T THIS HAS HAPPENED VIRGINIA BREWSTER, upon the sadden death of her father, goes to live with a friend, CLARISSA DEAN, and her father. Her fiance, NATHANIEL DANN, objects to this for h; mistrusts DEAN’S motives. Upon phoning NIEL’S studio late one night, VIRGINIA is surpised when his model, CHIRI, answers. This causes a quarrel which is later mended. Hoping to get NIEL away. DEAN arranges to have him offered a position in San Francisco. NIEL begs VIRGINIA to marry him and go west, but she refuses io let ! im sacrifce his art. CLARISSA becomes jealous of VIRGINIA, and the lattsr resolves to leave, but DEAN opposes h.departure and asks her to marry him. When she refuses, he threatenes to reveal the fact that her father cheated him out of StOO.OOO in a bootlegging deal. Recklessly, VIRGINIA pledges herself to marry him if she fails to earn the money to repay him in one year’s time. She then goes to a cheap hotel after pawning one of her rings. The sordidness of the place makes her realize her changed fortunes, but real panic comes later when she hears a brawl through the thin partition and then she knows that she has indeed made a mistake in her choice. She checks out immediately and consults her attornsy who recommends a small, quiet hostelry to nttiich she goes. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XIX VIRGINIA’S things had arrived, she was told, and she asked to have them sent up immediately. It gave her welcome activity to unpack and make a list of the pictures and the few objects d’art she had in her suitcases. The trunks that should have been at the Deans’ were not there, she learned. She called her former home on Park Avenue and directed the superintendent to send them to her new address. They contained nothing but clothing, very little of which she cared to wear now, so she was not impatient to receive them. It was a different Virginia who presented herself at Mr. Gardiner’s office a second time that day. A bit of the thrill of a good fight had got through her* despondency and incited her to a de"' e for action. She handed over ie pearls with remarkable composure and Mr. Gardiner hadn’t the slightest suspicion of the pain it gave her to part with them. “Call up in the morning and I’ll let you know about these things,” he said, referring to the list she had made. I “I really think I have a right to

them,” Virginia said wistfully. “They were mother’s.” This time Virginia left the building with a lighter heart. It meant something to be allowed to hope that she was not stripped of the very last possession that linked her with the life tha seemed now to have been a fairy tale of happiness. But she could not know beyond doubt until morning; and in the meantime she must communicate with Nathaniel. He .might have called the Deans and learned that she was gone. Virginia was smitten with remorse that she had left the day so nearly go by without calling him. He would want to come to her at the first hint of trouble and she had no place to receive him in privacy. She thought of trying to tell him as much as she had planned to let him know, in the parlor of her hotel. That wouldn’t do at all. Virgina had glimpsed the cramped space of that room where every word spoken could be overheard. They might take a ride on a bus top up Riverside Drive, but what a place for Nathaniel in a temper—as he was sure to be. Well, why not go to his studio? It was the best place in the world, Virginia thought, to tell him what had happened with Clarissa. That would be enough to explain why she was breaking with the Deans. Nathaniel would be sure to urge an early marriage, but she could find some reason for putting it off without telling him the whole truth. After a ride down to Washington Square on a bus Virginia walked to Nathaniel’s studio and found him at work. Chiri was posing for him in a red bathing suit of a decidedly boyish cut. Nathaniel threw down his brush and knocked over a chair on his way to greet her when Virginia entered in response to his call to come in. “Will-o-the-wisp,” he chided: “I’ve been trying all day to get you but I couldn’t get a peep from anyone at the Deans. Aren’t they letting you use the phones? I suspected something like that.” Virginia forced herself to laugh at him. She wasn’t going to let Miss Mond know that anything was wrong. “I’ve been busy with Mr. Gardiner,” she explained after murmuring a polite phrase to Chiri. “It was so late when I left his office just now I thought you must be about finished with your work for the day, so I came in to have tea with you.” It was a hint none to subtle for Chiri, but hints were not guiding stars in her life. She settled back on the couch that Nathaniel had been trying to reproduce as a stretch of sea beach and languidly curled her ivory-tinted legs into an intimate pose. “Yes, do make us some tea, Niel,” she coaxed; “I’m so low I could crawl under a pancake.” Nathaniel threw gray daggers at her but he said pleasantly, “You make it, Chiri, while I fix a chair for Miss Brewster.” Virginia looked displeased, but Nathaniel gave her arm a little squeeze of promise as he led her to a chair from which he transferred an assortment of colorful costumes to the floor with one sweep of his hand. “I’ll get rid of her,” he whispered, and vanished after C/.iri, who had shrugged her way into the kitchenette. “Look here, you’ve got to get out,”

