to adore you. I've told her there

"Silly boyl" Mrs. Frew took
Kitty's hand and pressed It. "Bit

and do not listen to blm. "Carol'
Bh (are little sign toward Carol
ai If graciously conceding tba (ore-
tag to ner (or a moment.
But Carol did not take It. She did
not nova trom ber perch on the
ebalr-arra. She lifted a cool cheek
to Gar's kisr and notted toward Kit
ty with a careless, "How-do-you-do."
Rebuffed, even a little shocked,
Kitty turned quickly back to Oar's
mother. Oh, aha was all that Oar
had pictured her, beautiful, under
standing. That must discount
Carol'! coolness.
Oar was asking bla mother about
her trip. And Kitty listened, more
aware of the affectionate tone of
tbelr voices than ot what they said.
Carol bad refuaed tea. Presently
she rose to ber feet with an abrupt
lerky lift of her body.
"I've told Pound that I won't be
In for dinner," she announced, mov
ing toward the door.
Her going seemed innrcoly to
Interrupt Gar and his mother.
"It's great to be home," Oar said.
"How's that Job? Dad said anything
about It lately?"
Mrs. Frew hesitated a moment
before abe answered. "Is there any
hurry, Oar? I've looked forward to
having you her for a little while
after you'd finished college. You've
- earned a little play."
At that Oar flashed a smiling look
at Kitty. "Didn't I tell you she was
the real sort? That'll suit me,
mother. I sure worked like a dog
this last semester bad to. Anyway,
OAR
I want to break Kitty In. But will
Dad com across with th allow
ance?" Now Mrs. Frew smiled at Kitty,
as It to apologise for Oar's touching
Upon such a personal matter before
her. "Another time we will talk
that over, Oar," she reproved,
gently.
"Anyone coming In (or dinner to
night to celebrate?"
' "Not tonight your (utbor has
an engagement at the Club and I am
going to the Travels'. Joan la an
nouncing her engagement to Jorry
Mont I sent your regrets I
thought It the only thing to do, un
der the circumstances."
"Joan's going to marry Jerry
t Mont? She Isn't (ussy, Is she?" Oar
crien aurisiTeiy.
"It seems very perfect match.
It unites wealth and family." To

Kitty: "The Monts are a very old
family In Wlnton."
"Call It a merger not a mar
riage!" When Mrs. Frew stole a look at
her wrist-watch, Gar laughed. "An
other meeting today, mother?"
"It'a the executive committee ot
the Library for the Blind. Gar."
Mrs. Frew rose and glided toward
the door, Midway abe stopped and
came back to Kitty, She put an
arm gently, graciously about her.
"You must pardon my running away.
Gar will tell you how seldom 1 can
call my time my own. Anyway, you
and Gar will want to bo alone, I
know."
Gar walked with her to the door.
Kitty turned toward him as he came
back. '
"Gur, do you mind missing that
dinner tonight?"
His mother had sent Gar'a regrets
because of the "circumstances."
That meant because Gar had
brought her home.
"Not a bit. Kit It'll be stupid."
And Gar was to play about for a
little while; he had consented easily
to the suggestion. But she shut
her mind on that, quickly. Not
now Nor would she think of Carol.
"We'll go to the Hoffman (or din
ner, Kit When I tell Burkett, the
steward there, that we're celebrat
ing our marriage be'll set up prop
erly. Our honeymoon Isn't over,
sweet!"
To do (ull honor to the occasion
of their celebration Kitty put on
her wedding dress.
The simplicity of Its lines became
her; Its Ivory texture heightened
her fresh coloring.
Tbey took a taxi to the hotel.
For Kitty the summer dusk strung
through with beads of light spelled
enchantment; the wide door of the
hotel drew them Into an Aladdin's
palace.
"I'm married, Burkett" Oar told
the steward. "We're celebrating
the best In the bouse." And the Im
perial Burkett bowed gravely.
For Kitty magic lay over the
room, In the soft muslo from an
orchestra half hidden behind a
splashing fountain, over which
, .'. . MRS. FREW
played a changing flood ot colored
light, In the hum of voices.
They dallied ovor their dinner,
talking, sometimes simply gating
deeply, happily Into one another's
eyes.
Kit It's not such a bad Idea of
mother's that I play around for a
little while. I'll have the roadster
gone over to-morrow. We'll go out
to the Country Club. I've got to
start you at golf. I tell you we're
not going to get like most marrlod
people, Just-fussing about the milk
man and the butcher and all that
sort ot thing. That's what takes
the edge off trom romance."
Kitty, twenty, a little Intoxicated
with the color and lights about her,
knew that nothing, nothing ever
was going to take the edge from
their romance
"But It'll be (un with us, Oar,
talking about the milkman and th
butcher."
"Dad'U fix my allowance," Gar
pursued with easy conlldence.
"Mother'll talk him Into It."
"Oar, when will we see your
father?"
"Best time to catch him home ta
at breakfast but you have to got
around by eight oclock to do that"
"Let's hav breakfast with blm
to-morrow, Gar." Kitty wns eager.
The room had emptied of Its din
ner guests. Kitty and Gar had th
dancing space almost entirely to
themselves. "I like H like this."
Kitty whispered Into Oar's ear, bent
close to her cheek. "It's aa every
thing wore just tor its."
But presently four young ppople
came in and Oar, seeing them, ex
claimed loudly: "There's Marge and
Red Harding. That's Diana Close
with her. Kit, and Tubby Wtlklns "
lie was across the room on the In
slant, shaking bands with the new
comers. Kttty saw th girl whom
