CHAPTER XXVU i
C ATURDAY jvening Dick took I
Eve to dinner at ft popular res
taurant known & the Old Planta
tion The atmosphere was that of 1
the hnspltnhlo old south. 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.

"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?
