Now for the first time she real- fzed what it might lead to and it seemed that only one course was open to her. The adventure must end. He was Teddy Montrose, scion of Franklin Montrose of the Mont- rose Shipping Line and it was ob- viaus that he belonged to a dif ferent class of society. In her sojourn among the wealthy she was not averse to bluffing those she met but she did not intend to let herselt drift into the affections of any young man under false pre- tenses. A great gulf stretched betw en them and it seeme dreary expanses. Nevertheless existed and she must face the fact The depressing thoughts of the night were temporarily forgotten in the joy of the moment when Teddy | Montrose very punctually appeared the next day and took her to a dainty little tea shop in the wost end. There they found a cozy litile corner where they might enjoy their tete-a-tete. At first Teddy was rather inclined 10 be serious. Jacqueline liked him Just as much by daylight as she had at night in his evening clothes. “I should like to tell you somes thing about myself,” he said, with i straight face. “Graclous! sions?"” He nodded. “If you sagy to confess your past,” returncd Jagqueline sweetly, “I. hope you dow't expect me to do the same, be- | cagse I am not going tg,” Teddy waved his hand sketchily “Forget it,” he said. “You have no past.” “Haven't 1?
