About me?” His cheeks were j red with discomfort, and she went on, teasing: “You think I shouldn’t pass the time of day with an old love like yourself, Timmy?’’ He glanced at her pleadingly. And 'suddenly she said: “Why didn’t you come to my housewarming? Why did you all walk out on me, Timmy? Did you -know that not one of the old crowd responded? You all gave me the grand snub.” Timmy took a hot, chugging breath, “I wonder why you're talking like this, Sandy? It’s not like you to stall.” She was feverishly excited. A dry hottness burned her mouth. “Stall? What do you ni£an by that? None of you came.” “None of us was invited." “I wrote the invitations myself. I mailed them myself.” • • • mIMMY looked up at the hills, then down at Sandy’s flushed distracted face. “Oh, why are you bothering about It now, Sandy? I didn’t care. Os course, I wouldn’t have gone away. Gee, it’s goo<f to see you again. Did you hear about Luple Costa?" She would not be evaded. She said in a low, impetuous tone: "Didn't you get- a note from me. Timmy?” “Yes —everyone got those notes.” "None of you came. Why?” “They all knew about the other invitations.” "Is that the only reason? Please tell me, Timmy—please! I was terribly hurt about It. You surely ought to be friend enough to tell me.” She kept on urgently. she made him stop the car, slipped her hand over his: “Timmy—please, I. must know this—l must.” * When she said this, her dark, storming eyes, beseeching his, Timmy gulped. “Gee. Sandy, you make It hard for a fellow!” She smiled at him winningly: “Like old times, Timmy dear? Now tell me—tell me!”

I’ve got a sure enough Invito from Sandy.” Heinle said Murillo then gave him the dirtiest look. “There must bo some mistake!” turned on his heel and walked o lt. Heinle was so incensed that he told everybody. Then they all knew .why their came so late and why they were written and the others engraved. They knew they weren't wanted. • • • SELLING this Timmy’s face took on a drawn, anxlouß look. He covered Sandy’s hand with a troubled: "We knew. We just didn’t want to make it hard for you. Say—Sandy—don't look so—nobody cared.” "I cared, Timmy. I cared a great deal. I invited you. You should have come. You see—why—it's just that Ben’s different. He—well he didn’t mean a thing by that. He was just surprised.” She tried to excuse him. Her lips trembled pitifully. Timmy said: “Don’t Sandy—please don't feel like this.” But she went on, relentless: “I suppose Heinle told you about that dinner at Tahos?” “Yes. Heinie felt awful about that. He was gfraid you- ran away on account of it.” “Ran away? Oh, Timmy Timmy, “Ran away? Oh, Timmy! Timmy, who said I ran away?" “Oh, 1 don't know—l thought—“No—No! Tell me, do you all kROw that, too?" “Yes—some one saw you get off the train alone. There was talk. They said you were going to sue for a divorce." Their eyes were fastened on each other’s face. Suddenly Sandy’s became calm, a smile transfigured the troubled mouth. She looked off at the mountains, black under the crystalline sky. And she looked back with a'serene happiness at Timmy. "That's all past, Tlmiriy. Don’t be sorry fer me.

I was unhappy at first—terribly so. I’m not now. I can’t tell you Just how it la—bnt I wouldn’t give up things I’ve got—not for the world. Oh, I mean It! I really, really do!” She laughed. “And I see Ben in a differeent light now. He’s Just a bit hard to understand—that’s all. Why he'd he despbndent if he thought he'd offended Heinie.” Timmy was abashed by this—touched because he was so fond of Sandy; shamed, because she lied for him. Bdf he said gallantly: “Oh, sure, he’s a good fellow. You can’t expect a man to marry a girl’s family and friends and cast-off lovers, can you? Perhaps I better ybe taking you home?” “Time was when he was in no hurry to land me home! Very well!" She settled low In the seat, burning with anxiety as they neared the house. She said once; "Oh, Timmy, let me out here. You’re in a hurry, I know, I’ve spoilt your whole afternoon. Perhaps you were rushing to some fond, tryst when I stopped you? I’m rested now—l can easily walk the rest of the way.” "I'll drive you home. You know I’d do a good many things for you, Sandy. Don’t you know that?” She nodded—smiled—talked gaily. The blood raced and pounded In her ears. She was frightened. She was praying. She was weak with nervousness. She didn’t care abouL herself, but if he should lnsult| Timmy— Almost in tears she demanded of herself: “Stop shaking! What's tho matter with you! What can he do! I couldn't walk another step! Let, him try anything! Just lot him try!” She didn’t move from her placq as Timmy stopped the car. Sho was unable to move. Her alarm communicated itself to him. Ho asked; “Shall I help you out, ole dear?” “Oh course!” He was Just taking her elbow. She shut her eyes. Murillo was standing on the porch. And now he was coming toward them—rushing. He had hold of her arm, grinding the fingers into her flesh. (To Be Continued.)
