OAMBILL, C. T. DOUGHTON, tkatees of T. B. J; other women were involved . She switched the lights off and parted the curtains at the nearest window. Darkness was falling. Beyond the hedge a man walked slowly, turning his head at each passing car. She watched him, idly wondering why he was loitering along like that. He stooped to light a cigarette. A match spurted into flame, and the flare lit his face. Anne shrank hurriedly back into the joom, dragging the heavy curtains together. This was ghastly. What coUld possibly bring him to this part of the country again, straight to Gran- leigh? "I mustn’t let it get me! It won’t do . . . I’ve got to see him, somehow.” There was a tap on the door. It was Matthews. “Mr. Barry wishes me to tell you that Miss Pendleton is here.’’ So the Pendleton girl was here already! M’ni. Anne gave a last quick glance in the mirror and went slowly downstairs. Anne went down with unhur ried grace, half smiling. Barry looked up. a quick flash of pride in his answering smile. Cleo Pendleton looked up also. “Here’s Nancy now.” Cleo slipped from the arm of the chair and met Anne half way. “I’m Cleo Pendleton. I want ed to be the first to meet you. I hope you will like me a lot; be cause I’m one of Barry's old friends. I’ve been counting on having you here.’’ “That’s awfully nice of you.” Anne was sweet but non-com mittal. “it makes me feel that I'm not a stranger here after all.” “Oh, is this your very first trip East?” There was ^ second’s pause. “I lived in the East tor a while. But I've never been here before.” “0-oh,” said Cleo softly. “But I hope you’re going to stay this time. We’ve all been arguing for years to make Barry stay home, but he won’t listen to us.” “1 always listen.” Barry grinn ed at her. “And then do as you please.” Cleo shrugged a petulant shoulder, and then laughed. “All right, if you won’t tell me. But I like Nancy better than I do you. . . . You’ll let me call you Nancy, won’t you?” —of course. ... My name really is Anne . . . not that it makes any difference.” “Barry calls you Nancy. I like it better, too. But I must trot dutifully back before Dad calls out the reserves.” Out in the hall there were voices. A door had opened. "Good-bye, Nancy. J'm going to stop for you some morning, and we'll dash around and do things.” Cleo whisked out with a careless wave. Barry chuckled silently. “She’s an irresponsible imp.” He called after Matthews, just returning down the hall. “Who was that, Matthews?” “A man looking for a job, sir. .4. chauffeur. He was quite in sistent about seeing you.” “I told him.” Matthews con tinued, “you were entirely satis fied with the present man.” “Quite right.” He suddenly remembered something. “0 h, Matthews, is my mother out? I knocked at her door, but there was no answer.” “No, sir. She’s changed her rooms to the west wing. I think she will be in presently, for dln- ner.” „ “Oh . . . thank you, Matthews. His voice was quit** colorless. Matthews went hastily. Both of them knew that the west wing had not been opened for years. Anne, listening idly, could come very close to guessing what had happened. . • And this was only her first day in Barry’s home. , Meantime Cleo Pendleton, who was not in the least irrespon- in 'flible, hnddled. sulkily back the Umqnslne. , ^ “Hurry, I’m late!” she snapp ed, and the car Swept out of the drfre so fast that a man cross ing the pavement sprang aside hastily. He scowled and took an envelope from his pocket and wrote down the license number. “Friends, and rich ones.” he thought. ‘Til try my luck there. Damn it. I’ll get a job some where. I’m going to stick here until something breaks.” Cleo had not even seen him. She was in a whirl of angry thought. “She’s no more a ranch • girl than I am—unless she’s one of the awfully rich ones. The way she talks—and the way she wears her clothes! And I thought I could make him ashamed of her!” The soft lips pursed sullenly. “I picked up a point or two, anyway. She’d rather be called Anne, and she hadn’t told Bar ry that she’d lived East. Caught that one from him! And some thing bothered her about the windows . . . but that sounds crazy. The funniest thing is that she looks familiar to me. . . . Just a little familiar.” In the next few weeks they danced and dined, lunched and motored, an ashe from one en gagement to another. The tele phone tinkled Incessantly. It was fun, but sometimes Anne was achingly homesick for the sunwashed Junipero. She and Barry seemed to have so lit tle time for each other here. Not once in those flying days had Anne caught a glimpse of the man who had loitered in front of the house that night. She watched for him, but he seemed to have disappeared. It could, she decided, have been pure coincience. Jim had prob ably gone on before this to the gayer haunts where he was more at home. Cleo Pendleton wa.s in and out constantly and at all hours. She amused Barry, and in her kitten-impish way managed to monopolize him a good deal. “Baby vamp!” Anne thought scornfully. The more she saw of Cleo the less she cared for her, but Intimacy seemed to be thrust upon her. Anne wondered if Mrs. Duane held the check book as well as the household control. . . . That would be embarrassing for Bar ry: she would have to wait un til he told her. What she needed to do first, she told herself, was not to make trouble but to coax Barry’s mo ther to like her. What Anne could not know