"I suppose he left town on Friday,"
she an id, and took the towel Ann
handed to her.
'Where did be go?"
"Albany."
"That isn't far. Only about 60
miles, isn't it?"
"I don't know. I wiah It were

Ann aaid, "You do?"
"Yea, I do. And then I wouldn't
be hoping all the time."
"Don't hope," Ann advised, and
filled nn eye cup with Grnnd's boric
ai'id solution. "What is he doing in
Albany, for pity's sakes?"
"I don't want that eye stuff. The
new hotel building I told you about.
He wasn't going. He'd tatted his un
cle out of sending him. Don't I don't
want it, Ann."
"Of course you want it. What will
you say if Grand or Bosalie asks you
what you've been crying about?"
"For once just once in my life I'll
give myself the dear delisht of telling
them it is none of their business."
"Cecily! I must say! You won't
make yourself any happier, dear, by
being mean and making other people
unhnppy."
"My word, Ann, you do preach,
don't you?"
"I'm sorry. It is contagious, may
be. Did you have an overdose of it
at supper this evening?"
"I didn't go down. Mary-Frances
set it out for them."
"I'm hungry." Ann said. "Let's
go down and find something."
"I couldn't eat. I couldn't think
of eating. I really have a bad head
ache." "Come watch me eat, then." Ann
put an arm around Cecily's waist and
pulled.
"I wish," Cecily said, as they went
down the stairs together, "that you'd
tell me how you manage that serenity
of yours. I'd give almost anything for
some of it. I'm not sure that it is
genuine; but there is something so
sort of clean about it."
They were in the lower hall before
Ann answered: "I'm afraid you'll
think I'm preachy again, honey, but
I've thought a lot lately. I well, I've
had lots of time alone to think. And
one thing I thought sort of seems to
fit in with what you said about seren
ity being clean. I don't know, but I
think that sorrow is something that
should he put away and loft alone:
that it is something that shouldn't be
taken out and fingrr'd and soiled."
The moon puked out from between
two small sprawling clouds and blot

"Beloved," Mary-Frances answered,
"I wish you'd remember about my
not saying 'see' all the time. I love
it, of course; and I wouldn't change
a thing about you for the world, if I
were the only one,. but it would give
people who didn't know the depths
of you and all a kind of false impres

"Sure, I know. But listen, hon.

you a bit. that you'll never have a

"Henri's dearest, I have. Honest
and truly I have. I've talked it over
with my friend and everything. And
I just think the same thing that un
less a girl has exceptional beauty and
talent she is foolish to select the stage
as a career." That was Lrmiutrude's
mother talking.
"Oh, yeah? Well, that's where
you're wrong, Frankie. That's where
you and me differ see? And maybe
I'm in a position to know a little
more about it than you are. If a cou

I told you, I got talent. And it isn't
like you couldn't do steps or anything.
