Rosemary flitted about like a will-o'-the-wisp and finally went j to the window, where she stood looking wistfully out. Supposing that Jane were right and her father came back out of the ocean like the fathers of little girls in story books, this might be a i very likely place for him to land, because there were such lots of sea, beautiful, sparkling, blue sea. Of course ho couldn't know that Angel and she were in this town, because it was only about a month since they came. It must be difficult to hear things in ships, and ho might j go away to look for them somewhere else without ever finding them i here. Little thrills of excitement running from Rosemary's fingers to her . toes felt like vibrating wires. What could she do Jane had said if he came at all he was sure to como on Christmas eve, according to the habit of fathers, and it was Christmas eve now. By and by it would be too late, anyhow for a whole year, which was just the same as for j ever and ever. Oh, she must go out this very minute I j The child had put on her hat and coat before she remembered, that Angel had told her she must never stir beyond the hotel garden j alone. But, then, Angel probably did not know this important fact about fathers lost at sea return ing on Christmas eve and not at any other time. If she waited until Angel came in it might be after sunset, a3 it had been yesterday, and .then, even if they hurried into the street to search, they could not recognize him in the dark. "I do think Angel would surely want me to go if she knew," thought Rosemary. Her heart was beating fast under the little dark blue coat What a glorious surprise for An gel if she could bring a tall, handsome man into this room and say: "Dearest, now you won't have to work any more or cry in tho night when you think I've gone to sleep. Here's father, come back out of Ithe sea." . "Oh, oh 1" she cried and ran from the room, afraid of wasting an other instant. The sallow young concierge had often seen the child go out alone to disappear round the path that circled the hotel and play in the dusty square of grass which, on the strength of two orange trees and.a palm," was called a garden. He thought nothing of it now, when she nodded in her polite little way and opened the door for herself. Five minutes later he was reading of a delicious" jewel robbery which had happened in a tunnel near Nice and had forgotten all about Kosemary - istence. ' ' -. The little girl had an idea that she ought to go to the place where ships came in, and as she had more than once walked to the port with her mother she knew the way very well Two white yachts were riding at anchor in the harbor, but no one had como on shore who looked handsome enough for a father to .1 recognized by " 'eaveu sent niasunc mi momem you set eyes upon him. ; Rosemary stood by the quay for a few ininutes oiicertain what to' do. Two or three deep eyed,' long lashed Ifonegasquo men smiled st her kindly, as Honegasque men and Ital ians smile at all children. She had learned to lisp French with eomparatiTe fluency, ' dnring the months she and Angel had spent in Paris, and now she asked where the people went who had come in on those pretty white ships. Those are yachts, said one of the deep eyed men, "and the people who come on the sxe rowed to shore in little boats. Then they go quickly np the hill to the Casino that big white bunding there so thai ther can put their money on a table r take somebody else's 1 have always seen dishes put on tawes, sua iwjsemaiy, money.

C .ho M come before to walk in the garden on the terrace at unfashionable hours with her mother on Sundays or other days when, unfortunately, there was no work to do. She had sat down on a bench between a French "non-nou" with a wonderful headdress and a hawk visaged old lady with a golden wig and had fixed her eyes upon the Casino door when the throb-throb of a motor caught her at tention, Jfow, an automobile was a marvelous dragon for Rosemary, and she could never see too many for her pleasure. Above all things, she would have loved a spin on the back of such a dragon, and she liked choosing favorites from, among the dragon brood. . ; A splendid dark blue one was panting and quivering before, tho door of the Hotel de Paris, having just been started by a slim chauffeur in a short fur coat As Rosemary gazed, deciding that this was the noblest dragon of them all, a young man ran down the steps of the hotel and got into the car. He took his place in the driver's seat, laid his hand on the steering wheel as if he were caressing a baby's head, the chauffeur sprang up beside his master, and they were off. But with a cry Rosemary rushed across the road. The nou-nou shrieked and hugged her muffled charge, the old lady screamed, and all the other old ladies and young ladies and pretty girls sitting on the benches or walking about screamed too. The man who drove was pale under his coat of brown tan as with a crash of machinery he brought the big blue car to a stop so close to the child that its glittering bonnet touched ho'r coat. Ho did not say a word for an instant, lor his lips were pressed so tightly together that they were a white line. That beautiful little golden haired, smiling thing, so full of life t But it was all right now. She was smiling still, as if she did not guess the deadly peril she had just escaped. "Don't vou know, little one," he asked gently, "that it's very dangerous to run in front of automobiles I" "Oh, but I wanted so much to stop you 1" said Rosemary. , "Why, do you know me I" and the young man smiled such a pleas ant smile, with a gleam of white teeth, that the child was more than ever sure she bad done right "Yes, I know you by 'eavensenthinstinct" , She got out the long word with a gasp or two, but it was a greaTluccess. She had not mixed up a single syllable. The young man burst out laughing. "Where's your nurse f he asked. "In London," said Rosemary. "She isn't my, nurse any more." "Well, your mother" "She isn't" "WhatJ Are you going to tell me she isn't your mother any more? Aro you out 'on your own,' little lady!" "I don't know what that is, and my mother's my mother just as usual, thank you," said Rosemary, with dig nity. "She's quite well, but she doesn't "know I came out to look for you." "Oh, doesn't she f echoed the young man in the car. "Then don't you think the best thing you can do is to let me take you back to her T "She won't be home yet, not till it's dark, I expect," said the child. "Oh, that's a long time yet I Well, since you know me wouldn't you like to climb in and have a little run V "May I, truly and really V The little face grew pink with joy. "Truly and really if you're not afraid." "What should I be afraid of I" Rosemary asked. "I was talking nonsense. Get down, Paul, and put her into the tonneau. You'd better sit by her perhaps." The chauffeur proceeded to obey, but when the child found herself being tucked into a back seat of the car she gave a little protesting cry. "Oh. can't I sit in front with your "Of course you can if yon like. Paul, wrap her np well in the rug. Now, little one, we're going to start I won't take you too fast." , He turned the car and, passing the Casino, drove up the hill, tak ing the direction of Mentone when he had reached the top. He had not been over this road before, as he had arrived by way of Nice yes terday, but he had studied road maps and know both how and where he wished to go. "Now," said he, driving care fully, "how do yon like UP "Ob, it's wonderful!" answer ed Rosemary, with a rapt smile on her rosy face. "Have yon ever motored be fore P ' She shook her head. "Never P - "Brave baby." I.don't usually care to be call d a baby," she remarked, "but I 'don't mind from yon." "I'm especially favored, it seems," said the young man. "Tell lino how yon happen to know' me. I ean't think, I must confess, unless it wss on shipboard" "There I I knew perfectly well it was yon P broke in Rosemary, with a look of rapture. "You were on a ship, and you were lost at sea. But you're found again now be cause it's Christmas eve." . T wasn't lost at sea. though, or I shouldn't be here with you,1 said Hugh Egerton. He glanced rather wistfully in a pooled way at the Jovely little lace xrsmea mm Plowing gou aau. something in the child's eyes which stabbed his heart, yet there was sweetness in the pain. "I'm afraid we're phrying at cross purpose, aren't wtP he went on. "Wu it on a ship that you ssw e P "Oh, I didn't see you on the ship P said Rosemary. "I only knew you went sway on one.