was how ruinously the secret hope of years had crashed when Barry had sent that sudden word of his marriage. Mrs. Duane was a proud and strong-willed wo man, hating poverty and all that it meant. Barry could have mar ried Cleo Pendleton, and Cleo would have brought him wealth and leisure. Mrs. Duane hated the very name of Eagle Lake. The knowledge of this deep- rooted bitterness came to Anne sharply. She had tried to bridge the recurring silences of a tete- a-tete lunch by talking for once of something less impersonal than dinners and minor items of Granleigh news. “You have never been to the Perch, have you? It is like a beautiful mountain camp. You must visit us there next sum mer.” “F have never been Interested in the place. I hope,-now that my son is married, he will definite ly give up that kind of life.” “Oh, but his heart is in it! I’d be willing to see him sell everything else that he owned, and live in a hut with him, if he could raise the money for the dam that way.” Mrs. Duane's thin cheeks flushed slightly. “I have no desire to see my son living in a hut. Barry has made and answered.. Anne told Barry some of It late that evening, anxious to con vey a hint of warning. “You see,” Barry explained, In that careful way. “my uncle was really the head of the DtfSne Mills. My father had died years before, when I was a baby, and Uncle Bob bad bought In a^ fur ther share from my^ mother. Fa ther’s will left everything to her. Uncle Boh was unmarried, and meant to pass on the control of the mills to me.” Anne murmured something, •she scarcely knew what. So Mrs. Duane did hold the check book! “Uncle Bob was different from the rest of the Duanes. His health wasn’t good, and one March, after a bad attack of pneumonia, he went off for a year in the West. When he got into the Pinos Valley scheme it was easy to think of the mills as a solid asset to back some thing better. He was so sure of success that he financed It en tirely himself; He didn’t take anybody else’s money, but of course there were repercussions. “The crash came, and all that remains of the Duane ownership is the name and the comparative ly small block of stock'which my mother still holds. For the s>ke of the name I have a nominal office. The real head is Gage.” She moved suddenly. “Who?” •’John Gage. He was Uncle Bob’s chief creditor, and all sorts of a millionaire.” She did not answer. Barry was looking soberly ahead of him, and did not notice her froz en stillness. “I have the Western lands,” Barry went on,” which barely meet their own overhead as things stand now, and jusl enough income for our personal expenses here. Sometimes I’m tempted to throw the whole thing up and get a job. Any job. It might be better than hanging around like this, half-way be tween a visionary and a lounge lizard.” “You’re not! I won’t have you calling yourself names like that! And you’re not going to give all your hopes up, either.” She gave his shoulders a furious little shake, almost in tears for him. “If things are like that we can’t afford to live in Granleigh. You’re not really needed here, and w® could go back and make the ranch pay and save a lot of useless expenses. I don’t mind being poor.” “I know you don’t, you good little sport, but there’s a serious hitch.” He looked Uncomfort able again, a little on the defen sive. “When the crash came, my mother was prostrated, and I gave her my word that I would stay East at least six months out of every year, as long as she lived. . . . Sorry you married me, Nancy?” “Never!” 3he hugged him im pulsively. “Don’t you dare give it up. It’s coming all right. You wait and see.” But her heart was heavy.

The wounds of 'both victims have been treated and are ex^. pested to heal without infection.. Anne heard the swish of a c^ coming in the drive. Usually Cleo came in the road ster, preferring to drive herself, but today a long grey limousine waited there. A chauffeur stopd by the door. He was a new man. Anne looked toward him cas- ually, and her eyes stayed. For an instant they seemed to cling to him in frozen recognition. The chauffeur slipped easily in to his own seat. There had not been a glimmer of surprise in his face; only a cool watchful ness Cleo’s eyes widened. This was too good to be true. These two knew each other. Barry’s wife and a chauffeur! “I ditched the roadster yes terday, 80 I’m giving it a rest until the parent stops roaring.” Cleo sat watching Barry’s wife with bright, slanting glances. Anne talked when she had to, listened to Cleo, commented and even laughed, but now and thhn her hands moved nervously In her lap, and* her eyes went back to that smartly uniformed figure in front. The tennis finals were on when they arrived. It was good tennis, but Anne found her eyes wandering off toward a wide arc. of parked cars, doing here? When It was over, Cleo linger ed, a little in the rear, but Anne slipped ahead to where the lim ousine stood. “Jim, I must see you alone. Just as soon as possible.” “Yes, we ought to have a lot to talk about.” There was a jeer in the guarded tone. He opened the door for her, without the faintest change of expression. "I guess you know where to find me.” Cleo’s light steps were behind them. “I’ll take you ifome In plenty of time for dinner, but I want to show you something first.” Outside of laying violent hands on her, there was no getting rid of Cleo, once she started to have her own way.
