A cab, then home, she thought. With Delphy Spending the day in Galveston and Lige away, too, she would have the house alone. She could cry then, even cry those queer animal cries which seemed to relieve the Delphys ‘and the cook’s wives. In the cab she tried to keep her mind from the scene she had left. She mustn’t break down until she}. ,, lad reached the sanctuary of her Toom. Must think of something.

Norman let Mathile call him a fool. He would bave followed me, but he stayed when she told him to, she thought as she opened the hall door gloves ob a small wrought-lron stand and paused to enjoy her work of the morning, purple iris in 2 blue bowl. Then, pretense thrown to the winds, she tossed ber hat to the newel post, ran to the sup room, threw herself On to the conch and cried, cried the queer animal cries of cooks’ wives. « A a Jady, don’t 4o that; don't ery ike that.” Norman ‘was’ there.

Suppose I pad in and make a pot of coffee. And we'd better have a fire here on | the hearth. There must be some- thing wrong with the furnace burn- ers.” In her room, Judith looked into | the mirror and laughed. Her face | dooked like a topographical relief | map, all mounds and hollows. “He didn’t obey Mathile,” she sang softly as she worked with hot tow- els, cold towels, cream, a little blue eye shadow. “Hasn't said a word about the other maybe, oh maybe Big Tom was | wrong...maybe he will see through Lampere before it’s too late.” ‘HE @onned a pair of boyish blue lounging pyjamas and darted down the rear stairs to find Worman, one of Delphy’s mammoth aprons | cry like that the stove. ~ “Have some scrambred-eges with | me?” he inquired cheerily. “Didn't | have time:for lunch .. . like your bacon crisp too, don’t you -.. and will you make some toast?” Judith maile the toast, disappeared into the basement and returned with @ @lass of jelly—“Grape, .nade it thysel?;,”" she announced proudly, turning the quivering purple mass into a dish. And thén the telephone rang. “Mrs. Dale,” came & voice over the wire, “this is a reporter for the Union spéaking. Mrs. Dale, we nn- derstatd your first purchase made with Bevins’ money is to be a dia- mond necklace.” Judith gasped, then held her tem- per on a tight leash. Clia had told Ler that “Treat a newspaperman right and he'll risk his job to give you the right break on a story. Get high hat and the fury the woman scorned brags about is a mere tem- pest in a teapot.” Judith laughed. “CU admit I'm going to buy rocks,” she-said, “but vot that kind. If you'll come down to Judge Morgan's office with me some time tomorrow I'll give you an accurate account of how the mouey will be spent . .. m0, not ; ‘ot. me, nor mine, but on the Bevins dam.

She wanted to heartache, misrepresentation, but realized the futility. “Not a thing uniess I am hired as a stenog-apher, then { receive a minimum salary, and living expenses If | go on loca- tion.” Later, her face brightened. “Thank you,” she said sincerely, and, stacl fw acolorfal atray of dishes on the tea wagon, told Norman of the con- versation. “He sald, be may get fired, but he'll try to write the kind of a yara ‘he's come to the conclusion I de- serve.” “Fine,” eaid Normaa, heartily, as they formed a procession and marched to his den.
