He. and is friends considered it a good Joke, ulthing uproariously at it. Lida rode toward their meeting Dice with t feeling of oppression, lad some sneak reported to the old idy about her (Lida's) visit to Todd anedoo's studio? Or her meetings rith Vance? Lida knew that she was lenaced but she could not tell wheth- r the danger was large or small. "I'll get out at the next corner, rter," she told the chauffeur. She lad to be careful! The tea room she btered a moment later wns an incon micnons one. It was crowded now and ids felt the admiration and wonder f many. eyes turned her way to lin- :r. Vance had reserved a table in a Inoth. He crossed the room and said. poking down on her, "I thought you'd lever come!" She smiled as they moved toward p booth to settle aide by side. lie fulled her gloves from her handa. She Hrted, relaxed. - So tired!" she murmured. Vance's voice drormed to whlsner. 'Darling one!" he said. leaning to ward her. He was a satisfactory ad irer dark, slim, showing the world- r weariness that was his in bold, hadowed eyes. "ve come from Aunf F.lln's. She id not receive me-and It hurt!" Lord: Fancy not seeing von If hi could!" he murmured. He groped nMtn the table for her hand. I have endured Bentwell for so hny years in order to avoid hurting LITTLE ORPHAN. ANNIE Word from the Departed the old lady," Llda went on. Again she sighed. Sh felt a pleasant tens of long-suffering saintlineas, untouched by the fact that her manner of "en during" was ao extremely vocal that tt had, mora than once, driven Bent well to his club to try to forget the lash of her tongue. Vance's hsnds tightened on her hand violently. For the first time he looked away from her. Stealing a side glance at him she Baw his face drawn by emotion, ilia chin waa set. "I can't bear to think of you having to endure anything, he said barahly, unevenly nnd too loudly "I want to give you everything, Llda. I want to take care of you!" Privately Bhe thought, "On $50, 000!" and found the thought amus ing. To him she said, "Vance, you're ao aweet! So kind!' . He moved suddenly nnd again his eyes wore upon her, devpuring her. Lida snw that he was going to be dif ficult. It did not frighten her: instead Bhe felt stimulated, enjoying this proof of her charms. "Vance," she appealed, ''baby me! T'm really so pitiably weary. Nothing has gone as it ehould today. You know how I long for pence and quiet nnd love and dear companionship. I've been lonely for yeara, Vance!" She rnised her large, slate-gray eyes which could fill with synthetic feeling to his fnce that balked hunger had made stern. For the first time he paid no heed to her nppeal. "Lida," he exclaimed, "I'm tired of it. Meeting you like this for half an hour or so. It'a not enough. I can't stand it! You know what I want. You all your time everything; Look at me, Lida, aweetest!" Suddenly, then he was silent, lean ing away from her, looking away from her. His grip on her band made a ring cut deep. Lida adored auch moments, playing a role and finding warmth from a fire she never felt in her heart. A few moments later he spoke again, staring down at her . lashes, outlined and made ebon by her perfect akin. "Som day all this will be over, Lida," he promised a little thickly. She gave him a fleeting glance, shy and warm. She said, "You know that's my dream, darling." "Together " he went on. "Oh, Vance, If that only could be!" "It will be. It must! My God, Lida!" There was another streetch of si lence in which Lida felt the growth of satisfaction in her power. Oh, yea, she could do with bim exactly aa she wished. Vance worshipped her. Would do anything she said! Suddenly he turned. His shoulder pressed against hers. Vance said in a quiet tone, "Almoat. forgot that I've some news for you!" Vance wont on smoothly, "Car- ra and Hnl Woodbridge wnnt you to go down with them to Miami for a week or too. They spoke of it last nieht. You will, won't you? Then I'll come later." "I don't know Vance." Lida Staf ford said the words hesitantly, her eyes averted. "Please, dejirest!" Llda protracted the moment, al though she knew she would go if f'arra and Hnl went down in their plane, "La Paloma." Protracted the moment becausn Vance, begging, was so really satisfying. This was the adultion and attention she cravefl. A waitress wearing a black dress, rather worn and in need of pressing, stood by the table, pencil tapping on her pad, waiting to take their order. Vance had completely forgotten that they were to have tea. He ex claimed, "Oh I see what do you want, Lida?" "I don't know, dear. Won't you order ?"
