6 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, APRIL 26, 1930. W R A SYNOPSIS: Heart broken, ill and facing poverty Jacqueline is in desperate straits. She gains some mental relief by a visit to Scotland Yard where she of- fers Detective McAllister the stolen diamond necklace. He amazes her by giving it to her as a present from the owner. It is an imitation purchased by a wealthy man for his wife when he was short of ready money. Tramping the streets, uncertain where to turn, Jac- queline is confronted by P. C. Rogers, the friendly policeman. He takes her home and surpris- es her with a present of nine pounds—explaining she won it on Naughty Boy. Jacqueline is joyful and she spends it spar- ingly but it soon is exhausted and she faces the humiliation she sought to aveid and plans to ask Keswick Dell at Byrams for her old job. It was either that or starving. ON HE by RICHA Before she had time to chang? her mind, Jacqueline went straight to Byrams. Through the showrooms ur the inquisitive eyes of the who recognized her despite the changes wrought by three month of struggle, illness and se vation, straight to the ground-glas; door with “Office” inscribed on it Within sat Keswick Dell. Jacqueline had walked out of b office after she had rejected I proposal and had been discharge: He was desperately in love with her, in his way, and realized that]| he had used the wrong methods to win her. 80 he trod carefully and concealed the song in his heart as she stood | before him. He stood up as she! entered, a mark of courtesy he had never shown an employee be- fore, and held out his hand to Jac- queline. “Very glad to see you again, Miss Grey,” he said, briskly. “Like old times. Always pleased to see an old friend. I hope things are well with you. Can I have the pleas- fire of showing you some of our latest things?” He knew well enough what she had come for, but considered it bést to play a waiting game. “I haven't come to buy anything, Mr. Dell, but to ask if you will be good enough to give me some work.” “Work! Of course I will!” replied | Dell with a bluff good humor. “There is always a job waiting for y here, Miss Grey. I was sorry enough to lose you. Can you start straight away?” “Yes, if you please, Mr. Dell.” “Good. What do you want— models?” “If you think I am fit for it." He looked at her appraisingly. “You have got a bit thinner, but | present-day modéls have fo be slim. The slimmer the better. So you'll do quite well. Will you live in as before, or would you prefer to live out?” She stammered and blushed. Dell JACOUELINE gt Hel had done a lot of thinking since!

You were always my daintiest and most charming model, and I am glad to get you back at any price, Some of our styles have never been shown to advantage since you left.” But Jacqueline was not deceived by all this, cleverly done as it was. Nobody knew b than she the price she had got to pay sooner or [later. Her innate honesty would |not allow her to continue the game {of pretense which he had started. |She faced him bravely. “Mr Dell—when I left here, and then came back and bought some dresses, I was rather rude to you. I am sorry I did it.” q “That's all right, v quarrel over like that. You had your laugh on me, and you played your hand well I appreciate a joke even when !xl is against myself.” “That is very kind of “you, M. Dell.

The soul of Keswick Dell was thrilling with a great joy. Gener- osity had scrved him well with Jacqueline, so he played the same card again. “I don't want to press you,” he said gently. “I want you to know that my feellngs are just the same. That is all.” “Will you give me a week to think it over, please? Will you promise not to speak of the mat- ter again for a week? I want to think'a little while.” “Yes, and I'll give you a month,” replied Dell. “I only want a week, Mr, Dell Then I will give you your answer™ “I hope it will be favorable, Jac- queline.” “I hope it will, Mr. Dell, because you have been kind to me.” s Lady Montrose found her son Teddy moping in the lounge. But all his old cheerfulness, and debo- nair ways had forsaken him. Teddy had suddenly tuined into a gloom hound.

You are still grieving about that sweet girl you told me of? I can never think of the name. French, isn't she?” “English, mother. A London shop name beats me. But it seemed to suit her, somehow. Yes, I am still thinking of her. I suppose I always will be until I find her again.” “You have heard nothing?” “Not a thing.” . Teddy had told his mother all about Jacqueline Grey, and even showed her the sad little letter which she had left behind, and had gained her sympathy. Teddy had never ceased looking for Jacqueline. He had even em- ployed detectives, but their efforts had proven futile. Her pathetic little letter had only had the effect of adding an all- embracing pity to his fervent love. must be received by The Empire ;mn later than 10 o'clock Saturday /morning to guarantee change of FEATURED NEXT WEEK Next week is “Better Homes” week in Douglas according to M Charles Sey who has charge of the observance here.
