THE CABLEGRAM
GEORGIE vent ' home with a
(trail feeling of excitement. It
almost leemed at It the closed doors
of Lite, as other people knew It, bad
slowly began to open and let her
through.
She sighed and let herself Into
the house. It was Ave o'clock and
there was a smell of burning tout
In the house; why was It that Mrs.
Drill could never make toast with
out burning It, Georgia wondered
Impatiently, and she thought rather
wistfully of the wonderful lunch
he had had; tea would probably
hare been Just as good It they bad
had It In the same restaurant.
Mrs. Drill came out o; the kitchen.
"Tour uncle's been hollerln' all
ever the place for yon," ahe said.
"Where la her" Oeorgie asked.
"Gone out, but there's a telegram
on the dining-room table, and he
Mil I was to tell you to read It"
Oeorgie went Into the dlnlng
room; the telegram lay on the tray
Reside an empty tumbler, and ahe
took It np with a vagua feeling of
distaste.
Whoever could be sending a tele
gram T She could not remember ever
haying seen one In the house be
fore. This was on different paper to
the usual ones too; she looked at
the printed heading curiously.
It was a cable, brief but to the
point
"Arriving Friday the twenty-sec
ond. Evelyn."
Oeorgie alwaya thought It seemed
funny her mother should Invariably
sign herself by her christian name
and not "Mother."
raaay tne twenty-second was
next Friday; funny they should have
troubled to cable her at all. She was
et such little Importance In the life
of this woman who would sign her-
(elf Evelyn.
Mrs. Drill spoke from the door
way.
"No bad sews, I hoper She was
all Inqnlsltlveness. t
"No, only that my mother Is com
ing home," Oeorgie said.
"That will be nice." Mrs. Drill said
a trifle disappointedly; to her way
of thinking telegrams only meant
one thing, and that was bad news.
She waited a moment and then
went back to the kitchen to finish
burning the toast.
IHun Eawara Bancroft came
vi home later in the evening, he
oould talk of nothing else but tbe
cablegram; he seemed to consider
It aa a personal Insult.
"Wasting money the kind of
thing an empty headed woman
would do. Why the devil does she
want you to know that she arrlvea
on Friday the twenty-secondT She's
not coming to aee you, I'll bet a
nrer."
1 think It was kind of her,"
Oeorgi said. ,
"Kind!" Edward Bancroft roared
Ilk a bulL "She doesn't know the
meaning of the word. Where's the
whlakyr
Oeorgie escaped. She went out
Into the garden and looked at the
noon. It waa a young moon Uke a
thin sickle, and It lay on Its back,
which Lovelock had alwaya de
clared was a bad sign.
She supposed that tho same moon
shone down on Germany, where
Nicholas would soon be; they would
nave that In common anyway; not
that he cared whether they had any
thing In common or not.
' Oeorgie opened the creaking Iron
gate and looked out Into the road.
It waa nearly nine o'clock, and
verythlng was very stllL
Dp In a tree somewhere an owl
called mournfully, and away In the
distance a dog was barking; they
were the only aounds to be heard
xcept a slow footstep coming down
the road.
A slow, uneven footstep.
I Georgia's heart missed a boat;
she would know that tootatop any
where; surely It she were dead and
It passed over hor gravo ahe would
know It
She stood staring, her heart beat
ing fast.
Boyd came on, slowly; was he
coming to the fcousef Coming to
see her? She could hardly breathe.
HE drew level with the gate, and
stopped, looking towards the
house; then after a moment be went
slowly on again.
Georgia could bear It no longer;
she ran out Into the road.
"Mr. Boyd"
He stood still at once, turning to
face her. She tried to think of some
thing to say, but of all the hundreds
of words that olamored at the door
of her brain she could speak none.
Then be said

Georgia felt the doora of life open.
"It's a lovely night,"
'Georgia looked ap at the moon
again.
It's on Its back." ahe said, "and
that's a bad sign, Isn't Itr but even
as sho spoke her heart denied the
words; how could anything be a
bad sign when this man waa with
hert
"Have you been to London?" he
asked.
"Yes."
"Have t good time?"
"Tea."
The silence fell again, which
Oeorgie broke recklessly.
Tm so glad to see you. I wanted
to say how sorry I am about yes
terday."
Sorry for what?"
For being such a fool," she said
vehemently. "I don't know what
made ma say all the silly things I
did."
Ton dldnt mean them?" he
asked quietly.
She shook her head.
"I'm glad," he said. Tm glad to
see you again too, now we can shake
hands and part friends, can't ffo?"
"When are you going?"
"Tomorrow."
"Ohl" ahe did not know the deso
lation that rang through the little
word, but after a moment she went
on swiftly: "Can I walk down the
road with you? Nobody will see us I
And It It's tor the last time"
"Don't yon want a hat?"
"No. I hardly ever wear one."
"Come along then."
Qeorgle caught her breath with a
quick sigh; the moon might be on
Its back, but otherwise all was right
with the world.
