MHO'S WHO AND WHAT'S HAPPENED Richard Brahant. a successful young: lawer, has given a year's leave of absence tn Ms wl f

Sally, hoping that she will be changed from a butterfly to a woman by learning something of life. She meets Keith Gilbert, always labelled "Dangerous," and through him associates with New York's gayest crowd of celebrities; among them, T,ee Craig, a pretty artist, and Graham Biowne, a well-known financier. The gay !lfe that Sally leads is not approved by her friend, Barbara Lane, an oid-fashioned wife, but Is shared by Patricia Loring, a modern flapper, who resents the fact that Gilbert Is madlv in love with Sally as she wants him for herself. With Sally she goes to

a house-party at Gilberts country place, and is there when revenue officers appear to arrest Gilbert on a charge of bootleeglng on a big scale, and because one of his men has killed an officer during a fight. Gilbert flees into the night, taking Sally with him, and iries to kidnap her, but she Is rescued by N'eal Calhoun, who is trailing Gilbert. Gilbert accuses Sally of betraying him to Calhoun and vows vengeance. He is Imprisoned, but escapes. Sally goes with Barbara lane and her husband, Andrew, to a house-party at the Randalls'. At the country club there she meets Gilbert, who goes under an assumed name, and Is looking for her. Neal Calhoun rescues her when Keith Gilbert is captured. CHAPTER XLIII A NEW ROAD Sally met Neal Calhoun in the library the next morning. She had a ruriously detached feeling, as if the pvents of the night before had severed her from her former life completely. She had been sitting in an arbor of

pink rambler roses, her lap overflow

ing with the yellow and white blossoms that she had gathered as she strolled through the garden. It was so peaceful there, so quiet, that she

learn, Mrs. Brabant. Simply because you've always led a sheltered, secluded life you mustn't think you're always going to. And probably all this has taught you something." "More than you know," she answered, her piquant little face grown sud

denly sad. "But you were going to give me some good advice about the future. Tell me is'nt there something that I can do, some way that I can fit into a place In the world?" "Yes go to work. You said last night that you were useless, that you didn't know how to do anything. Msfny a woman has reached that conclusion, under worse circumstances than you'll ever experience. Think of the women what are left widows, with little children to support, and no way of doing it. Now, why don't you talk things over with Lee Craig? She fought her way ud, you know made a career for herself." "How do you know?" she asked him, wonderingly. "Oh. I've known about her for a

curious sense of loss. For a moment'

fear had overcame pride; she had forgotten that Dick had taken his secretary with him. Now she turned hot with anger at him. . He could go away and forget all about her. Or perhaps he warned to be rid of her, and

thought that this was the best way to do it. She considered calling his office again and asking for the senior member of the firm. But her acquaintance with Mr. Lincoln was slight, and Dick had made such scathing remarks about women who mixed into their husbands' relationships that she turned from the thought at once. Yet she must have money at once. The rent must be paid, the bank must be pacified. She could ask her mother-in-law for money enough to tide her over; possibly a delayed check would arrive from Dick. She turned to the phone again and called the Brabant home in Greenwich. There was an irritating delay while

the operator got the number; then her

mother-in-law's butler answered the

phone. Madame Brabant had sailed

great bargain. The one real estate firm bought the place and put up a sign. Mrs. Parke had the use of her vegetable garden all summer. Her maid took a train to Los Angeles, where she was certain she could get a Job in the movies for the asking.

The moving in, the loss of money

which happened to more than one fam

ily in Wissakeagan caused Buch a sensation that it quite overshadowed the re-election of Mrs. Werner to the Thanatopsis club. .

"She just sneaked in," said the in-' dignant Maude, who wanted Millie to have the position. "And they didn't even re-elect Millie vice president," Cora added. "I call that mean I voted for her. Mrs. Brautfeld voted against her I looked over her shoulder to see." "Paula Jenkins told her that Millie had black-balled her on the first voting for her membership," said Maude. "So of course she had it in for her the first chance." She knew she only got in

because Mrs. Werner called a meeting specially, on the day Millie was busy

moving her mother into her house, so

she couldn't go. She did it on purpose I wonder why?"

"Jim says" it was Cora's favorite method of beginning a particularly

succulent bit of news that Tom Werner owe3 old Brautfeld " "Oh-h-h!" Maude forgot her friend's grievance at once.

faculty for picking up stray items of gossip was more highly developed than that of any Idle woman in the town. It was a curious household that Humphrey had settled upon himself. "Trouble with Buchanan is, he's been henpecked for ten years by one woman," was a summing up that occurred at Joe's one night, to the clicking accompaniment of pool and billiard balls. "Now he's goin' to be henpecked by three. Pity he can't get out in the woods awhile Hey, Fred, why don't you take Buchanan up to your sawmill next month? He needs outdoors and a little hard work with an axe, and no women."

Fred was busily gathering the colored balls into a triangular frame at

one end of the table. Joe Chambers,

at another table, was handing around little white cubes with numbers on.

seven times a week. "It's worse than Latin declensions or French irregular verbs," she remarked dolefully. "Never mind, there are few enough letters to write," Humphrey told her comfortingly. "It's only for appear-, ances that I have to have a girl here to answer the phone and look after orders." "Orders" had been slack for years. Humphrey had lived well, not by his day to day business, but by investments. Patty, having little real office work, took down the mending and sewing as her part of the household tasks, and washed the dishes afterjhe evening supper, so Millie could rest or visit. ' ! : -

Millie and her mother "ran", the house. At first, with a martyr's manner, Millie declined all invitations to afternoon parties.

"With so much housework and I even do the laundry " she would begin. -' But she found That in spite of everything, the work was over by noon, and there were hours and hours, as before

to be wasted just as industriously as

sue nau ever wasiea precious time. Millie went back to her clubs and parties. . But the supper was late, badly cooked, shabbily served. Humphrey once dared to complain. "What do you expect, when your wife slaves like a servant all day?" Mrs. Parke came down on him in rebuke. "And no money to buy nice things," Millie added. "I can't weed the garden

in the sun all day, so the bean3 have spoiled, and I have to buy them they might be solid gold, if you could go by their price."

Humphrey was silenced. He was

about to go out.

' The girls in your club had no authority to arrange your party for you, and so it is no more than they deserve to find that your mother objects to their plan'.

And, so, playing with her daydreams, she went back to town when the Randall's house-party was over. She would rest a day or two, she told herself, and perhaps get some new frocks; the weather was growing warm. Then she'd drop in and see Lee Craig, and do something definite

about the future. Her housekeeper opened the door for her, and followed her into the living room. In its linen slip covers it looked desolate. Sally shivered as she glanced about her.
