Carey found himself In for It, so be became resigned, put the sdvertlee ment la the dally papers and hie own office address and telephone, made the Inventory, saw Sam and Hetty off and awaited the rush. There were two Inquiries before he reached the office, and along they came until Carey was quite fed up telling people about the apartment It was the voice of John Wilson over the phone, however, that prompted Carey to sense the right tenant “If that apartment's the right thing,” ■aid Wilson, “I’ll send my check to day. Mrs. Wilson Is coming In all the way from Easthampton, hoping we can secure It and said she'd be there about twelve." So It happened that Carey waited the arrival of Mrs. Wilson. Of course, be had not thought she would be such a charming woman. But she certainly seemed charming when ■he stood poised in the doorway with ■n Inquiring look In her big soft eyes. Thia was the moment for which C Carey blessed bls sister for asking his assistance In renting the apartment “What a lovely ai>artment," she ex claimed, “and a good view of the Hud ■on.

"Is on the high seas.” “Oh," commented the lady. Having got the information, she seemed more animated. “Is there any way we could get In touch with yon this evening- should any questions come np which we might want to ask you about?“ Carey gave her his card and telephone number. After a moment or two longer be had to watch her vanish into the sub way. The rest of the afternoon seemed both abort and long. Always through Carey’s brain kept running.

He hoped against hope that some Information would be In demand about .the apartment but It was not until after five that Wilson rang him up. T say, old chap.” said Wilson, "my wife Is tremendously taken with the apartment and wants to celebrate. We wonder If you'd waive convention and join na at dinner and a show. My sister Is along and It will just make a foursome." Thus It was that Carey, armed with two of the daintiest, tiny nosegays he could secure, met Mr. Wilson, bls wife ■nd sister and started off.
