In-law. ouaters leader ot the Froat-Hrownbeck cum. arlstccrvts Of Clouiihhiirre. I'ennsylvania, David,- workina in hia uncle's bank, is ton busn to help her with her troubles. Itob llanltls. un happily worried to 1,elln. David's wealthy cousin, is Fanny's closest friend. Site likea Hob because alts ran tell him her trnublea freely. .Bnb ia in love with Fanny. David has uo objection to their friend' ship, for Its Irusls Fannv abso lutely. Itob. unhappy with t.eila, plans to run away Irom her. Only Fanny knows ot his plan. . Chapter 23 ' SEEDS OF DISCORD rvAVID had promised to take Fanny to Emily Bennett's Hal lowe'en party on the night ot Oc tober 31, the night Boh Daniels had told Fanny he planned lo run away. They were to go In costume, and David liked to dress up. Tonight would be the first time he had taken her anywhere In weeks. Fanny, driving home alone that afternoon from the Country Club, felt happy . ut the prospect Fanny had always loved the ro mantic old Bennett place, built and tilanted loue before the Civil war. It seemed to her more French than American. The bouse was a minia ture chateau,- and the great park with Its long avenues of poplars and cedars. Its clipped hedges, murhle souls, might easily be Imagined as Ihe retreat ot a king's fnvorlle. The place was made for lovers: tonight the moon wus full. Oh to ho young and lu love und happy again! Even In the daylight the little sunken garden buck of the house was so beautiful It brought a lump to Fan ny's throat. What would It be In the euchanted light ot the harvest I1IUOI1? David ought to bo pleased. She not only hadn't seen Boh Daniels alone for several days she hadn't anon him at all. It was silly and slupld of her to feel so piqued and hurt that Bob hud not made an oc casion to suy good by. It seemed de cent ot least to wish Bob luck, to tell him again bow much good It had done her to ruttle on o him to her heart's content. She wanted, too. to assure him that his understanding and sympathy (uu matter how exag gerated) bud brought her a new courage and hopefulness. Why, with only u little courage, even a wavering backbone, she might easily seize the reins from Mrs. Frost, Fanny was suddenly very sure of horsolf. Bob or no Mob she meant to go on asserting 'iur rights. She wns smiling when -lie came In tho front door. As usual at that hour Mrs. Frost '.as sitting at the llhrnry Inli'e nh orbed In the evening papor. The .ill, dark, heavy-lidded eyes looked or a moment at Fanny ut her oud h rough her. - ' "Good evening." She soemed In ita at the period bite and hold into It. Fanny, to her Inlunso ills ippolntment and chagrin, .found her telt trembling. Mrs. Frost wnn con stnnlly on guard always watching it seo when she camo In. One look --and It seemed to Fanny that a numbing horribly parnlyiing some fling flowed from her mother-In-aw to her like an ectoplasm. It rus as It any Icy hand touched her jeart, ber will. In unreasoning lanlo Fanny turned and lied up the itulrs two at n time. David had relumed early to got a 1 inuch-necdod nhp. and neon waylaid by his mother with sighs and com plaints of her louellnesR. . "It's been a gorgeous day why jldn't you get out?" he asked. "Fanny has tho car: I cannot af ford to pay S5 every time I might like a drive." ."It's only 60 cents to go over to Cousin fCtmnollne's; she has a car: why didn't you ask her over horof" "You know why. But you have requested me not vory politely to hold my tongue on Cial subject" She wns referring of courso to Ills I'ousln Immeltuo's active resent- nonl at Fanny tor upholding Bob .i-:ujnst Leila. Fanny had done nnlh ' in' wrong, ot course; but sho was child.. Why couldn't she conduct -;rsolf,so ns uot to be talked about? I Ills afternoon be had learned thai 'mny had overdrawn again at tho ii.iuk In spite of repented promises M kcop within tier generous allow ance. . . ; David had barely composed lilm iilt to a halt tense drowsiness when Fanny flounced Into (he room. David lurked himself Instantly to n sitting position, lay down again quickly, "What It tho mntterT" ho growled. "Nothing." said Fanny unsteadily, nnd laughed a trifle hysterically. "It you don't mind going some ' 'pine else I thottlrf like a Utile sleep." GENUINE ENGLISH HOLLY WREATHS 1?. - - HANG ONE OF OUR BEAUTIFUL WREATHS ON YOUR FRONT TJ00R FOR THE HOLIDAYS .....
