STORE CHAPTER IX OTEPHEN made a mistake when O he suspected that Huck would asic Pamela to a night club. Huck was too well known at ail of these places to risk it He didn’t wan his world to find out that he was interested in the girl. It would leak of soon, of course, but he intended to put through his plans before anyone started interfering, and that would mean before Pamela’s father returned from abroad. Au his car moved through the traffic and Pamela sat back with ill-concealed impatience. Huck let his eyes feast upon her. He made no attempt to mask them. Pamela was watching the sea of faces that moved by. some of them turned with frank curiosity toward her and her companion. The silkiness of her smooth blond hair—Huck knew it wasn’t bleached—the haughty curve where her chin merited into her throat, appealed to him He liked fineness. And fineness in women had been denied him. The wealth of jewels Pamela wore meant nothing to him. He wanted Pamela because he was madly infatuated with her. He had tried to stem the tide of madness when he first realized that was sweeping over him. His better judgment told him it was dangerous to fall in love with a girl like Pamela. But he. might as well have tried to stop the North river from flowing into the sea. A sudden slowing of the car when a pedestrian darted unexpectedly in front of it threw them closer together. Pamela drew quickly away. She was uneasy. - The quiet force of Huck’s personality was beginning to disturb her. She remembered that Harold had warned her he’d been unable to learn anything at all concerning the man. It was one thing to flirt with him In her father's hotel, another to be out with hi malone. Pamela was not too sheltered to know that wolves still prowled in sheep's clothing. B B It “\T TELL, I'm no Little Red RidVV ing Hood." she told herself scornfully, but she was not sorry to arrive home. She started to say good night as soon as they entered the lobby, but Huck pleaded for a dance in the grill. “I’m tired,” Pamela said shortly, but there was nothing in her appearance to bear her out in her excuse. She was radiant, perhaps still flushed a trifle with anger. It was

Tony Tarver flung up her gallant., Byronic little head and fixed Crystal with challenging, blue eyes: “Crys, what sort of girl would you say I am?" “Your're not, easy to put on a , .umbnail. Tony,” Crystal replied, "I can give you a list of adjectives that I have heard applied to you and which fit perfectly: gay, gallant. courageous, square-shooter, beautiful, without a scrap of conceit—” •'That's enough!" Tony interrupted, with odd curtness. Then, her lovely mouth twisting with a bitterness that Crystal had never seen on it before: "So much for adjectives. Crys—and thanks! Now —how do these nouns strike you? Cheater, thrill glutton, teaser, poor sport—” “„ a nd that's enough!” Crystal cried. “Did you let Dick Talbot call you those names and—live?” Tony laughed, a queer, harsh sound. "Yes—and agreed with him, I believe. Oh—with slight reservations. of course! Didn't I intimate a while ago that Id been—hurt?” "Oh, Tony! This can't be you!” Crystal groaned. "To think that Dick Talbot, who has pretended to be in love with you—” "That's just it!" Tony admitted, dully. "It seems, darling, that he really does love me. I began to suspect that he'd gone deadly serious about it tonight at dinner. "He made all my plans for having you snare his interest by ignoring him look pretty silly, didn't he? And it would have been a good plan even e month ago. . . . Well!” she shrugged, supped off the bed. and began to undress as if the subject were closed. Crystal lay back wearily on her pillows. “And so, because he's convinced you that he really loves you in a big way, you let him prove it by calling you vile names?” “Right!” Tony agreed. “There was an adjective you forgot to include in your gorgeous list. Crys—one I've been sort of fond of tacking on to myself. Fair-minded. Rather a masculine trait, but I’ve always thought I had it. Pat thinks so too.’ 'she added wistfully. "Fairminded. . . . You see, Crys,” she began again, r '*er a long pause, very slowly, wlfrn she had sat down to the dressing table and dipped her fingertips into a squat, black jar ot cold cream, "looking at it from Dick’s viewpoint, he has a perfect right to make out a strong case against me. "I have let him make love to me almost as much and often as he . pleased, without being a good

