Mark It In ondon with Parrell Armltage. ' who is spending hie great wealth lavishly to cure Hark1 lameneee and launch htm a an artlat. Leila hat arrived in time to help Bar bara pack up tome of the Loitely family goode. Barbara I aghast at Uark'e conduct. Chapter 81 TRUTHS FOR BARBARA JfECHANICALLT Barbara went l on collecting the document that still bestrewed the table. Judy had aald that ot her, that aho was Jealous ot anyone else's power to help Hark. And she had denied that the accusation was Just. She still denied ttt It all the millionaires in the world banded together to help him, tor whatever reason, she would bless them and praise them. But when a girl, her rival tor Mark's favor, had to buy him off with a sum of money "I must pay yon back," she said, 1 have beon saving bard lately but now that I'm not to be married tor at least a year, I can afford to let some ot It go. Don't let's argue about this at least." Leila suddenly began to shout at her again. "Yon call everything 'argument' that yon want to close your mind to. Any discussion, any contradic tion Is 'argument' and you won't listen. Probably you're not listening now, you're telling yourself that s" I'm trying to stop your marrying , Hark because I want him. "That's quite true, I do want him, or I think I do. Or perhaps you're telling yourself that I want to marry Farrell because I like him so much. That's true, too; when he told me he'd fallen In love with you, I aald I'd help him get you." 'fYou bad no right to promise. Ton knew" "Knew! I knew you and Mark were engaged and planned to marry I But what ot thatT Engage ments are broken sometimes. Mar riages don't take place. Businesses are sold or just neglected. Interior decorators drop Tozeter whether ' Tozeter likes It or not and dash up to do Jobs tor famous aotresses and , millionaires. "Life Is a hazard and a risk, Bar bars, as well as looking ahead and saving and working, it's funny I'm no manner 'of use compared with you, but I can see that you're los ing such a lot. You plod and wait and feel quite sure yon love Mark and don't love Farrell and It's your duty not to listen to any argument about either and all the while real lite Is riding by!" The room was full ot the smell ot the lamp and the mustlness ot an old house, Barbara thought Irrel evantly how she had always hated : Kings Bnrn. Well, at any rate, what : ever happened, Mark would never have to live here again. "Go and And paper and string," suggested Leila In' her normal tones, "and we'll pack up this lit ter." Barbara went obediently. Paper and string should be In a kltehen drawer, but she was not surprised when she could not find them. While she rummaged she remem bered, In a miserable confusion, that the emerald pendant was now In Armltage's possession. Her face aoorched. She would have to ask him for It and, somehow, without explanation, let Mark have It back. "There's a piece ot paper here," called Leila. Barbara gathered up all she had been able to find and returned to the sitting room. Leila waa busy with a wrapping ot her own con trivance. "It's newspaper from the bottom of a drawer," she said. "Messy, ler.t It? And not too strong. We'd better use what yon found for an outer covering." "It makes a smaller parcel than I thought," remarked Barbara, pre occupied. Leila folded and turned and fas tened diligently. "How are yon getting back to ToxeterT The last 'bus will have Cone by now." "There'll be a train later. Or I can walk. It'a only my bead that la so tired. Exorcise will clear It" Til drive you," said Ljlla, over riding all this. "My car's Just down the road. And look here, could you possibly put t up for the night at ToxeterT I never felt less like Bouth-tbe-Water." "I could, hut I think you'd hate It A eamp bed; and bread and cocoa for supper. Besides " "Whatr "I've got to see your mother to morrow about some panelling and I don't much like deceiving her." Japanese Raid Singer Branch WASHINGTON, Jan. 10-(AP) The raid upon the Yokohama branch of the Singer Sewing Machine com pany, concerning which Ambamador Grew made representations to Foreign Minister Uohlda, la the third demon- fipT right m Barbara Leila turned out the lamps and marched EarbTu out ot the bouse. She seemed determined that no sen timental farewells should be taken of the place. She piloted Barbara out to the car, threw the parcel ot papers Into her lap and still In silence drove down the road and began to skirt the town. "You always make me sound such a prig," said Barbara, to her own surprise. There were tears In her eyes. "And I'm not, really." "You don't sound like a prig. Yon sound steady and steadiness la out ot date. And you sound beautiful, and It's not fashionable to have a beautiful voice. I don't wonder Farrell Armltage " "I wish you'd drive more care fully," protested Barbara In desper ation. "You very nearly ran over that old woman 1" "I've very nearly run over so many old women. Sit tight now, when we're over Upper Mallard bill I shall let her rip." Barbara sat tight She was not frightened; eh loved speed. She remembered how Farrell had let her drive bis big car and, later, bow he himself had driven, bis hands sure and steady on the wheel, his eyos sure and steady on this very road. Leila was letting the little scar let car lip but this was not speed. This was Just going too fast It didn't give one the same sense of power, the same absolute confi dence. She was Just beginning to realise that she would like to be driven by Farrell Armltage again, when Leila shot Into Toxoter, and drew up at the gate of the new bouse. Barbara Jumped out As though she had only now received the gift of sight she eyed her bouse, her unmade garden, the Lodely luggage on the front path (not on the back' porch as the gnrago man had been directed), the ugly wooden shed In which she worked. Ob, It was all so raw and she had jeon so proud ot It! "You can't put your car any where, I'm afraid, Leila." "I'll leave It out, this once. It's going to be a mild night ... I say, Barbara, you needn't worry your good little head about my deceiv ing ways. I want to dodge seeing mother tonight but I shall very probnbly want a chat with father tomorrow. Now let's battle with Judy's Junk." In spite of Barbara's protests, Leila insisted on taking the larger share of the task. Heartily cursing their weight and complexity, she ' hauled and hoisted the Lodely things Into Mark's quarters. Then she helped to prepare a room for herself. By the time supper was ready they could par take ot It In an almost Intimate allonco. The lost comradeship ot childhood hovered. Leila, thought Barbara, was nice, she was honest deep iown. It was amatlng that, when Farrell could have married her, he should ever have preferred anyone else. "I'll turn In, Barbara. I'm fright fully grntotul to you tor letting me be here." "I'm frightfully grateful to you tor not calling me Dabs. Judy al ways does and " "Judy! She makes me sick I" Bho swung oft and Barbara, too tired even to put away the supper things, went to bod also. But she was not too tired to dream. Again and again aha dreamod It that she stood in a darkened room and listened to the volcos ot people she could not see. But she knew who they were. Mark's voice she beard and Judy's, Leila's and Sugar Cane's. Some telling hor this, some that; and when eho put her hands to her ears, they spoke loudor. Only Farrell Armltage was aot there In that hoavy, unhappy darkness. And whon she woke, at dawn, the tears were on her face. Was It possible, she asked herself almost In fear, tli.nt they wcra tears connected In any way with lar.-ollt Leila got up, tiptoed to the parti tion botwoon her own and Bar bara's room, and listened a long time. There could be no doubt that Barbara was sleeping, al though It was not a quiet sleep. Then she returned to the bed (there was no chair), took a bulg ing envelope full of Mrs. Lodely's varl-colorod assortment ot papers from her handbag, and began go ing through them carefully and systematically. "That damn well finishes father," she muttered, as at last she turned out the IlRht "Whatever else may or may not be true, father'a goose Is cooked."
