MHO'S WHO AXD W HAT'S HAPPENED Sally Brabant, a society butterfly, has been (riven a year's leave of absence by her husband. Richard Brabant, who hopes that she will learn something of life. She has a thrilling; flirtation with Keith Gilbert, who has always been labeled "Dangerous." and Is horrified to Wrn that, despite his position In society, he is a bottlegger. One of his men shoots a revenue officer, and Gilbert i3 held for murder. He escapes, takinjr Sally with him, but she is rescued by Xeal Calhoun, who gives her some frood advice. She finds herself without funds, and. not knowing where her husband is. assumes the name of "Mrs. Pemberton." and obtains a position as chaperone to Claire Finch, who has more money than manners.

CHAPTER LVI A SUBTLE CHAPERONE Sally looked up at Rex Mallory in surprise. He stood beside the desk for a moment without speaking, twist

ing his cap in his hands, and finally; out: "What's the idea, anyway. I wanted i

you to go driving with me you knew that, of course. Yet you dragged that fat girl in, and then slipped out of going yourself. I don't just get it." Sally did not reply for a moment. She did not know exactly what to say whether to make known her relationship with Claire, or to persist in the pretense that she had not cared (o go. She decided that the latter would be the better course; she had promised to do all she could for Claire, and If she deliberately antagonized

anything for Rex Mallory; he was a! nice young man, whose wealth would! not have gained entrance for him into the set in which she moved as Sally Brabant; that was all. But she resented being forced into the background by Claire. She picked up a newspaper in which appeared a large picture of Pats Lor-

ing, with a snapshot of her new husband, Gibbs Hunter. Pats was such a happy-go-lucky thing, so reckless with her own happiness would she just play at marriage and then pass gaily on to something else? Or would life rise up unexpectedly and crush her, forcing her to learn something of its more curious ways, as it had forced Sally to learn of them? Tomorrow An Echo From the Past.

pen into the ink again, dismissing him politely but unmistakably. "I'm sorry to disillusion you." "Oh, I'm not such a fool!" he exclaimed. "You must think I'm a conceited idiot." He swung around on his heel and started for the door, just as Claire stepped out of the elevator and hurried over to him. Their ride began with ominous silence on Mallory 's part contrasted with Claire's kittenish vivacity. She gurgled on gaily, complimenting him in every other sentence. He glared at the road, smoking furiously, and replying only when courtesy demanded that he speak. "You were talking to Mrs. Pemberton when I came down, weren't you?" she asked presently. "She's a nice little thing." . 'She's a very attractive young woman," Mallory replied with emphasis. Claire's open bid for his favor annoy

ed him, and he had not forgotten the veiled insolence with which she had ordered Sally about that morning. "I'm sorry she couldn't come with us today." . "Well, she evidently didn't think it was necessary to chaperone me when 1 was with you," Claire replied, with a coy upward glance that completely missed its target, as he was again

staring at the road. "She's just my! paid chaperone, you know," she went on, eager to put Sally in her place so far as this eligible young man was , concerned. "I can leave her at home ! whenever I want to." j Mallory turned and stared at her with unconcealed pleasure, to which J Claire gave a meaning quite differ-'

And Claire, likewise, was delighted. He was pleased to know that she could go with him whenever she liked, she told herself happily. She had really made an impression on him! . Mr. Rex Mallory Claire Finch Mallory she could see the name in the society colums of the newspapers, could easily imagine the position that would be hTS as his wife. She let the wings of desire carry her far into the future. "How'd you like to have dinner with me at that new road house that's just opened?" he asked her presently, as they swung over the brow of a hill and coasted down into a rjaiet, shady valley. "They tell me it's pretty zippy good jazz orchestra, and all that.'" "Oh, I'd adore it!" exclaimed Claira, clutching his arm with both hands. "When shall we go?" "The first of the week?" he suggested. "You'll have to bring your chaperone, of course it would never do for a young girl like you to dine alone at a place like that with a man."

"But I my mother wouldn't mind," protested Claire. She had no desire to take Sally with her. "Really, it .would be all right if I went with you." "No siree I think too much of you to compromise you," he declared, and Claire, flattered at his thoughtfulness, replied: "Well, of courst it would be best, perhaps, to take Mrs. Pemberton." Mallory wanted to pat himself on the back. Sally's indifference had aroused his interest, and he flattered himself that he had arranged this meeting very cleverly. Meanwhile Sally, back at the hotel, had given up the pretense of writing letters and settled down to face a new situation. Petted and favored all her life, she had never before been treated as Claire treated her. To submit to insolence, to take orders, to give up doing what she wanted to because it was her duty to do so this was a new

! experience for her, and one that she

did not enjoy. Not that she cared
