11hr weeks at a. stretch. there would he no word from Ellis and then, all in one day, four or five letters would arrive. She knew that he had been twice to Brest and once to Liverpool: that. he could not smoke his pipe at nights: that he was feeling fine; that the stars were very pretty on the’ wat- er at n ht; that the sailors life was the ife for Ellis; that he lov- ed and missed her. She lived for his letters. On the night $118 115d mail she would never go out.

She would read the letters once in the lobb . Then she would read them before undressing, and she would have one last reading in bed before she filed them away. Her room was large, clean and comfortable. yet the walls seemed to ss in on her. If there were no Ill-fail. she would not go up to the room until she felt drowsy. She came to realize in those days all that Ellis had meant to her; to realize as well how much money she had spent.

As she llad expected, Emily was given Miss Kendricks Job. Now she was making fifty-seven dollars rt week. a considerable sum for a twenty-six year old girl. But there was nothin to show for the raise. She had ittle for anything above the bare necessities.

To everyone's surprise, the Karin Ellis powders continued to sell. 1t began to look as if they would keep on selling for the duration of the war, until people regained their sanity. .

All that winter Emily worked with a zeal that at first amused and then began to alarm Mr. Roth. He worried about her health. She was not a natural executive. S!" had no confidence her suborinates. Unless she saw to it for herself, from in- ception to end, she refused to be- lieve that any task was given its full attention. She paced about the office as if every day were the last day of the month.

"Take it eas , Elmily." Mr. Roth urged her. " here's lots of time yet. If we don't do it today, we'll do it tomorrow. If we don't do it tomorrow, we'll do it the day after. Time, that's the only free thing there is, that‘! what."
