With me you can be just as mod- ern as you please.” “I intend to be,” she told him “But—how can I begin?” Tony smothered a yawn. “Suppose you begin by spending the night here in my flat?” he stiggested. “These clothes of yours show no signs of drying.

Never mind about putting on wet clothes. No one will notice what you have on at this hour in the morning. By the way, a pal of yours called about an hour or so ago, a tall, handsome fellow, with a black eye, He seemed mighty upset over your conduct tonight. T'll tell you the rest when I see you.” “That was Brynmor,” Mary Lou gasped. Her amazement was tem- pered by a certain pleasure that Brynmor had bothered to call at Jay's flat. Could he have been so bored with her, after all? “Now, hurry home like a good child,” said Jay. “I'll try to stay awake until you get here.” Tony didn't demur when Mary Lou told him the outcome of the conversation. ; “I heard you glving me a good character,” he grinned. She didn’t reply. They gathered her damp clothes into a bundle, and Tony called a cab. “At any rate,” murmured Tony, when they were almost to Chelsea, “if you hadn't fallen Into that bath “How did you fall into the bath? tub we wouldn't have reached our agreement about my taking you to impress Aunt Ethelberta.

The taxi drew up, and he helped her out. It was almost daylight. “You may not be the latest word n girls, Mary Lou,” Tony said sleepily, “but I'll say this for you. You're a good sport.” She flushed. She stammered something unintelligible, waved a hasty cheerio and fled up the stairs ‘o Jay's flat.
