He grinned "You're devoted to your father, aren't you? I'd like to meet him some time."

“He'd love that. His life is very I quiet. He's really a moat diatinc'i -hrd scholar, even though ha's never made much money, though , with his brains ha eould have been rich if he'd wanted to.” she enthused. "He has a betu-r kind of hehness. r That of the mind. And he's rich in i haling such a loyal daughter, 1 think." That pleased her. He had finished his tomato bisque. ■ She rose. "Now for the p»#ce-de-re-iittanee. If those partridges are j overcooked. I’ll hide my head in ' confusion.” He laughed, and made as though • | to rise and help too. She waved him > back. “Thia is my big moment!" "Careful of that beautiful drees! Don’t get it spattered.” | "I'll put on an apron." The lilac one with the organdy frills. He thought she made the prettiest picture as, face flushed with eagerness, curls rumpled round her heart-shaped face, she returned with his partridges on a big platter. She had poured bread sauce on them and a sprinkling of brown bread crumbs, and a garnishing of parsley. Small roast potatoes were placed round the edge. "Would you mind carving? I’m such a duffer at it,” as he jumped up to assist her with the big dish. He beamed. He sniffed the succulent odor of salt pork and game. “A Lucullan faMt--1 won't be trite and add. served by a goddess, but I mean it. I'm as hungry as a hunter." They both sat down. He made- a gny flourish with the carving knife that she'd honed to razor sharpness, eut into the breast of one bird with a swift stroke. “The professional touch!” she laughed. “You would!" She poured some old Madeira in\o his wine glass, filled her own He passed her her plate. She laughed at the sire of the helping. She said- “L'nltke you. 1 haven’t ' been out violently exercising for the past couple of days!” "But I like a girl who eats hearti ily. My wife -"—he paused. He ' dr< w his brows together, knife sus--1 pended in mid-air, calculating the exact spot for the nest incision. “Y<>ur tci/cf" she repeated, startled. "My wife*—"- he made a neat plunge, >liung the meat, scooping i out stuffing with a turn »f the wrist, 1 and putting it on his plate. |“l— I had no idea you were married, Dr Stone! This is- quite a (surprise!” She was dashed, dtsconi certed. amazed. To be entertaining a married man alone in her apartment was something she had never i-x|>ect«"d to do. Why had he sent her the gift of partridges if he were married? YY hy had he calkd her up and asked her to dine with him? Why had he paid her compliments thi* evening? It didn't make sense! Or did it? Was he, the brilliant, serious young surgeon, a bit of a philanderer under his quiet man- . ner? "My wife—" his eyes twinkled at her over the little fern in the center of the table -“if ever I have one, must have a fine appetite for roast partridge. That's what I meant." “Why,"—she shook out a little nervous laugh -"1 confess for a moment I was—surprised!” “Meaning you’re not the kind of girl to encourage visitors without I their wives'" he suggested. “Os course I wouldn't!” “And i w long have you been in i New York?” He was looking at her kindly, but quizzically. "It isn't how long I’ve been any- . where, it's one's principles. Surely ■ one must have principles?” “Right. Hurrah?” “Heasc don't laugh at me. Dr. Stone. Life isn't so easy for a girl on her own. Wo do get lonesome.” . “You bet you <u. I mean I rei spot you for that. Ko girl as pretty as you are m -d evsv be iom aorue."

He had an impulse to come dashing round the table and take her tn hts arms. Cave-man stuff. He was amazed at hia sudden surge of feeling. He said, to case the tensKgi: “What a cute little place this is! So cosy and homelike! You’ll let mo eumr again, won't you?” “Os course.” “I’m not much of a hand at burning up the town, but perhaps one evening we might dine early and go to a good show?” "That would be lovely." “But not as nie«> as this.” he amended, to his own aurprioe. “Peace. Firelight Domesticity. “And don’t fonpd—a good dinner! Or am I flattering myself?" "I’m crazy about yoor eooktng I’ve gorged shamelessly, but may I have another helping of stuffed tomato, and a bit more of your salad, please?" "Chef’s Specialty. My own invention. Go ahead.” “I wfll. thanks" She was happy. Tarry's defection was pushed to the back of her mind. A charming man was before her, enjoying ber company to the utmost, and showing that he did. Heartily enjoying, too, her cooking, and her pretty little home. “I've fairly wrecked the partridges!" as he helped himself to dark meat and stuffing for the third time “Nothing eould delight a eook more, but please keep a little corner for dessert. And do have some more wine." She declined more for herself. Urged him to replenish his glass. "I’m not much of a hand for Scotch or coektails," he confessed to her, “but after a stiff day. a glaas of the right wine at dinner relaxes me. This is excellent Madeira.” The English tnfle was set upon the table when the main course was removed. He ate sparingly of Tarry's favorite, but went in a big way for the more simple fare of crackers and cheese "Will you have coffee now?" she asked. “Please. Well clear the table and push it back Into its corner -I'm sure it goes into that corner over there, behind the chrysanthemums -and then we’ll sit on the divan snd have our coffee in front of your nice fire 1 love log fires. They make me think of ships, incongruously I went to Chink once, as medical officer on a cargo boat. Just after my graduation, that was.” “Travel? How lovely! I'd give anything to travel. Weren’t you lucky’” “Enthusiastic child!" "What’s life without having something to look forward to? Though." she amended, sighing, “it doesn't look as though I should ever have the opportunity of swing the far places of the world!” “Don’t be too sure. I’ve found that if a person wants anything hard enough, life gradually shapes itself in that direction," he told her. "I'd like to believe that. But if one hasn't any money, unless one go,» as a stowaway, it seems pretty hopebss. And even a stowaway doesn’t see much." They bo‘h laughed at that. They were gay. The table was pushed into its corner. The divan pulled forward in front of the fire. It had a wooden bacE to it. Thera wero sufficient cushions, including tbe newly-cov-ered ones, to make it seem laxurious. She brought a pot of coffee, sugar bowl, eream jug and two demi taaaes in a small set of bneutiful design. He drew the tiny coffoetalile forward, took the tray from her hands and set it down. "This certainly is comfort," as ha leaned ba<k, eup in hand. (To be continued) t awwißM M Mat Ortv’te w gue rwura sraeas* tw