he told her firmly. “You were in a hurry to leave a while agO; don’t be a dog in the manger, Chiri.” “Ha, that’s good. What’ve you ever done for me that I should be grateful for? You’d be my man if it weren’t for that hollow shell in there, and you expect me to step out and leave her the field. I won’t do it, so there!” “If you ever say anything like that about Miss Brewster again I’ll be through with you for good,” Nathaniel told her soberly. “I hate to order you out, but I guess I’ll have to if you haven’t sense enough to go.” Chiri laughed. “What wins wars? The orders or the scraps? I’m fighting, do you see? If you want me to go, make it worth my while.” “If you don’t consider it worth your while to be decent I don’t know whgt to offer you.” “This!” Chiri was in his arms, hands pulling his head down, lips crushing against his, her firm young body tense. Nathaniel shoved her away and scolded angrily. ‘What an idiot you are!” Triumph blazed back at him from Chiri’s gypsy eyes. She shook her hands off her shoulders and rubbed the places where his fingers had left red marks. “If you want to bruise me, do it with kisses,” she said, with absolute seriousness. “Good lord!” Nathaniel groaned. “Do I have to murder you?” “Not today. I’ve got all I expect for the nonce.” “Then you’re going?” hopefully. “Oh, I must. So sorry to have to leave you”’ She danced out of the tiny place and dived into the bedroom with a gay, mocking thrill on her smiling lips. Virginia sat wide-eyed in her chair, wondering what method Nathaniel had used that worked so effectively in expediting Chiri’s departure. Oh, well, artists were queer people —perhaps only they could understand each other! She sighed a little, feeling she never could be in complete harmony with a girl who stayed until she was put out and took it joyously. Nathaniel came in with the tea before Chiri emerged from the bedroom. Virginia felt her unseen presence in Nathaniel s room like a damper on the conversation and made no attempt to impart her news to him. She began to think, after ten

minutes had passed, that Chiri would linger over her dressing unnecessarily, but presently she was surprised to see her come out. She was wearing a red crepe dress that cleverly revealed the contours of a remarkably well-formed body. “I’d like to stay to tea,” she said impishly to Virginia, “but Niel’s just given me something I’ve got to put on ice.” "You didn’t give her anything to drink?” Virginia charged Nathaniel after Chiri had slammed the door in her wake. “I didn’t give her anything. She took it,” Nathaniel evaded. “Well, I don’t think you should have allowed her! I’m sure she’s irresponsible enough as it is.” “Please, let’s forget her, sweetheart,” Nathaniel begged. “Tell me, I haVe a feeling that things aren’t all right with you. Is there anything wrong. Virginia?” “Clarissa and I had a misunderstanding,” she confided reluctantly, hoping he wouldn’t press her for all the details. “I knew that would happen! That girl’s got a yen on herself,” Nathaniel declared vehemently. “How did it come about?” “Well, she seemed to think I might change my mind about marrying you,” Virginia told him in the same accents she’d have used to say that babies are found in hollow logs. “Judging you by herself,” Nathaniel remarked sourly.' "I don’t like to Rave you listening to that kind of persuasion,” he went on earnestly. “You’d only be coming to your senses if you realized that you will make a bum marriage with me, Virginia, but I don’t want you to find it out until it’s too late for you to back out.” “There won’t be any more of it. I left the house last night.” “So that’s why they were so uncommunicative today! I couldn't get them even to take a message for you and if I hadn’t heard from you by tonight I was going to raid the place. Where did you go when you left?” Virginia gave him the name. of her hotel, omitting all reference to the Ritz. She did not wi*i him to know how nearly destitute she was. “It’s a satisfactory hotel,” she hastened to add as Nathaniel’s face darkened. “Mr. Gardiner recommended it.” Nathaniel reached for the cup of tea that trembled in her nervous fingers and placed it on the tray. “I

suppose it was very unpleasant,” he said quietly. “With Clarissa, you mean? Yes, it was, and I’d rather not talk about it. But after all I couldn’t stay there and do nothing. It’s much better for me to find some kind of work.” “You’re going to find it a lifesized job being married to me,” Nathaniel returned earnestly. Virginia shook her head, but her eyes fell beneath the dire appeal WHENYOUR HAND GOES TO YOUR HEART j Difficulty in breathing and heart palpitation are symptoms of high blood pressure, which may cut off life suddenly. Our modern habits of life are responsible, putting too great a strain upon the vital organs, especially the liver. When the liver becomes “limp” or sluggish it fails to cleanse the blood of the toxic poisons formed in food waste. The poisons then permeate the system, affecting stomach, kidneys, heart and blood pressure. The liver occasionally needs a little help, and there’s nothing better for this, as medical men today ) know, than a little ox gall. Ox gall is a great natural stimulant for the human liver, promoting its normal active functioning, so essential to real health. Dioxol tablets are genuine ox gall in dainty and tasteless form, each tablet representing 10 drops of pure ox gall. A few bring impressive results. To be sure of getting the genuine ox gall, be sure of getting Dioxol. They cost less than 2c each at druggists. FnmTPCt Take this ad to the I 188 IBwi druggist named below and he will give you a free sample of Dioxol tablets. Try them yourself. See the splendid, quick results. One trial of Dioxol and you will want a full package! Special Agent: Haag Drug Cos.
