She jat ut quietly and let the large, njjal drops gather and fall, touch totltm every now nnd then with the Mb of the now delicately plented ludkerchlef. Kitaarine felt a surge of impatience.

"But you've onlr Itmt rot bunk.' Marine said. , " know, but we could say we nated to do New England the tttine ahops and so on. . ." "Aid slip np to Maine and see !! Is that It?" if nodded. Marine frowned. "It's much too ""parent. Bertine would be sure J Me through it. She's much quicker n Tour mother about things like IT. "She'd ilrly, "of deceit." Katharine flushed. It was true, woe wonld think Hint she would J fter Zoe properly. Well, and -TOld, too! "No, 1 can't possibly do it !" "Oh, Kay, darling, think about it, won't you?" Zoe looked as If she might burst into tears again. "I don't really like Gibbs," Kath arine began, doubtfully. "Why should I foster this affair? I think It would be the worst thing yon could do, to marry him . . ." "Oh, marry!" Zoe opened her eyes. "Well, Isn't that what you're after?" "He hasn't asked me, but he will," said the younger girl with a note of soft triumph. "I've simply got to get bsck," Ksth arine said suddenly. Of course she loved Zoe as a sister, hut this morn ing there was something peculiarly Irritating In Zoe's assumption that she could bend a fullgrown man to her will. Maybe- Gibbs wanted to marry her and maybe he didn't. Katharine didn't know. But Zoe was sure of her powers. Kntharine. from her chilly heights of superiority to feminine wiles, felt annoyed. She was remem bering with lightning clearness, the way Michael had stared at her the other day; so angrily, almost though he had, for an instant, hated her! Zoe would have known what to do in auch a situation. The little car whirled about, began the down grade. At the lane leading tnto the riding club Zoe obediently stopped. " "Look, I'll call you up later," she heean Importantly. 1 Katharine nodded. Then her heart plunged sickeningly. Something strange happened to her pnlse: It was pounding In her throat. She was oonscinus of a swift surge of rage. Riding together, heedless of others along the path, came a man and a girl. Michael and Sally Moon! Zoe glanced at the riders Michael and Sally Moon and said carelessly, "So she's got her hooks into him!" Katharine felt the hot color burn her cheeks. She pretended not to hear. Her heart had plunged now righted itself. She steadied her hand against the door of the car so that Zoe should not see bow it was trembling. Ahead of them, under the high arch of trees, Michael and Sally rode on. The sound of horses' feet was strange ly loud in the stillness. Katharine could see a flash of sunlight on the red crest of Michael's head. Sally drooped toward him and his attitude toward her, even at this distance, seemed protective, solicitous. It was all absurd; It was not Kath arine's affair, certainly, if Michael rode with Sally Moon. "...so I'll count on you then, Kuy," she heard Zoe say, in the silence. "What? I didn't hear you?" Knth arine's tone was confused, her cheeks flnming. "Be darling and think over what I said about taking a trip to Maine," Zoe coaxed. "Mother wouldn't mind a bit If yon suggested t She wouldn't even suspect." "Oh, really!" Kathnrine was unac countably nettled by the suggestion that she, at 20. was so staid and reli able that a willful, pretty child like Zoe might be trusted with ber any where. What did people think she was made of, anyhow? She had feelings like the rest of them. Anger swept her, swift and unreasoning. .She wanted, .recklessly, to strike out, to hurt someone. She felt savage she who was usually so cool and judicious. Zoe was in no hurry to get on. She lighted a cigaret now, from the little silver case she always carried, and offered Katharine one. The other girl refused. i Zoe nodded in the direction of Sally ' Moon's departing figure. The absurd yellow cap could he seen, bobbing in tune with the mare's jocund trotting movements. "Hear she's refused Howe Mackenzie ?" "Ob. I don't believe It," Katharine . said sharply. I Zoe giggled. "Why. Kay, I believe you don't like that girl."
