It was R.or with a breakfast tray. Celia hat vp in bed. rubbing her eyes. "Is it late?" she asked. "Ten o’clock. Mrs. Parsons went out half an hour ago. She said not to disturb you until this time. Will you have your tray now?” “Yes. I'd no idea I had slept so long!" Rose arranged the shades so that t.he yellow sunlight sifted into the room. She placed the dainty breakfast tray before Celia and poured the coffee. Its aroma aroused the girl’s appetite. Celia considered the day before her as site ate. It was difficult to believe she ever had been away. She was a little ashamed now of her ' flight. Still, she had discovered her mother’s absence, and that was important. First of all, Celia decided, she must telephone to Barney. She did it immediately after she had finished breakfast, not even waiting to dress. She gave the number of his club and sat impatient until she heard the operator’s voice. "I’ll see if Mr. Shields is in,” the operator answered. There was a clicking sound, a pause and then Barney Shields’ deep voice came over the wire crisply. "Hello! This is Shields speaking.” “Good morning,” Celia replied. "I’m glad I caught you, Barney. This is Celia.” "Oh—how do you do!” His tone was instantly chilled. "I called because I want to see you,” Celia went on. "I tried to reach you the other evening, but you were out. Barney, I’m terribly sorry about what happened the other day. Father really didn’t mean to be so rude!” "Don’t think of it! It doesn’t matter in the least.” "But it does to me. I felt dreadfully! When am I going to see you, Barney?” There was a moment’s pause. Then the young man said: “I’m sorry, but I’m going to be very busy the next few days.” His voice was politely personal. “I’m afraid I’d better not make any engagements.” “You mean you’re working?” . "Well, yes. I'm going to be pretty well tied up.” Celia could hardly believe her ears. "Bat, Barney," she exclaimed, "surely you could find time to come over for just a little while. Or I’ll meet you. Anywhere you say!” She spoke rapidly and eagerly. “Sorry, but I’m afraid I couldn’t make it.” It was Celia who paused this time* "Oh,” she said, then slowly, “Oh—l see. Well—l’m sorry to have troubled you! I won’t take any more of your time. Goodby.” tt tt AS she put down the telephone her head sank to the table pillowed on one arm. Her shoulders quivered, but there was no sound of weeping. For a long while the girl did not look up. At last she raised her head. There were tear drops on each cheek. Celia brushed them aside and cleared her throat. She glanced down and noticed that she still was wearing her filmy nightgown. Wearily she arose and went to the bathroom for her shower. The cold water improved her spirits. She dabbled with cosmetics, found some cool, fresh smelling toilet water that was agreeable on her arms and throat. By the tirnfe Celia had finished dressing she had convinced herself that the coldness she had thought she heard in Barney’s voice

was entirely imaginary. No doubt he was busy. Barney was so taken up with his work. She told herself that in a day or two she would hear from him. Evelyn Parsons arrived half an hour before luncheon. She had had an appointment with her lawyers, she said. Evelyn was cheerful and Celia’s mood Improved. They were still at the table when there was a ring at the doorbell. The maid answered and in a few moments they heard a gay, shrill voice. “Lisi!” exclaimed Celia. "Herself in person—not a talking picture!” Lisi Duncan announced as she appeared in the doorway, “and how are all the dear little listeners today? Greetings, my children!” “Do sit down, Lisi. Have you had lunch?” Evelyn waved her to a chair. “Yes, thanks. I ate like a starving Armenian before I left home. Celia, I came to take you to a matinee. Can you go?” “I’d love to!” “That’s fine. It’s a musical thing —‘Rainbow’s End’ it’s called. Kate liked it so probably I won’t, but people are talking about it and ths songs are good. You won’t need to dress, will you?” Celia decided there were a few improvements in her appearance she would need to make. She started for her room. “Don’t primp!” Lisi called after her. “We ought to start in twenty minutes!” Before that time Celia was back again wearing a blue afternoon dress and blue hat. Evelyn said good-by and the girls departed. “Dickey got me the tickets,” Lisi explained as they entered the elevator car. ‘‘They’re sold out weeks ahead at the box office, but one of Dicky’s best friends is in the company.” Dicky himself, it developed, was out of town on a brief, preliminary tour before his new play opened in New York. Lisi did not seem to be much concerned. She had met a young aviator and was trying to devise means to enroll in ground school without her family’s knowledge. As soon as she had finished that, she saick the aviator would teach her to fly a plane. The girls decided to walk cross town. Lisi as usual kept up a ready Are of conversation. Once when she was in the midst of a paean of praise directed at the flier she put a hand on Celia's arm. “Sometimes it worries me,” she confided seriously. “Tell me, Celia, you don’t think I could be fickle, do you?” The other girl smiled and shook her head. “I don’t think you’ve had a chance to find out yet,” she said. “You don’t really care much about any of the men you know. You’re just thrilled over doing anything your long-suffering relatives wouldn’t approve of.” “Celia! But you don’t understand. I tell you I’m simply mad about Douglas !” u tt x THERE was more of the same sort and then they reached the theater. The curtain was up and a group of girls in snort orange and green costumes was singing the opening chorus. The seats to which Celia and Lisi were ushered were on one side. They could see only a part of the stage, but every seat around them was taken. A comedian appeared and then there was a tuneful duet between the heroine and the leading man. “Rainbow’s End” proved to be the familiax musical comedy formula with excellent dancing and a few melodious songs. The leading actress was a popular favorite and received repeated encores. Though Celia, whose theatergoing had been limited, the matinee was a glamorous affair. They left the theater with the strains of the finale, a lilting waltz, ringing in their ears. The orchestra was still playing the tune. “It was lovely!” Celia said enthusiastically. “I like it best of all the new plays I’ve seen!” Lisi was inclined to qualify her praise. They made their way through the pushing crowd to Broadway. There they turned and had almost reached Forty-third street, when Lisi stopped. “Look!" she cried. "There's Tod Jordan J” Celia followed the other girl’s glance. Jordan saw them at the same time and came toward them. “This is luck,” he said. “Just the company I would have chosen with the whole town to pick from!

