There were two reasons why the old lady would give it to him, and Bernice "First, ' there was the way she loved ber niece. Then there was the scandal end of it. If the thing threatened to become a court cane, the old lady'd peel off a hundred thou to save the family honor." Molly gasped. You don't mean to tell me," she cried, "that Inger soll agreed to it?" "He did." he affirmed, "just that. "But don't forget, Molly, that the kid was absolutely infatuated with her and after all he is a kid. And, anyhow, he swears he had no in tention of complying with her schemes. After they were married, he never meant to Jeave her. The foor sap was going to make her ove him. That was what he thought," ' t "Do you believe it?" "Oh, I don't know. The kid's no Galahad. The point is, he promised he'd go through. "And Bernice went and got a wedding dress. That girl sure had a sense of humor. A white eatin dress and a flock of-tulle.' "I know," murmured Molly, "and a duchess' oa of seed pearls, with orange blossoms tucked in her veil. It wasn't a sense of humor though, Ked. SVomen don't joke about things like that. Poor soul she was buried in it.' Red nodded u nf eelingly. "Swell looking corpse, wasn't she?" "I didn't see her," admitted Mol ly, "but I had a good line about the way she looked. I said hers was a beauty made Death amorous.' " "Good!" approved Red. "You can sure turn a pretty phrase, old dear." "I did write some good stuff on that case." confessed Mary delight edlv. "Emotional writing is what I like." "And here's your chance," cut in Red excitedly. "Don't you begin to see the thing.1" Molly? Say, this has all those crime and set plays beat a mile. Why, honey, you can give the best of them a run for their money. Here you've got nil the ingredients for the be dsmn plot in history. Beautiful woman. Quivering Passion. The calf love of Ingersoll.

And there's your moral. Everv plav has to have a Moral." "And Mystery!" cried Molly. "Why Red, It's tho most mysterious thing that ever was! Here's a woman, preparing for her wedding day. All set to blackmail a wealthy lover, and marry a boy who adored her. Evervthing rosy. Why why would she herself?' 'That's just it!" announced Red triumphantly. "And the answer la she didn't.'
