That, thought Susan, had a right to be upset over this new development, it was she. “If you'll show me Mrs. Tre- mont’s room, I'll run up to see her right away.” They were inside the house now, and Susan could see the broad stairway at the end of the hall. “There may be some- thing I can do for her.” Mrs. Elton sniffed, but before she could answer, John Bates stepped in front of Susan, bar- rig ber way. : ‘ou'll do no such thing, Su- "he announced in a voice that dared her to defy him. When she tried to brush past him, he added in a more reasonable tone: “Mrs, Tremont doesn’t like to be bothered when she’s suffering from one of those—er—those at- tacks.” He turned to the housekeeper, who was watching the little scene with deprecating eyes. “Keep this squirt out of rs, Tremont’s room,” he commanded her. “Lock the door. Hide the key.” “T've locked it,” said the wo- man through taut lips. “I’ve also locked the wine cellar.” John dropped his hands to his sides in a gesture of futility. “If ou'll give me Mrs, Tremont’s ey, Mrs. Elton, I'll go up and have a talk with the lady,” he said. “Perhaps I shall be able to straighten her out.” “It's the first room on the left at the head of the stairway, young man.” Her voice implied that she was washing her hands of the whole thing. At the foot of the staircase John aused and said to Susan, who ad followed him: “Sorry, Susie. It’s just one of those things. Mrs. Tremont had had a hard life. 1 was hoping I could help her, and you too. She never drinks—well, almost never. And she swore she’d give up the stuff if I'd help her get this job. I suppose the wine cellar was just too much for the poor soul.” Susan managed a feeble smile. “Would you like to be shown to your room now, Miss Brown?” By MURRAY SINCLAIR AP Newsfeatures qos.

And yet, Susan found herself inking, it was definitely not a lace that had known love an laughter and genuine living. Mrs. Elton opened a door at the end of the hall and Susan fol- lowed her into the room which had been assigned to her. For a moment Susan stood speechless, staring about her in wide-eyed delight. . “It’s heavenly—perfectly heav- enly!” she exclaimed, when at last she could speak. “And I want to thank you for all you’ve done, too.” Impulsively, she caught the astonished Mrs. Elton by the arm and kissed her soundly on the cheek. The woman looked shocked, but a little pleased. Then she stepped back into her former disapprov- ing role and there was a queru- lousness in her voice when she added: “Tl go now. I suppose you'll be wanting to see the rest of the house and the grounds?” Susan nodded, although she was sure she would much prefer stay- ing right there in that beautiful room for the duration of the house-party. “Well, I’m afraid you'll have to look around for yourself. Mr. El- | ton and I have our hands full There are no servants, only a maid who’s not worth her salt. We hadn’t expected this—er—this deluge.” Susan tried to think of some- thing placating to say, but all she could think of was, “I'll unpack my things and get on some fresh clothes. Then when Mr. Gellis comes, he can show me the grounds.” Evidently that was the wrong thing, for Mrs. Elton was openly belligerent now. “Mr. Gellis.” She fairly spat out the name. “I’ll have something to say to. that young man when he arrives.” She consulted her wrist-watch. “He should be here any minute now.
