A.' SUI TOR KMJk TOO MANY I AMILDKED

Hula LATHAM becomes the bride of HERBERT WARE, but the picture of an old sweetheart, CAPTAIN JACK FARSUAHAR, lurks in her mind. She condes her plight to her friend, DOROTHY CAINE, an artist. While in France during the war, Lila had promised Jack that she would become his bride when his regiment came hack from the front. Jack is reported dead, and later his insurance is forwarded to Lila, who gives it to disabled veterans. ' * Herbert learns of the gift, and Lila days the money was her uncle’s and was given in memory of his son. Several other complications arise over the gift, but Herbert’s mind is pat at rest. Lila one day sees GILROY HOLMES, a war-time buddy of Jack, and she faints. She learns that Jack is not dead and is to return to New York that day. She meets him, and he invites her to luncheon. During the meal, Jack asks Lila to marry him. While he is explaining his miraculous escape from death and the circumstances of his return, Lila is laying her plans. She doesn’t dare tell him she’s married, so she says she can’t marry him pow, because, to save her father from financial ruin, she has become engaged if) one of his business associates. Various crises, after this, keep Lilacs nerves on edse, bu* she manages a keep Jack in ignorance of her marriage and Herbert in ignorance of Jack’s existence. CHHAFTER XXIX That Treacherous Radio WHEN Lila hurried home, after getting rid of a distinctly suspicious and sulky Jack Farquahar, she found Dorothy descending from her car in front of the house. ' Dorothy looked relieved at the sight of Lila. .“You haven’t seen Herbert, yet?’’ she asked quickly. Lila shook her head, a premonition of disaster coming over her. “I’ve just left Jack, and, Dot, he was terrible! I think he suspects something.” .."Never mind Captain Farquahar. Listen to me. Herbert rang up my studio at noon sharp.” Lila’s knees threatened to give ■way. “What did you say?” “When he asked for you, I told hihi that I’d just posed you, and please not to ask me to make you break the pose, or I’d have to start painting over again.” “Did he believe you,” breathed Lila. “Apparently—with reservations. But my telephone rang at intervals all the afternoon. I didn’t answer it. Probably it was he. I wanted him to think that we’d gone out together. That’s why I drove down to warn you. We can pretend we’ve done a concert.” "It’s awful, Dot, these lies!” moaned Lila. ;“Well, I never had much hope of seeing the Golden Gates anyway,” said Dorqthy whimsically. “'And a fib told in a good cause to help a friend—well, I don’t know, Lila, I rather believe a just providence will make allowance. But, if you feel squeamish, we might go iij and turn on the radio—the Baranov Orchestra is to broadcast this afternoon.” Laughing shakily, Lila led the way into the house. Siddons opened the door with a smirk. ’“Mr. Ware telephoned several tithes this afternoon, Madame.” “What did I tell you?” Dorothy’s eyes telegraphed to Lila. a a a latter ordered tea, and, A when it had come, Dorothy, with a whimsical smile, turned on the radio* The sound of orchestra music filled the room. “The Baranov orchestra!” exclaimed Lila,. “Well, I shan’t feel quite such a fibber.” ■She began to tell Dorothy about her interview with Jack. “And he even sent me flowers,” she wailed. “To Dad’s house. Remind me to telephone over there later.” It was not long after the concert was finished that Herbert came in. His brows lifted at the sight of Dorothy. “I telephoned your studio several times ahis afternoon,” he was beginning, when Lila cut him off. “I know,” she nodded. “But Dot and I were listening to the Baranov orchestra.” - •

"Thc whole play will be laid in the courtroom—see?” Harry Blaine tapped Crystal’s silken knee with a triumphant forefinger. “Sure-fire stuff. Look at ‘The Trial of Mary Dugan’! They eat it up! Say, that play—but back to the masterpiece vs Henry James Blaine; Here’s my idea in a nutshell: We—” v That “we” was music in Crystal’s enraptured ears—“open with Cherry, or whatever we’re going to call her in the play, sitting at her lawyers’ table—a tiny, lovely little thing, scared to death of the mob that’s come. to look at ‘that notorious Cherry Lane,’ who killed her aged fiancee when he tried to keep her from marrying her young lover. Man after man takes the stand and testifies to having been engaged to the girl or —worse!” > “Oh, but Cherry—” Crystal began to, protest. * .“Sure, I know! But we’ve got to give ’em strong stuff in a play if we want to make Broadway,” Harry Blaine assured her. “Here’s a girl who’s been a belle since she could toddle, a heartbreaker since she was old enough to bob her hair and pampered by her adoring mother and sister. “And right there, in front of a mob of people she wouldn’t have looked at before, and face to face with the men who’d fallen over ttiemselves to set her to notice them, she sees her. reputation torn to shreds, her life tumbling about her ears. vin my second act I build the case against her until the audience will be dead sure she’s going to be convicted. I can get all the evidence against her right out of the files of the Press, or her lawyers will give me a transcript of the reai case, I’ll bet. "The second act pins it on her, all right, so that it looks like nothing on earth can save her. “Then in the third act, when the i

