“Lordflsee. I wish you could have
been behind a screen at that lunch-
eon. Thirteen old tombstones in
feathers and net collars—seven or
olxht of 'em, anyhow—colonial pro-
files and lorgnettos. and all
looking as if they had been hit
in the stomach. l at one end
of the table looking like the Witch
of Endor. Mary at the other look-
ing like one of our granddaughters
and trying to be animated and inti-
mate. i forgot my own tragedy
and haw-hawed three times. She
looked almost apologetic when she
called us by our first names. espe-
cially when she used the diminu-
tive. Polly Vans. who's got a head
like a billiard ball and has bowear

wig for decency's sake. drew her.
self up twice and then relaxed with
a sickly grin. All the same
i don’t think Mary felt any more
comfortable or liked it much better
than the rest of us. Too much like
reading your own epitaph an a
tombstone. i thought I saw her
squirm.”

"How did they take it individ-
ually?" Clavering hoped she was
finally diverted. "Were they Jeal-
ous and resentful?”

"Some. Elinor Goodrich had al-
ways been too besottedly fond of
her to mind. Others. who had been
merely admirers and liked her.
wore—well. it's too much to say
they were enchanted to see Mary
looking not a day over thirty. but
they were able to endure it. lssbel
Lawrence thought it downright im-
moral, and Polly Vane looked as if
she had fallen into a stinking mo.
race and only refrained from bold-
ing her nose out of consideration
for her hostess. i think she feels
that Mary’s return is an insult to
New York. Lily Tracy was pain-
fully excited. No doubt she'll be-
gin collecting for the Vienna poor
at once and finding it necessary to
go over and distribute the funds in
person. Mary lost no time get-
ting in her fine work for Vienna ro-
lief."

"But they'll all stand by her?"

“Oh, yes, she's Mary Ogden.
We'd be as likely to desert New
York itself because we didn't like
the mayor. And she'll need us.
It's the young women she'll have
to look out for. My Godi How
they'll hate her. As for Anne
Goodrich and Marian Lawrence—"

Clavering 'sprang to his feet.
”Who's that? Jim?"

A man was running up the stairs.

“Janet.” {aid Mrs. Oglethorpe
grimly. “She's out."

‘Thsre were only four young men
standing about a table covered
with the remains of a chafing dish

came through the partition Young
Fan-en was leaning against the
table. his large moon-face pallid
with fright. As he recognized
Oglethorpe and Claveriug fright
was wiped out by astonishment
and relief.

“Thought you were the police.”
he muttered. "l'hough they've got
no business hers—"

“I've come for Janet. Go into
that room and bring_her out at
once." 1

"Janet ain't here. Haven't seen

Fan-en. who was very young and

where girls of his own class were
concerned. burst into tears. “You
wouldn't. Mr. Oglethorpe! I swear
to God Janet's not there. But—
but-some of her friends are.
They wouldn’t want you tov see
them.” , His mood changed to
righteous indignation. “What right
you got breaking into a gentle-
man‘s rooms like a damned police-
man? It’s an outrage and if I had
a gun l’d shoot you. I'd-l'd—"
And then he collapsed on a chair

stars. “You dare make a move
and I'll knock your heads together.
Just remember that you're drunk
and I'm sober." ‘

He went into the next room. and
immediately saw several forms un-
der the bed. He reached down and
jerked them out by their legs.
They rolled over. covering their
faces and sobbing with fright.
Emancipatod as they were and dis-

“Searched the house from top to

"Well. she can't roam long: legs

They went out and found a pub

opened the door of his little hall.
“The fool maid has left the light

There was a wild shriek from a
corner of the room. a slim girl
leaped across the intervening space
like a panther. and flinging herself
upon Oglethorpe. beat his chest
with her fists. "You damned old
