stranded in London \rhcn the musical comedy in which sh> J * mg and danced failed, iv about to be evicted by her landlady. In d* operation she calls to two r< nge young men in (i car below her window that the will be down in a minute and so makes hn' escape.

Chapter Two Perhaps they wouldn't wait! Suzy's heart seemed to miss a beat as that thought came to her. Then she opened the door and there they were looking at her. t •'Pretend you know me—please," she whispered as she ran to them “Drive around the corner. I'H explain.” As she stepped In the car, she turned and waved a hand and flashed a smile at Mrs Beggs, who u staring at them from the window. "She's a dear—my old nurse," she said, “But she still fusses over mo as if I were a child, when I come to see her. She means well, but it's hard to get away from her even when I told her X was going to the races." The two young men said nothing. so she hurried on: "I don't want to take you out of the way. I'm going to the Hotel Milan." “Right on our way," said the handsomer of the young men. “Oh." she said. "if you'll drop me, I'll be grateful. I'd ask you to come in and meet my fiance, but he is inclined to be jealous and it would look queer, not knowing your names.” "Bm Terence Moore—Terry for short—and that other guy is Knobby MacPherson." “And I'm Suzy Trent and I thank you for the lift." she said cordially She knew they would think it

| off to collect his winnings on Golden Fleece. "I'd sworn to put anything I won I into my fund for retiring," Teqry . aid as they drove back to town. "You see, I want to leave the button fcretory as soon as I can - want to have time to work on my i .-tabilizer for aeroplanes but this : billing is too big to go into a savings account Part of it goes for a grand spread to my room- Mbs Trent and Mr. MacPherson to be the guests.” 8uzy gazed approvingly around Terry's comfortable home - like rooms and as for the supper- well, it was the first decent meal she had had in week 0 . "A toast,” cried Terry as they raised their glasses of wine. "To the luckiest day of my life!" “I'll say it is," said Knobby. “A hundred pounds." "I didn't m. in exactly that," said Terry smiling "rttill it is a part of it. That's why I have a suggestion to make. Knobby and I have had a conference he said, turning to Suzy, "and we've decided you are our lucky piece So we think you'd better stay here a while.” Before Suzy could do more than tare at him in amazement, he hurried on: "Now, don’t get me wrong. I just thought until you bring a little luck to yourself- -you can-have the bedroom and I'll bunk down here—or I could go over to Knobby's—” “Yes. you coithl," broke in Knobby without enthusiasm. “You don’t have to do that," said Suzy in a practical way. "Seems to be quite a lot of space going to waste here. Of course I did have a bench reserved in the park but—” "Then, it's settled," said Terry in a tone of iinality. Terry laid out n pair of his pajamas and slippers for Suzy and she assured him that she would be very comfortable But after he had closed the door behind him, she called: "Hate to bother you—but

strange phe did not ask them to go in with her and meet her fiance — but that didn't matter. She would n.ver see them again. She thought she had carried it off very well. Still, there was a strange note in Terry Moore's voice and a peculiar little twist in his smile, as he said, "I undei stand perfectly, I think." She waited in the lobby for a few minutes then cautiously went out a side door and walked down a back street until she came to a little lunch room. She had a shilling- and she needed a cup of coffee. She had just ordered it. when rhe heard a laughing voice say, "I never could stand the food at the Milan myself.” There was nothing to say and Suzy knew it. So she did the best thing there was to do. She burst out laughing. "How did you know?" she asked. “Oh, I’ve had landlady trouble myself, in my time,” he answered, “and so has Knobby here. At the minute we arc both working, praise be, but we re taking the day off to take you to the races.” "What?" she gasped. “Oh but you mustn't tell Vies—and you told that old hag you were off to Epsom Downs, didn’t you? Come on now time to be off Don't want to miss the first race.” Knobby was at the wheel and the roads were so crowded that steering the car took all his attention, but Suzy and Terry sitting in the back had no responsibilities. Before they reached the races, they had told each other about their ambitions and their hopes. Suzy looking at the clean-cut young man beside her knew her luck had been with her again when she had asked him t" hi Ip her and he thought she was the most attractive giH he had ever seen. “Want to bet,” Terry asked. “I’m going to place five pounds on Ragmuflin he's bound to win and pays two to one.” "I don’t like the name,” complained Suzy. "If that isn't like a woman," said Terry. "Now for names here's Golden Fleece He pays twenty to one probably has only three legs." "I like him,” said Suzy stubbornly. "But IJm not going to bet- I've got just a shilling and wouldn't have it, if you hadn’t paid for my coffee." "I’H stake you," said Terry and Knobby as one man. Suzy shook her head But she did consent to place Terry's bet on Ragmuflin when he insisted that beginner's luck would insure its winning She had never seen a horse race and she found it exciting, although she wasn't quite sure which horse it was that was ahead until she heard tho shouts and groans—mostly groans when the horses came in. "The charm failed." groaned Terry. "I should have let you do the picking.” "Ix>ok at your ticket." said Suzy calmly, handing it to him. "Well, I’ll be ” "Something told me to follow my hunch," «aid Suz^y, as Terry rushed

have you an extra comb in here"” , He called back that she would find one in the upper drawer. She i did and .-he found something else. ; Suzy was not without a standard of ethics and she did not mean to [ pry. but as she rummaged for the • comb a bank book fell open and she ! saw the entry. It was as of June 1 16, 1Q14 and the amount was four j hundred pounds and some odd shillings and pence. She closed and re- 1 placed th book. She took the comb ' and started to smooth her hair, i There was a thoughtful look on her face. The comb caught in a.snarl and ' almost broke. She laid it down ■ and began counting on her fingers. Yes, she was right—four hurrdrod ! pounds came to two thousand dollars. "Why, one could eat for years ■ and years and years on that," she said as she picked up the comb again. Terry had elept very well on the living room couch many times, but this night he was restless. He tossed and turned, he shook his pillow, he threw it on the floor, shook it again and stuffed it behind his head. He was just falling into a doze when he was started by a crash in the kitchen. He threw on his dieasing gown and ran to see what was the matter. He found Suzy on the floor, apparently liaviirg been knocked there by an avalanche of kitchenware and groceries which had fallen on her "Believe It or not," she gasped, "I wa\s hungry—couldn't sleepthought I’ll rummage for a bite— and tlie bite bit me, as it were. Sorry to have disturbed you." “That’s all right," he said, pulling her to hei feet. “I couldn't sleep either, but it wasn't being hungry which kept me awake. Help yourself I'm off now." Big Ben began to boom—it was five o’clock. "But why at this hour?" Suzy demanded. "Lots of things to do—can't explain now ” he stammered. "I shouldn’t have stayed,” said Slizy. , "You probably aren't comfortable on the couch.” , ‘‘The conch is fine," Terry snid. "But I want to get out. Eat everything in sight if you want—then go back to bed and get some rest I'll see you later on.” „ '', I / I0k at me." said Suzy firmly. Why are you acting like this? And where are you going at this hour?” "I m going—I'm going for one thing around to your landlady's and pay her what you ivwe her. Now, no argument—she ought to have her money- -and I am not really giving it to you by rights you ought to have ail yesterday's winning.-.’’ He banged the door behind him and rushed out. There was a mysterious smile on Suzy's face. , © 19JS—MB'jo-OoMwyn-Muyer Corn. (Tomorrow: Suzy and Terry I iiAtnesz something mystifying at the factory where he i-rorks.) j (To be continued^