What do you say we drop in some place for a little nourishment?” Celia sought for an excuse, but could find none. She had not seen Jordan for five days, though she knew he had called Evelyn’s apartment several times. She had not sen him since she had discovered Barney Shields was tbe man she loved. Jordan’s eyes were on Celia, but it was Lisi who answered promptly: "Os course we will. Love to! I'm actually pining for the cup that cheers—with about a dozen caviar sandwiches on the ;ide!” a a a THERE was nothing for Celia to do but agree. Jordan signaled a cab and they rode to a fashionable hotel. Lisi chattered about the musical comedy and even volunteered to impersonate the leading lady. Celia, trying not to appear nervous, encouraged her. Two thoughts preyed on her mind. She was afraid they might encounter her father and she was equally anxious to avoid being left alone with Jordan. She tried to keep from looking st him but she knew Jordan was watching her. When she did glance toward him Celia saw something in the man’s eyes that made her cheeks flush. If Lisi should rush away from them, as, in her madcap manner, she was quite likely to do. Celia knew she would have to tell Jordan that her feeling toward him had changed. They entered the hotel and crossed the lobby to the dining room. Groups of men and women sat at tables. There were girls who were beautiful and others who were plain. Boys making the most of a brief vacation from college. A few older men. Elaborately dressed women sitting in twos and threes. A bowing head waiter led Jordan and the two girls to a table. The young man gave the order and then offered cigarets. Celia refused, but Lisi took one. "Why’re you so quiet today, Celia?” Jordan asked. “Am I? I didn’t mean to be.” “Celia’s disgusting. She thinks I don’t know anything about love. Just imagine!” With this Lisi launched an account of her handsome aviator and a general discussion of romance. It was amusing and by the time she had completed the subject, tea had been served and finished. “Better be going, hadn’t we?” Celia suggested. The others rose, following her example. As they left the dining room Lisi walked ahead. Jordan was beside Celia. He glanced down at her and was about to speak when he saw her expression change. Jordan’s eyes followed the girl’s. She was looking to the left where, twenty feet away, Barney Shields stood watching them. (To Be Continued) 10,000 TRAINED PIGS ON TRUFFLE DRIVE Keen Noses Locate Table Delicacy in Forest of France. By United Frets PARIS, Nov. 10.—Ten thousand trained pigs and dogs today are engaged in the annual fall truffle drive in the forests of France, locating in the shallow soil the gastronomic delicacies which bring from 60 cents to $1 for sauce to tickle the Jaded palates of the world’s epicures. When hogs’ keen noses scent the fungi, usually beneath oak trees, the alert truffle hunter jerks the restraining chain, digs up the truffle himself and rewards the hog with a handful of acorns. The truffle packs roam the forests for five months, frequently hunting on contract or percentage. Gourmets eat nearly 1,000 tons of truffles yearly.

TARZAN AND THE LOST EMPIRE

Tarzan recognized immediately that it was an animal who was trying to force its way into the hut, but the acrid fumes of the village cook fires so filled the air that he was unable to catch the scent of the creature on the roof. Presently he saw a little ray of moonlight. A hole had been forced through the rouf. Tarzan saw a dark thing silhouetted agains* ihe sky*

As the figure became clear, a broad smile illuminated the face of the ape-man. Now he saw strong little fingers working at the twigs that were fastened across the rafters, and presently the opening was inclosed by a furry little t body that wriggled through and dropped to the floor .ije the prisoner. “How did you And me* littk ima?” whispered Tarzan.

Nkima spoke in the language of the apes. He had been sitting high In the branches of a tree all day waiting for darkness to come. Now he proposed to go back and bring Murivo and the Waziri warriors to the rescue. “They could not get here in time,’’ said Tarzan. “Go back and wait. I will join you.” At that moment, one of the series, hearing voices, crawled into the hut*
