CHAPTER L. Deke Comes Home The morning after the Daring reunion Joyce and her mother started out to find a home for the family. There was an air of quiet happiness about her father and mother that pleased Joyce, even while it made her own longing for Deke more keen than ever. "Find us a home, lass,” John Daring said, kissing her good-by, as he went to his work. "Find us a home, and we'll make it up to you, all that you’ve lost through our foolishness,” and he looked fondly at his wife. Agnes Daring looked years younger. Hope and love were enthroned in her face. She might well have been Joy’s sister this morning as they started out toward the railroad station to take a commuters’ train into Connecticut. When they were on the train she •at looking raptly out of the window. "Would you have believed that your father could change so?” she asked Joyce. Joyce shook her head. “I’m glad,” Bhe said, pressing her mother’s band. "When I first knew him he was tall and handsome. I remember how my heart used to beat when he came to see me. But as he grew older and our struggle to make a living embittered him he lost all the good nature he once had. He did have to Work so hard, Joyce. We were too tired to find the best in each other. And then when he was so blind to my desires for pretty things I almost came to hate him. I truly believed last spring—it is nearly a year, Isn’t it? —that it was best for tis to break up our home.” “In a way it has been a good thing” Joyce said slowly. "Look at the change in father.” "But you are paying a terrible price for our happiness, Joyce,” said Agnes* Daring humbly. “John, your father, said last night that there was a living, shouting proof that the sins of the fathers and the mothers, too, are visited on the Jieads of the children.” • Joyce moved nervously in her Seat. “We mustn’t look back,” sho said. “Life is changed for all of us. Let’s look forward and be happy.” “We want you to be happy,” said Agnes Daring. P'or a week Joyce was almost happy. On the second day of their search they found the house they Wanted, in a little town an hour’s ride from New York. It was anew house and Agnes Daring's old housekeeping instincts revived as she inspected the plumbing, looked into the fruit cellar, and exclaimed over the washable wall paper. Judge Perkins had given Joyce a certified check for twenty thousand dollars and she opened a checking • account on a New York bank with it. It was a slightly astonished and very respectful real estate agent, who took Joy's check for nine thousand dollars to buy the ;iew house. “We’ll use the other thousand for furniture,” Joyce decided. “When we go back to Cleveland we’ll send the old pieces of furniture that you

and father love, here to the new house. But for the present I’d like to keep my apartment there open.” Judge Perkins had the address of the hotel where they were tsaying and each night Joyce looked hopefully for word from Deke. There was nothing, not even a letter written before the scandal had occurred, and forwarded. "I guess he really doesn’t care any more,” she thought despondently at the end of the week. The new furniture was moved in, and on the Sunday after coming to New York Joyce and her mother were at breakfast with John Daring, in their own home. After breakfast was over and Joyce had helped her mother wash tho dishes and put them away John Daring commended them to get ready for church. "I don’t want to go,” Joyce protested. “It will ease your heart, Lass,” her father said. "There was never a night that I did not pray for your saefty and your mother’s. God guarded 'you. It is even possible that His hand guided Butch. Seltzer the night be saved your virtue.” Joyce made no answer. In her heart she knew that Deke had spoken truly the time he had said nothing could harm her. Her innate purity was her strongest protection. But she did not want to go to church now. She wanted to be alone, to dream of a day when she might see Deke again. Perhaps he would let her explain. Her mother’s beseeching look and her father’s stern one sent her upstairs for her wraps and a little later she was walking sedately between them toward the church. After the services they were greeted by the congregation. John Daring was in his element and Joyce felt that here at last her father and mother would find contentment. "They really don't need me,” she thought a little wistfully, watching them start out for a walk after the noon dinner. “Mother is cooking for him the way a bride does when she’s first married. And he thinks she’s all that’s sweet and wonderful. And she is, too. But oh dear, I guess I’m a selfish pig. I envy them their happiness.” John and Agnes Daring were speaking of Joyce. “She's worrying about A. J. Deacon's boy,” John Daring said. "Does she ever say anything?” “No,” his wife answered. “And

I don’t think we can do anything to help. We'll just have to keep her comfortable and contented at home, and let things work themselves out. She's young yet. I’m past forty, John, and I’ve found happiness.” He looked at her lovingly. "After a long search Agnes. We both had to learn a lesson. I am happier than I have ever been In my life, if only this cloud of trouble can be lifted from Joy’s mind.” “It seems almost wicked for us to be happy while Joyce is sad,” Agnes Daring said, pressing her husband’s arm. “No one can live another’s life for him,” John Daring answered her. But that night and for many nights after he knelt and prayed for Joyce, earnestly, and simply, and it great length before going to bed. Early In the week Joyce had a letter from Judge Perkins. Part of it said: “I am glad that you have settled the matter of your father and mother’s comfort. You ask me about investing some money in your mother’s name since she will not” accept a large gift. I suggest that you buy SIO,OOO worth of 6 per cent bonds, any issue that your New York bank advises. This will give her an income of S6OO a year, or SSO a month, and the principal may then revert to you. “Several people have asked for your address. At first I was disinclined to give it to any one, but since you must return here to take your share in the establishment of the Maltby Orphan Asylum I can see no further point in withholding it. Anew sensation has arisen to take the place of Seltzer’s death, and Carter Deland seems to have vanished. So I think you may count on returning quietly in another month or so.” Joyce wondered if Deke was among those who had asked for her address. But when no letter came that week she felt sure that Deke had indeed forsaken her. She felt that her sad face was a constant reproach to her father and mother’s new-found happiness, but she could not bear herself more cheerfully. The end of the week was at hand and Joyce walked to the postoffice to ask for mail and to buy some groceries for her mother. Her father would be out on the 6 o'clock train and Agnes Daring's whole day

now centered in the hour of his arrival for supper. As Joyce entered the room that served as postoflice and general store she saw the clerk glance curiously at her. No one came to wait on her. She asked for the mail and was told curtly that there was none. She went back to the grocery counter and the clerk lounged toward her. “Well, cutie?” he said. Joyce looked at him in amazement, thinking that he must sudnedly have taken leave of his senses. There was a titter from the postoffice window. “Show her what we got today,” said the postmistress. The clerk, still leering at Joyce, took a paper from underneath the counter. It was addressed to the postmaster of the town where Joyce and her father and mother were now living. Scarcely able to credit her eyes Joyce saw that it was the Cleveland paper which had carried the most lurid account of her escapade with Carter, had hinted innuendos about Butch’s death, and had intimated that her inheritance of the Maltby fortune was not what it was represented to be. “That’s where you got the means to pay cash money for a swell new home, is it?” the clerk asked, pointing to Carter’s picture. “Ain't nobody round here with that much money, though they's just as big fools,” the postmistress joined in. coming from the little window where she handed out the mail. "You come to the wrong place if you want another one like that. Or is he still around?” she placed iter finger on Carter's picture. “Better not try to bring him in here—we’re God-fearing, respectable

folks and we don’t allow no such carrying on.” Joy’s face burned crimson. She left the store and went across the street where she made her purchases. As she left this store she saw the postmistress crossing the street, the Cleveland paper in her hand. "Who sent It?” Joyce asked herself. "If Judge Perkins gave my address to anyone Mattie Truesdale knows, why she was the one of course.” (To be continued) Copyright. 1927. Famous Features Syndicate. Inc.
