Bsrnie, cannot lace obscurity, and remain behind in New York. Juet after the ship eaite a timid, elin girl brings a bunch of roeee toth- fallen star's cabin because ehe thought he looked lonely. But he flings the roses into the tea, and rudely turns ' the girl out. Chapter Four GEORGIE BANCROFT GEORGIB hid been watching Nicholas Boyd all the morning. The long promenade deck was al most deserted. The sky was grey and overcast In spite of the Intense beat, and there was an ugly heavy well that made the great liner lurch from side to side like a drunken man. Georgia Bancroft, har, hands hrust deep into the pockets ot her red jacket, and her loft hair flying In the hot breeze, leaned against the rail and locked wistfully across to where Nicholas Boyd lay full length In a deck chair, his eyes closed, one hand hanging limply by bis side. They were two days out from New York and It was the first time she had seen him since she had tapped t hlB naVIn Ann, with tiar ntfnrinv of roses. The girl who shared Georgia's cab in (neither ot them oould afford to have one to themselves) bad spoken to her about Nicholas. "How awfull A real fallen star. Isn't het I'd ratber be dead. No wonder he keeps out ot everyone's way. I shouldn't be surprised It be doesn't Jump overboard before we get to Southampton." her subject. "Now Nicholas Boyd In the films was the one I liked. He made love Just like well! 1 used to wish I was the girl," she sighed ecstatically. Georgle said "Pooh I that's not real lovemakln; . People can't kiss real ly properly when they know that half the world Is going to pay fifty cents to see them do If "Fifty cental" Nelly was scornful. "A quarter Is my price, not that Nicholas wasn't worth more. Gee, It's awful all being disfigured (or life like he Is, isn't If" GEORUIE'3 color deepened. "I don't think It makes any differ ence," she said stoutly. "Once you like a person you always like them, no matter what happens to them. At least 1 do." Nelly stared, "Here, I say, are you craiy about him?" she demanded. "Of course not, but It's a shame, everyone saying he's ruined for life. Scars often fade quite away, and anyway, they make people more In tor ..ting; some people. I think life's horrible." But Nelly would not allow this. "It's what you make it," she de clared with all the Inexperience ot two and twenty, "I was like yot once all Ideals and things, but no' Georgia looked wistfully at Nicholas. sue was a cheery little Cockney soul who bad been on a visit to a brother In Chicago. . "He paid my fare or I eouldn't have come," she told Goorgle with to have stayod with him for ever, but bis wife didn't hit H with me. She's from Boston." She waited hopefully for some comment; she loved talking, but Georgle bad no comment to make, A ITER moment Nelly Foster tried again. "Where have you "To New York, to see my moth er" Nelly's eyes opened wide. "Your motherl You don't sayl Doesn't your mother live with you "No; she married again an American, and they don't want me to live with them. I don't want tn either. I'm quite happy." "Do you live alone?" "No, with an uncle. He lets me do aa I like." The two girls looked at one an other with mutual Interest. . "I oould have married out there It ri liked," Nelly volunteored, "I could havo married a man In the canning business and have stayed In Chloago, but be was old" she shrugged her shoulders. "He was fat, too, and bis chin was all bristly when he kissed me." "When he kissed you?" Georgle looked scandalised. "You didn't let him kiss you L you didn't like him?" Nelly laughed. "Of course 1 did. That was the only way I could and out if I loved him or not It's a good way, too," she added shrewdly. "You romember that. If you can't stand a man kissing you, you can't stand him -t all." "I've never kissed a man," Geor gle said. "Some of them don't know how to kiss," Nelly went on, with the air of one wbo thoroughly understands now, my lamb. The less you expect, the more you get." Georgle picked up her scarlet coat and dragged It on ratber Impatient ly. "I'm going on dock," she said. "Hope you'll ";iJoy It," Nolly rt tortod, turning over on her pillow. "The boat's rolling like old Harry, and the sight ot the sky would make me sick for - week." So Georgle had gone up on deck alone and found Nicholas Boyd. He looked lonely she decided, as she leaned against the railings a little distance from him and wistfully watched him. He lay very still, his slouch hat pulled well down ovor bis eyes, on arm hanging limply by his side. Georgle bad seen pictures of Ber nie Boyd, and hadn't admired her very much, though aha had been honest enough to realize that per haps there had boon Just a shade ot Jealousy In her criticism. Bernla was very blonde, almost like one ot the china shepherdesses that atood on the mantelpiece in Georgle's uncle's study; ehe bad a "cold" smile, too, that lookod aa If It was meant for unseen crowds rathor than for any spoclfio person. And she was not with her husband. Georgle wondered what Boyd was thinking about; he lay so still, his lame log resting on a cushion. Georgle sighed; those roses Nich olas bad thrown away bad cost her throe dollars which would have been very useful for other things. Not that she grudged the expenditure; she would have paid six gladly It It would bave given Nicholas any pleasure but It did seem rather waste. The ship gave a sudden tremen dous lurch, causing Georgia almost to loss her balance, and when she had recovered It she saw that th book which had been lying face downwards on Boyd's knee h sllpped and fallen to the deck. It was an opportunity and George took It unhesitatingly. (Copyright, nst, Doubleday Doran Perforce, Nicholas Itarnl more bout Georgia, tomorrow. Two Drown In Idaho Stream. MOSCOW, Idaho, June 6.
