I rat Into her at the Century Club yeeterday and ahe aaked me It ate could help na, Waan't that dear of her when ebe'e ao buay? She aald a lot ot nloe thloga about what we're doing. She'a going to give a theater party the 11 rat night That'll make aplendld publicity. Oh, epeeklna ot publicity I'm go ing to ask the Times to aend that Dorcaa Taber oyer to get a feature atory ot the whole thing. It'll run well all about the theater and who'a roally back ot H and who's in the first cast and Somerset and everything." - "Oood Ideal" Oar had responded promptly. But he had been think ing how etunlng Marge looked in the thing ah waa wearing, what ever It was. She looked like the favorite In a harem; be had played with that faooy while Marge was talking. He bad been lounging comfort ably against the rose damask cush ions ot the dlran, his feet stretched oat toward the Ore. "I'v got to do something about Somerset, Oar, ahe had aald slowly. "He's well, he's taking too much for granted. But I can t offend him. just now. I wish yon'd sort of stick around. It you d go to the rehear ale " "The big bounder I Why didn't Ton say something about It beforeT Ton bet I'll atlck 'round. Ha has his nerve I" -Marge bad sighed faintly. Her hand had reached out and tucked lt- aelf nnder Gar's arm. He waa al ways completely at home In Mrrge'a alttlng room, pleasantly conscious ot Its luxury, ot Its seclusion, of the privilege that waa his In so enjoy ing It. She had told him ot the progress the Players were making. The cos tumes had been ordered from New York. He must see what Gordon Wing waa doing with the back drop tor the first act It waa perfect! Her low voice had run on and on from on thing to another, while Oar bad listened and watched the little play ot muscles under the fine skin of her throat. "Oar, I had a wonderful talk wltb yoar mother, about you. Ot course ahe'd say things to me that ahe wouldn't aay to anyone eiae because iah knows what frlande you and I hare been. She waa ao aweet I Just (opened my heart to her. I told her well, I'm not going to tell you what I told her. Ton would have Itueasefl It a long time ago except that you're so blind" "You're going to tell ma, Marge!" Oar bad asserted masterfully, "Shoot!" She had shaken her head; ahe toad leaned a little closer to hia shoulder, her face bent away from him. When ahe anawered there had bean a suggestion ot teara In her faltering vole. "But there Isn't any use, note. Tou'v married Kitty. And you'v polled ma for anyone else. It a alwaya been like that that's the way I felt laat winter when I cam out. I didn't give a hang about any ot the partlea when you weren't going to be there. Oh" She stirred restlessly. "I bat every, thing now! I'm atck ot the orowd, of all this fuse over the theater. Tm going away from Wlnton thla spring and I'm never coming back. I think I'll lire In Parle all th raat of my life. Will yon miss me, Oarl" Gar had been touched by her con feaelon, flattered. "I'll go after yon and bring you back," he had an awored Quickly, vehemently. He had put his arm about her shoulder and kissed her. "Gosh, Marge, I'd miss you a lot! You can't go away 1 "Would yonf ' she bad whispered against his arm. Ha had straightened, smHIng down at her. "To prove that I think ot yo I sent you soma flowers to-day "Oh! Belby told me there were towers I haven't opened th box I thought .hey were from Somenet. How dear ot you, Our!" "I didn't put In a card. I wanted to see If you remembered our old loosens. The three pink rose buds" "Oarl How cut that you r- awmber. 'I love yon. It waan't (onsen last winter. Oarl" Then 2 NABBED IN NUDE KELSON. B. C, May 0. M Provincial police arrested 0 Dou khobore, members of a Russian re llgloua sect, when they ataged a nude parade at Thrums, near her. Sunday. The group, cornpoaed of SO men, 63 women and 7 children, were brought to the Jail here in automobile trucks. Unlike th demonstration a week ago when 118 mimata were irmteJ after a sharp battle wllh police, the Doukhobora submitted peexsrully to day. Thos arrested last week were sen tenced to three years In th peni tentiary. Those captured today face almllar ft tea, ahe had drawn ajmckly away from him, pulled a cord tbat released a bright circle of light from a lamp at the end of the divan. She had flung back her shoulders, dramati cally. "We're crazy, Oar, talklni like this" A clock somewhere bad chimed seven. 