THE CHARMING MARK
"DABS Mark this ! Mr. Arml-
tags. Mark, you remember Far
rell Armitage who used to come to
our parties frob; Upper Mallard
Tlcarage? That would be while you
wore In France, Babs. You weren't
there. Mark, show Mr. Armitage"
"I'm glad you're not seriously the
worse for your accident," ald Far
rell, sitting down near tbe couch.
He kept hli attention upon Mark.
He bad bowed to the girl and re
ceived a welcoming murmur that
was not echoed by her eyes. Then
he had Ignored her. But he did not
need to look at her to be aware of
everything about her. The way her
nnlr sprang trom her wide, low
forehead; the way her hands lay
lackly round a dark leather case.
"I'm glad to have the chance ot
thanking you for your timely aid,"
aid Mark Lodely charmingly. (Ar
mltage admitted the cbarm.) "1
don't otten 'fal! but when I do 1
feel totally unable to get up again."
"Mark, Mr. Armitage Is Interested
in your"
"I remember your coming to play
In our garden, Armitage a great,
hulking brute you were and you
put a bigger brute, a cousin of
mine, well into tho lily-pond. I
couldn't sleep that night tor joy."
"And I couldn't sleep for well, I
bad an Interview with the vicar
when I got home," Armitage recol
lected grimly. "Lord, that dear old
man had a wonderful stroke In those
days I"
Barbara bad turned her face to
ward! him and he allowed himself
casual return of her glance. Tbe
darkness was passing from her eyes
but her lips still suffered. He felt a
great longing to see her smile.
He began to talk easily, entertain
ingly. He had traveled, worked,
watched men and women travel and
work there must be something out
ot all that to make her smile I He
talked through Mrs. Lodely's laugh
and presently she stoppod laughing
and became genuinely amused.
Mark's negligent charm .quick
ened to excitement to admiration.'
His eager comments begged for
more. More llfe-rnioro fun more,
morel Only the girl at the Are nei
ther laughed nor spoke.
Armitage abruptly turned to hor,
checking himself In mid-anecdote.
Her eyes and be had been right
about them, they were deep hazel
had grown friendly, rather wistful
Unchallenglng. Her 'ovellnoss was
like a sudden rush of light and be
neath that and beyond It was his
feeling that she was his. 'This It
the this it $hel" ... He thrust
, everything from him but his
strategy.
"I'm forgetting," he said. "1 sit
garrulously here while tbe question
remains unsolved as to why my
dancing-partner has left me In the
lurch."
Tbe eolor rose under the white
petal skin.
"You mean me," Mr. Armitage?
But I wasn't going to dance td
night, was IT"
"Not" Armitage reminded himself
to be very gentle and casual. "Miss
Cane must have got confused. She
rc'uht ms -Icr." tc a d"ncc y
Jolly dance with tbe promise of a
wonderful partner and then told me
to out along and (otch her."
"Oh, those little hops at the As
sembly rooms I" cut in Mrs. I odely.
"People young people, you know,
subscribe and bring tholr own part
ners. Oldn't know you were mixed
up In It, Babs?"
piactlclly Insisted. But I've never
da' jed there. I can't imagine why
she thought I should tonight" She
looked with a quiet simplicity to
wards Mark. '
"Aren't you Leila's partner, Armi
tage?" smiled Mark.
"No, I'm odd mr.n out If Miss
Quentln won't come along," said
Armitage, thinking of the somewhat
startled youth whom Leila had dug
out ot his evening studies in order
to bolster up the situation. "Not
tljat that's of the slightest account,
though, It you don't feel like It, Miss
Cuentln?"
ion a world of good!" urged Mrs
Ltidely, boisterously. "It's ridicu
lous you bottlln' yourc!t up here
because Mark don't dance!" Again
her train of thought was patent.
Armitage could be kept in the circle,
even If only for the time It took
Barbara to change her dress.
"I wonderif you'd care to show
me some of your work, LodeIy7"
"Of course he would! Mark, show
Mr. Annitage oh, anythln'l
There's plenty ot It, I'm sure! Only,
unfortunately, a whole cupboardful
has gore over to the new house at
Toxeter and In any case the key's
lost and the door'll have to be forced

