CHAPTER TEN (Continued) Susan felt Joy suffusing her, •hashing over her like warm rain. Into the waters of this tete-a-lete there dropped the tiniest of pebbles. A girl’s voice, slow and drawing and insolent, broke across £ob Dunbar s. The strange voice said, "Wherever have you been, darling! I’ve been missing you so." Susan glanced up to find the red-haired girl who had been at the Ktrinskys’ party staring Impudently fit her. But the words were addressed to Bob Dunbar, who had spring to his feet. "Miss Ackroyd, this is Miss Carey. he said. Susan wished the ground might ripen and swallow that red-haired girl, Denise. CHAPTER ELEVEN Denise ackroyd. slim and perfect in her tailored suit of black faille, continued to stare indolently at Susan, but her words were addressed to Bob Dunbar. "Where have you been keeping yourself?” Denise went on in that high, sweet, agreeable voice which had rung out above the others that Jhight, at the Strinskys’ studio. Bob said, rather uncomfortably, that he had been with the family at Lake Geneva, that he had got in some jolf. "Yea look it," said Denise, surveying him with what Susan thought a proprietary gaze. Susan felt out of it. The other girl, with the ease and dmoothness of long practice, had taken control of the situation. Susan suddenly was conscious that her rose ping shantung was all wrong. ■She 'wondered, dismally, why she had come. She was out of place in this big, cool, shining room, where all the lunchers seemed to know each other, and stopped to talk and laugh in little intimate groups. If the other girl was aware of fcn.v rudeness in ignoring Susan, she gave no sign. She monopolized young Dunbar completely. It was only when Susan, raging in her heart, gathered up her gloves and said she must go that Denise appeared to notice her. "Oh, you have a job, I suppose?” she said in a surprised, faintly disdainful tone. As if, thought Susan angrily, theer was anything wrong about having a job! "No, don’t come with me,” Susan Insisted to the young man. "Really, I must rush and you may as well stay and talk.” Surely he won’t take me at my word, the girl thought. Surely he’ll finish what he started to say before that hateful Denise interrupted! Womanlike, Susan insisted that the young man should do exactly

what she hoped he would not. She did not really believe he would take her at her word. But Dunbar by this time was bewildered by her silence and sudden coolness. He began to imagine the flash of understanding which had passed between them was nothing but a mirage. He walked with her as far as the lobby where, puzzled and annoyed by her new, distant manner, he left her and returned to the restaurant and Denise. M * B WALKING across town, Susan r:.ged in her heart. The click of her heels kept time with her furious thoughts. "I hate her. I hate her. I hate her,” she stormed inwardly. She was hard put to it to keep back the tears. The day which had seemed so perfect an hour ago was unendurable. The sun beat down on the pavements, the big policeman at Adams and Clark looked fairly wilted. No wonder, thought Susan, that girls like Denise Ackroyd always managed to look so exquisitely turned out. They had their half hundred little French frocks, their efficient maids in the background. They had swimming and tennis. They had adoring parents who existed for ihe sole purpose, apparently, of paying bills. For the first time in her life Susan began to be really sorry for herself. She wondered rebelliously if life needed to be so utterly unfair. The corrosion of self-pity ate into her soul. It was in this mood that she entered the office, hung up her hat, and with notebook in hand went into Mr. Heath’s private office to take dictation. Yesterday all this had seemed quite thrilling. She had imagination to see the poetry that lay behind the prosaic talk of stone and mellow beams and steel work. Yesterday Susan had thought of herself as a cog in this important business machine. A small cog, it is true, but still a necessary one. Now she wondered dully why that had seemed to matter. She wanted passionately to be the sort of girl Denise Ackroyd was. She wanted to be able to laugh and talk flutingly of the endless nothings which seemed to make up the conversation of that particular crowd. Ernest Heath wondered what had happened to the girl. She was so quiet and pale, so subdued. Quite unconsciously he had come in the last few weeks to depend upon and to expect the flash of glowing understanding, the ready response that was half Susan’s charm. Today all that was absent. "I wonder if the girl is ill,” Heath thought, for the moment vaguely annoyed at the idea. For the first time since she had been in his employ he began to speculate, idly, on the girl’s life apart from Ernest Heath, Incorporated. Like most men of his type—correct, dignified, rich and unimaginative—his secretary of the moment always seemed to him to have been created for the sole purpose of arriving promptly at 9 each
morning, discharging her duties j crisply and efficiently, and depart- ■ ing on the stroke of 5 into some dim limbo he neither knew nor cared to know about. • * * MISS O'CONNELL, whose place j Susan was taking, always had seemed to him the veriest robot, It never had occurred to Heath to wonder what her life outside the office might be. But then Miss O’Connell was nearing 40. She wore rimless eyeglasses and, as Ray Flannery had devastatingly announced, had worn a hair net. Susan*was different. Heath, sedate and proper as he was, had not realized what an inspiration there had been for him in this girl’s eager, upward glance. The flash of dark gray eyes under long lashes, the rich apricot color that occasionally stained her cheek—irrationally now he missed them and, manlike, was annoyed without knowing why. Listlessly Susan finished her task. Her employer, with a pricking sense of uneasiness, signed the completed letters, snatched his impeccable Panama from the rack and departed in the direction of Hubbard Woods. Susan closed and locked her desk and dawdled over the business of washing her hands. Somehow, she was not at all eager to go home. The dull pain at her heart which had been clamoring for notice all afternoon seemed intensified. With that sharpness of perception which seems to come to all of us after we have done an irretrievably foolish thing, Susan saw how stupidly wrong she had been to leave Bob Dunbar as she had. “You’re a little fool," she told herself angrily. “You left the field completely to Denise!" She sighed and the sigh was like a groan. "What on earth’s the matter?” a a SUSAN glanced up to see the round eyes of Ray Flannery staring at her. “Nobody,” said Ray sagely, “ever moaned like that unless she was in love.” Susan summoned the ghost of a smile, shaking her head in denial. Ray’s unwinking stare met hers incredulously. . “I know the symptoms,” Ray went on, looking wise, "and take it from me, kid, it isn’t worth it." Warming to her subject, she perched on the nearest desk and continued, "Love’s a lot of hooey. It’s all right in the movies, but what I say is leave it there.” Susan laughed. She couldn’t help it. Ray, with red dandelion head, her pretty face made up in what Aunt Jessie would have thought shameless fashioru Ray being philosophical was really too funny! "I’m telling you,” Ray pursued the subject with relish, “Mamma says to me, she says, ‘Don’t you be going off and getting married like all these crazy kids in Edgewater, without a penny to their names.’ “Mamma says ‘have a good time while you're young. You’re only young once.’” Again Susan’s wan smile answered her. “No fooling,” Ray assured her. "It’s the bunk. They all step out, maybe to Crown Point or St. Joe or somewheres, and first thing you know they’re having a baby and you see them pushing the buggy up and down Sheridan road on Sunday afternoon and looking like they’d cut each other’s throats for a nickel.” Her description was so painfully apt that Susan giggled. Ray had taken out her make-up kit and had begun meticulously to rub more raspberry-colored salve into lips already flaming. Susan watched her, fascinated. For one wild moment her impulse was to confide in Ray. Surely this knowing little creature could tell her how to handle Denise Ackroyd. But some reserve held Susan silent. “Boss gone?” Ray asked, glancing around casually. Susan said he was. "That’s swell,” Ray approved. “He’s a pill, if you ask me. Thu kind that goes around with his nose in the air.” Susan frowned faintly. "He’s been very kind to me,” she said. Ray sniffed. "What I always say

