been for the manager's new secretary,
whose genial vigor and clever, hand
some face had interested Marilyn as
she never dreamed a young i?an could
Interest her. Yet he had said little to
the shy, pretty little girl who did not
know how to ''carry on" with him as
did the other girls. Only she fancied
he spoke with an added respect when
ever he addressed her.
No -wonder-Maiilyn smiled when a
laughing voice presently intfrrupted
her thoughts. "Miss Day, I'm going to
see you home, If I may have the pleas
ure."
"Of course you may. 1*11 be ready In
just a moment."
For a moment Marilyn forgot her re
cent perplexity. Mr. Everest was go
ing to see her home! What would the
other girls say when they heapd? And
she tucked the stra? curls under her
plain Ifttle black hat. It would be ex
travagant, but she wanted to look pret
ty more than ever.
She was too excited to see the ad
miration in Bob Everest's eyea when
he came over to her desk, and all be
said as they reached the door was "I
guess the moon ft waiting for us."
"It In a beautiful night," she mur
mured as they gazed up at the moon
shimmering on the cold walls of the
buildings.
^'It will be so much nicer when we
get out of this bare business section,**

"I hate It here?one can hardly
breathe, not hut what I like the work,"
lie added. But she did not hear him.
What would he say when he saw where
nhe lived? All the glow faded from
her face.
"I really enn't let yon come any far
ther," she be^un lately; "it's only a
little way," and then she stopped, for
they were Just crossing Into one of
.those beautiful old streets with stately
rtone-fronts that aeem full of that mel

the tiny, wektluT-bea?. .n little box of a
house, , she could stand the agony no
longer. She h.;d made him think her a
cultured, fastidious lady?what would
he think now?
"You've come far enough,'* hrr voice
shook, but she far?? Lira bravely. "Be

to?" She could not finish, but by the
sudden Jump of the arm In hers she
know he at last understood. The nlpht
air grew hot and stifling while she
waited.
"Do you really care?* His voice was
shaking with Joy. For a moment he
stared in her bewildered face.
"Marilyn, I thought you lived up
there, far out of the reach of a poor
chap like me. So I didn't tell you I'm
really on my own way home Just a lit

voice sent the blood hot through Ma
rilyn's cold veins. But all she could
say ?oun?led for the moment stupidly
irrelevant.
