"I know all about It I You've come here to keep an appointment with this young woman I" "I was not aware of it 1" "I tell you," his father Indignantly insisted, "you needn't try to humbug met I caught her In the very act of watting for you!" Marvin looked perplexed. "Well, It you did, why on earth ahould you (apparently) be blaming me for thatr "When I show you what I have bare" But as his father snatched from bis breast pocket a folded paper. Mealy broke In: "Now that you are here, Mr. Mar vin, will you be so kind as to drive me to the nearest telegraph office? I've got to wire some money to my seedy parents and It's pressing." Tm at your service," Marvin, look ing more and more bewildered, re sponded, taking her coat from a hook on the wall as ahe atarted to reach for ft. and holding It while ahe slipped Into It "B-but," bis father stammered, flush ing very red, "Miss Schwenckton! Tour promise I This paper you've signed" Tesr she Inquired. "What about "What about It I Tour signed prom ise to make no demands on my son" "But I wouldn't suppose my asking him to take me to the express office to cable telegraph to my family a bit of money I've acquired would come under the 'demands' referred to In that paper, would It?" "In the very hour of your signing this paper and accepting that money you dare to go off driving with my son!" "What on earth V asked Marvin, their demeanor and conversation not only not bearing out hla supposition. but suggesting a very different state of things. "Look at this!" bis father ex claimed, thrusting the paper at him. "Read that I And then decide wheth er you want to go off driving with that girl!" Marvin, feeling dizzy, read the few sentences on the paper signed "Amelia Schwenckton." "But what. In God's name. Is It all about? What sort of 'demands' la she swearing not to make on me" He stopped short, a staggering Idea flash ing upon him. "You must mean St Croix I" lie turned to the girl "Does this refer to St Croix r "I don't know!" "Too don't know !" cried Mr. Crelgh ton. "Why," be exclaimed, "are ypu both trying to aaddle St, Croix with a thing be has nothing to do with? As If I'd ever have to buy off a girl from marrying him t" "Are you boylng off Mlsa Sehwenck tJoa from marrying me?" laughed Mar vin, and as he spoke he tore the paper Into bits and scattered them on the floor. "What makes you think. Father, that tucb desperate measures ss this are necessary for my protection against even so dangerous a person as Miss Schwenckton?" "And anyway," the girl spoke In, Tm resigning. Please find a teacher, Mr. Marvin, for my school, will you? for Tm leaving tonight" "Father I Why on earth are you driving her away? There's absolutely nothing between as and" " Dangerous person' Is right Mar tin, and no exaggeration I I have Just given that girl five thousand dollars for the signed promise which you so imprudently destroyed 1" "I don't believe It; I cried Marvin sharply. "Miss Schwenckton, will yon show blm the roll of bills I've Just given your "He might tear them up as he did your piece of paper I" ahe demurred, showing no least embarrassment or shame. "It's not a bribe, Mr. Marvin," she explained, "It's a loan, which I shall pay back as soon as I've earned It at Hollywood. Tour father seemed so anxious to believe that I was luring you to your ruin and so eager to buy me off you that I hadn't the heart to disappoint him; especially as I'm In desperate need of money. And It Is Dice of your father to give the Amerl can screen a chance to be elevated) So I'm off to Hollywood I" And he fore either Marvin or his father could reply, ahe had seized her hat and fled from the room. Marvin made a dush to follow, hut bis father Interposed slumming the door and standing against it "Don't muke a d d fool of your: self, Marvin 1 Running after a girl who takes a bribe !" "No worse than your giving her a bribe!" Marvin panted. "You can thank me for saving you from being taken In by an unprin cipled hussy!" "Stop calling her nnmeat You're entirely wrong about her!" "What would you call a girl who accepts lire thousand dollars to drop you cold?" "You heard-her any she was borrow 'ng It to ge to Hollywood, tine's per 0 , ,1 of the Minute By HELEN Re MARTIN fectly right too. She needs It and you don't You've too much money and she hasn't enough. You held It out to her and ahe grabbed It I don't blame her I What started you on such a wild chase as this? What on earth put It Into your head that I was courting her? Surely she didn't claim t wasr "Her accepting the bribe was an admission of It I It you'd marry a girl that would take a bribe" "You thrust It on her she needed II desperately " "Do you deny being In love with her?" "I wasn't sure until lust now! But a girl with pluck enough to cheek you, Father, and grab while the grabbing waa goodoh, well," Marvin drew a long breath and turned away, Bis face suddenly gloomy and sullen, "you needn't worry I I wouldn't marry an actress, they're too temporary! I'd prefer a permanent arrangement In marriage. Let me out please." "Marvin!" Ills father's tone waa suddenly gentle. "Give up this fool Job of yours and come home) Your mother Is unhappy, having you away. And of course I want you back, too. Marvin assttated. "I can't turn down thta Job until my terra of office Is over. And If my living at home means I've got to sell my manhood to you. Father "I'll not Interfere with you." "Even If I decide to marry a county teacher?" "We can deal with that contingency when it cornea up," ."All right then." ' The two men left the schoothoase together. Mr. Crelghton took St Croix to task for bis misleading description of the school teacher. "How you ever got the Idea that she waa Illiterate, common" "But ahe Is!" "We can't possibly be talking of the aame person!" "The person I'm talking of la Miss Schwenckton, the teacher of William Penn school, the niece of the farmer, Sam Schwenckton. I bad doughnuts and coffee with her and Sam Schwenckton and his fife In their very own kitchen the night my watch waa taken from me!" "I don't understand It at all r com plained his father. "Barring the fact that the girl accepted a bribe from me, rd call ber a thoroughbred P The puzzle seemed Insolvable. Meantime, Marvin was feeling by no means so lenient toward Miss Schwenckton's accepting that money from his father as he had pretended. In spite, however, of the alck recoil be felt from ber for departing with that five thousand dollars, the sight of her school house when he drove past It now occupied by ber efficient In formed and uninteresting successor, gave blm a pang that every day grew sharper; a restless longing that was In danger of Increasing to an Insa tlable hunger. St Croix, meantime, had Just about reached a stage where be was ou the point of defying prudence and trying to aee Meely once more; and Marvin waa contemplating the probable folly and futility of his asking his board for a leave of absence to go to Hollywood, when a cablegram which their mother received Just at this time from Eng land diverted them somewhat from their absorption In their own misery. The cablegram was from Mrs. Crelghton's cousin. Sir John Kt Croix, announcing that hla daughter. Baron ess Sylvia St Croix, would sail for America on the Berengarla on Janu ary 2 for a short visit lo her American couslna.

He, however, demanded of Mar v!n that he leave him a clear Held. "I can at least aafely promise you," said Marvin, "that I'll keep out of It unless until," he corrected himself, "she turus yon down." CHAPTER X As St Croix' longing fur Meely was never for a moment associated In his mind with the Idea of marriage, It did not In the least dampen the test wttb which he went to New York to meet as he confidentially hoped and believed bis prospective bride. This would be a marriage so exactly to bis taste 1 allied to an oli English fam ily of rank, administering a distin guished old estate that for generations had been In the family, Hla experience wtth girls gave him no reason to doubt that he would And favor with his noble kinswoman. Ho, It was with a complacent self-conn-denre that well-groomed and clad In hla amarteat clothes, be stood oo the wharf on the afternoon of the arrival of the Berengarla and with tense ex pectation watched the passengers Bis past him down the gang plank hla eyes searching for a young girt with a handkerchief on her left wrist He did hope ahe would be good-looking It would be an awful wet blan ket If ahe turned out to be Ill-favored; though nothing short of an actual hump would stop him. A man could of course seek his consolations out side bis home It did not occur to him, naturally, that his wife might have need of con solations and compensations. Looking for a wrist bound with a handkerchief proved to be rather a maddening business. Wrists could be examined only aa the passengers passed close before him, while fares could be scanned halfway op the gangplank. A procession of men and. elderly women sent his gaze far op the plank In search of more yoong people when auddenly bis eye waa caught by a lovely face at the top of the long slope which struck blm ss vaguely familiar yet unfamiliar, too, In Its vivacious expression, Its Intelligence, Its deli cacy. Surely be had seen that face somewhere before though the poise of an exquisite amall head, the general look and air of a thoroughbred, the modish style of the young woman, were not familiar. Why I 8he looked like Meely Schwenckton I How strange and how absurd! At least her features did extraordinarily like! yet so widely different too, with that vivid, Intelli gent countenance, proudly arched little head, graceful bearing and of course her neatly arranged hair, styl ish clothing. But good G d, how like Meely ahe looked I "Am I seeing things?" be wondered, bla heart beating thickly. So rloso she passed him by that her arm brushed bis and ber eyes looked for an Instant straight Into bis but not the trembling of a lash nor the least quiver of ber Hps suggested that ahe had ever seen him before, as she walked on to mingle with the crowd leaving blm bewildered, confounded, with a weird doubt and uncertainty when auddenly, as bis gaze followed her, she lifted her hand to atralghten ber hat which In the crowd had beeo pushed askew and he saw, with a wild bounding of bis heart that her wrist was tied .op with a handker chief I In an Instant he was at her side and had aelzed her hand the con fusion of his mind so great that all his usual self -confidence was lost In a floundering muddle. He had been so sure of himself, of bis ability to Im press favorably even a sophisticated English aristocrat with bla ease and sang-froid and be was painfully aware that no country bumpkin could have been more awkward.
