REAL NEWS
THERE was a sound at the back
door, and Mrs. Drill hurried In.
"Well, I never," lb began. "You
could bare knotaad me down with a
featber when Scarlet told me yon'd
come borne. Well, 1 never."
"There wasn't time to let Ton
know," Goorjls laid; her spirits
rose at eight of the woman'a kindly
face. "I've Just made some tea 11
you'd like some, but there's no need
for you to stay, I can see to my
self."
"Tea's always welcome," Mrs.
Drill said and fetched another cup.
"Well, and what do you think of tbe
news. Miss Georgle?"
"You mean about the bouseT"
"Yes, and about your uncle. FU
bet you was surprised."
"What about my uncle?" Georgle
asked blankly.
Mrs. Drill stared at her.
"You don't mean that he hain't
told you?" she asked. "Well, 1 nev
er. I should have thought It would
bare been the first thing he would
hare said, but perhaps be don't like
to, him a gentleman born anyway
as you might say."
. "What are you talking about?"
Georgle asked Impatiently. "He told
me he was going to sell the house It
he could, and that he was going to
lire at the Boar's Head. But If
there's anything else "
"Lire at the Boar's Head Is right
enough," Mrs. Drill said with deep
satisfaction. "Of course he's going
to lire at the Boar's Head seeing thft
he's going to marry Mrs. Spears."
"Marry Mrs. Spears!" Georgle
laughed. "I don't believe you," she
said firmly. "I can't believe you,"
she amended her words. "Why, Mrs,
Spears doesn't even like Uncle Ed'
ward."
"Ah, that's what she told you I ex
pect," Mrs. Drill said knowingly.
"But she don't tell everything to you
or to anyone' else. She'a one of the
deep ones. She's going to marry him
alright, and a fine step np It Is for
her. They're going to be married
next week In London. Everyone in
tbe village knows about It, Miss
Georgle. Most of 'em think that your
Ma knew, too, seeing that she took
you away all In a hurry like.
couldn't believe my ears when I
beard that you'd come home again."
Come' home! Georgle laughed,
wondering If there was anyone In
the world more homeless than she.
LATER on In the evening, having
first made sure that her uncle
was asleep In his study, Georgle
walked down to the Boar's Head.
The village seemed silent and de
serted, but as she walked she seemed
to hear a slow, limping footstep be-
- hind ber, and once she turned her
head quickly, almcrt expecting to
see Nicholas Boyd's tall figure out
lined against the dark sky.
If only If onlyl She burrled on,
trying vainly to outstrip the longing
which she knew must go with her
to the end of ber life. It seemed hard
that she must be one of the faithful
sort, she thought wistfully; otber
girls whom she bad known In Lon
don laughed and talked about the
number of their love affairs as If It
was quite natural to have half a
dozen.
The Boar's Head was gay with
light, and the sound of the radio.
Georgle loved music, but tonight
even the cheery Hit of a jats tune
deepened the ache In her heart.
Georgia pushed open the glass
panelled door which was proudly
marked "Hotel Entrance" and came
face to face with Mrs. Spears.
For a moment they looked at one
another silently, then Mrs. Spears
eald helplessly: "Well, I never.
Come right In. I was just thinking
about you."
"I only came back (his afternoon,"
Oeorgle eald.
"So I hear." Mrs. Spears looked a
little nervous, which must have been
an unusual experience for her, as
she led the way to her own private
room.
"Take a seat," she said affably.
"And tell me all the things you've
been doing In London."
"There Isn't much to tell," Geor
gle said. "And t came to say to
ask" she foundered helplessly.
MRS. SPEAHS rushed Into tbe
breach.
"To ask If It'i true that I'm going
to marry your vnole. Well, yes, It Is.

I expect you're surprised. I'm a bit
surprised myself to tell you the
truth, but there, I'm lonely and so's
he. so wben be said why not be lone
ly together, 1 said Rlght-oh! and
there It was."
She patted ber golden balr com
placently. "Yoa needn't be afraid
that I won't look after him," she
added.
Tin not," Georgle said. "I'm only
afraid that living here, he will drink
himself to death."
Mrs. Spears laughed.
"Well, that's something you need
never be afraid of," she said confi
dently. "I'm mistress here and be
knows It, and what I say goes. Let
me tell you, my dear, he'll be more
sober living in this house than he's
been tor yours, and It you come back
In a month's time you won't know
him and that's a fact."
And seeing you" Mrs. Spears
went on, "makes me think of thai
Mr. Boyd I had here before you wont
away. You don't ever hear anything
of him I suppose?"
"Do you?" Goorgle asked.
"Well, I hour a bit now and then,
but you can't bellove half you hear
and that's a fact. Thoy said his op
eration was a failure, poor man."
She was struck by a bright idea.
What about a little drink just to
celebrate tbe occasion? Just you
and me togotber?"
"Yes." Georglo said.
"Half a bottle of the best Bubbly,"
Mrs. Spears said heartily. "I don't
suppose you're exactly delighted to
have me for an aunt, but there's no
body I'd rather have for a niece than
you, Miss Georgle, and that's a tact."
And as she passed Georgle on her
way out to the bar she stooped and
deposited a smacking kiss on the
girl's cheek.
"There, now," she said. "And don't
you worry about your uncle. He'll be
alright with me."
I know he will,'- Georgle said
gratefully, and she was conscious
of a little warm fooling round her
heart as she realised that though lite
might be unkind, In this woman she
had at last found a friend.