imply unthinkable that a little nobody stenographer should have the power to disturb her! Huck had guessed at her feelings toward him and was quick to suggest that if she could get up a party he would take them all to the new midnight revue that had opened the previous week and was already a sensation. He smiled inwardly over her immediate interest in the invitation. He knew then that Pamela was just a bit afraid of him. That suited him; he’d feared she might be indifferent. "But it's simply impossible to get tickets." she said hopelessly. •■l’ll get them,” Huck promised; "but not more than six, please. Your brother might like to go if we an locate him." he added cunningly. Tii ask if he’s come in,” Pamela responded and hurried over to the desk Harold would rave when he learned, if he did, that she’d been out with Huck. but she knew he’d been disappointed about tickets for the revue. She counted on that to drag him along and prevent him from making trouble for her. She learned that Harold was in his room. "I’ll get him,’ she said to Huck. "Be down in a minute.” She found Harold drinking orange mice and bicarbonate of soda. He looked all in. What’s the matter with you?” she napped "Lose again? It doesn't take that gang up there long to clean you, does it? I should think you and take up ping pong or knitting afghans instead of playing poker.” "What a comforting presence you are, her brother jeered. "What did you bust in here for, anyway?” T bear thee gifts,” Pamela smiled. "Come along, little brother. For the first time in my life I want a chaperon." "Is your new boy friend getting rough?” Harold sneered. "Now don’t try to look innocent. I hunch you were out with Connor.” "Why pick on him? Why not Stephen Armitage?” Pamela mocked. tt tt a WELL, maybe. I’ve left a call fer Armitage,” "So you're spwng on me, are you? I’ll pay you off, don’t forget. But just now we’ve got a date with Huck." "Oh. have we?” “Yes, vve have. He's got tickets. Tickets, boy, that you couldn’t buy for love or money.” “Yeah?” "The new revue! Go on down and hold him to it while I phone up a crowd.” "I dont suppose you would ask Angela?” Harold said, wavering between the bait and his better judgment. “I would not! Did you see anything of Margola’s bunch? They were coming around to pick me up for the Webley’s dance.” “I just got in,” Harold told her. "They may be downstairs.” Pamela found her friends in the grill. Later someone got raked over the coals for not having told her they were waiting. There were a dozen in the party, but Pamela got Margola aside, and they planned to separate two more and then give the others the slip. That would make the full quota of six. Pamela never bore down lightly cn account of expense. And with Huck to foot the bills

enough sport—as he puts it—to finish what I started.” Crystal’s pale face blazed with anger. "The rotten little cad! You’ve told him a dozen times, at least, that you would not marry him! He knew you meant it—” "Which,” Tony interrupted, in an oddly dispassionate voice, “is exactly the crux of the matter, darling. Dick contends—if that’s a strong enough word—that I've given him every right to think I preferred another and less public and binding relationship. “Quite a genteel way to express it, isn’t it? But. Dick's way—” She shrugged a bare shoulder. “Hence when I flashed the Stop signal tonight, it all came tumbling out. One modem young man’s frank opinion of the modern girl who issues promissory notes and refuses to pay.” To Be Continued.)

ther seemed no occasion to do so. 1 tey had good seats and a sumptuous supper. Huck was the perfect host, a little cider and more formal than his guests, but Pamela saw that he interested Margola not a little. Huck being her find, she felt impelled to keep him. "Nothing doing,” she declared when she heard Marogla tell Huck she’d like to dance with him. "He’s promised not to dance with anyone but me.” And while the show was in progress and the lights were dimmed she let him hold his arm on the back of her chair, with the tips of his fingers touching her shoulder, without pulling away. Huck’s petting certainly was tame, she told hertelf, but a wee voice whispered back that he hadn’t started yet.

OAMELA turned her head to look |*- at him and met his eyes full ; upon her face. She could not read | them, but she knew that if she | could she wouldn't have found their message tame. "Great idea, reviving the roof garden show, isn't it?” she said lamely. "Are you having a good time?” Huck asked in return. “Like it?” Pamela nodded. The show was good but it meant nothing as com- ■ pared to the thrill she was experiencing through the knowledge that this man beside her was falling so hard he’d get to the point of I trembling over her opinion of his efforts to entertain her. And when next they danced to- “ gether and Huck held her closer she dropped her head on his shoulder and told herself she might be playing with fire but it certainly was exciting. She had forgotten Stephen, who had called the hotel and found no one wished to speak to him. Harold, too, was succumbing to Huck’s campaign to win his confidence. There was absolutely nothing about the fellow that was offensive, so far as he could observe. "Great time,” he said to Huck when they left the place, and in his voice was admiration for a man of power. Another thing in Huck’s favor in Harold's eyes was the fact that | Huck hadn’t once made a remark | that could be construed as a lead ; to a person he intended to victimize. Harold called Mildred’s warning “imagination,” when he thought of it later that night. Huck had come up to Harold’s room for a nightcap and Harold had introduced Wall Street into the conversation Huck had not appeared interested in the subject. "Pamela tells me you’re a broker,” | Harold said finally. Huck waved that aside carelessly. "To be frank with you, I’ve retired and only take a flyer now and then for the pleasure. You see, I had a run of luck in Chicago, and when I got enough I quit.” "I don’t see how you could,” Harold remarked. “I like t-> gamble and I can’t quit it.” “Well, old man, it was doctor’s orders with me. Too exciting.” Harold looked concerned. “Oh, I see. That’s too bad.” Huck smiled as one afflicted trying to make an effort to be cheerful.

“I thought so, too, until I found that I could get a kick out of playing the ponies,” he said lightly: "I'm pretty lucky at it, and it isn’t such a strain.” I Harold regarded him enviously. "My luck is rotten,” lie said gloom - i ily. Then a brighter expression passed over his countenance. “But , f haven’t tried the ponies,” he added ; hopefully. And that night when Huck left I Harold's rooms he did not go to his : own as he had said. Instead he took | a taxicab to an address in the West 1 Forties.
