A yrei SYNOPSIS: Oeorgtt Banorolfe mother hae ordered her out ol hey tight, becauee eht ha misinter preted Ueorgie'e rtlottont with yicholae Boyd, the former movie etar, Kicholae1 wife, Bernie, found Georgle and Nicholas together in hie apartment, where Georgia had gone to bid him good-bye, and now Bernie hoe written a letter to Georgia mother, Almoet woree, the latter hae destroyed the tare well tetter Nicholas tent Qeorgie. Chapter it THI RETURN fHE TlUaf looked Just tha same, and yet to Georgia, peering out of the window of Mr. Scarlet's old cab, lteeemed as If she was coming back Into an entirely new world of which she yet knew every landmark. As the old cab swung with a pro testing creak round the corner Georgia saw the tall holly-hedge around her uncle's neglected garden, looked taller still and mors ragged, soaring above the broken wall like a child that has grown out of last year's petticoat. She shivered a little as old Scarlet placed the whip In Us brass socket and climbed slowly down from the box, coming round to open the shabby door of the cab. "Had a nice holiday, MIsele?" he asked. "Yes, thank you," Georgia said, He hauled her luggage down from the top of tha cab, and with a belated sense of courtesy pushed open the Iron gate where the wooden plate which had once borns the name of "The Hollies" looked more weather-beaten and shamefaced than ever. "Are they expecting you. Hiss?" Mr. Scarlet asked. "No," Georgia said, "I Just came." She walked up the path to the house and pushed the door open, wondering If It bad ever been locked since she went away, Tha familiar atmosphere of the old shabby house rushed out to greet her, and she smiled faintly as she crossed the ball to her uncle's study. Nobody was there. Georgle went Into the kitchen. Nobody there either, but a Hre was burning brightly, and a row of clean tea-towels was hung to dry on a string stretching the width of the room. Georgle paid Mr. Scarlet, told him to leave her luggage In the ball, and went upstairs. Her bedroom door was shut, and she opened It with the eerie feeling that she was step ping back Into the past, a long way back. Cinderella who had driven away three months ago In a luxurious mo tor, had come back In Mr. Scarlet's cab to an empty house. The blinds were drawn down In this room and It smelt musty and aisusea. ' t Georgia drew tha blinds up and opened tha windows; It seemed a life-time since her last return home, when she had leaned from the win dow and picked a rose, fresh from the rain. Would Edward Bancroft be glad to aee her, or hod he grown used to being alone I The house did not soem to have suffered by her absence as she had half thought It might; it looked Just the same. It waa only she who bad changed so much, who had left everything worth having In Hie far - behind her. CHE took oS her hat and went , downstairs again, and as she reached the hall, she heard the fa miliar slam of tha creaking Iron gate, and then the almost violent opening of the front door under Ed ward Bancroft's hand. Ha looked not quit so red-faced or Ill-kept, for his hair was neatly brushed, and, wonder of wonders, he was wearing a new tie. He stopped dead on the cocoanut mat, and atared at her, then he said "Good Lord!" "I've come horns," Georgle said almost timidly. "What for?" he asked bluntly. She tried to smile; It was not much of a welcome when one wanted a welcome so badly, "They've had enough of me," she said. "Just what I expected," he said, and then, "Well, you don't look any better for your gay life." "I don't think It'a been very gay," Georgle said, and then, "How are you, uncle?" "How do you auppose I am?" he demanded. "Just tha same. Every thing's the same." . Ha went Into his study, and she heard him pouring out a drink. After a moment Oeorgte followed him. "I hope you don't mind," she said. Anderson Creek ANDERSON CREEK, July 34. (6pl.) -Jte MtcDowU wvnt to Keno to work In tb mill thli summer. Mr. Donlc and family waa in Tal nt Friday vcnln. " Mr. laa.

"If you thought I should, yon ought to have asked me first," was his retort. "You'll have to look after yourself, Mrs. Drill's taken the after noon off. Not that she's any good when she's here. I'm about sick of her, I can tell you. Sick of every thing." - "I'll make some tea," Georgle said. She went to tha kitchen and put the kettle on the lire. She didn't want any tea, but it was something to do; she leaned her head against the mantelshelf and watched the kettle with far-away eyes. It seemdd funny that there was no longer anything aha wanted to do, no place where she wanted to go. Tomorrow and all the tomorrows would be the same, monotonous and empty. She had not said goodbye to Bishop he had been out when she left the hotel, and Georgle had been glad. She did not want to think about Bishop any more. She did not want to think about anything any more; it would be wonderful It one could take a sponge and wipe everything from one's heart and mind which one wished to forget. Edward Bancroft appearod at tha kitchen door. "How long are yos going to stay?" he asked. 4 Georgie's eyes dilated. "How long?" she echoed. "That's what I said," he answered Irascibly. "How long are yon go ing to stay. I've a reason for ask ing." And then as she did not answer, he said "Have you Quarrelled with your mother?" "Yes, I suppose so." He granted. "I'm not sitrrjrlsod. I knew It would happen. She was Jealous of you, I suppose." The kettle boiled over, and Qeorgie burrled to the rescue. WHEN she had removed It to a " safe place she looked at her uncle again. "Why did you ask me how long I waa going to stay?" she asked. Hla eyes seemed to avoid hers. "Because I'm giving up the house," he said. "Giving it up!" "Leaving It Selling It It I get a chance to aell It," he answered tes tily. "I'm flick of living alone. It's no llfo tor a dog, let alone a man." "Whore are you going to live then?" Goorgle asked faintly. "At tha Boar's lioad If you must know. It'll cost about halt this place does and a darned sl&ht more com fort. Not that you'd care about It" "I don't mind where I live," Goorgle said helplessly. Was there no corner In the world where she was really welcome? "Well, you can't live there," Ban croft said flatly. "So you'd better make some arrangement. You've got your own money, and the beg garly pittance your mother allowed me for your board here can be added to It I darosay." He turned on his heel and left her. Goorglo felt dazed, somohow she had never dreamed of this; the Hol lies was an Institution, she could not Imagine other people living In Us shabby rooms, she could not Im agine her uncle living anywhere qlse. "Make some arrangoment" What did he moan by that? That he did not want her, of course nobody wanted her. She made some tea and poured out a cup, but left It untouched. 'Make some arrangement That meant to live alona somewhere, with only her thougnts for company. She thought suddenly of Clifford Asher, the only soul In the world who really wanted her. It aeemed a pity that ahe did not return his at toctlon. As he had said, they might have boon so happy together. Until she went to America noth ing bad ever eeeniod to happen In Goorgle's life, and now In the space of a tow short months, so much bad happened that she felt bewildered and lost. Nicholas would be In Ireland by this time; her heart seemed to melt within her at the thought of him. 'A common film man, and a for gotten one at that," so Evelyn had described him. Well, there was one heart In tha world that would nover forget him, no matter how old and lonely It might grow.
