Louis, the chauffeur, was tailing down the bags with their Initials D. V. A little maid In a blaek dress with a white apron came out of the house and picked up the hat box. Doris felt full of happiness. Surely she had come home. These kind pebple were ready to shower her with love. “Come Doris," said Mrs Du Vai Importantly. “At such a time, you must get plenty of rest. I will show you to your room." They went upstairs. Louis came In carrying her bags, and a maid Estelle hovered ready to unpack them. Mrs. Du Vai- sent her away with a brisk clap of her competent little hands. “She Is too tired now. And-she wishes to unpack her own things. She Is like me, n’eet-ce pasF She looked at Doris. “You wish to superintend your own unpacking?" *, “Oh ye*, oh yea." said Doris eagetly. She was hardly able to wait to see If the Inside of the tags might nf»t give her some due. “And Tm not in the least tired. I can do it now." "Oh no. At such a time In a woman’s life she must rest" Mrs. Du Vai looked at her with some mysterious light in her eyes that she could not urulerwtand. “You have had a tiresome trip. Rut look! Look what I have got for your room. As a special surprise." “Where? What?" “Don’t you see? On the dressing table?" In a silver frame the face of a young man smiled with an air of youthful seriousness. “Our Rocky I" said Mrs Du Vai tenderly. Instantly Doris loved bls face. She seised the picture and gated at It hungrily. C So this was Rocky. Rocky, her husband. She gave a long sigh of relief. For the young serious eyes that stared tack from the picture weren’t the same as the dark strange unhappy eyes that had looked at her from the tense face of the man In the cab. Mrs. Du Vai was briskly opening windows, a faint breete brought In the scent of blooming lilacs. “Maintenant." said Mrs. Du Vai, "you will nap. n’est-ce pas? You will have time

for a nice little alrapbefore dinner." 5 "Oh no. I must unpack.” She. waa rarer to explore the con tenta of her bags. Surely they would tell her eomethtnc about herself something about Rocky. "Non, non. Later, out TbraTEriellc will help you.” Protratlng was uselera. Mr*. Du Vai's fat Jeweled hand was on rhe eiderdown blanket that lay on the canopied Colonial t>ed. She drew off the gay patchwork counterpane quickly. and folded It neatly. “You like thia little bed? 1 had It put In here for you and Rocky. Thia la Rocky's old room—but the hed Is not the same. Come now." said Mrs. Du Vai. Doria was forced to hop Into bed obediently. It seemed the quickest way ot retting rid of her solicitous mother-th-law. | "You mnst not ret out of bed. now," ' warned Mrs. Du Vai She kiraed Doria, tucked the covers firmly around her, them left the room on tip-toe M If ! Doris were already sleeping. As the door doaed Doria threw back the corers eagerly. In a moment she | was fumbling with the fastening of , the smallest bag. To her joy It was ; not locked. Kneeling on the thick carpet »li» was looking inside her own "overnight" bag. examining a row of bort Ira with cloisonne lavender top*. Cleana- . Ing creams, night cream, astringent lotion, powder—she touched them won deringly—a round pink bar of soap, toilet water, bath salts; tooth brush marked with her monogram, tooth paste, nail file, manicure scissors: two sliver-backed brushes, a comb. They were utterly strange to her. Could these things possibly belong to her? Rhe studied the monogram carefully. The D was there, and the V. But she could not be sure what the third letter VM, There was nothing else except some neatly folded pajamas In orchid shades. Rhe sighed, examining the bag careful ly for any small slip of paper that might tell her something. But there was nothing. She opened the suitcase next. It contained two Jersey dresses, s linen suit, a leather Jacket In bright blue, two cotton sport dr rants, and an evening gown with a little coat to go with it "Like the wardrobe of a girl who expects to bo gone on a very short trip." she decided, "or else has sent 1 on her trunks." The last box contained merely hats and shoes to go with the dresses. Doris Dn Tai didn't believe In carrying papers around, evidently. The search had yielded the Information that yellow and lavender were her favorite colors and that she had undoubtedly been rich. Nothing more. Waa Rocky really her husband? She peers it again with strained eyes Into the pictured face. If he could only speak I If ho could only tell her who she was. where they bad met. Gently, gradually, she felt sure, she would come back to connection with her past If aba could only see him. It seemed to her as she looked Into those serious boyish eye* as ts she must remember. Surely the time be had given her the ring. Some of that might come back. She sat turning the rtng over and over and pondering. But It waa useless Mr*. Du Vai tappod on the door softly. An hoar had passed la these .Bwdhta .. ***** ' ‘ •