laughed, deatenlngly. "But surely

IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE
Just think 1 It was Christmas Eve
Just as It Is today and this little
fairy was setting out to help Plnoc
chlo. Away she flew ver swiftly.
And guess where she was going?
To a little children's hospital. She
knew It didn't have many toys and
that It didn't have much money to
buy them.
When she arrived, the head nurse
we feeling very sad because she
didn't know how she ws.i going to
make Christmas happy for the chil
dren. The little fairy flew right up on
the nurse's shoulder and whispered,
"Why don't you write Santa for the
funniest clowu he has and then all
the children can lie In bed and watch
blm dance?"
Tne nurse never guessed it was a
fairy talking to her, but she sat down
end wrote Santa a letter and asked
for Just what the fairy had told her.
Then she rushed out to the mall-box
and slipped the letter In. But the
little fairy snatched It right out so
she could take It back to Santa.
"Here's a letter we forgot," she said
as soon as she arrived.
"Well, well," said Santa, "we can't
forget any letteri." Then he read
It, and shouted, "Ho, there, here's a
whole bunch of little children who
Just want a funny clown bring me
one Oh I Bring Plnocchlo. Hell
have children to piay with all the
year long."
I can tell you that shout made
Plnocchlo happy. He stood light up
and did a cart wheel and a couple
of little Jig steps. And Inga, who
had been watching, smiled so hap
pily, because she knew she was going
to some dear little girl, and she want
ed Plnocchlo to be Just as happy as
she was going to be.
"I'm so glad, so glad," she cried,
and the two of them Joined hands
and danced all around the toyshop
floor.
"Now, my children, 8anta said,
"this Is our list day together. I hate
to see you go, but I know ?ou will
do a great deal of good In the world.
Always remember me."
"We will;' shouted the toys. "Come
and see us when you can."
Then In bustled Mrs. Santa with
her arms loaded with cookies and
cups of steaming hot chocolate.
"We certainly must have a last
party," she cried. "In a minute you'll
all be tiding through the snow filled
sky and you'll need something warm
to start on.
So they had a fine party and Pln
uccnlo did his last dance for the toys.
Just as the clock struck six Santa
began piling the bags of toys Into
his huge sleigh, and the elves h tic ti
ed up hts ftnt "elndeer so that he
could start out on his trip.
Tomorrow morning will be Christ
mas. And Just as soon as it's light
Just as the clock struck six, the
elves hltitted ud Santa's reindeer so
he could start out with his load of
toys.
you'll be running downstairs to see
what Santa has left. Look very close
for remember some little girl Is go
ing to get Inga, the beautiful magic
doll, and it may be you. Then, too,
some of the soldiers and toys I've told
you about may be in your stocking.
As for Plnocchlo, he's sure to make
the little hospital children happy,
for he's bubbling, over with happiness
himself.
Above all, remember to love your
toys, for they will love you.
AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOtJ
ALL.

What's all those sketches down by
your teet, Babs!"
"Show them If you like, Barbara,"
came from Mark. Something odd,
Armitage thought, behind his per
mission. With a quick movement the girl
swept up the skeiMies and put them
down at Mark's side.
"No," she said. "Yon show them,
if you like."
Armitage watched the two ol
them look at each other.
"I'd rather you put them on the
fire for me," said Mark. Then, at
last, Armitage saw hor smile. . . .
Ho secants aware that Mrs. Lode
ly was arranging matters.
"Slip along and change your
frock, Barbara. Mr. Armltage'l! wait
twenty minutes or so, I'm sure, and
In the Meantime Mark can dig out

"In twenty mlnutos, then, Mr.
Armitage?" asked the aoft, very
clear voice. "But you won't mind
It I don't make It lntot I have to be
at work at nine tomorrn? .""
Armitage stood as and the
other woman passed out ot the
room. Then he let Mark Lodely
cover his conch with portfolios.
But It wj Mark Lodely he was
studying as he bent over the work:
for It was trom Mark Ledely that
he would have to buy Barbara.
