It seemed an appropri- ate followup for the evening be- fore—the last part of it, in any case. In the first place, the rain which.

It was, in fact, nothing:short of a seluge, made all ‘the more unpleasant by a strong northeast wind. The wa- ter seemed to ooze out of the grount to meet the downpour ‘rom the'skies, in a manner pe- culiar to Long Island. Susan awoke to the sound: of the wind and the rain beating against a shutter. A moment later Mrs. ,Tremont tiptoed into the roomand’closed the windows. Noticing that Susan was awake; she smiled and said quite un- necessarily: “It’s raining.” “Yes, I know,” answered Su- san, stretching her arms prepara- tory to getting up. “You might as well sleep a little while longer, my dear. It looks like we'll have a hard day ahead of us. We'll have to think up something for the visiting firemen to do, now that the motor trip's out, I-doubt if any of them will be in a very happy mood, after their wild dissipation of last night.” Mrs. Tremont laughed pleasantly and added: “Aside from. our _ talkative friend from Nebraska, who evi- dently considers himself Heav- en’s gift to the ladies, I can't imagine any of them ever staying | out after ten o'clock before.” “You looked very lovely last night, Susan,” As she spoke, Mrs. Tremont picked up Susan’s din- ner dress from the chair on which it lay, caressed its gleaming folds, and hung it carefully in the chintz-lined closet. “You had eS didn’t . you, dear?

She would be careful not to mention that episode. She was- trying very hard to forget it herself. “You've never had much fun, have you, dear? You've always been too busy earning a living, I Suspect.” “Why, yes, I’ve had fun,” said Susan ‘after a moment's thought, “T’'ve never done much playing, if that’s what you mean. I’ve earned my living since I was eighteen. “That's nothing to be ashamed of. People who live in New York don’t do half the things out-of- towners give them credit for.

Like a_ little girl on her first party. I don’t wonder that Mr. Gellis is falling in love with you.” “Why, Mrs. Tremont! How can you say such a thing?” Susan made no attempt to hide her con- fusion. “Oh, but it’s true. I watched him last night. He| ber. scarcely took his eyes off you. I was watching you too. You're very fond of him, aren’t you? After all, you aren’t—well, a par- ticularly obtuse person.” Susan was shocked into silence. It was humiliating enough to’ realize that she had taken Steve Gellis’ small flatteries seriously, without having people know she’d fallen in love with him. Apparently the older woman sensed Susan’s dismay, for shé said, which was precisely the wrong thing: “And you weren’t\ at all naive about that, dear.
