CHAPTER CCLXXIV WHY LILLIAN SAID "DON'T THINK " ABOtJT THE MAN AT ALL, JUST NJOY TOUk LUNCHEON- ' ''Well, my dear, what are you meaning over that you didn't see me come la? 1 beg your pardon, Madge, what la the mater? , Tell me." . Lillian Fadenrood . stood , before me. , Lillian, whose entrance into the small reception room of the Syd enham, at which we had an appoint ment, I had not even ' seen. She stood looking down at me with an 'anxious, ataxmed expression ta her eyes, i -:- i ",.--. --.'..- s , ' V'Thers nothing- the matter, I returned, evasively. - "Don't tell mto a terradlddle. tuy dear," ; Lillian countered smoothly "You're av white as a sheet, and J an see, your hands trembling this minute. Something has happened to crset you. But, of course. If you'd rather not tell me -y, There was a subtle hint of with drawal In her ioae. i was afraid that I had offended her. After all, why not tell her of the st-anger who ' had so startled me? -?Look over by the door, Lillian, " I said. In a low voice, "not sudden ly as if I had Inst Mki a mn inhere a man Still standing there star- uiS l u r Lillian whistled softly beneath her breath, a' tittle trick she has when surprised. Oh-h-h!' she breathed, and turn fag, she loked swiftly at the place I had indicated. - "I see a disappearing back which looks as though it might belong to a masher. I . just caught sight of him as he turned well set-up man about middle age, hair sprinkled with gray, rather stunning looking." Lillian's Common Sense C. "Yes, that is the man," I return ed, fainUy, "but. Ullian, I'm sure he isn't aa ordinary 'masher. He had the strangest, saddest, most mys terious look in his eyes. It was al most as it he knew me or thought he .did, and 1 1 hare the most uncanny feeling about him; as If he were some one I had known hngr ago. I can't describe to you the effect lie 'had upon me. "Nonsense." Lillian said, brusque ly, "the xamiA is just an ordinary com mon lady-killer of the type that in fests these hotels, and ought to be horsewhipped at sight. You're get ting fanciful, and I don't wonder It.' IO T UlUI a. tuPTlhlu caused you, and I imagine you hav en't been having any too easy a time with dear mamma-in-law. I'm mighty glad you're going to get away with Dicky by youraelf. A week in the mountains ought to set you up wonderfully, and you certainly need it when you start wearing myster ious t-agedies about the common or garden variety of , 'masher. " Lillian's: rough common sepse steadied me. as it always does. I felt ashamed of my momentary emo tion. "I fancy you're right, Lillian," I LEMON JUICE FOR FRECKLES Girls!

"Let'i forget about It aad have some lunch. Where shall we go?" "There's a bully little tea room down the street here," she said. It's very English, with the tea roxles and all that sort of frills, and some or their luncheon dishes are delicious. Shall we ty it?" "By all means," I returned, and we went out of the hotel together. Although I koJced around furtive ly and fearfully as we left the hotel entrance. I could see no trace of the man who had ao startled me. Scor ing myself for being so roolish as to Imagine that the maa might still be keepng track of me. I put all thought of his actions away from me and kept up with Lillian's brisk paee. chatting with her gayly over our past experiences In buying hats and the execrable creations turned out by milliners generally. "Don't Say Anything." ' The tea room, proved all that Lil lian had promised. Fortunately, we were early enough to escape the noon hour rush and secure a good table near a window looking out upon the street. "I like to look out upon the peo ple passing, don't you?" Ullian said, as she seated herself. "Yes. I do." I assented, and then we turned our attention to the menu card 8. , "I'm fearfully hungry." Lillian an nounced. "I've been digging all morning. Oh! it'8 chicken pie here today." Her voice held all the glee of a gormandizing child. "I don't think these Individual chicken pies they serve here eaa be beaten in Nev York." she went on. "You know the .un mess potatoes and onions, and a little bit of chicken mixed up with a sauce they Insult with the nanse gravy. These are the real ar ticle Just the chicken meat with a delicious gravy covering It, baked in the most flaky crust you can imagine. What do you say to those, with some baked potatoes, new lima beans, sliced tomatoes and aa ice for dessert?" "I don't think it can be Improved T? J.",d then I clutched Lillian's arm. "Look quick- . .v1 whUpered' "tne tnr side of the street!" Lillian s eyes followed mlae to the opposite side of the street, where! walking slowly along, was the man I had seen In the hotel. He did not once look toward the tea room, but he came opposite to It he turned it Pavement and crossed the street leisurely toward us. "Oh! ,1 believe he Is coming In." gasped, and my knees began to tremble beneath me. - k.Iv upEr he Lillian suapped back. Her tone held a contemptuous mpatienee that braced me a. noth ing else could. "The man has a right to come In here If he wishes, it may be a mere coincidence, or he may have followed, you.
