Why, Hal it's you!" Carol ex claimed In surprise. It was Hal Armstrong, to be lure, but a different young man from the love-sick youth Carol had seen In the living-room in the house at Falrview Circle. A groomed and poised young fellow who wore his dinner clothes with an air 01 ease, as though long accustomed to the perfection of excellent tailoring and the niceties 01 etiquette. "And how are you, Carol?" he asked, bowing slightly before the girl. ' And Miss Easterday it is a pleasure to see you again. Magnolia was unimpressed, how ever. She smiled at the youth and gave him her hand. "You weren't so darned pleased to see me the last time," she re marked. "You and this villain with you were all set to steal my Carol ine away." she laughed up at Gar dener. "Oh, I know, Nicko, you said you didn t want her. but Mr. Armstrong was hoping and praying that no one would rescue her. I shall never forget the look of dis appointment in his face when he found me aboard the viper." "How could I want her, when she despised me so cordially?" Gar dener asked amiably. "Never saw such a little spitfire in all my life." Carol knew she was blushing and she hated herself almost as com pletely as she hated Gardener. 'I'm glad to see that something will bring the color to your face. Miss Teller. You seemed rather pale this evening. Too much shop ping I dare say." he went on ruth lessly. "As I remember " he broke off. "Your memory is extraordinary, Mr. Gardener," said Carol, and she shivered in her mortification. "Stop it, Nlcko," Magnolia com manded. "People like to torment Caroline because shes so deliclous y tonnentable. Come on, let's get going, I've been starved for hours. Where are you taking us, Nicko?" "We'll go to Pierre's for dinner." returned Gardener. "Nice food, nice atmosphere, and no noise.' He look ed at Armstrong. "Get those tick ets, Hal? Pine! We're going to a show one of those lavish spec tacles for tired eyes your eyes are tired, aren't they. Magnolia?" Magnolia agreed that her eyes were practically worn out. "Then we'll visit a mad. bad, gid dy night club. That will be for the benefit of the younger members of the party. Let's go." They were whirled away In a great closed car and Carol leaned back against the cushions and gave herself up to the pleasure of the moment. What did she care if Gardener was insolent or that Hal Armstrong looked upon her as a frivolous coquette? She would soon be the wife of Crawford Sumner and then she could patronize them all if she liked. All but Magnolia. At Pierre's the conversation was gay and Magnolia and Gardener kept up a constant byplay that made Carol laugh in Fptte of herself. She had never seen her companion in this reckless mood and she watch ed her with Interest. 1 "Nolia, this Is great to see you this way again," Gardener told her. His eyes never seemed to leave her face and Carol seemed to see that the man was becoming Infatuated with her friend. "You used to be the most sparkling creature alive, and now I see you haven't lost a bit of it not one-sparkle." "What a dazzling sight I must have been," Magnolia laughed. "Like the Woolworth toer at night, or perhaps more like a trip tot Coney Island." They fell into an argument about something or other and Hal and Carol were left out of the con versation, Carol dropped her eyes to her plate and waited for the youth to speak. "How Is everything, Carol?" he asked evenly. "Oh, quite nice, thank you, Hal." "Have you been to Wycherly lately?" He smiled a little. . Carol shook her heaed slowly. "No, Hal, and I shall probably never go there again." she re plied, and there was a little catch in her voice. "No?" "You see. Hal," Carol began hesitantly, "you see, I'm to be mar ried." Armstrong's assurance melted visibly and his eyes sought those of the girL "Married. Carol?" he repeated. "You're going to marry someone?" His voice was husky and he grip ped the edge of the table with both hands. "Yes, that's what I said mar ried." "To whom?" Carol raised her eyes proudly and when she spoke her voioe was low and tender. "To the finest man In all the world, Hal," she said softly. "His name Is Crawford Sumner." "Sumner!" Hal half rose from his seat, but recovered himself and lighted a clgaret to hide his confusion. "Carol," he said after a bit.' "I want to congratulate you. Sum ner is one of the whitest men alive and I believe he will make you hap py. He is rich, and you will need riches, because you will never know love. If you had the capacity to love you would have married me." "What do you mean?" Carol de manded and her voice was angry. "I mean what I say, Carol," Armstrong replied earnestly. "You would marry me if you had the capacity to love. No woman who is loved as I love you could fail to return a spark of that affection If she were not cold as ice." He paused and looked at the girl closely. "But I dread to think what will happen to you when the day comes. Carol." What do you mean, when the day comes?" The girls faoe had turned as white as the linen table cloth before her and her lips were dry. "What do you mean by that-" she demanded. "I mean, Carol." he said slowly, the day you meet the man you will love as I love you now. You will meet him, but it will be too late. Think of me then, Carol, will you, and try to understand that I will be loving you as I love you now? I love you, Carol and yet, uoa, now i naie youi Carol gave a little cry, and she winced as though she had been struck. "What Is it, chick?" Magnolia inquired, turning to her. "It's nothing" Carol answered. picking up her vanity case andj powdering her nose. "Only Mr. Armstrong Is so amusing."