'Oood gracious, I didn't dream It waa so late!" Oar had sprung to hia feet. "I've got to beat It. Yon can depend on me, Marge about Som erset And forget that going away stuff." "Thank, Oar." Her voice had been aweet, a little plaintive. Driving borne Oar had frowned heavily, thinking of Somerset's pre suming on any Intimacy with Marge. He'd ahow him where he got off! It did not occur to him tbat Margi could have done that herself, weeks ago. He waa all chivalry, all affec tion tor Marge. What it aha did go away to live in Parle T But be had forgotten that alarm when ha reached home. Kitty and her eager hungry embrace had met him at the door. "You're going to wear your cor- sage, aren't you?" Of course. It' la the Ice-box. It'a lovely. Oar." "Well, so a you." "Do I look all rlghtr "Beautiful. YouVa getting claaa, Kit What are yon doing! What beauty parlor are you going to! First thing I know I'll see your pic ture on some ad for cold cream or powder." Kitty laughed llghtheartedly. Gar's easy praise was Intoxicating to her; she needed no new dresa, she needed ao artificial color on cheeks or Hps. She brought tbe coraage to blm to pin on to her shoulder. 'Th devil!" Oar cried, laughing auddenly. "That Isn't what I or dered for you those three pink rosebuds. I told that fellow I want ed orchids." But I love these. Oar. And or- ohlds are so frightfully expensive." Oar laughed again. "Not when I'm sending them to you." They met the others at the Rain bow XJardens. They went there fre quently; th head waiter alwaya greeted them with particular con cern that they ahould have the table they wanted. Often Kitty, follow ing Oar Into tbe crowd, thought of Josle, looked for her among th dancera and at the tables. She told Tubby much about Josle, and Tubby had laughed witr her, but not at Josle, and ahe had liked him better for that There were to be ten ot them to night, at a long table. Diana cam with Buck Bewail, Red came alone, Tubby with Isobel Peters, others Joined them. Tubby took the chair next to Kitty and began whispering In ber ear. "Say, yon look out ot eight to night" "Tubby, thla old drees. Yon see me in it every time I go anywhere!" "I thought It was a new one, hon est" "You're silly." But she warmed to hia nonsense Tubby amused her with hia devo tion, hia clumsy humor. She felt at eaaa with him. With the othera, at times Ilka this, It waa like play ing a part In a play, the role of which aha knew well, now. Oar waa at the other end ot th table. Ha had kept th chair next to him empty. He waa watohlng the door. Presently be sprang to bla feet "Here's Marge." Marge approached the table with Paul Somerset Tbe othera balled her coming a little boisterously. It waa Gar, not Somerset who took Marge's evening coat from her ahouldera. "Sit here." he com manded, Indicating the unoccupied chair next to him. It left on for Somerset across th table. "I'm on th Job," he added It a low ton. Marge lifted a deeply reproachful look to him a ahe altpped Into th seat he had saved for her. Her An gers went significantly to the or chids agalnat her ahouldar. Her eyes traveled swiftly down the table and met Kitty's wide startled glance fixed on her. She laughed softly, her lips acareely parting over th sound. At their end of the table Tubby was deep In a story which ha waa pouring Into Kltty'a ear. All at once he became aware tbat ah waa not listening. He thought she spoke. "Whafd you aay. Kilty r She turned back to him, her eyea blue-black, a heightened color on her cheeks. "Did I say anything! It I did it was only that It waa Just illly. thinking It tor a moment" "But what I'm telling you la goe pel truth. Kit! It happened to a fellow I know." Copyright.
