Then. too. a baby can have quite a severe Inflammation of the nose and throat without any noti eable discharge from the nose to put the mother on guard, if this infection gets into the middle ear. aa often happens fever, irritability and. perhaps dirrhea will result. But. unless the ears are examined and the inflammation of the middle ear diacovered. the symptoms may he f aaerihed to teething and the baby will fall to get the treatment it so badly need* 'Another disorder in bnfctes whkh to often neglected baegura the •ether softrrev few is only tenth-

CHAPTER ONE I IN A New York employment i agency for office workers Ruth - ballon, the manager, an attractive i middle-aged woman -inng a ’ navy sheer frock, saw the next i young hopeful in quest ot a job ' step from the doorway tn’o her office. 'You sent for me.” Kit Marshall said. "Yea Come in. my dear. Sit 1 down. 1 think 1 nave something 1 for you." 1 She took a deep bre-.th. It was no ordinary job she had in mind i for this young girl who had, Ruth ballon had bm thinking, the new kind of beauty. Each day now lor many years she saw an unceasing parade ot young faces, but few had scratched the surface of b- r consciousness. But the Marshall girl had a tall slim figure that moved with natural grace, soft chestnut hair, healthy coloring. and a wide red mouth with large and perfect teeth. It did not matter what a girl like that wore. She would be noticed anyway. Today she had on a cool green frock and a green felt hat with a brim over the red-brown hair. Ruth Fallon liked her and liked to look at her. She looked fresh and young and normal sitting in her office this warm June day. You want to do something for a girl like that, she thought. You don't want to see her lost and wasted. She looks terribly eager ami. yes. a little desperate. Ruth Fallon folded capable hands on the des! and smiled. She bad to be. somehow, less professlonal with this girl. The materrtll in me. she wondered? Oh. wet, I can't help It. I'm not aa hard aa 1 should be after all the years at thia job. w She said, "I have a position for you but it requires rather a lengthy explanation before I send you out to It You haven't told me a great deal shout yourself except that you did secretarial work in Washington before coming to New York three months ago. 1 have checked your reference with the attorney for whom you worked and he wasn't an .lous to lose you. 1 have also checked your ‘ character references and everything’ is In fine order there . . ." Three months >f job* hunting. she thought No wonder the child looked desperate. And yet there was something else that didn’t have to do with being broke and alone . . . an old hurt that lay behind those incredibly clear blue eyes. Kit said. Tm glad. Mimi Fallon." This waiting was terrible. If only she could beg, “Tell me where the job is and bow much It pays and let me go. let me go. please." Th-- older woman smiled again.

rience. 1 may be doing a very unfair, unwise thing sending you out to tins job. On the other band, it has immense possibilities, if you can manage it It can be the sort of job a girl dreams about. But to get to the point . . . Miss Tracy Field wants a socjU secretary. You've beard of her, ot course." Kit's eyes quickened. Tracy Field, rich and famous ar* . . . the word “notorious" skipped across her mind though she didn't suppose that getting your picture in papers and magazines necessarily mrue. you notorious. Tracy Field was a fair girl with a determined face, a girt who had everything a.id who had been “news" since her parents' death had made her one of the great hei-eases in the land. Aunt Chris who read everything once had said, “You know, Kit, reading about rich people makes you think of what they've done to make the world smaller. One day you see they're in New York and the next they’re tn Callfomir hobnobbing with the movie stars." » Tracy Field was one of thos- people. Whether tn ermine at an opening or in overalls on an Arizona ranch, she was alway- Tracy Field who made you wonder what sort ot person she really wa* "Yes. I've heard of he: but Ruth Fallon laughed quietly. "Yes. there are a good many 'huts' in a thing of this sort. A good deal too many. She's a difficult person to work for in the first place. She's popular and unpredictable. You must be prepared to cope with anything. The jdb will take a great deal of patience." She shook her head. "It seems a little fantastic. I've sent her older, experienced, thoroughly capable women who haven’t worked out at aIL You're a chance, my dear. You're my wild guess." Kit looked anxiou* "But what do I do? 1 wasn’t trained . . ." Ruth Fallofi answered seriously, "You do what she tells you. Your duties will vary from handling her correspondence and appointments and phone calls to reminding her that she should get more sleep Frankly, the one time I met her I liked her. She doesn't appear spoiled. You have none of the feeling of the poor-Httle-rich-glri. She had a fine sensible mother who tried to shield her, to make her life normal Mias Field is a person of good taste in he.- horn- and in her clothe* Try to remember that it la almost impcasl'ile for any young person eo much in the spotlight to live a completely normal life. Th y have an exaggerated opinion of their importance, an arrogance, a sense at power that is perfectly human. 1 suppose. Frankly, your job will bo to do the things that neither her maid nor tar housekeeper can do. She entertains a great deal at cc-irse

She 'a an excellent person, an older woman, who has been in the family for years and who knows her jc.o thoroughly. Well, what do you think?" "1 don't think I know enough. 1 shouldn't want to fall." "Yea, 1 know. But 1 wonder If what seems to be the proper training is. in this particular case, the right thing. My other attempts to please her have failed. The experienced people I sent her were accustomed to routine. You can't expect routine tn such a job. Besides, she travels -i great deal and she'd expect you to go 'ith her. It pays quite well ... a hundred and sixty dollars a month and your board. You'll live there, of course. She’s in her Connecticut house this summer. After that, 1 don't know . . A hundred and sixty dollars a month . . . She felt rich. Kit thought It seemed a fortune when you nad just broken your last twenty dollar bill to pay for a twenty-five cent breakfast She wouldn't have to go back home now and—and face them. For that she had prayed for three months—not to be forced to go back and face the people who had heard what Agne had shouted at her that night In a Washington night club. Even the thought of it still colored her face and tightened her nerve* But for Aunt Chris xvhi had understood that she must go away, she didn't care where this job with Tracy Field took her. The farther the better to escape Into an anonymity eo tha*. she would not be reminded again. "Are you willing to try It?" Kit said tn her warm young voice, "If you're willing to send me. I'm willing to try. I'U do my best" "I know you will.” Ruth Fallon smiled and thought. I hope she doesn't fall in love with any of Tracy's various men. And maybe it was a broken-up love affair that makes her look hurt even when she's smiling. But why should a love affair with h-r break up? A man would want her for keep* She said. "Another detail. The chauffeur win pick you up tomorrow afternoon. That doesn't leave you much time ’ "There's nothing to keep me here. I'U be ready." "Good. Well , . - Rising, aha held out her hand.
