Would be look very happy on hie wedding day! Br an hour or two after this time tomorrow he would be married to Roaamund Veronica Leonard Carew. She took up one of the sheen that she had been typing and began to correct It. And then quite sud denly the Inner door was opened and Jervls Wears came out Mr. Page was behind him, ruddy, smiling, and bland; his horn rimmed spectacles pushed up; his head slightly thrown back as he talked to the tall, young man. They shook hands Impetuously and Jer rls was gone. The door slammed. "You promised you wou Mr. Page put up his band to, his glasses. " "Dear me!" he said. "Vary like his grandfather but I think more heart. , Well, well, he is marrying a very Charming girl quite beau tiful In tact. A most satisfactory affair In every way. Yes yes. Ah, What Is the matter, Miss For sythT You look extremely pale. Are you HIT" ; "Oh no, air." '. "You look extremely pale. It would be most Inconvenient If you were to be 111 at this Juncture, but I do not want you to work If you are not feeling lit" "I am quite well." i The outer door had shut with a clang. It was this clang that had haken her, and shaken the room so that everything In It was trem bling Just a little. Jervls Weare had gone out of her Ufa. "I haven't found It," said Miss Vllliera. "What time did you say It was? One o'clock? My I Well, that means I'll have to give up lunch and go on looking for It 1 lay, dear, you wouldn't like to stay and help me, I suppose?" Nan shook her head. She was pulling on a small black hat She picked up her band-bag and made tor the door. "I've got to get home," she said. As a ru'e Nan only went home when It seemed Impossible to leave Cynthia for the whole day. Today waa one of the days when It did not teem possible. She committed the extravagance of taking a bus, "because this would give 40 minutes With Cynthia. She had ten minutes to put Jervls Weare out of her thoughts, and get the color back Into her cheeks. She rubbed them vigorously as she climbed Mrs. Warren's stair, which smelt of lodgers' dinners, to the room at the top of the house which hsd been home for the last two years. "Well, Cynthy?" she said. Three months ago Cynthia For ryth had possessed the frail, trans lucent beauty which compels a startled admiration and an almost terrified sense of Its evanescence. Now she was Just a too thin, too pallid girl with fair hair, a smooth ER LOSES JEWELRY IOB ANGELES. Aug. 33. (If) Seppo Marx, one of the four Man brothers of amen and stage, reported to the sheriff's office today his Holly wood apartment had been burglarized of Jewelry valued at 137.600. Marx said the loss vaa dlscoverrd when he and Mrs. Marx returned from their Mallbu Beach cottage shortly after midnight. The apart ment had been ransacked and the Jewels taken from a drawer In Mrs. Marx's dreaalng room, he said. Tne two, accompanied by Ooverneur Mor ris, the novelist, and ether friends, had been at the beach, cottage since Satuzdaf alter noon,. enture worth skin, and rather appealing dark eyes reddened by hours of weeping. She sat on the floor, leaning side ways with one arm on the rickety double bed which the sisters shared at night, her faded blue dressing gown falilng away and showing a torn night-dress that had once been pink. On the quilted coverlet lay a pile of letters. "Yon promised yon wouldn't," said Nan gravely. She came across to the bed and began to pick up the letters. You'd much better burn them and have done with It," Cynthia's band tightened on the soaked handkerchief which she held squeezed up. "Nan, you won't!" "No, of course I won't ut I wish you would." She sat down on the bed and pulled Cynthia's head against her knee. "What's the good of keeping them, my child! You lock them up, and you promise me you won't look at them, and when my back's turned you get them out and cry yourself to a Jelly." Cynthia turned and clutched at her with a wild sob. "It's to hard when we love each other when It's )ust money! If he. didn't love me, I'd I'd try to get over It 1 would I really would! But when we love each other" Her voice was choked, her . Idn't," said. Nan gravely. - hot thin hand was clenched on Nan's knee. ' Nan stroked the damp fair hair. "It would he better to try, Cyn thy," she said. ' ' Cynthia shivered. "I don't want to. If I can't marry Frank, I want to die only It takes such a long time." "You'd feel better. It yon washed your face, ducky." . Cynthia sniffed and dabbed her eyes. Yes, you would. And did you get the eggs?" Cynthia dabbed again and shook her head. "Then I must fly, or we shan't have anything to eat aWe'll have to. have them boiled." Mrs. Warren having duly obliged. Nan returned with a couple of eggs. Cynthia walked up and down talk ing In a aoft exhausted voice. "You can have both eggs I dont want anything. It's all very well to say pull yourself together, but In ten days Frank will be gone to Aus tralia, and I shall nevor see him again. 'And to think that If his uncle hadn't changed his will at the last minute, he'd have bad $10,000 and been able' to buy that partnership." "Your egg's done," said Nan. "I don't know why you like them near ly raw." Frank Walsh's non-existent ten thousand dollars was a sub ject to be escsped from with all possible despatch. Cynthia turned away with a sob. She went back to the window and stood there twisting her Angers and crying. "Cynthy, You really would feel much better If you would dress and have something to eat 8lttlng and thinking about things makea them a hundred times worse." "It's all very well for you," said Cynthia In a hupelesa voice. "You've never been In love, so yon don't know." "No," said Nan wincing at her sister's unconscious cruelty. Des pair shook her as she remembered that tomorrow Jervls would be for ever lost to her.
