Whereat all the young man has done to date has been to save All ton from a nasty situation which was of Daphne's making, and be have like the verlect gentleman throughout. Chapter 20 MAN BEMUSED ""UY was looking at the house, J father," Bald Alison. "He'd come down to see It and wanted to look at It again." She (rowned at her father's slight ly sceptical face and tapped Impa tiently with her foot. "Oh, 1 know It sounds queer, his staying and everything, but It wasn't If you'd been there you'd have done just the same!" Robert frowned. "1 don't know that I'm particularly pleased about bis staying there with you all night," he began, but the girl cut In fiercely. "You wouldn't have minded not one bit until she started Interfer ing!" "Alison!" "I know, father! But there are limits! Just because she doesn't like me's no reason why she should barge Into my affairs! It's no busi ness of hers. I'm grown up now and surely I can make friends If I like without asking her?" Robert put out a hand and drew bis daughter towards him. "Now, my dear, listen." "I don't want to listen! I think It's horrible! Just because a man helps me when I'm In a Jam, she has to think to make you think on!" Alison broke down; the strain of days of anxiety, of her night's vigil In the old house and today's dis tress, all gathered Into that one cloud-burst of tears. Because she seldom cried, because be had never seen her so upset, Robert was al most shocked. He gathered her In to his arms, soothing her with pet names and klBses until her last slow lobs subsided. "I'm sorry." She wrenched her elf free, dried her face. "There. You're overtired, that's all." Like all men, Robert Rede at tributed any feminine emotion to physical causes. "Dut you mustn't think, my pet, that Daphne doesn't like you. She's only too anxious to be friends, Alison, and was a Utile hurt because you didn't seem to like her. "She means bo much to mo, I can't bear to think that you and he won't get on. Poor little thing, she had such an awful time fancy, he was married at fifteen to a per fect brute years older than she was ho treated ber most abominably. "Lots of women would have left hlra, but Daphne stuck to him, even when he got III, and nursed him herself through the two years that he was 111. And then, when he died, she found that he'd gambled every thing he'd got away and left her absolutely penniless! I tell you, when 1 think of him, I see red! If only I can give her a little happi ness!" Suddenly, Impulsively, Alison turned and kissed him. "I'm sorry, dear!" That was true; she was sorry for her outburst. "I won't again. I expect we'll got on splendidly when we know each other. It was piggy of me to be up set . . , only, well, I love you so, and I felt " 'Jealous. Of course. It's natural. Children do." Robert was not con scious of quoting. "Dut you needn't be. I want you both; and she wants both of us, particularly you. By the way, I've got something for you I meant at first to give you a check for fifty pounds and then I thought you'd rather have this." HE felt In his pocket, drew out a I Jewel case. Alison took It. In side, on a dark blue velvet lining, lay a turquoise and diamond pen dant. A pretty little pendant. "1 got Daphne to choose It for you while we wore In Nice. I thought she culd pick one better than I could, she's got such good taste. It's a 'wel come home' present." "It's Just lovely! Thank you so much, darling. Thank her too for ine." Not for worlds at that moment would Alison have said aloud what was In her heart that she would rather have had a present at half the price chosen by her father him seir. She put It round her neck, fasten ing the tiny platinum chain and looked at herself In the glass. "It's lust perfect. Isn't It?" MORATORIUMSOUGHT WASHINGTON, June 5.

Wuioci. rnrnn 111 "iCAHlui It was worth any Me, she told her self, to see him smile like thai again. If turquoises do not look their best with red, well, what matter? Only when she went up to bed, taking off the pendant, she noticed something which made her stoop, peer closely at the bright platinum setting of the Jewel. The ring by which It hung upon the chain was slightly thinner at ths top, worn Into a tiny groove! All son's lips twisted a trifle as she stared down at the Jewel. Second hand! At best not worth more than thirty pounds. It was not even new! She began to visualize how Daphne Sumers could afford her hairdresser and that chic Paris dress! Well, It was the thought, after all, which counted; her father's thought. She put the Jewel away tenderly, thinking of blm; suddenly, with pang of dismay, Alison remembered she bad asked Guy to lunch. He would arrive tomorrow, expecting to lunch with her father. How could she explain to blm that the Invita tion was off? Tomorrow Daphne was to lunch, which made It all the more awk ward! Alison knew that she could not face a meal with Daphne and Guy feeling all the time that her father objected and that Guy was suspect. She knew that she would give herself away, be shy and be miserable with the thought pres ent always that those two were looking at her, trying to detect signs that she bad "lost her heart" or that Guy was a crook! Could she get hold of him and put him off? If she did, would he guess what had happened, never come again? He was not the kind of person who would thrust him self Into a house where he was not wanted! But that would he unbear able! She had a sense of chilly desola tion as she stood there, such a sense of loss that she was forced to face the truth. She wanted more than anything on earth to see him again! IT7HAT should she do? She was still wondering next day. Daphne appeared at half past twelve, In a taxi with half a dozen large parcels and, while Perter set tled with the driver, she opened the parcels in the library and showed the contents to Alison. Hugo lint books of wallpapers and a mass of furnishing fabrics. "I wondered If you'd help me darling, to choose my now coloring for the rooms upstairs?" She had a gushing way of. asking. "I feel sure you've got a wonilurful color sense!" Alison looked up startled from the letter she was writing. "The rooms upstairs? But I thought father was giving up thli house?" "He did think of it," agreed Daphne airily, "but we've talked 11 over and we feel that'd be a pity. After all. we must have a house Id London, too. while you are growing up. It's not as If he couldn't afford It, Is It?" The swift glance she shol at the girl dropped away unsatlslled for Alison knew nothing of hei father's affairs. "Which rooms are you going to do up?" she asked. "Our bedroom and the little sit ting room I'm taking for my bou doir." Mrs. Sumers spread out I length of patterned silk. "Look, Isn't this superb?" "Rather expensive, Isn't It?" All son ventured. "Oh, with furnishing stuffs It pay to get the best." said Mrs. Sumer lightly. "Let's go upstairs, shall wel Or would you rather not?" "No, no! I'd love to," Alison rose hastily, anxious to make amends for her explosion last night. Watching Daphne, more than chlo In a brand-now navy blue coaf trimmed liberally with mink, a navy dress Just touched with scarlet and a Roboux hat, drifting round the rooms which bad once been her own mother's, laying armhils of exotic fabrics on the exquisite embroid eries worked by the dead woman, was surely punishment enough! "I think sehra'd look marvellous here with black lacquer and red cushions don't you think so? Only then I'd just have to have glass over the Ore but perhaps you'd like that portrait of your mother In your bedroom?" "Father thought he'd like that picture moved to the library, or to his dressing room." put In Alison. "He mentioned It last night at din ner." (Copyright, tilt. Bvelyn l.
