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

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

Jewels taken from a drawer In Mrs.

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

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.
