Do you want me to go to Scotland, or to go back to Uncle Edward, or what shall [ do?” He laughed. “Your mother does not want you in Scotland,” he said. Georgie opened her eyes wide. “Why not?” she asked. “She has other fish to fry,” he answered; he came a step nearer to her. “You look such a child,” he sald. *“And yet you should be . old enough to understand something of life.” He paused a moment, then asked: “Do you imagine that your mother and I are contented with one another?” Georgie shook her head. “I don’t know.” He eyed her steadily. “Would you prefer to stay with your mother, or would you care to come to Germany with ane—always.supposing I go?" The hot color raced to her cheeks. “You sald you were not going,” she breathed. “I have been advised that it is— well,: unnecessary,” he answered. “But [ am not a man who is funl]i of taking advice, and anyway you have a0t answered my question.” “I would rather come with you, | of course,” Georgie said breath- | lessly. “For my sake, or for the sake of | someone who is already there?” he | asked, with faint frony. “For both,” Georgie said. “Humph: Well, we will see.” “When shall we go?” Georgle asked; her eyes: were bright with excitement, all her lassitude and ‘weariness had vanished.

So- the vague something” which she had: been: waiting had come at-last! That was the one thought in Georgie’s mind; there ‘was something to look forward to. Germany shone before her like a| bright star; making everything else tado into insigunificance. ‘She would see Nicholas; of course she would see him! Her feet seemed ‘to dance for sheer happiness, and #¢ Evelyn had seen her at that mo- ment she would ne' longer have ‘needed to talk about rouge; Geor- igle's cheeks were rosy with happi- wess. She had told Nicholas that she had grown better looking! Would ke think so? Or would he be disap- ‘pointed . #You are a very dear little girl, Robin,” so he had onee said to her. Life was being kind at last; she turned sharply round as someone tapped at the door. “Come in,” Georgle said cheerily; at the moment she loved everyone. Life was beautiful. One of the hotel pages entered. “A young lady to see you, Miss. She said she was sure you would see her.” “Who {s it?” Georgie asked. “Miss Taylor, Miss.” Nelly! “Oh, show her up,” Geor- gle said, She had not seen Nelly since she took up her new work with Bernie Boyd; had not even heard how she Mked it or was progressing. it would be fun to see Nelly, and tor | Serial by RUBY M.

Didn’t you know?” Georgie shook her head; could find no words. “I heard her telling one of her young men.” Nelly said with dis- dain. “Said it was a nuisance, and that she didn’t want him hanging round her.” Georgie moistened her dry lips. “And is he alright?” she asked at last.
