WHO'S WHO AD WHAT'S
Sally Brabant, a society butterfly, nas been Riven a years' leave of absence by her husband, Richmond 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 learn that, despite his position In society, he is a bootlegger. One of his men shoots a revenue officer, and Gil
bert is held for murder. He escapes, taking Sally with him, but she is rescued by Neal Calhoun, who gives her some - good advice. She finds herself without funds and. now knowing where her husband is, assumes the name of "Mrs. Pemberton," 'and secures a position as chapcrone to Claire Finch, who has more money than manners. They go to summer resort, where Claire falls in love with Hex Mallory, the son of a wealthy automobile manufacturer, who prefers Sally. Sally goes to dinner at a road.iouse with Claire and Mallory and in the dressing rooms finds a girl picking her pockets. The girl is the sister of the employee of Keith Gilbert who was arrested for shooting a revenue officer and has resorted to desperate . means to get money for a new trial for him. Sally promise sto help her. Sally goes to New York to consult Calhoun in the girl's behalf. She has luncheon with an old friend, Patricia Lorlng, a modern flapper who has recently eloped, and who is summoned home by a strange telephone call. Patricia's husband had been hurt in an accident; seeing them together, Sally realles the depth of the girl's devotion, and the change that love has
made in her. Sally returns to the hotel to find that during her absence Claire has been flirting with Ned Ralston, a young man of doubtful character whose acquaintance she made without an introduction. With Mallory bally goes to the roadhouse to see the little dancer once more and promise her aid. Mallory Is fascinated by the girl. During Sally's absence, Claire disappears with Ned and Ralston, and Stlly and Rex follow them to tho Rlno K'ittpn Inn.

time before, saying: "We may not have happiness '
but we'll have love!" . There were others there. Sally had telephoned to a few of Pats' friends who were in town or 'whose
summer places
were not far from New York, to tell them of the tragedy and ask them to come to the funeral service. Patricia had dropped out of her old world wi(th her wedding. She and Gibbs had had but little money, and had wisely decided to make no effort to keep up with their friends; indeed, they had been so content with each other that there had been no desire for other companionship. , And now those who had not seen the girl since her marriage stared at her slender, drooping little figure, sitting there beside Sally, mute with grief. The purple and green and red of the stained glass windows opposite her threw shafts of gay colored light on her sombre garb; in her hands she clutched a few of the roses from the
blanket that covered Gibbs coffin.
Sally had heard nothing from Claire ! wjtn me at Crillon?
Finch since she left the hotel. Today,
driving to the cemetery, she found time to wonder about her charge. Had Mrs. Finch gone into a rage when she received the announcement of Claire's elopement with Ned Ralston? . What had teen said about her, the delinquent chaperone? She had telephoned the hotel twice, but had been told that Claire was out, and she had been too much concerned with Patricia to make further efforts to get in touch with Claire. Patricia did not speak during the services at the grave, but only stood, ' clutching her few flowers, her head bent, as if the weight of the burden

the neavv ; regtaurant where she was to meet
Rex Mallory, she found it filled with people who had just come home from somewhere, and were joyously greeting people who had just returned from somewhere else. Not seeing Rex, she sat down on a wide, cushioned seat to wait for him. Behind her was a low partition of
wood and glass, on the other side of which were tables. And Sally, not consciously listening to the chatter of the two women who were lunching just on the other side of that partition, started suddenly when she heard her own name mentioned. "Sally Brabant?" one of the women was saying. "Nobody seems to know just where she is. But her husband's in town again now. His affairs went all to smash, you know my brother says that the family is cleaned out absolutely. He says that things began

Sally wondered at the calmness in her voice. "Gibbs and 1 we were going to have a child." She went on, before Sally could reply, with a poise that proved that al
ready she had responded in a measure to tfae demands that life had made on
her. Immature, -unthinking, she had!
been forced to face great issues, and she was doing it bravely. Sally fell suddenly helpiess beside her. Pats would have her mother and father to stand by her, of course. But Sally realized that they had never understood the girl, and that the very things which they had condemned in Patricia had been caused by that lack of understanding. And now their daughter must look forward into the
shadows alone. Sally realized, too, that she must begin to plan for the future herself. And when they had reached home and Patricia was lying down, she telephoned
.the hotel at the shore once more. Claire Finch, as before, was not in.

amazement "But she told me that! she and Ned Ralston were married j the night before. That's why 1 ! thought it would be all right for me to come to town if she was already mar- j ried to him', I could do nothing more." j "Well, she lied to you," replied Mallory, bluntly. -."But then, you know, what people like that are.

Patty's common sense came along at this point. . "But -why on earth shouldn't you? You have the money, why not spend it? If you carry that theory to its logical conclusion, you wouldn't ever

Patty said, still trying to keep the conversation on a light level.. "Then I should lose my position and then what would I do?

A CHANGE IN PAUL Chapter 63 - "Why did you do that?" Patty asked
In surprise. Paul was already running his engine. He leaned over now, as though the car took all his attention. ; "We'll have to hurry to catch the ferry," he said by way of answer.
"Why did you throw away those nice cuff links?" Patty persisted. "Paul, they were valuable you said you paid $80 for them. You shouldn't " She stopped. Why should she lecture Paul about extravagance?

"Perhaps not," answered Patty. "But I do love the jewelry shops and the shops with pretty and expensive clothes they dress up a city so, and someone has to support them! As long as you have the money, perhaps you ought to spend it. " . "I'll buy myself another $80 pair of cuff links, if you'll let me get you a pair like them to wear in that tailored blouse you have on- now." Patty laughed outright at that.
