shadow of the Santa Cruz
mountains. on a tiny hillock a mile
' out. from. Los Altos.
As May's taxicab jolted along to.
ward the little clump of shacks that
had been hurriedly built there. her
eyes searched for the Buddha-like
figure of Lemuel Fishback.
Before the cab had stopped she
saw. him sitting on n'éamprhulr.

lax fatness. .Besido him, lolllng on
the ground. with a cigaret in her
thin red lips. was the world's high

tume of old Spain.
She saw the actress glance from
Fis'hback to her. and back again to

“How i ) you do. Mr. Fishback."
May said to him cordially. holding
out her hand. .
But Fishback did not sce her
.hand. apparently. He looked -ncr-
vously at Serena Smith before he
greeted May with a. brief "ilow d‘ya
do?" It was obvious that he was
afraid to be too cordial before
lSercna Smith.
With great difficulty he got to
his feet. and wrinkled his brow per~
plexedly. .
“Let's‘seo . . . you’re the girl I
want for my duchess." he said. rub-
bing his fat nose with his fat (are
finger. "Aren't. you?"
' flay admitted that she was.
“What do you mean ‘for your
'duchess’?-" Serena Smith suddenly
asked in a. thin. metallic voice.

“Oh. blah! There are twenty di-

lost a fortune on it!" ‘
"I know. i know.” Fishback said
"1):: think of 'Sand Duocs'! Three
years old. and still going good. . . ."
May did not wait to hear the end
sit the argument. She slipped away.
and started on foot down the dusty
road that led to Los Altos.
The way back to Carlotta's bun-
mlow was a long one. but May was
grateful for every foot of it. it gave
her time to pull herself together. to
think up a plausible story to tell to
t‘arlotta. To admit to her that she
had been "turned down." without
even a trial would be too humiliat-
ing! "
Let's see . . . she'd have to tell
her that Flshback had tried to make
love to her, or some such yarn as
that. Carlotta would undoubtedly
not only believe it. but be thrilled
by it.
IIE found the bungalow locked.
and a note from Carlotta fast-
ened to the wire netting of the
screen door. ‘
"Iliuy dear." it. read, "Dan just
phoned to ask me to have lunch at
the hotel with him. The key to the
deer is in the mail box. and there's
some chicken salad and iced coffee
in the refrigerator."
May groped in the mail box for
the key. There were several letters
in it. and she pulled them out. One
of them was addressed to her in
handwriting that she know! At the
very sight of it. May's heart gave a
queer little leap. . . . It was Ulysses
Forgan‘s handwriting.
"My dear Mrs. Seymour." it be-
gun, and May raised her eyes dream-

how much he wanted her.

"Why. he’- not. old! . . . Not. what

self.
as. thought of Utyua' tau. tho
smug. unlined face of u splendid
man in his prime.
Then she went. on reading the loo
tor: "When 0. man is so old u I

with every pretty face in Ilcbt. And
so i not to lot you know that when-

“This world isn't a at plus for
a beautiful woman to trot about in.

He had scratched that last Ion-
teaco out and then ind written it
again. plainly. "This world isn’t I

And after that. he had simply
signed his name "Ulysses For "
"Quite a flowery letter!" mid y "
to herself tllppantiy. “Didn’t in"
he had it in him to be so poetic!" -
But she did not feel tilppant. The
letter had moved her . . . touched
her heart. But May was not the
kind of person who disliked to show
any tender emotion. When she was
most moved she was most dippont.
That was her armor. -
"Waiting for me like an old arm-
chair. is he?" she asked herself
lightly. "Ready for me to fall into
when i get tired of everything else?
. . . Well. that’s a. comforting
thoughti
llowcver. for all her lightness. it
was a comforting thought . . . the
thought that someone out of the
whole world needed her. wanted her.

A WEEK later May was back at
-ork for the first time in ten
Years. Through Dan Spruuo
she found a Job. selling real estate.
She hated the musty little office of
"Ilarker and Barker. Real Estate
Agents." She hated to crank up the
ilrm's little ear. and take prospec-
tive buyers out to look at acres and
acres of prune trees.
lint mostof all she hated Mr.
ilarker. Senior.
There was a Mr. llarkc-r. Junior.
too a pleasant youth who
blushed every time May looked at
him. And so she looked at him a
great deal. it amused her to on
him blush.
But the elder Mr. Iiarker was no
joke. lie was a man nf fifty-rive or
there-abouts. with a red complexion
and bulging brown eyes.
"Now. then. Mrs. Seymour. we'll
take up the question of that Jones
ranch." he would any. looking as if
he wanted to take herrln his arm-
and kiss her with his his wet. thick
lips. And May would shudder in-
wardly. and try to nppmr business
like.
One day the inevitable occurred.
May had come to from lunch. and
had hardly seated herself at the desk
when the figure of Mr. limiter
blotted the sunlight from the open
door of the otiicc.
"Ah. you here!" he said in a gloat
log voice. rubbing the palms of his
large hands together.
"Yes!" said May with forced cheer-
iulness. She sprang up from the
desk and Jammed her little felt hat
down upon her head. “And just :0-
ng . . ." “
She tried to push put him. but
Mr. liarker blocked her path by the
simple method of throwing his huge
arms across the doorway.
May looked at him with astonish-
ment in her eyes. But she was not
astonished. Not at all. She had
known that something like this
would happen. all along.
“Please let me by. Mr. Barker!"
she rapped out sharply.
But. with a sudden adroit move-
ment. Marker had pushed the door
shut. and stood within the room.
alone with her.
"What do you think you're doing
. . . acting in the movies?" May
naked partly. But her voice shook.
For the first time in her life she was
afraid of a human being. She was
afraid of Mr. Barker.

(A. P.)-——Whito opposng counsel for
Leonard Kip llhlnelander and his

the continuation of the Rhinelander
annulment suit. a report was circu-
lated that the conclusion of the trial
would find young ilhlnelander near-
ly pcnnllcss. his fortune exhausted
by legal expenses
The New York World said today
that it has been learned from an
authoritative source that young
Rhinelundcr alone is hearing the ex-
trlai. His father.
Philip K. Ithlnclander. has not sup-
plied a cent in the suit and has
neither seen Leonard nor com-
municated with him since news oi
his marriage became public about a
year ago.
On May 9. 1924 Leonard attained
his majority and inherited $300,000
left by his grandfather. The investi-
gation preceding the trial. lawyers"
fees said trial expenses will use up
practically all of this sum. the
World declares. and he will be virt-
ually pennlless when the trial ends.
Investigating Mrs. Rhlnclander'a
ancestry. one investigator was sent. ‘
to Europe several times. This ex-
pense proved needless. as Mrs.
Rhinelunder admitted at the open-
log of the trial that she is part,