White with terror now, Bu-lot faced ths angry warriors who leaped to prevent his escape and avenge their kiug. Mo-sar took his stand beside his son, crying: “Ka-tan is dead. Mo-sar is now king!" Loudly he called his warriors to defend his claim, and these quickly surrounded him and Bu-lot. Suddenly, Ja-don pressed forward. “Take them both,” he commanded. “The warriors of Pal-ul-don will choose their own king after the assassin of Ko-tan has paid the penalty of his treachery.’’

is, I like a fellow with a little life in him. Some one,”'here she lowered her shrill voice ever so little, "someone like Jack Waring.” Susan was putting on her hat in front of the mirror and so she dtd not hear the soft footfall behind her and was utterly taken by surprise when two warm hands clamped | themselves over her eyes. But she recognized the mocking voice saying, "Who takes my name in vain?” Scarlet, confused, she ! turned to find herself within arm's j length of that philanderer, Jack Waring, himself.

CHILEAN ANDES SHAKEN BY VOLCANIC ACTIVITY Smoke and Flames Spurt From High in the Cordillera. By United Press SANTIAGO, Chile, April 11.—Volcanic activity in the Andes, with heavy rumblings, slight earth tremors and occasional spurts of smoke and flame from high in the Cordillera were reported today in six provines extending 300 miles along the mountain range.

The royal warriors rushed upon the faction surounding Mo-sar. While the fierce and terrible fighting was at its height the two traitors slipped away unnoticed. Quickly they made their way to their palace quarters; and gathering their servants and belongings, prepared for flight. When all was ready, Mo-sar whispered to his son: “The Princess! We must not leave without her—she is half the battle for the throne.” Caring more for escape, Bu-lot reluctantly followed his father to the Forbidden garden.

Once within it, Mo-sar, by a ruse, got rid of the guards and gained the sleeping apartment of O-10-a. Without warning, father and son burst in upon the three ocupants of the room. The princess sprang from her couch. “What is the meaning of this?” she demanded, angrily. Mo-sar had planned to trick O-10-a, that being easier than taking her by force. Then his eyes fell upon the stranger white woman and he gasped in astonishment aiti admiration.

Recovering himself, he cried: “Princess, your father is slain and rebels hold the palace. There is no time to wait—we,must get out of the city at once.
