Pretty J mulatto girls, wearing bandanas j and checked pine tiara dresses, erred Maryland tried chicken and , corn fritters. A string quartet j played lively tunes and Ere soon found herself dancing with spirit Later they were joined by a group of Dick's business friends and she enjoyed the venins so much she was almost able to forget that Bixby's had lost $2000 through a mistake tn bar department The next day she and Dick went for t. Ions ride in the country. Office cares seemed far away and Eve arrived home tired and sleepy : from being so long In the fresh air. But Monday morning as she neared j the office she began to feel nervous. Barnes would be back today and the dreaded Interview must take place. The advertising manager sum moned her to bis office at 9:30. Ere managed a tremulous em tie as she , entered but Barnes' face was grim. his voice crisp. 1 I scarcely need tell you. Mrs. Rader," he began, "that the price error In Saturday's coat advertise ment was the worst of the kind the store has ever had. I am amazed 1 that yon should have permitted ; such a blunder. j Eve started to speals but he si- i lenced her with ft curt gesture. "It is one of the things that simply . cannot be explained away or ; smoothed over, he continued. j "But you don't anderatand !" i she began. I "I understand the result of the , mistake and results are w hat count in this department," he went on. MI feared your marriage would 'in terfere with your interest in your work here. All I have to say now is don't let anything of the sort happen again!" There was ft grim 1 threat tn the words. Pu rious that he had not per mitted her to defend herself. Eve returned to her desk. Mona bad scored against her at every point. Eve was tempted to go to Mr. Bixby about the affair ; tempted, too. to resign. But she knew that 1 was exactly what Mona had hoped 1 might happen and therefore it was the one thing Eve determined not to da AT :30 ft rosy-cheeked little woman with a youthful face and graying hair appeared and asked for Mr. Barnes. Arlene es corted her to his office. A few moments later the buzzer sounded for Eve and she was Introduced to the newcomer. "This Is Mrs. Penney, said Barnes. "She will take Miss VI ad 'a place." Eve took the new artist into the outer office and introduced her to the rest of the advertising staff and to her new duties. "At first I felt sorry for her, Eve told Dick that night, "but after she began to work I knew why Barnes had hired her. That woman baa genius!" Mrs. Penney adjusted herself eas 11 to the office routine and Eve blessed her for that With things running smoothly again, Barnes re lumed a more pleasant attitude toward his co-workers and the ten si oa was rifted. Apparently mild and yielding, Mrs. Penney proved to be firm and self-reliant to a surprising degree. Even Mona, who usually found some means of gaining her own ends In such matters, could neither outwit nor wheedle Mrs. Penney Into taking care of minor details of office routine which were Mona's responsibility or exchanging lunch periods to suit Mona's whims. Mrs. Penney was a widow with young daughter who was In col lege. Every stroke of the artist's pencil was for the sole object of assuring her daughter's education. Mrs. Penney worked swiftly and untiringly eight hours s day longer when necessary. But she managed to turn out smart, fin Ished drawings at a speed which usually enabled her to leave the office promptly at closing time. Eve. looking ahend. felt that Mrs. Penney would be very helpful la putting the office routine on a prompt and efficient basis when ever the time came that Barnes should leave and Kve herself be In charge of the advertising office. A ND then Eve's mother came to visit her. Kate Bayless made tn Inspection tour of the apart ment, then shook her hend and do sided to spend the morning doing the things Eve found little lime ' for. Painstakingly she "did up" all ;he nifTLad curtains and washed the delicate crocheted rugs. To Dick s jeltght. she discarded the "bache lor buttons' which Kve had been snapping on bis clothes and re- placed them with buttons sewed on firmly with heavy thread. She spent three mornings darning heels and toes and catching runners In hosiery. And she made orange marmalade and supply of noodles calculated to last Into the summer. Every noon Kate met her duugh tor In the ladles' lounge at Bixby's. Here, while h waited, Kate sat at one of the deks and addressed poatftl cards to relatives, neigh bors end friends at home. During' luncheon Eve planned the afier ' Boon a entertainment for Uti m.it. er usually either shopping tout or ft matinee. i ti Lucy hjfno "Why I could almost forget then Is such place as home," Kate said one day "If It wnsnt for worrying whether Pa Is get tins enough to eat and tt he remembers to feed the canary! I'll bet my plants will be all dried op. too. for want of a Utile attention." At the end of ft week no amount of pers'iattlon could keep her In Lake City any longer "I've fixed you up r bit and that will give yon ft good start again." she told Eve. I'd much rather you'd stay at home and not try to do too much. No good can come of H and I'm worried r-bout your nerves. " When the train pulled out of the station Eve and Dick, standing be low, watched Kate smiling at them through the closed window. Ere's own ey es w ere bl u r red fts she waved ft last good by. TMiK week had passed so swiftly that her mother's departure ha'J been unexpected. Eve regretted that she had not found time to take her mother to the stock exchange and the brokerage office. "Mother gets such a kick out of seeing what makes the wheels go 'round and she's such a good sport thnt I like to show her new things." Ere told herself. She was watching the act iri ties of the market anxiously these days. Pure Soap, Int, had fallen tour points and then, following brisk selling, bad resumed Its former high aud plunged ahead. This fluctuation caused a similar one In Ere's spirits. And then Pure Soap, Inc reached the point Eve had been hoping for. Lest tt take another slump she hurried to the bank that noon and arranged to selL She felt rich as she ft cured her gain. After ail, one had to pay some price for success and this had cost her only anxiety. She was eager for a new venture In finance. i Eve left the office that evening promptly as the closing gong sounded. Sam was waiting at the side entrance for Arlene and they offered to take Eve home. Thus it happened that she reached their apartment before Dick, who had been detained by some extra work. Eve, still exulting over her financial gains, set light-heartedly to work to cook the dinner. It would be nice to surprise Dick by having the meal ready when he came. But scarcely had she start ed her preparations when the tele phone rang. There was ft perceptible pause after Eve answered. She was al most certain she heard a sharp in take of breath at the other end of the line and then ft girl's voice ' said, "Oh, I'm sorry! They must j have given me the wrong number." , The voice was Mona Allen's. ! That she bad been given the num ber of Eve's telephone by mistake was possible, of course, but a coin cidence almost beyond Eve's cre dulity. What could it mean? Had Mona been telephoning to Dick?
