She is my friend, and I gladly snatch time to discuss with her the problems of her little world-and mine. We speak of the loneliness cf widowhood, the comfort of child- ren. We shake our heads over the tyranny of men and the foolishness of women who succumb to their wiles. And, having rearranged the world as we would like it, we turn to the enthralling subject of clothes. With childlike curiosity she asks the original price of all I am wearing, how ion: I have worn it. where it was bought. I am left with the embarrassing feeling that she considers me but a poor buyer. Then, having exhausted my ward- robe. she turns to the more en- groming one of her own. _ “You like'um my shawl?"

Tho man loungcd with his arms across the back of a chair, gazing out, moodily into the street where sheets of driving rain marched under a. leaden ‘sky. _ An unlighted pipe was clamped between his teeth. Virgie had approved of this stranger the first time he chanced to pars the stand. It must have been nearly a week ago. She liked his broad shoulders, the restless eyes under their straight brows, the loan face bronzed by iong-out-of- doors exposure. His lower jaw was heavy. a trifle , acious. An at- tractive carelessness manned his general appearance; it was evidenc- ed oy the unruly thatch of crisp dark hair, and in the suit of rough gray tweeds. Yet there was an air of strength in all the man's leisure- ly movements. He gave an impress- ion that he mlzht act with discon- certing swiftnees if need be. L » Virginia Blake entered none of these detailed specifications in her mental catalogue. It was not her way of describing ‘a man who ap- pealed to her. She had decided pleasant}; and promptly that there was "something about him." And let it go at. that. , Not quite, for she had taken oc- casion to glide over to the desk and mmke a private investigation ‘the first time she saw this guest asking for his key and letters. ' "Oh, Eddie, darling . , ." virgio smiled persuasively at the room clerk on duty. "Who's the party who just took his key?" ‘ “The one in the gray suit?" I'd- dle Sawyer nodded in the direction of the bank o! elevators. "Uh-huh." “Fourteen sixty-one . . ." Saw- yer's forefinger traveled down the vertical card flle near his elbow. “The name is Cutter-L. H.--from Montreal." “Do you know what he does?" "I do not. Sounds like a butcher gr tailor. You'll know long before I o.’ "Thanks." “Not at all. Is he the day's par- ticular thrill?" “Bye. Eddie." Miss Blake's crimson lips curved in a smile cf anticipation today when she observed "1461" turn wearily from the rain-streaked win- dow and stroll directly towards the cigars. "Smoking tobacco," he suggested affably, resting his arms on the dis- play case. There was a leisurely quality in his voice, too. Very near- ly a drawl. "What brand, please . . . Mr. Cutter?" - "I wish I knew." A faint flicker o amusement showed in the dank eyes at the seleswomarfs use of the name. He tapped idly with the bowl of his briar against the glass. “I've a notion I'd like to try something different . . . today." Virgie Blank had her moments of intuition. Ordinarily, she would have attempted an adroit reply. Something from her stock of ready "come-backs" that the customer might translate easily as a willing- ness on ‘her part to continue the conversation to more interesting lengths. Instead, her coral-tipped fingers deftly investigated the set ' waves‘ of her raven hair. Her long lashes, their richness abetted by a screened the interested regard of her alert eyes. “We have everything . . almost." Virgie matched Mr. Gutters dmwl with unintentional perfection. “You seem to," was the quick ed- mision. Again that. little flicker in his eyes. He turned them hastily to the neat rows of merchandise that filled the wall cabinets at the rear of the booth. ‘Oh, well . . . I may as well stick with the old reliable." He pointed with the stem of his pipe. - "Ono of these, you mean?" Cool- ness tinged Miss Blake's voice. The customer's words roused a puzzled suspicion in her mind. Maybe ho was trying to get fresh. "No, ms/am. The next can. That's it." Cutters voice and eyes were de- void of all gulle. The buyer lingered to open the can. He crowded tobacco into his pipe bowl with practiced care. "Do you think it's ever going to stop raising?" Virgie venturedjor- givingiy. "You know, this sort of day fairly gives me the jitters." Her voice displayed a confidential note. She swayed nearer, in a. graceful pose. “Does it make you feel that way. too?" "It's not . . . conducive to ' . . frenzied . . . enthusiasm." The words were accented by swift puffs. Gutter blew a lingering thread of smoke from his pureed lips. Ho flip- ped away his burnt match and al- lowed his gmo to travel across the lobby. "One really should find something to do on s. day like this," he uid. He nodded in the direction of a small glue enclosed office not for away. "I should go over and an- noy your otenographer u bit. She doonft seem any too ." Something in the tone of hi: voice caused Virgie to look in the wrap coin carefully. ----___-_-|.-u-___— IQ. .01.

Very little more than her head and shoulders were visible through the glass panel. The glow from a shad- ed desk lamp shone warmly on her cinnamon-brown hair, a. ling bob of shining waves that covered the small bowed head. Apparently, she was reading. And deeply ab- sorbed-to judge by the half parted lips of her demure mouth. Large horn-rimmed spectacles gave an ul- most grotesque look to her oval face. “Pretty hair,“ cutter‘ observed re- flectively around the stem of his pipe.
