BEGIN HEBE TODAY When Diana Farweil’s motner overbears talk or love between her daughter and a schoolboy friend, sne is tearful that Diana will “go wrong" like her sister, Vivian, who ran away irom home lour years before, bo the mother hastens a marriage oi Diana witn Arthus Vane, some years older, a successful San i'rancisco lawyer. Diana is only IB and she goes into marriage believing “Arthur is so different irom other men he always will be satisned with mere spiritual love.” He respects her reserve, as a young gin's natural snyness. at nrst. But, alter mouths 01 loveless weueu life, he tells her she has wrecked his life. Some time after her mother dies, Diana leaves Arthur and nnas her sister. Vivian; preparing lor a trip to New xork. Diana rents a room at the home of Mrs. Burtau, widowed friend of Diana’s mother. Mid enrolls in Seton’s Scnool for Acting. Within a lew months she has progressed so wen witn' her work that she is taken bv Shepherd Seton, head of the school, as ills personal pupil. He arouses in her, in the impassioned love scenes they rehearse together, sensations she has never had belore. Diana falls passionately in love with Setion. Arthur refuses to divorce her. Seton’s wife goes East for six weeks and Diana notices a coolness in his attitude t °She ( *calls’ on Mrs. Burton, who gives her her a letter from Vivian. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXIX WHEN Mrs. Burton returned, after disciplining her youngest daughter, Diana was impatient to be off. The letter from Vivian was dated two weeks earlier. She must be back in San Francisco now. “If anyone calls me,” Diana said, in leaving, “will you please give them this telephone number?” Mrs. Burton copied it. "Where are you living, Diana?” ' “With another girl,” she said, deliberately withholding her address. Mrs. Burton’s “motherly” instincts would undoubtedly lead her to inform Arthur if she knew. But the lady persisted. “Are you in a rooming house?” “No, an apartment. It’s very convenient, really. You see, we are both students at Seton’s.” Mrs. Burton nodded. Diana could see that she was picturing the wild orgies which she thought probably took place in that unchaperoned apartment. She would be surprised to know what sedate lives the two girls led. Only what would she think about a man paying the rent? That, admitted Diana, would be difficult to explain to the most broad-minded. And as a matter of fact, the situation had worried her lately. She said good-by and hurried away. The visit had shifted her point of view a little. In spite of the modern views she had so recently imbibed, she was compelled to remember that the ordinary world, which was has mother’s and Mrs. Burton’s, frowned upon “affairs.” Also, that no well-bred girl accepted expensive favors from any man. “But Vivian does.” she thought, walking rapidly and deeply absorbed. “Perhaps, after all, there is

nothing really wrong about it.” The older women who seemed so set against it might be mistaken. Perhaps the relations of beautiful girls and their admirers were more innocent than the conventional ones suspected. Certainly she had seen nothing wrong at Vivian’s. And her own affair with Seton was based on merely similar tastes and comradeship. Yet she was unaccountably disturbed. Someone was wrong. Probably Mrs. Burton. But supposing it were those others! At any rate, she decided to ask Nadine to move. Let Jim help her in other ways if he wished. Renting an apartment seemed too definitely compromising! As she entered her own door the telephone rang and even before she heard the gay, high-pitched voice, she suspected it was Vivian. “Diana, Mrs. Burton tells me you have moved. What was the matter?” “Little difference in our points of view,” Diana replied. To her surprise, Vivian seemed annoyed. “Well, where are you?” Diana told her. “If you aren’t busy, I’m coming right over,” continued Vivian. Diana was brilliant over the prospect of seeing her sister again. She gave Nadine a careful account of a beautiful sister who was “awfully artistic and knew heaps of Interesting people.’’ “What does she do?” questioned Nadine, much impressed. “Oh, ( different things,” evaded Diana. “She’s really more of a critic. Sort of an inspiration to others who do things.” Nadine nodded. “I think that would be wonderful, don’t you? Much nicer than doing something yourself.” Diana thought Nadine might be rather clever at it, but she said no more. The two girls straightened the living room, lighted the Are and rearranged the flowers Jim never failed to send. “We’re going out " Nadine explained. “So you can nave It all to yourself.” But she had not gone when Vivian arrived. Diana, wrapped in

her sister’s soft embrace, was surprised to see the hazel eyes studying Nadine critically. She admired the apartment and asked how much they had to pay for it. A question which embarrassed them obviously, although Nadine did manage an answer. And when Jim came, Vivian astonished the girls by saying, “But I know Mr. Devlin. How are you, Jim?” Diana thought her voice was abrupt. But Jim bowed over her hand and showed no hint of surprise at seeing her. When he and Nadine had gone, Vivian lighted a cigaret and sad firmly, “Come now, Diana, let’s have the truth. What does Jim Devlin have to do with it?” Diana smiled, rather proud of her recently acquired sophistication. “Not a thing,” she said, airily, “except to pay the rent. You see, he’s so confident that Nadine will make good that he wants to help her.” “Diana Farwell, what do you mean?” “Well, you told me yourself there was no limit to the things some men will do for a girl.” Vivian threw her cigaret into the ash tray and began to pace the room. “I also told you,” she said sternly, “that you were to leave men alone,” “But it isn’t my affair ...” “You’re living here, aren’t you? I’m surprised at you, Diana. Really I am.”

“But, Vivian, don’t you accept things?” “That’s different,” snapped Vivian, her beautiful eyes flashing. “I’m older than you are, remember! Besides, what I do has nothing whatever to do with it. You must be. careful!” Diana was sitting uncomfortably upright among the cushions. “Will you tell me,” she asked, bewildered, “why It is that every one thinks they have to look after me? I’m not a baby. I’m almost as old as you were when you ran away.” “We won’t go into that,” Vivian said, insolently. “If I seem to be looking after you, it isn’t because I

I suppose you wish I hadn’t.’* “Don’t be silly,” Viyian said, more gently. “If I didn’s love you I wouldn’t care what became of you. But you said you wanted a career. And I know you can’t accomplish anything if you’re upset over some man.” “You’re not speaking from a moral standpoint, then?” Diana inquired, rather mollified. “Not at all,” Vivian answered. “For the sake of your future as an
