"I—I've had—bad new»—and I’m —all—all alone!” “Trouble, Marchioness?” Kelly said. Instantly concerned. “Hold ev erything. and I’ll be there in twenty minutes, and you come on over here and have supper with me. Hey? Good girl! I was just feeling very low and blue and we’ll fix each oth er up. I’m on my way!” Kelly would not let her begin on the story of her troubles until she had eaten. Then he piled things on a tray, carried them away, came back to sit in the chair opposite her. stuffing bis pipe and looking expectantly toward her. “Now, who's been mean to you?” She gave him a flicker of a smile, but immediately her face was se rious again. “I feel so ashamed of having both ered you with it! But I—I felt that I was going mad, and you were the only friend I could think ot I just thought that if you were coming to town you might take me for a drive. I didn't mean all this!” “I tell you my troubles.” he re minded her, drawing on his pipe. “You see. we girls at Saint Doro thea's never know much about our families. It isn’t a regular school you know. There aren't any vaca tions, and no relatives coming to see you.” “That's the school you came from?” “Yes. I was there thirteen years, from the time I was seven. But I remembered my mother before that, and that I had a nurse named Emma.” “Fran told me something about it” "At least I thought she was my nurse, and I used to imagine that my mother had been—well, rich, I suppose, because someone had left money to take care of me—and that Judge Marshbanks was my guard ian.” "I see. Go on. Marchioness." “Well then when I came down and they'd found me a position with Mrs. Porter. Emma told me one day that she was my mother's sis ter. She wasn't a nurse at all. she was—she is my aunt!” “A jolt, huh?” "I don't think it was a jolt be cause she was a housekeeper and because I’d always thought of her as a nurse,” Cherry said. Close to tears again she looked blindly into the darting daggers and stars of the fire, and tried to steady her trembling lips. “My dear girl” Kelly Coates said, taking his pipe from his mouth, “loads of people are going to love you, don’t you worry!” Cherry laughed brokenly, stealth ily wiped her eyes, and went on, “but, jou see, Mrs. Porter left me some money—’’ “Well, bully for her!” Kelly com mented. “Have a good cry over that!" “They read the will today. The house is going to be a museum, and lots of the furniture will be left there, and Amy gets a lol and we all get money.” Cherry paused as if undecided how to proceed, then rushed on, "But then—but then, after they’d read the will, Amy and the judge and I were having tea in the library, and we were talking about what Amy'd do and what I’d do and all that, and I happened to call Emma 'Aunt Emma.’ ’’ “Bui he's your guardian. He’d know that she was your aunt.” “Oh, yes, that wasn't it. And when Amy seemed surprised I just said that I called her that some times, and Amy didn’t pay any at tention. But afterward Amy went out and then the judge asked me if Emma had told me about it, and I said yes, because I thought that was all he meant." “What was all he meant?” “That Aunt Emma was mother's sister.” “And what more did he mean?” RABBITS AND SKINS RECORDS POULTRY.

He shot her a look over his shoulder. “Fred was Amy's father?” “Yes. Amy's name is Amy Marsh banks.” “That’s right too. There was an other brother?” "No. Only Amy’s father.” Kelly stopped his pipe halfway to his mouth and stared at her. "Huh.” he commented, in a brief sound like a grunt. “And it — it killed me,” Cherry said, not crying now, but pale and beginning to be agitated again. “It killed me! She's always had every thing—she’ll have more now—but it's not that! It's that they all loved her and wanted her and they’ve made so much of her and she's al ways had—I mean. I don't want anything she has—but they love her . She steadied suddenly at the sight of his attentive but not too sympa thetic face and for a moment looked at him in silence. "I mean.” she went on presently, gaining self-control with every word, "I mean that it—it sickened me to think that Amy and I are half sis ters, and that he, my father, could treat my mother so terribly—my mother was so gentle, and she was ill so long! And she got nothing, and I spent all those years at Saint Dorothea’s while Amy was travel ing . ." Her voice trailed off into an ashamed silence; the look she turned to Kelly became aggrieved and then apologetic. For a full min ute neither spoke, and then Cherry said something timidly, "Don't you think that's terrible?” "You rather knew, 1 suppose.” Kelly began, "that things in your background had been somewhat ir regular?” “Oh, yes, I did. Indeed. I did! They don’t tell you anything at Saint Dorothea's, you know, but of course the girls talk. And we read books.” "Well, then, looky. Cherry. Why is it so much worse to know that your father came of a good family, and that he really tried to do what he could for you? I suppose it was he who supported your mother. Em ma’s sister, and left money to take care of you?” “Yes; the judge said so today." “You're better off than I am," said Kelly. "You’re twenty and I’m thirty-one. You’ve got all the world before you, and I’m so damned in love with a married woman that I don’t know what to do with my self." He glanced at his watch. "It’s ten-ten. I’m going to run you home." They went out into the darkness to the car. He stopped at the gloomy Porter mansion and got out and went up to the door with her. “You’ll never know what you’ve done for me tonight,” Cherry said in the dark columns of the entrance. "You did something for me too. I’ve been seeing blue devils all day. Listen." he went on in a brighter tone, "here's a bargain. If you get too down, you telephone me, and if I’m going crazy any time I’D tele phone you, and we'll walk ft off together. There are swell walks up over the hills over my way. How about it?” “I would think it the nicest thing that ever happened to me," she said in a low tone. “It’s a go, then.” "There's only one thing. If we do that then I mightn’t ever have any troubles," Cherry explained, her hand in his. "You know what you ought to get for that,” His arm held her lightly, his lips brushed her forehead and he was gone. Emma had gone with her kitten to the country now, and Cherry was to leave for Palo Alto in a few days, to take possession of a room in the house of one Mrs. Pringle, and to begin summer-school work and to do a certain amount of coaching so as to be able to enter college as a regu lar student in the fall.
