June 1.——Sesled bids to rtho military reservation known as Fort Greene. located on Easton's Point in the residential sec- tion of this city. have been called for by the Quartermaster General of the Army at Washington. D. C. Nineteen thousand square feet of land on the water front are involv- ed in the sale. bids for which must reach the War Department not let- er than June 2!. ‘ Fort Greene, named for the fa- mous general of the War of Inde~ pendance. was deeded to the United states in 1790. subject to an annual payment of "three ounces and twelve psnnywelghts of coined silv- er." In ms the heirs of the original owner released all rental rights to the War Department. Since 1891. when the reservation was turned over to the city of New- port for use as a. public park. Fort Greene has had no military value. Its proposed sale is in line with the War Department's policy of dispos- ing of abandoned forts and reserva- lions.

MILBURN. to whom a baby girl has just been born. think they are lusti- tied in buying a home of their own what the young advertising agency in which John is a part.- per lands an important new con’ tract. John does all the arm's adver- tising copy writing. His part- ner. NATHANIEL GRAHAM. takes care of the business de tails. Previous chapters told how John. while Fay was in the hos- pitsl. nice NELL ORME at a swimming party and was attract- . ed by her beauty and puaaled when PAT FORBES. his host. told him Nell was having trouble with her husband. Forbes. who . has a wife and three children. hints to John that be is dissatls led with his own marriage.

She sees the remains of cigarets and.» as Fay tells John. she fairly sniffed. > John hopes she won't be as bad as Mrs. Bixby. a gossip in their old neighborhood. and Fay says she certainly hopes Mrs. Blodgott won't get hold of the rumor Mrs. Bixby circulated. , NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY (The names and situations In this story are Setitious.) CHAPTER XIII ICH one was that?" John asked. "Don’t you remember?” said Fay. "You hinted one time that I had helped give you a start in business and she circulated the re- port that you had married me for my money." - “Lord. yes.” he grossed. “Well. i suppose I was really to blame there. That comes of trusting any confi- denoes at all to your neighbors. I should have known better. Fay. don't ever tell this Mrs. Blodgett a thing. Not a thing." Fay paused in her work and its- tened. “Was that Judith I heard?" she asked. John cocked his ears. "Believs it was. Thinkrilrunupandsee what's bothering her." “I don't know what's the matter with her." said Fay. “She’s been coinplsining all evening.” John went upstairs to the our sexy. Judith was lying on her back. flaking her feet viciously and squall- iag as if possessed. “Hers. now. what's the inattesr’ John demanded as he picked her up. “What's the big ideaf Don't you realise you’re making an awful lot of noise for a little girl!

"handing her the baby, “I'll call Dick Meno- fee." and he grabbed for the tele: phono. Young Dr. Menefee was over‘in jig time. “Wall. What’s the trou- ble?" he demanded cheeriiy. "Don't tell me this young lady is getting temperamental." He leaned over Judith. pressing with his fingers on her stomach. lis- toning to her heart. “She's got a little indigestion. that's all." he announced. “Colic?" John asked. and Dr. Manatee laughed. "Call it that if you wont." be answered. “Truth of the matter is. she has gas on her stomach.” ' He turned to Fay. “Do you put bicarbonate of soda in her orange juice?" Fay said she hadn‘t been. "Well. you might do it for a while." said the young doctor. "it will help a lot.” He left in a few minutes. first issuing a few quiet instructions and asking a terse question or two. Judith slept soundiessly the rest of the night. 0 O U A week later there was a telegram from lifrs. Turner. Fey‘s mother. an- I v nouncing her plans for visiting them. and John met her at the train when she arrived in Chicago. a buxom woman with gray‘ hair and a large fund of quiet good humor. She took complete charge of Juo dith. even to wheeling her outdoors in her carriage. and Sky. relieved of such a large part of her work and cheered by her mother's presence. grew increasingly gay with each day's. passing. “Mother." said John. “you're spoiling us. I don't know what we'll do who you leave. How about stay- ing?" ~ "Fey's father is half-crazy now." she laughed. "He'll be ready to shoot me if I don't get back soon.“ A week before Mrs. Turner had planned to return to. Washington the baby contracted whooping cough. How she ever caught it was-s mystery. for neither Fay nor John knew of any contagion within miles of their neighborhood. But one night John stirred vaguely in his sleep and awoke to find Fay leaning over the baby's crib and to hear strange gag- ging sounds from Judith. . "I koow'whst that is.” John re- marked grimly. dinging his hthoobs amt him. His face had turned w e. ‘ " Willi. is it?“ Fly llksd anxiously. him in astoni..hmant. “Did you um.- \ Waynes are giving next week for Clifton Lana That's the man Clara is engaged to marry." "Clifton Lane!" John repeated with a comic frown. “Sounds more like a. street than a man. Oh. well. what‘s in a name. as Shakespeare says? i once knew a man named Beersack. and he never touched a drop in his life." "He must have money. the way Clara talked." Fay went on. "It seems he has his own brokerage business in Milwaukee and belongs to the Athletic Club and a couple of golf clubs. Clara is counting on having a wonderful time. I know." of which he had had forethought enough to bring with him. “A few more of these treatments.’ he told Fay and her mother. "and she'll be well before you know it." 'Fay's mother was wonder-struck. Whoomng cough inoculations were beyond her. “When I was a child." she told Dick hienefee. "we just had to let it run its course. They didn't have all these fancy remedies then." “This is really wonderful." the doctor told her. “if you catch the ”He comes pretty well press- disesse in time." agented. all right." was John's final John spoke. “We'll get a nurse, comment as he turned his attention "How’s Judith been to- te dinner.

I O O “ They went to the Waynes' party. and John was vaguely annoyed. when he met Clifton Lane. at the lther's easy airs. his faultless groom- ng and the sharp waxed points of ill black mustache. There was . ridge. and John drew Lane for an lpponent. He was an expert player md John. who was only fair. was at his worst that night and was doubled three times by Lane and set each time. "I'm horrible tonight.” said John -lpologetically to his partner after the third disaster. and Lane said. "Yes?" Another thing that irritated John was Lane’s habit of saying “gsd.u it seemed to pop out of him with ‘very sentence. John also got the , mprcseion from Lane's conversation . hat he shot eighteen holes of golf 1 the low eighties. . Fay asked Clara. “When are you ;uing to get married?" “Ob." Clara answered carelessly, "some time in the winter. I guess. Not too soon after Dick's and Han caret's wedding." ’ "Poor Dick Monefee." said up to John on the way home. “I'm afraid people will think that Chra. and not Margaret. is leading the real prise.” "Oh.
