A, MORNING STAR BYSOPSlSl Smftv Ttllon hat nt last taken stent to divorce tht terrifylttaly upright Edwin Barnet, if hose fine honesty is overbalance by hie mental Inelasticity Emily hat von her father ana mother to her tide, hat found herself rather the heroine of her home taicn lor her derision, and hut pont to visit her school friend, Judith, at ifor ton flail, her husband's plantation. There is a little pain in the visit, i.hoicever. because Judith's brilliant brother David it the man Emily tlrsl loved. Chapter 87 CARROLLTON ONCE MORE JUDITH grinned adoringly after young David. "His mother's sunny disposition," she chuckled. "Come on up and get the Alabama sand out of your ears." Whllo Emily bathed and changed Judith lay flat on her back on a chaise lounge and chattered Inces santly. " She was Incredibly unchanged; In appearance she looked the same ma ture and self-sufficient eighteen that she had been almost eight years ago. Suddenly she raised herself on one arm and looked keenly at Emily. "Of course It's none of my busi ness and I know i shouldn't ask. but I can't stand the strain any longer Emily darling, you were so very iraguo In your letter; Is this break permanent?" "The sooner I get used Emily nodded slowly. "Very." Judith collapsed on the couch and illnkod at the celling, "Thank Uodl I know It couldn't work and I'd been lorrlbly afraid you wore the kind vho would grin and bear It to the litter end." "I might have," she confessed, "It j hadn't found out accidentally that be was doing the same thing. Not grinning, because he Isn't that, sort, but bearing It." "Toll me about it," Judith com manded. Emily told her, taking scrupulous care to recount her own share In the failure. Judith brushed that care lessly aside. "1 know; I know. You were Just as much to blame as he was, but I'd have cast you off If you hadn't been." Hor eyes sparkled. "This Is better than I dared to hope. Now you can stay on Indefinitely and we can have a gorgeous time!1' Emily protosted laughingly. "We can't do everything your tone Im plies. I'm In a delicate position, re member." "Not down here, you aren't. It's a position that this outlll will thor oughly understand and sympathize wtlh." . "Hut do they have to know any thing nbuut tt?" she asked In con sternation. "1 thought we wouldn't even mention It." Judith scowled at her. "Have you, or have you not, left your husband? And If they know It In Elston It will lenk down here soonor or later, so you may as well be brazen about It." SHE sighed. "All right I suppose the soonor I got used to It the better off I'll be." Judith rose. "Dorlnda will unpack the trunk and the rest of those things. Come on down and let me show you to Aubrey." Emily had been prepared to like Aubrey Morton tor Judith's sake, but she had reckoned without Ju dith's unerring Instinct for people. Aubrey was tattlah, as Judith had said; with glasses and not much hair. He was barely as tall as Judith and was obviously ten or twelve years older, but you knew Immedi ately that he was Just the sort of man Judith should have married. Behind the glasses his eyes were Urn Feb; Torpedo.ahaped LINTON. Ind.

Santa Clam," be said; "somebod; you hear about but never see." His rolce was a musical drawl more reminiscent of the cotton fields than the Carroll voices, which had been tempered with Virginia metlcu lousness. Emily liked him at once.' "I know It," she apologized. "1 don't deserve to be remembered." He smiled. "If Jnde ever get on your trail you haven't got a chance of being forgotten. Not," he added thoughtfully, "that 1 blame bar." Judith Interrupted gaily. "While we're exchanging bouquets let's have a cocktail." JUDITH lifted the glass that Au J brey bad handed her. "To the future!" Aubrey glanced sharply at her, and watching them Emily saw thai neither expression bad changed, but that Judith had managed with ( single slight inflection to convey thi entire situation to her husband. She sensed too that Aubrey had accepted tt and, aecur In his con fidence In Judith's Judgment, had approved It. That, she realized wltb a surge of longing, waa what mar riage should mean; that waa what she and Edwin would never have achieved In a lifetime. to It, the better." She lifted her own glass, thinking as she drank of the vast spiritual difference that separated Elston from Morton Hall. Dinner, even with the three of them, had a festive air; tor Judith possessed the family gift tor endow Ing the most casual act with cere mony. During the meal she talked Incessantly. "1 didn't plan any sort of party tor tonight; there's too much to talk about. After I've had a detailed ac count of the last tew years I'll call In the neighbors and show you off, but not tonight." "I'm glad you didn't," Emily con fessed. "I'd rather get re-acqualnted first. Not," she added to Aubrey, "that It's a bit difficult. I've slmplj taken up where I left oft eight yeart ago." Judith grinned. "That's my amaz ing personality. Except that you must have It too, because Just see lng you makes ma feel like a glr.' again." Aubrey chuckled, and beamed lm partially at them both. Kmllj thought with amusement that bis at tltude towards Judith suggested as old hen who had hatched a youni swan.

"Carrollton la on the market again," she said. Aubrey stopped undrosslng and looked suspiciously at her. He didn't bother to remind her that It was hi who had given her that piece of In formation: he know that Judith wai merely thinking aloud. "So what?" "It can be bought tor the prlct of the mortgage. And since Harrow didn't mortgage It until after the market crash the amount can't b much. Bankors weren't having any plantations by that time." "It's probably not worth much," Aubrey reminded her. "Harrow hasn't spent a cent on It. and the land's been going down ever since h bought 1L What are you up to now?'