And you've remembered me all this time P "Not exactly remembered. It was the feeling I had iu my heart, just as Jane said I would tho minute I saw you, that told me it was you. That was why I ran to keep you from going on in your motor car, because if you had I might have lost you again for ever and ever." "So you might," said puzzled Hugh Eger ton, pleased as well as puzzled. "And that would never have done for either of us." "It would have been dreadful," replied Rosemary, "to have to wait for another Christ mas eve." "Christmas eve seems a day for adventures," said Hugh. "One finds new friends and dear littlo girls, and goodness knows what I shall find next 1" "We must find Angel next," Rosemary as sured him. "She'll be so glad to see you." "Do you really think sol By the way, who is Angel f" rfxL. T:-ti 1 it.. VI ' "I expect I'd forgotten," Hugh answered. She looked so re proachful that not for the world would he have denied all knowlcdgo of Angel. -The child evidently took him for some ono she had known. Perhaps she had seen a photograph of some long lost friend of her family who resembled him and she had sprung to a .conclusion, as children do. But she was an exquisitely pretty and engaging little thing, a grand little pal, and worth cultivating. Hugh liked children, especially girls, though he had always been rather shy with them, not knowing exactly how they liked best to be entertained and finding it difficult to think of things to say in keeping up a conversation. But there was no such difficulty with this child. It was really interesting to draw the little creature out and see what she would say next As for finding Angel, however, "when the time came to do that he thought he would prefer to bid Angel's daughter goodby at the door. He had no fancy for scraping up an acquaintance with strangers through their children. My Hair is Extra Long Feed your hair; nourish it; cive It snmerhincr'tA live on.

He had forgotten that Angel was Angel I Though she was warmly wrapped in a soft rug of silvery fur, a chill crept into her heart. Could it be that nurse's words' about father had been true, after all, and, if they were, was she doing harm rather than good in bringing him home t Presently Hugh waked out of his own thoughts and noticed tho little girl's silence. "You're not afraid!" ho asked, blissfully uncon scious of offense. "I'm not driving too fast to please you P "Ob, no 1" said Rosemary. "You're not cold P , "No, thank you." "Nor tired!" "No, not tired." , "But something is the matter P "I'm worrying," confessed the child. ".What about, little one P "I'm not sure if I ought to have spoken to you or have come with jrou, after alL" To save his life Hugh could not' have helped laughing, though it wu evidently a matter of serious importance. "What do you think wa ought to have a chaperon P he asked. Tsui's in tb tonneau, you know, and he's a most discreet chap." "I don't know what a chaperon is," said Rosemary, "but will you promise not to bo angry if I uk you something, 'end will you promise to answer, honor bright P "Yes, to both your questions." "Were you really unkind to Angel before you were lostP This wu a hard nut to crack if his past were not to be ruthlessly severed from Angel's by a, word. He thought for a moment snd then said, "Honor bright, I can't remember any thing unkind I ever did to her." "Oh, I'm so glad I I wu afraid when you aid you'd forgotten. But maybe her nsme wasn't Angel then P That wu it, I'm sure," replied Hugh soothingly. "Maybe you named her Angel yourself P . "I don't know," said Rosemary.
