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.

A FAMOUS FLAVOR
a.-m a.
"Mind?" He stared at her. "Mind
what?"
"My coming home."
"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.
