NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XLII Mrs. Judson left the piano when ahe saw her husband join Pamela and Stephen and came to the door AA amused smile played on her lips as the watched Pamela lose her battle ‘o keep Stephen there. For battle it was, but this time the fa- ther won. Then he turned to his wife. “Will you leave us alone for a while, my dear? I've something very impor-| tant to say to Pamela.” Mra. Judson came up and kissed | him softly on both cheeks. “I hope | you aren't going to let her keep that | pphire ‘aecklace,” she whispered. s positively a bizarre thing for a young girl to have.” Mr. Judson patted her on the shoulder. “You shall have one too, my dear,” he answered from the tullneas of his wisdom. Mes. Judson smiled away. “Well," Pamela said with a very | disagreeable inflection and seated herself in a ball on a satin damask and “trafled | Pamelt anawered with an impu- dent toss of her head. “You had né business to send Stephen away.

[ Pamela ahrugged. “Oh well, of course, daddy, but you know that you have the upper hand. You want me to admire you, don’t you?”" 1t was now Mr. Judson who was uneasy: It .isn't sporting to use your wealth to tyrannize me,” Pamela went on, in appealing accents. “I am. not trying to bribe you to| be eourteous,” her father denied | ide-eyed | | T have as much right coldly. “But you expect me to lie down and roll over when you say Rover.” “Pamela!” Pamela jumped from her chair, ran over and reached her arms up around his neck. “You're a holdover from days that are gone forever,” she laughed. “You scnd my man away and expect me to say, ‘Thank you father dear.’ It isn't being done, darling. Kids are people too.” Her father loosened her arms and put his hands on her shoul- ders, holding her off from him and looking at her unsmilingly. “Your man,” he said, and there was an edge of scorn in his voice. “Why don’t you say ‘my man and my necklace'? 1 am expected to pay for.” Pamela's indignation expressed it- self in a stamp of her foot. She jerk- ¢d her shoulders free and glared at her parent with open hostility. “I'm disappointed in you,” he told her frankly. “You spoke of admira- tion for me. Don’t you think T want to hold you in equal esteem, Pamela?” “Falling in love hasn't degraded me, has it?” she retorted. Her father met her gaze unswerv- ingly. “But buying your ‘man’ has,” he answered steadily. “You know he doesn’t love you, Pam. Anyone can see that. You're not a fool. You know what attracts him.” Pamela winced. “I'm sorry d claimed quickl this engagement longer.” “You don’t know what you're talking about,” ‘Pamela cried. “You've only met Stephen just to- day. How can you judge him “I'm not blind. He knows you're on earth, Pam." Pamela surprised him. “What of it?" she asked. “Wouldn't you be thinking of other things too if you were in his position? I don't expect him to think only of me. But if you have seen the way he behaved in . . in jail this rnoon. . - Mr. Judson shook his head. “And it you, my dear, had witnessed his anxiety over Miss Lawrence when he learned she'd been shot. . . " Pamela made a swift, impatient gesture with her hands. “Why shouldn't he be upset? He's a friend of her family and she was more loyal to him than 1 was — hut of course she knew about Huck Connor.
