Chapter z THE LETTER GEORGIA vest to London to meet CllBord Aaher with the lull de termination that abe was not going to enjoy herselt. Her head ached a little and aer eyes were red with crying. By the morning post she bad re ceived a lette.- from ber mother. "Bishop " ao ber mother wrote "la 111, or imagh-ee that he la. He Insists that be must see a specialist, a German specialist, and so we are eomlns to London tor a week or two, and tben going on to Berlin. I should have thought there were plenty ot rood doctors out here, but Bishop la so obstinate (what n.an la not?) and go we are silling next week. We shall be staying In London, of course, but you must come and me." 80 Bishop was 1U1 Oeorgie felt sorry. Not that the big, red-laced man with the loud rolce bad ever troubled tc be nice to ber, but It seemed patbetlo aomehow, to think ot anyone so vigorous as be always appeared to be, haying to go so far as Germany to get cured. She broke the newa to her uncle with great misgiving. "Mother's coming home," was ber brief an nouncement. . "Hornet" Edward Bancroft glared t ber. "What the devil li she com ing for anyway?" "Bishop Is ill," Georgia said. "I'm not surprised." There was Infinite satisfaction in ber uncle's voice. "My own brother was the Brst fool she killed off, and now she's found a second. Well,.she can't some here and you can tell her ao." Georgia smiled as aba thought of ber mother's extreme daintiness and love ot luxury; abe could hard ly Imagine ber In a bouse where there waa very little comfort, and ' most Indifferent cooking. "She doesn't want to come here," she murmured. Bancroft frowned. "And why not t should like to know?" be demand ad. "Isn't tbls bouse good enough (or ber? Aren't I good enough?" "It's qul'.e good enough," Georgia said politely. Bancroft drew the cork from a (resb bottle of whisky with a loud bang. "Humph! Well, what's the matter with Blshoi anyway?" "I don't know; he's going to Ger many to see a specialist." Bancroft snorted. "Germany In deed!" he growled, "People are like a lot of sheep; one lead' and they all follow. I hear that that fellow Boyd la oft on the same traok; going to get his face put right or some thing. Twaddle!". EDWARD BANCROFT went on, satisfied that be had found a tople after his own heart. "They're all the same, these Dim fellows. Poplnjaysl They're not men at all; If they were they .wouldn't curl their hair and wear orsets." "He doesn't curl his hair or wear oorsets," Georgia said hotly, then broke off In contusion, conscious of ber uncle's suspicious eyos. "Oh! and how do you know?" he demanded. "I don't know, at least ha doesn't look as If be does, and be got bis face hurt by doing a very herolo thing." "Pooh! Press stunt" Bancroft de clared. "I daresay It the truth's tnown be got his jaw broken In a brawl; you can't tell me!" Georgia turned away; ber face was burning with anger, and ahe was afralk to trust herself to say any more. Edward Bancroft might know a great deal about brawla, but be certainly knew nothing about Nicholas Boyd. She went upstairs and dressed to go to the station. It waa a bore, ahe decided, having to meet a man In whom one waa not really Interested; why did lite al ways do that fort ot thing? "Never the time, the place and the loved one together" she had read that somewhere In a book, and It atruck her as being painfully true. It was a Una morning, and London was a glorious place, but It waa all spoilt because she was going to meet the wrong man. She drew near to the Boar's Head with a feeling ot great embarrass ment; in the sane light of today it seemed Impossible that yesterday she had been so utterly mad aa to tell a man, and a married man, that she loved him. That was another pitiful thing about lite, that people must never tell the truth abont things that mat tered tremendously; the correct thing waa to pretend to care noth ing at all about a man until he had begged and Implored yon bait a dozen times at least to say that you liked blm. Just a little. Georgia won dered how many times Nicholas had bad to ask Billy It ahe liked him. As she passed the main entrance to the "hotel" aa Edward Banoroft Insisted on calling the little Inn, Mrs. Speara came to the door; she saw Oeorgie and waved to her. Georgie stopped reluctantly; It seemed a long time since she bad bad a conversation with Mrs. Spears. The morning