't1'lei-e was a breathless silence. At- ler which Elinor said with clamor- nte carelessneu. "Who was it Vicky'."'

'I think I must ask ynu that."

Elinor's head went up. "well. if vou knew, why didn't you tell Francis”

"I preferred to tell you first."

"W'hy'."'

"So that you might put. them back."

Elumr reached lnr her ura-p "Vicky. tin you know what you are Ire. saying? I won't stand every- thing."

”llm not asking you to stand any- thing I am only askinz what we can both do about -.t.''

It seemed to I-:!lnnr': excited imagination as if Vzcky. still and composed. was like. a marble sta- tue. arainst which she would he shat-te.rerI. "What can I do?" she asked sii'.'.en7y.

”You can tell me what you have dnne with them."

"Wolf. -V you must have it"-- I-”.'iuot's eyes did not moo?! Vicky!

"I took l'1ftTl this afternoon in Bai'.IfT1Oh3. I d:dn't dare take. any- thing 0! my own. The-rcls t'nat diplomatic d'nncr ncxt week and Francis uuilld hayc a fit if I didn't .1'r-ck iux'srl.'

"You vpau-ned ihmn?" ”Yes."

"Hare ynu the tiv:kct?" "Yes."

"Give it to mcl "Rut what good will ihai. do unen I haven”. the inoney?”

"How much?”

.linnr named a sum that seemed in Vicky astounding. 'lye paid all my debts and I bought these cryst- als '

"And I have none. left?"

"Not a pcnnr."

"Phen Imus! get it. from my bank as soon as DOSSIbiP.'

Elinor clutched Vicky": arm. ”You're amng to get them back?"

"Hi do my best."

Anne was having 3 wonderful time at Betty Lam'ale's party. She was young and she loved to dance and men flocked about her. And she was tasting the sweets oi popu- larity and success.

When the music stopped the coup- ins began to drift toward the din- ing room. Garry guided Anni: through the. crnwd. There was a hall to crcss before they reached the dining room-a great vaulted hall. hung with tapestries and por- traits of dead and gone Lanvales. Set. out in stone urns were orange trees. heavy with Innt. and it was against the backiirnund of green and glossy leaves and golden globes that Anne saw her mother.

As Annc came up (Elinor said hurrIed”.y, "I was looking !or you. Anne. Daiid and I are going our in the cltih with the. Dorsays rnr bridge. We're fed up. Garry will drive. you home." .

"But. Mother!"

"Vi'hat?"

"Oh. nnthinsi." Anne didn't want in go with Garry. but her mothrr wouldn't understand. There really tvasnit reason except that he'd try to make love in her. And how could she tell her mother that?”

Elinor open her bring and took out an envelope. "I want. you to give this to Vicky as 10011 as you get home, Even if she's asleep. I want her in have it innighi-." p

Just. then David name. up and Elinnr went with him. her hrad high. her finunces trailing. Annc. going into the. dning room. felt that the frod would choke her. The Imk in her mot.hei”s eyes and the whiiriieas of her face. had frighten- ed her. and what was in that letter in Vicky?

When at last she started home with Garry. the rain was coming down hearilv.

"Ger." Garry said. ”Thi.s is some- thing ilk” it. Annc. isn't it?"

”Like Wh.'it.?"

"Oh. don't begin by asking quest- ions." He laughed a little and lean- ed dc-irn to her. "rt"? gct you alone at last. my darling.”
