dismally. What's tlie kick?" asked Torrest calmly. "Tre whole thing's a kick." snapped Ronald, hotly. "Right where I live. See here, it hays, 'Following hlj most interesting lecture, Mr. Cannolei dined at th home of one of the fair members of the faculty. It :a rumored that another alliance has v cn forged by cupid between s-tage and colhs-e." Cupid, bah! I'm going to heat Charlie Zepp to a Jelly." "What for giving you the best l oe.-t in vfars?" "He's killed me dead," answered Ronald, and he groaned again. "iiok. This stuff might go all right 'Aith the rabble, but MLss Walters' ret is different. S;hes a lady, and this is an insult to her. 1 hurried out of my make-up and joined her in the box right afttr the matinee and she gave me the coldest stare l'e ever got. I tried to explain that I knew nothing about it, but It was no go. It hurts I tell you." "Why?" queried Forrest innocently. "You've got the notoriety now. What do you care?" "That's Just it," cut in Ronald. "I do care. Confouna It, man I like Miss Walters." "Oh!" whistled Forrest, in amazement. "So that's the lay? Well, what's the harm, then?" "Just this," explained Ronald, Impatiently. "Nothins.s settled yet You can't rush a matter like that. In the first place I've got to overcome her antipathy to stage folks. She's a bug about family so's her folks. And now this comes along and breaks me right up." "Don't say that," protested tho manager, and he laid a kindly hand on the young man's shoulders. "I know the folks. Just leave It to me. i ll lix it up." After a few minutes Konald left the ofhee and Forrest got busy. He phoned a near by restaurant, and three minutes later he had laid the case before Charlie Zepp. "But I was doin my hest,' whined Charlie. "How'd I know he had a mash on her? What am I to do?" "Just this." and Forrest bent forward and put his hand on the other's knee. "Got busy and write your head off. Put in about Cannoles being descended from English nobility you might slip a lord in tho family somewhere only do it up brown. Toll all about his wonderful college career. How he made the first team In football and leading his class in literature and science at the same time. Put a sneaker in about his chances to go in the diplomatic service, which he passed up so that he might take up the stage and uplift it. Smear U on thick." Zepp looked at the other, openmouthed and incredulous, then 'exploded,. "Rut. hang it all, chief." he demurred, "that'3 all hunk. It'll cost you advertising rates. That's expensive." "Hang the expense!" snapped Forrest, impatiently. "I've made a clean-up on him, and he's a flne young man. Go get busy and charge it to me." Zepp looked at him again, shook his head in a daze and backed out of the ofhee in a. daze. In the lobby ho ran into Miss Dwyer. "The heat's got him," he told her, tapping his forehead significantly and pointing to Forrest's office. "This press agent business is a tire-trap; ' never know when you're gonna get burnt." "Who's that damo across the way," demanded Charlie of Hazel two weeks later as they again sat in a box at rehearsal. Charlie was pointing to the opposite hox, wherein there sat a leautiful young girl whoso shining eyes and smiling dimpled cheeks followed every movement made by Ronald Cannoles on the stage. Hazel followed his gaze, then pinched him and whispered, eagerly: "That's her." "Her who?" echoed Charlie blankly. . "The teacher' she whispered. 'Cannoles girl. They've made up. Forrest brought 'em together. She's crazy about him. There's your ehani'c, you boob. Romance goos of it. Young, pretty teacher attends stock company rehearsals regularly. Object matrimony. Where's your originality?" "Uuried." answered Charlie, grimly. "Never a train for this romancing Ronald. Nearly got stung hist time. Now 1 11 wait till it's sure." "Well, what more proof do you want than that?" demanded Mlsj lawyer, in a whisper, and Charlie lo.-ked. Into the opposite box Cannoles bad crept quietly, and around Jeannette Walters' neck stole his two arms. Oblivions to their audience cpposite she- looked up into his face happily and kissed him. "I'm wcakenin'," confided Charlie to .Miss Dwytr, in a hoarse whisper, then he reached for his hat. "Guess F:i play safe and w.iit for the invit tMon, though. Rut it makes me awful thirsty." And he slipped out cf the bo hurriedly.
