"What was?"

“The appointment __ tha fiitlhl."

"But - why on earth -—?"

‘To leave us alone."

"my Don't be silly. Why would aha want w?"

"Plan?" echoed. cicily. Bile (Xiuldnt believe it.

“Yes. dear, Conspiflvi. if Y0" like the word better. She asked me m come to meet you at lunch- enn. he said there was umething she wanted me to do. For her, ahe put it fiatteringlyv, who'd always been so fond of me." -

Ciclly suddenly grew rigid in her chair.

"She said that aha wanted me to have a little talk with you. She said that she'd manaae to leave us alone -- she'd think of some ‘my _ and that I was to ask you -" here even Belle hesitated.

"I think you hadn't better." said Clcily quietly, "Where is she

' now?"

‘Riding round and round and round Ln the park, with her eyes on her wrist watch. She said that she'd give me thremqunrters of an hour. Ridiculous, isn't it? And yet it's tragic, too. I guess it's no fun to be Albert's mother. I used to uyﬁo remember that -" sen.- paused as before, this time not smiling.

"Well," said Qicily, deciding to ignore that reference to her husband, "I'd better be going. She'll soon some bouncing hack on us." The brightness of her tone was very faintly strained.

"Wait a minute,’ said Belle.

I came here today _ why I let myself in for it."

Clcily stood up and smiled down at her cousin. "Are you going to tell mo?" . _

“Certainly? said Belle. "Curiosity brought me. I wanted to see the orne-wclnan show. It was quite a spectacle. What's known as re- warding. I wouldn't have missed it. But I had another reason—" she waited for Cicily to ask what it was.

But. Cicily didnt.

So Belle had in gn on, a5 she did without assistance her voice suddenly stripped n! its accent nl mockery: "As a matter of fact. I've been meaning to speak to you. What Aunt Nlllriel told mo was not. a, surprise. I've suspected for some time _ before Jack came last Christmas -— that -- ircll. that things were breaking n-rong for you. I can't, help seeing than you're in a jam. l assume frcmi experience that Albert's hem out- raizeous, but -"

"Oh, please -!" said Cicily. with a little helpless gesture. She turned away unrertainly and walked over to the Wlnrlmi’. She couldn't face Belle with those words ln her ears. And yet she experienced a sudden desire to pour her heart out to heir.

"It was lucky for me that you took him off my hands," Belle hastened to assure her. "I was stupid not to realize it. I'd hcen flagging him for years. I-lc simply hated it, and it was rill cold mutton. But I think this is differ- ent. But, Cicily, you can't change him, We've both grown up, hut Albert is a case of arrested development. He will nlrarays re- main sublimcly the snmc. I'm sure he's in love with you ~- he respects and admires you 1 hut. of course he will altvnys stray. Can't you overlook it?" Belle calmly inquired.

Cicily felt ready to burst into tears.

"If you want to keep him, you'll have to put up with it."

After a ion: moment, "I rant." said Cicily in a smal checked voice. Then, with rising imiignm- i011. "HOW Can you ask me to? Don't you think it's important?"

"Of course it's important, But so are lots of other things —" Bella's voice driftcd off in n, retrospective pause. She -broke it hall’ humorously’. “it's queer, in spite of evcrythiiuz I scrm in have retained a lingering affection for Albert. I thought that I hadn't. But memories will rise __ I suppose it's because I'm so happ with Billy that I can he detached about it. And my advire is simple. Why don't you stop hilftlml each other?"

"Ah," cried Clclly, "hut you said that ho wouldn't."

"Yes. That's the catch in it. He wouldn't (or long. Thntmuls it lip to you. You'd have to —- not mind, Much. of course, I mean." ' "I couldn't. I can't,"

"well," sinned Belle on a note of finality an if she had no further suggestion to offer, "that's ton bad for Albert. He remains on my mind. You nee, men are such lftﬂll- T710? do get let in for things. Albert simply can't resist the temptation to be charming. Do you think he'd marry Gertrude?"

"Itdont know."

“And what would you do?‘

The clock on the mantel shelf chimed a silvery hour. Both girls remembered Aunt Muriel and the time. "Bee here, it's three o'clock. I've not to go," aald Cicily.

"1' think you better had. But perhaps f ought to tell you that Aunt Muriel said, by way of in- ducement -"

"I don't want to hear it," laid Olclly decisively.

They walked together into the front hall.
