Jenny readt in a paper which Qarth Aveney, - uhorf- the Hket eho thtnke hope Uttlybuyt for her that he, in ttead of Qeorgie. i believed to bo married. Qeorgie hat carried out ' her plan of keeping her morriago tecrett by eaytng that it it Jenny who hat married Eddie, which it pottible, tince the and Jenny have the tamo name. She will loee her fob if her marriage becomet known i to the hat persuaded Jen ny to carry on the pretenet in an emergency. Though Jenny thlnkt a clerk from City Hall hat rrscog- ' nlted them at the time of the ac . eident, Oeorgio believet her luck will hold. Chapter IS MRS. TOWN SEN Df WILL that be all, miesr "Tea." said Georgia brlsklr. That will ba all and thank you eery much, Mra. Hale, for putting In such a magnificent day's work. Here's a week's money and a refer ence you aee I've laid that I only part with you because I need some one who can come for the whole day and cook me a late dinner." "Thank you, mlas. I'm sure I quite understand." Mrs. Hale folded np the reference and put It with the money Into her worn puree. Her button-brown eyes roved towards the little room that had been a mere "glory-hole" and was now brare with washed paint, stained floor and furniture taken from Oeorgle's room. "It's wonderful what a difference aome VInds of changes makes to a place," said Mrs. Hale; and with a aly little smile she pattered out of the tiny hall. Georgia flushed, shrugged, gath ered up the curtain material and went Into her own room. There had been "some kinds of changes" here, too. The disputed relour curtains bad been aewn and bunt by Jenny after all, and at top speed; there waa a whole new suite of furniture, fashioned from an ash-gray wood with a lovely, swirling grain In it and Inlaid wl'h ebony. ' On the bed were plied boxes and boxes and boxes, just arrived; all of a silvery striped cardboard;' all tied with Jade-colored string; all tamped "Porolfe." . . Her trousseau. Georgia had not yet dared tell Jenny about It. Only last night they had agreed that she needed nothing but a new hat (or her wedding. This morning, on her way to City Hall she had torn Into Paraite't to see about It and per haps just a bag to go with It and by all aril ohancea madame bad shown her an ensemble from a can celled outfit. "Made for Glnevra Moule's first season but her mother baa died and only the white tennis dresses can be used. I'm taking everything else off her hands. Vour measurements exactly, Mlas Revell, your coloring, your Initial on the lingerie And I would make a cer tain reduction." It was not. In the end, a reduc tion worth mentioning; and madame would have liked a rather larger check on account. But, thank Heaven, the ealary would cover It all In the endl that exceptional alary for that exceptional job. She went, humming, Into the living room. She had had the sense to leave the room much aa It alwaya was; a cheerful, chlntxy muddle. On a table now waa the sewing-machine Jenny had borrowed from the Jani tor's niece; the telephone stood midst litter of scissors, curtain rings and tape. Poor little Jenny, how exhausted she had looked when he had Anally crept off an hour go to the hotel. Better ring up, presently, and sea If she were all right. It would have been kinder, perhaps, to keep her here for the night; but this waa one of the rare occasions In her life when Georgle definitely wanted to be alone. She laughed aloud and atretched her arms above her head, glorying In her IS years. A wonderful agal At 31 one waa so clearsighted, so capable, so keen. One wee so trongl Last nlgbt, long after Jenny slept, she had eat planning nd arranging; and thla morning, before Jenny was awake, she had made a start on the work to be done by Mra. Hale. Then off to do her hot-foot shopping money poured recklessly out so that she might hare the beat and have it packed and delivered Immediately! Heavens, what she had spent) And after all that royal spending had coma the wedding and the ac cident. She put a hand to her temple the bruise hurt, but only when she touched It; and her head ache bad positively disappeared! ...The full tide of life awept up In her veins and flooded .ato her tri umphant heart. How right she had PLAN FISH FEED ItOSEBUBO, Ore., June 10. (API 'ntltatlons have been sent by the County Sporumens aworlatlons to all sporumens clubs and