Is ‘Mr. Boyd better? He was i1L.” { Hernle's pretty face hardened a Httle. 1 “I suppose he must be,” she said diginterestedly. “I really haven't beard anything definite,” and then she turned away as if anxious for the subject to drop. .. Bishop was looking at Georgie Wwith a faint smile, but he only said: “Do you think we can tear your !mother away now?” Evelyn was thoroughly enjoying » « 'herself, and on the way back to London she talked with great en- thusiasm. ““Such delightful people, all of {{iem. 1 never expected to be made 80 welcome. Didn’t you think they were most delightful, Bishop?” “Considering most of the money | in the concern is mine, they could| not very well be otherwise,” he an- swered. “Really, Bishop, to speak to me like that in front of Georgie,” Evelyn complained. In a moment she went on, “By the way, Bishop, have you fiade any definite arrangements about going to Germany? [ have several invitations to stay with peo- chapter 36 FAMILY QUARREL VER since she arrived at the stu- You said < ? ple, and if ! knew your plans I could G make my own."” Georgie glanced quickly at Bish- ©op; he had not moved or opened his €yes, but after a moment he said quietly: “Make what plans you like, my dear, 1 may not be going to Ger- miany, after all, but that need not {nterfere with you.” _“Not going!” Evelyn colored angri- 4y. “Really, Bishop, after racing me “hallt across the world for the specific irefison that you must go, to calmly fturn round and tell me you may ichange your mind. What on earth W@0des it mean, may [ ask?” “Simply that I may change my ymind, that is all.” i “Well, really!” Evelyn said again; i8hé looked at Georgie for sympathy. {“You are the most trying man I ver knew. I give up everything at moment's notice to bring you over e, and all for nothing. Have you P eilized at last that there is nothing tédlly the matter with you?” ¢ “Possibly.” | *Ialways sail you would,” she de- ed triumphantly. “Men are such ‘hables. They get a pain and they Ammediately think they are dying. JWell, I hops in future you will pay ‘ttention to me, instead of being so in¢onsiderate. If | hadn’t the pa- tfénce ot Job, I should have a great deal to say; you are fortunate fn JBdving a wife with such an even mper.” “Vety fortunate,” Bishop agreed calmly. "‘AhD now all my plang aré ypset, 1 suppose,” his wlle went_on. “Of course you wil] expect me to #tdy with you fa that dreadful hotel, .You know how I loathe hotels, even ,the best of them, and I had so looked forward to going to stay with the Hunters in Scotland.” “Go by all means. vénting you.” Evelyn flushed; she did not want to stay with her husband, but on the other hand sbe did not like to be told she was rot ecessary to him,| D f “And what do ¥ou suppose I can do, with Georgie?” shé asked shrilly. £ “Georgie can stay with me,” Bish- 1 op,said. %, There was a little silence, then » #Evelyn said nastily: “, “Well, you seem to have arranged ill yery nicely tetween you, Do you I am dot pre- want to stay with your step-father, Georgie?” “I don’t mind what I do,” Georgie (d. “I'll go back to Uncle Edward if you like.” Bishop opened his eyes suddenly and looked at her, and she added Burriediy: “Ot course I knew 1 couldn’t always stay with you.” 'eiyn said aggrievedly, “I could e you w0 Scotland, of course, but o dio Georgie had been trying-to| i | ubt whether you would be happy | with me.” “Or whether you would be happy th ker,” Bishop said.

But I never knew a girl like you. Men don't seem to interest you as they did me.” Georgie opened her eyes wide. “Someone to marry, do you mean?” she gasped. “You must eventually marry,” Evelyn said. “All girls marry nnless there is something very peculiar about them. When 1 was your age |1 had had half a dozen proposals, and I suppose you have fiot had one.” “Yes, one,” Georgle said with & twinkle. “Some unspeakable young man whom I have never seen, I suppose,” her mother =aid tartly, “Why did | you not tell me?” “It only happened last night.” “Last night?” Evelyn's face cleared. “Oh, then you mean that nice Clifford Asher? Well, that is not so bad. His father is a famous man, and no doubt Clifford will one day be quite well off. I am very pleased with you, Georgic.” “But I'm not going to marry him,” rgie said quietly. “Why not?” “I don’t love him.” *“Well, of all the absnurd reasons—" Evelyn said. OR ten days Georgie watched the | loping against hope that | Nicholas Boyd would reply to her | mail letter. She had found out exactly bow long the mail took from Berlin to London, but even allowing for a couple of days to elapse between the receipt of her own letter and the mailing of his it was too long, and she began to lose heart, “You're losing your color,” Evelyn told her one morning. “It makes you look old and tired. You'd better use some rouge.” “I never had any color,” Georgie said. She felt irritable. “I was al- ways brown, and I hate rouge.” “You're very bad tempered,” Eve- lym said. “Really, between you and your step-father, it's a wonderfu] thing I can keep my own femper at all,” She hesitated a moment, then added: “Have you decided what you want to do; in the future, 1 mean?” “While you are in Scotland?” Georgie asked, “I suppose I had bet- ter go back home.” “How you can call that unspeak: able place ‘home’ amazes me,” Eve lyn said. Georgie was a little perplexed by her mother's attitude; she had not expected that this sudden sense of “‘devotion” and “duty”, would last torever, hut neitber had she expect. ed it to end s2 summarily. She made a mental calculation and found fi)gt it was six weeks gince Evelyn descended on Edward Bancroft's house angd taken her away; some- times it seemed longer. “What would you like me to do?” she asked. Evelyn looked nonplussed; she was not used to plain speaking and Georgie often disconcerted her. As a matter .of fact she, had grown a little tired of the girl’s constant com- panignship, She was a woman of moods, and It had been an impulse of sheer boredom that had made her seize upon Georgie as a new distrac- tion. 1l speak to Bishop about it” Evelyn said_evasively. “I'm in a hurry now. Goodbye till tonight, and do put some rouge gn your cheeks.” As if the color of one’s face was the only. thing, that mattered, Georgie thought. She had not seen Clifford Asher since the night he asked her to marry him, though he had ring up once or twice It was another friend- ship gone into the rag bag.

To what use will this new-found leisure be applied? A practical view is to anticipate that the worker's first use of his etxended leisure will be recreation Idealists may frown, but it well to remember that the aver- age working man makes his own interpretation of enjoyment of life, or, in other words, the pursuit of | happiness, and it is, therefore, | lkely that with leisur jand means to enjoy it hfl will put |in more hours of wholesale di- versions from the serious tasks at- | tendant upon earning a living.
