The midnight train had carried ha out of her life, perhaps forever. 'She lay ‘motionless for'some time with a térrible sense of loss, then syddeniy she remembered that there was gtill his letter. It “was like a last link between tiem® that still' held, and while it held she could not.quite despair. She rang the bell, and- when tie maid came she asked for tea. “And please will you see if there are any letters?” Then she slipped out of bed and drew back the curtains. It was a lovely morning, and a faint new hope crept into her heart. Things were never so hopeless when the sun shone. Or were they worse? It was terrible to be alone on a grey, rainy day, but perhaps it was harder - when the sun.was shining, and the world was a beautiful place in which to be happy. She looked at herself in the mir- vor; her face was quite colorless and her eyes showed signs of tears, and Geprgie was consclous of a falot disappointment. -Surely - she ought to have grown. beautiful. since Ni¢holas kissed her? She ‘thought of Bernie; and then resolutely she thrust the thought aside; she would not permit any wgly memories to spoil her brief hap- piness of last night. + The maid came back with the tea- 4ray and two letters. Georgle pounced upon them fe- Yerishly, but one was a bill and the other which she threw aside was dressed in Clifford Asher's writ- 8. 4 Nothing from Nicholas. But he ad told her he had written. ““Are ;-u sure there were only these two?” she asked. * “Yes, Miss.” ] The little cold feeling was creep- Jng round Georgie's heart again; iqliat letter would have meant SO Hunch to her, and if after all it naver imame . . . ¢ ‘But it would come, of course it #would! She drank her tea and was dfessing slowly when Evelyn ar- rived. § ““Oh, so you are awake,” she said. #Po you know what the time is?” . Georgle had forgotten about time. {1 had ceased to matter since last 'll(ht. y 7" *It’s half-past eleven,” her mother ;u&d tartly. “A girl of your age jotght not to want so much sleep. iWhy are you. looking so washed m R 3‘0 rgie said. m. ere did you g0?" # ‘0 see a friend,” Georgle sald. b y know,” Evelyn said. & i~ There was a sharp silence, then rgie spoke.

Well, as it happens I gl HOITIN' HIM, B.G. knawp. this—this Nicholas Boyd, may | ask?” ) Georgie caught her breath. Was she to b2 thrust back azain into the uglinces’ of unspeakable things?, She waited in positive agony for her mothér’s next words. They came quickly. #1 might have known that you would abuse my kindness, and dis-/ grace me. Compromising yourself witha common film man, and a for- gotten one at that. After the trouble 1 have taken to introduce you to de- cent people, to run after a creature! of that description. Heavens only knows what Bishop will say.” Georgie almost laughed: it seemed funny to drag Bishop in when he and Bernie ., . . Kvelyn went on again, “Ireceived a letter from the man’s wife this morning, complaining of your friendliness with ker husband. She tclls me that you have been in the habit of visiting his flat. Is that 507" “Yes.' “And you can stand there and ad- mit it?” Evelyn stormed. “Have you taken leave of your senses, or is this the influence of the life from which 1 bave done my best to rescue you?” “1 @on't know what you mean,” Georgie said patiently. “You soon will know, when you are \ragged through the divorce courts as a co-respondent,” Evelyn answered cruelly, “Berpie Boyd, as the creature calls herself, will set all the notoriety she can out of the case, you mark my words. How you could so far forget yourself and what is due to me, as to mix up with such people, is more than I can under- stand.” “1 thought Miss Boyd was a friend of yours,” Georgie said. “A friend!” Evelyn cast her eyes up to Heaven. “Isn’t it possible for you to discriminate in anything? Everyone mixes with film people nowadays, up to a point, but when it comes to allowing a married man to entice you to his flat—a girl of your position.” EORGIE'S eyes flamed. “He did not entice me,” she said passionately. “I went of my 'own accord.” “Then you are doubly disgraced,” Evelyn was almost incoherent in her rage. “And what does this man propose to do now?” she demanded. “Is he prepared to face the scandal, «to stand by you?” “He's gone away,” Georgie said. Her mother laughed. “Gone away! Bxactly what 1.ex- pected; exactly what a man of his type v.ould do. Is it likely that he could care seriously for a girl like you? Gone away! Well, you had bet- ter go after him, that’s all 1 can say. I have finished with you from this moment.” Georgie went very white, “Where can 1 go?” she asked. “Where you like, anywhere. Back to your uncle, I should think, if he will take you in. It's the ‘only place you are fit for!” “Shall I go today ?” Georgie asked “You had better go at once, thit morning, before Bishop hears whai I have to tell him.” “Very well,” Georgie said quietly “But 1 should just like to say be tore I go, that there is no reason foi you to be so angry. 1 have den¢ nothing to be ashamed of, nothing that 1 shall be ashamed of ever.” Evelyn’s lips curled into a sarcas tic smile. “Is that so?” she said ironically “Then perhaps you can explain a let ter which came this morning from this man Boyd. Yes, I opened it,” a: Georgie gave a little cry. “It was m; duty to open it after what 1 havi heard, and if I wanted proof of Misi Boyd’s story. I found it in that let ter, A man does not write passion ate love letters to any girl unles she has given him good reason to.
