The girl hung her head. and thought. “I. guess it was just in- stinct. it was a woman. wasn't it?" Morton assented. "I wish wo- men didn’t call you up." she went on. "I wish you didn't know any women. except me." She sank into a chair. twisting her hands together. "You're too fine a man to be going around with “men like that." "What makes you think they are ‘women like that?‘ " \ “i don‘t know it. I just feel it." she said. “Anyhow. they aren't wo- men that you take me to meet." He crossed to where she was alt- tlnz. and stroked her hair. “Dear little kid! 01‘ course. I don't let them meet you. They can't hurt me. But i don't want them to hurt you.” She took his hand and pressed it ngalnst her check. “It hurts me to have you with them at all," she said. softly. “Why do you see them?" Morton shook his head. “Do you know. child. that the question ‘Why?’ is the hardest question there is in the world to answer? "Nobody ever can tell. really, why he does n hing.

'Why?‘ It's a ques- tion that no man an mower." She patted his hand. and looked up at him shyly. "Maybe I can an. awai- it. myself." lb. said. "I think you see those women because they run after you.

The glass on the porch had been painted, to screen the guests from outside observation. At one end of this room. Nona and Morton were seated. "Didn't have time to dress for din ner." Morton said. "But i see you've dressed to: both of us." Putting his hand on her bare shoulder. hc slowly forced her to her seat. Nona worb a close fitting gown of green and silver; it gave evidence that aside from One narrow hand. there were no garments beneath. "As a matter of fact." Morton said. “you haven’t got on enough clothes." She glanced at her dress. and laid defensively: "This is the my every- body else dresses. Anyhow. i‘m not cold." Morton tilted back in his chair. "Do you ever read history?” "So." she said. "Why?" "It's a historical fact." he acid. "that through the ages. whenever men are hard to get. women begin to take ol‘f clothes. There have been a lot of times when men courted wo- men eagerly—and than women bunt died themselves up: were balloon- sleeves. and hoop-skirts. and wide rum. But it has aways been a sure sign. when women began to strip themselves. that the men were losing interest. Are men hard to catch?" His mile was quluical. The girl considered the question gravely. “You are.“ she said. "How about the other men?" he inquired. . “I don't know." Ihe began. Then she corrected herself. "Why, I sup nose I do, too. All the girl: are tallc ing about 'cntching' this man. or that man. Do you know that there isn't such a. thing as a augodoor Johnny. eny more? That is. except for u few young kids up from col lege. end 3 fat old man or two?" . “And do you girls really show so much of yourselves. in order to lure the men?" She ran her forefinger around the service-plate that lay before her. and looked at hlm with the dawn of an idea in her eye. "Do you know. I believe that pmtty nearly every thought a wo- man has is in connection with a man.” she exclaimed. "I never thought of it before, but I believe it's Io." it. She wt: starting a new and anl mated sentence. when her voice dropped abruptly. and her eyes hardened. She stared toward the en- trance of the room.

Her eyes, like Nona'a, were large and dark. and they swept ani- mstedly over the room. An they fell upon Morton. they lighud in non:- niiion. She waved her hand. and hastened toward the man and girl. “llel‘lo Harry! and Nona. dear: llow lovely?" lier voice was low and throaty.

From time to time she looked darkly at the other girl. and watched Morton‘s face as he re- sponded to Loia' badlnage. “Nona called me on the telephone. and said she had something to tell me." laid Morton. as they ended the meal.

At her apartment house. he walked with her to the door. With her face set. her lips compressed. and her eyes wide and blazing. she avoided his hand. and entered the door with- out aaylng good night.