She was congratulating herself that she had phrased her answer so that it was not a direct lie, when she became aware that Herbert was asking icily: “You know! How do you know, if you were not there?” See looked helplessly at Dorothy, who responded promptly: “Weren’t you aware, Herbert, that I always keep in touch with my studio by telephone.” “But I didn’t leave my name with your switchboard operator.” Dorothy smiled negligently. “Ah, you’ve no idea of the intelligence of that girl! She knows your voice, especially since you,” she looked prettily apologetic, “made rather a fuss yesterday when you called to find out at what hour Lila had visited my studio.” Herbert flushed. “I never fuss,” he said stjffly. Lila changed the conversation, unfortunately. “Herbert, darling, you’ve no idea how wonderful the Baranov orchestra is! You should have been there.” He looked at her intently. t a a “ / T'HE Baranov orchestra?” he A said politely, and added, with an irony that chilled her, “I should like to have been there, indeed, my dear—if there had been a concert this aibcrnoon. Unfortunately, it was cancelled at the last moment, due to the illness of the leader,” He exhibited the last edition of an, evening paper, which carried a brief notice tc that effect.

prosecuting, attorney—we skip the defense, because the audience knows the defense hasn’t much of a case for her —when the prosecutor is simply giving her hail-Columbia and stripping her of every last shred of reputation and rope. Faith and Bob come in with their real murderer —the slick crook that posed as a crippled beggar, you know. He’s stripped off his disguise right there, their evidence against him is shown right in court, and Cherry is freed. “See?—Freed, but ruined for life just the Same, Oh, I want to make it a bitter indictment against the whole trial-by-jury system, as practiced in this country!” “Not that there’s any better,” Crystal objected mildly. Then, with enthusiasm; “Lots of jury and reporter stuff, Knarry! Mob psychology, too, wjth distant shouts of newsboys shrieking her name—” “That’s the ticket!” Harry Blaine agreed heartily. “I knew you’d be a big help to me. Tell you what, Crys, if we put this thing over, you’re going to get collaborator’s credit!” “Oh, no,” the girl protested, thrilled almost to tears. “What little help I can give you will simply be the greatest pleasure, ” Crystal began, but the words ended unexpectedly in a sob. “I say, Crys—there is something wrong!” Harry put his arm about her and held her close, in an embrace by which she would have been ecstatically thrilled the day before —not because she was in love with Harry Blaine, but because any eligible young man’s marks of favor were so necessary to her, and so seldom received. But now she knew only that it was comforting to be in his arms, and she did not flutter her lashes or giggle with pretended surprise when he kissed her gently, on a tearwet cheek. (To Be Continued)

There was a horrible silence for a moment. Lila’s and Dorothy’s eyes met, asking the mute question: “What orchestra was it, then, that we heard over the radio?” Then Dorothy began to laugh. Herbert looked at her, outraged, but she only chuckled the more. “It’s no use being angry, Herbert. Lila and I admit we’re caught, but you’ll never get us to confess—not in a million years.” Herbert was very dignified. “I think I am within my rights in wanting to know where my wife has been this afternoon.” Dorothy shook her head. She knew there was nothing to do now but try to carry off the situation with a high hand. “Old stuff, Herbert. You talk like an 1830 husband. It isn’t done nowadays. If your wife’s out with a girl friend, that’s sufficient. Women have their secrets, you know.” “I believe,’ said Herbert stiffly, “that I scarecely need you to tell me how to conduct my married life.” “A little good advice never does any harm,” remarked Dorothy cheerfully, quite unimpressedAt this moment, Siddons knocked and entered the room. Lila's heart sank, when she saw what he carried. It was a florist’s box, in mauve and gold, tied with gold gauze. By the size of it, any one could tell that it contained a corsage-bouquet. He walked toward Lila and seemed about to skeak. (To Be Continued) Copyright. 1927. Metropolitan Newspaper Service, New York.