other as sociations In Oregon to the annual salmon bake to be held on the Rom burg Oun club' range near thla city June 13. Arrangements are being made to entertain epprositnately 1500 Tlaltors. More than aoo pounds of Chinook salmon from the Umpqua river will be barbecued and served free. Trepshootlng events will be held In connection with the barbecue. HOOD RIVKR Columbia Oorge hotel, resort hostelry overlooking the Columbia river, opened. - - Addamt been not to te put out of Lbf a.nds by Eddie's mishap! Her n.urrlaje and her Job she wo'ild have botb; she would fight for both till she dropped... There was sound at the outer door and the bell rang. She waa atlll bumming as she went to open It, Probably It was the superintendent. Gill. She hoped It was, she had decided to take blm Into her confidence. She would have to make discretion worth bis while, of course, but It would pay In the end., She opened the door and faced man whom she did not Immediately recognise. Then he spoke and she remembered. He was the doctor who had given first aid to Eddie and accompanied him and Jenny to the hospital. "Mra. Townsend?" ha asked. Georgia caught her breath and a dozen evasions went whirling through her brain. But she voiced none of them yet She stood aside and gestured him Into the sitting room. She felt Quite cool, quite steady. Find out what he wants, whispered part of her brain, and then handle blm boldly. So old Gratton Matching had taught her to handle men. She took a long look at him while ehe gave blm a chair and of fered a cocktail. Vaguely, she did not like bis face. When he smiled It waa attractive but In response there was something mean about It; the eyes were too closely set, the Hps too thin. "You asked for 'Mrs. Townsend'," she remarked pleasantly. "I hope It waa Eddie himself who told you that there waa aucb a person? Be cause that would mean that he's well enough to sit up and brag about having got married!" The doctor echoed ber laugh but she noticed and resented the way his glance took atock of her. "No, to be quite honest, Townsend hasn't given any Information. But, you see. It's all over town that he had only Just got married when be hit that bus and that bis newly wedded wife was sitting In the backl And tonlght'a Record gave some details your name and ao on." . Georgle laughed. . It was a quite spontaneoua laugh. In a sense, be cause there really was something laughable In the way fate waa strik ing the song of triumph from her lips. Then she realized that none could be sure which of the two girls In the car had been the bride. And so long as people weren't sure "I suppose someone from the City Hall gossiped," she said and waa proud of the Indifference In her voice. "Probably. But what I really came about, Mrs. Townsend, waa to have chat about your husband. About bis health. I'm afraid he's going to he a bit of an Invalid for while." 1 Georgle lit a cigarette. She leaned rather heavily against the back .of chair the deep leathor chair that aha bad bought for Eddie. She watched her aplral of smoke as It curled up to the celling. "Please go on," she requested. "What la the matter with poor old Eddie, beyond bla cuts and bruises!" "A good deal. First of all, ac cording to Dalllng the hospital doctor Townsend'a nerves are In pretty bad way." "How d'you mean nerves? I we never thought he had anyl" "That'a mistake commonly made about men of Townsend's tem perament ' They themselvee will tell you that they've no nerves, when what they really mean la that they've no Imagination. So long as they're all right they alwaya will be all right they think. They feel sure of themselves. Once they've crashed, their whole nervous system Is affected." "But Eddie never not crashed." "He orashed this morning. la that car." Georgle sat down on the arm of the leather chair. A very slippery chair; It required an effort not to sink right down Into It "Aa soon aa he'd recovered con sciousness and been patched up bit, be said be must get back to his wife's apartment The nurses couldn't keep him against hie will, of course, so they got a taxi and put him In It He well, to get to the bare bonea of It, Mra. Townsend, bis nerve has completely gone. Only temporarily, I ddn't doubt but Just for a bit he'll hare to have a holiday from flying." "What what happened?" (Copyright.
