glass to powder her face, lest the tlaine
ill it should betray to Peter how she j
loathed- him.
Then, abruptly, for the first time ;
since she had promised her brother |
Fred Hint she would save him and had
telephoned to Peter to come to her at
once, she remembered that she bad to
do more than merely to accept Peter's
proposal. She had to ask him to 'o
Heavens! How could she ask him such
a thing?
Peter might guess that she was sell
ing herself and might refuse.? Oh.
No! No*. He would never refuse for
such a cause as that. If he refused at
nil It would be because he was too
stingy to ?
Abruptly the stairs seemed to fly up
hp.} repel her, stuuiblingly she took n
*t'op forward, then Peter caught her.
Knd she realized that she had reached
the bottom of the stairs.
"Tha ? thank you !" she gasped.
But Peter ignored this. "You're not
hurt?" he gasped. _ t
"No! No! Thanks to you 1 You re
awfully kind ? " she went on.
"Kind ! Pd spaml mv life in being
kind to you if yon'U only let me'. Say
you will. Sny you will. Oh, say you
will!"
Promptly she twisted in Peter's arms
nnd looked up rouglshly into bis face.
"Let you be kind to me?" she bubbled.
"Of course I will. Please lend me ti^e
hundred dollars."
Peter laughed back. "Fi.'e hundred?
Sure thing," he promise:!. "How II yoti
have it? In gold? Kight away?"
His tone frightened Alice. Abruptly
she stiffened. "I'm not joking." sli?
said, coldly.
"Not joking?" The smile vanished
from Peter's' lips. The elnt.-h of his
arms slackened.
"No! I'm not joking," she replied.
"I'm ill earnest. What's live hundred
dollars? I'm worth a lot more than
that. I'm worth all yc.u've ^ot."
Peter's face cleared slightly; from
his pocket he took a check I and a
pen.
"Make it to you?" be inquired, pois
ing the pen.
"Yes! Please!" The words came
faintly. Alice had won. but she was
n >t happy.
Peter tilled in the name slowly. Then
suddenly lie looked up. ll?s puzzlement
had vanished.
"Who is this money really for?" he
asked quietly. "Mil course ii > ii"t f"r
yourself. Is it perhaps f->r il.at broth
er of yours?"
"No! No!"
"Kvideinly it is." Del' 1? rat eh I'.ter
put checkbook and pen baek nito bis
pocket. "Yon gave me a l>. -1 scare."
he went on, in tones that Alice had
never heard him use In fore. "\V hat's
j- Ted been doing? I wouldn't have he
bMved him capable of putting v?-u up
to this. What's lie done? Bobbed the
hr-.nk?" Peter's voice was kindly but
compelling.
Somehow Alice knew that she was
poping the real Peter for the lirst time
nr-d that he was very different from
what she had thought". Slowly she
n--dded.
"They've found him oyt? given him
r chance to pay back the money?" de
manded Peter. "They would of course!
Well ! I?on't trouble yourself about it
any more. I'll straighten things out at
the bank. Send Fred to my oflice to
morrow morning, and I'll see that he
pet?? a chance to earn en<l pay back
the money. He'll want to do that, of
coi;'*se." Peter bowed. "Oood eve
ning." he said.
Alice's eyes widened and her lips
parted. "You ? you're not goinirV" she
quavered. "I? I ? " uncertainly she
stepped toward him.
I tut' lie held up bis hand. "It isn t
necessary, dear," he said, with a smile
that was just a little hit twisted.
?'There's nothing for you to pay ! Fred's
worth saving, for bis own sake."
"But? but? "
"Forget it! The rest is between Fred :
nnd me. So far as you are concerned,
It's over. Put the whole thing out of j
your thoughts?"
"Ye-\ery well," Alicv's voice was ]
barely audible.
"Then, then? if what you said wasn't
nil pretense ? "
The front door flew open, and Fred
porranee bounded In. "It s all right,
he gasped. "The bank has -< Hi ! Well !
you ? don't need to? to ? " He saw
l'eter and broke o(T. Then ? "Oh.
Alice! You haven't promised to marry
him yet. have you?"
Alice smiled. "No, Fred!" she said,
gently. "I haven't promised to marry
him yet. And I'm not going to promise.
I'm going to ask him to marry tut."
She turned to Peter. "It really was ;
nil pretense, Peter," she said. "But it
Isn't pretense any more. I know you
at last, Peter, and I love you. Pl-please
forgive me and ? and ? Make me in
your arms and? and marry me, Peter,
dear !"
"For the love of Mike!" Fred was j
fleeing up the stairs as he said the
words. And the two at the foot had
utterlv forgotten him.
