SWEETHEARTS Author of “My Son’s Sweethearts,” “Confessions of a Wife,” Etc. Copyright, 1928, by Central Press Association, Inc. READ THIS FIRST: Lynda Fenton, daughter of John | Fenton, a periodical drunkard, has | just obtained her first job as a typ- ist in the office of Armitage & Soon. | Hev father continually harps upon Lynda's mother, how she ran away with & man who had more money than he, and insists every woman has her price, Lynda’s one friend and ion is Lavid Kenmore also known poverty. Ralph Armitage has already “spotted” Lynda, and the second day in the office she becomes ac- qualnted with Emily Andrews, who cultivates her in order to know Da- vid hetter, as she cherishes a secret fondness for him In girls' gives what she terms down on the new stenog.” Stanhope champions Lynda work that evening Emily duces 1ynda to “Lunch Is made to feel uncomfortahle. er she meets David on the home NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY | CHAPTER VII SPAGHETTI AT MOTHER MONTE'S Suddenly Lynda heard David say: | “You were foolish not to come to| luncheon. Tl bet you are hung right now. I'm sure haven't | had a thing to eat all Answer | me. Have you?" i Because she did not know how to | lie to him, I.ynda raised a scarlet | face and whispered: | “Yes, T had some coffee and a | piece of toast this morning.” “Have you anything in the house for your supper?” | ‘I don't know, T told father last night that he would have to bring | home some things, as we were even | out of bread. He knew T didn't have any money, and he'll surely bring something if he comes home." David took hold of her arm and | drew her into a small Italian res- | tanrant. “Here's Mother Monte's " He seated her at a table and, | without giving her a chance to oh- ject, said to the jolly-faced woman behind the counter | “Two spaghetties™ In a moment two great plates of steaming, fragrant food was set be- fore them. “You shouldn't have done this, said Lynda, but already a portion was on its way to her mouth. She was ravenous. “I have not enough money to pay for my share, David, and you've already fed ong girl today.” “I know it.” he answered, honest- Ily. “That's the reason I'm making ing you eat before you go home. If your father forgets the grocerles, you'd have nothing to pat tonight, and you couldn't go back te the office tomorrow hungry. Lynda felt no shame that David should know she was hungry. They had gone hungry together too many times when they were children, and had shared each other's food when they had it, but she didn’t want him to spend his money on her, as he had done on Emily Andrews, She hadn't realized that guring the last two vears David had stead- ily gone on making a higher salary, until today, as salesman for Armi- tage & Son, he was looked upon as a good catch for all the girls who knew him by sight, and a better catch by those who knew him personally. “Lyn, don't you know that 'm getting fifty dollars a week and a honus? I got another raise last pay- da She started in surprise, for she hadn’t known it. In the excitement of her graduation. and his taking his first job on the road, they hadn’t had a chance to talk things over as usual. She was just going to say, how- ever, that he must not spend any of it on her, and that as soon as she got her first check, she would repay him, in part, the money he had loaned her from time to time, when he said: “Lyn. 4 1 have quite a lttle money in the bank. and 1 want you to take one hundred dollars, which ought to tide you over nicely until you get vour first check, then you | can start giving me hack a little cach week, if you wish.” With no idea that even in these lineral davs a girl doesn't money from a young man. lLynda took it as a matter of fact that David should offer to help her out It had come to her with erushin force, all this long. hungry ter- noon, that unless she had a small | sum of money now, it would he im- possible for her ta keep an for two weeks, She was pretty her father had azain lost his joh, and compan- who has the rest room the Emily | “low Claire After intro- * She Lat- | way the aceept | snre neither money | house, but last night I imagined he | but today, all the time he listened to | from which the words came.

Before | David had known Emily Andrews he would have accepted it in kind; Lynda, he never ki wondered why sed the sweet red David Kenmore caught watching the iittle dimples come and go at the corners of Lynda’s mouth, as she talked. He found that he had all he could do to keep from touching them, they were so elusive and fascinating. When Lynda had eaten string of spaghetti with a consum- ing appetite, she asked Mother | onte for a sheet of paper and pen | and ink. “What's the idea, Lyn asked David, although he knew perfectly well what she had in mind. “I'm going to give you my note, David,”—and she wrote carefully “For value received, T prom- ise to pay David Kenmore, One Hundred Eighty-seven Dollars and fixty-seven Cents, two years from this date. himself | the last (TO BE Theft of Jewel Case Roston, July 10 (UP)—Theft of a cwelry salesman’s sample .