, “Come In,” said Doria “Oh. oh! (Test tree mauvals! Veree bad! You must rest At such a time i young girls must rest, and not lira I themselves out" Doris was getting rather weary of being told that at “such a time" she must take care of herself. The such a time seemed to he always. But she smiled. "I was just going to gat dressed for dinner." “Oh no," said Mrs. Du VaL “We liv»- very simply. Do not dress tonight. It is too exhausting at such a—" TH Just wash my face then." said Doria hastily. She disappeared Into the bathroom half expecting to be told that “at such a time" girls shouldn't wash. Then she smiled ruefully, ashamed of her Impatience. The drawing room was attractive with flowers and hooka Alone there for a moment Dorie looked al>out for a newspaper. Unable to find one./she turned on the radio. / Instantly an orchestra hlaredc_ An avalanche of jaxx poured into theybom. ■ j flooded the whole quiet couygryside. I Almost Immediately there was another and larger roar from the hall outside. Oscar Du Vai. his white hair disarranged. his black eyes rolling angrily. I rualied In. “Turn it off! Turn It off!" he shouted. A maxed and frightened. Doris ran to obey. As the sound was cut off. Du Va|.looked at her blushing furiously. I “I am sorry," he said. "I am very sorry. I did not think it was you. The I servants have orders never to touch the radio." "I didn’t know." said Doria. "I’m ; sorry." I Mrs. Du Vai had darted Into the 1 room. I “Roaring like a mad bull at our ; little girl," she scolded. Du Vai looked heartbroken. “Oh. 1 am so sorry" ' ; “Making noise like one hundred ele phanta and frightening our little girl at such a time!” Rut Oscar Du Vai now looked more frightened than Doris. Mrs? Du Vai turned to Doris “You , see what It is to l.|ve with an artist.

Yob can thank your star* that I brought up my son to he a buslnraa man. Oscar, cannot work with the radio golnc. Hr dor* not like to have the outride world <<>uie to him” “Yra. to\be told I must wash my teeth evrbLday. Me. I have never been to tlw<lenti«t in mr •'ll. wißl not have anything come Into the4iouse. No radio' No newspaper*! Ruch a man * Wo never play the radio except on Sunday afternoons when we love to listen to the Philharmonic concerts." ••Yes.” said Oscar eagerly. He looked at Doria as If pleading with her to un deratand. “The Philharmonic concerts are very nice. I like them very much." ' The evening passed quickly. Listening to the talk of the famous sculptor Dori* nearly forgot all about her own worry: She felt that If she had not already fallen In love with the son. she might find herself tempted to marry him anyway for the pleasure of having such a father-ln-law. "Rockwell St Gardens la a great friend of youra. Isn't he?” asked Doris when the talk had come to a little pause, “Ah, yea." said Oscar. “A great friend. We turned our Rocky for him. Hie work Is magnificent—magnificent. . You know It of course?" **Oh yes," said Doria, a little aurprised to find that she did. "I suppose," she said after a pause tn which she considered bow she happened to have this particular piece’ of knowledge. "that be is like you. 1 mean—every one knows something of his work." "Tea, he has become very famous. It Is hard to realise that. 1 remember hl tn always as a wlid craay one in Parts. We were young then, n'eet-ce pas? But now we are so no longer. And I—l have my practical little wife, my. fine son who has his own good wife, and Rockwell St Gardeas live* very respectably too—up la northern New England near the Canadian bolder. where It Is too cold for me." “Early In July we will visit him." said Mrs. Du Vai “We will go up to bls daughter's wedding." "Yea," said Oscar, "that la so. Beatrice Is to be married In July." Mrs. Du Vai’s voice often trembled on a note of ecstasy so fragile that overtones of despair and sadness could be heard beyond her joy. "Rocky will be back by then apd wo will all go together." Doris felt the tremor of happiness behind the mother’s words. It caught a response In her. Could It possibly be true that in six weeks she would be the normal, happy, remembering wife of Rocky? It must be so. She went to bed early. The sounds of buUftogs and crickets lulled her quickly to sleep. Her last thought was that she would wake up tn the morning knowing all about her past But the next day everything was ths sama She frit secure and full of happiness. She was In her right place, and Rocky's picture was ea her dressing table. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Mr*. Belle Widner. Mrs. Charles Wagner of Garrett called on Mrs. Ida Bowersox, Sunday.