sunshine shone on the good woman'a dyed hair and heavy make-up, making her look grotesque (almost like a clown, Oeorgie thought) and tben was ashamed; what did It matter bow one looked If one's heart was In the right place? "And where have you been biding all this time?" Mrs. Spears asked In her hearty voice. "I was wonder ing If eomeone bad run off with you. It must be weeks since we met." "It's not very long," Georgie said uncomfortably, and she gave her hat a little tug, bringing it further down over ber eyea and the ngly bruise which bad not yet faded. She had deliberately kept out ot the way of Mra. Spears because she had known bow Impossible It would be to explain that bruise away. "So you've lost Lovelock," Mra, Speara went on affably, as If It were a matter of no Importance. "Well, we've all got to die, and It'a no use "Suing. Life's made up of partings. Isn't It? you'll And that out for your self soon enough If yon haven't found It out already." WASHINGTON. June ST. (UP) The cost of living to wage earners has Increased for the first time since September, 1930, the national Indus trial conference board disclosed In a survey today. The Increase, amounting In May to about elght-tentha of one per cent waa due largely to a 8.0 per cent rise In food price. This Increase Is much larger than the usual seasonal advance from April to May, the board reported. Food prices still are It per cent below May lest year year and 38.8 per cent under four years ago.

L SAN FRANCISCO, June 27 AP Southern Pacific Co. announced today It was speeding up Its working schedule In shops, putting 3993 men on a S-dsy week, and replacing the 3-day week which hsa been In effect about 3 years. The new schedule be came effective today. The faster schedule of operation In shops. It was explained, has been necessitated by Increased psssenger and freight traffic. . . BIG WHEAT SHIPMENTS SLATED FROM SEATTLE SEATTLE. June 27. (AP) Five million bushels of wheat will be load ed for the orient, the Seattle port commission announced today as a re suit of a contract entered into with the newly organized continental Pa cific grain corporation, v S'MATTER POP By C. M. PAYNE SHB sounded qnlte cheerful about It, and a faint admiration orept Into Georgle'a heart. It was rather wonderful to be able to talk about death and partings so easily. "And I'm losing Mr. Boyd," Mrs. Speara went on. "And I don't mind admitting that I'm aorry. He never gives any trouble, and be makea tha place Interesting. The business m tbe bar has doubled alnce be came; wonderful how anxious people an to catch a glimpse of a 01m star, even It be Is one ot the has-beens.' "He Isn't a bas-been," Oeorgie sale quickly; her color rose. "Nobodj will ever take his place; he'll al ways be remembered." Mrs. Speara raised her darkened browa. "Well nowl" she aald. She looked at the girl and smiled. "Ah, It's a flni thlbg to be young and full ot ro mance," aha aald tolerantly. "I wai the same when I waa your age. I re member waiting for hours outaldt the stage door Just to see Qeorgi Alexander come out. And that'a i good many yeara ago," aha added Ah well. It'a all to the good If yoi can make an Ideal ot a man, they lei you down aoon enough." "Did George Alexander let you down?" Georgie asked Interestedly; she had never heard ot George Alexander. Mrs. Speara laughed. "Bloaa your heart, I was only one ot hundreds ot sentimental girls who adored htm,'' ahe said cheerfully. "I got over It, and you'll do the same, Nice aa Mr. Boyd'a alwaya been to me, I expect he'a a devil to live wltb It the truth's known; anyway his wife doesn't seem to worry much about blm, does she?" It waa on the tip ot Georgle'a tongue to say, "but she's coming home," then aha stopped; It was no business ot Mrs. Speara. "They're all tha same, these fa mous men," Mra. Spears went on with a great feeling ot superiority. "They've all got the knack ot mak ing you feel you're the only woman In the world; you'll do, it there'a no body else handy, and tben . . . well, you can't tell me anything about men." "I don't want to," Georgie aald almost resentfully; she gave ber hat another Jerk down over her eyes "Well, I must go. I've got to catch a train." It waa beyond Georgia to under stand It all; her thoughts broke, and she began to run, aa she saw tha train puffing alowly Into the station. 'Copyright. ItSS.
