Dick looked a if he had been caught in a trap around which he had been playing and knew would snap if he were not careful, yet was surprised when it did. Willa looked apprehensive and ill-at-ease, as if she had been caught at sheltering a py of the enemy.

Ramon glancel at the two significantly, ami shrugged aside all responsibility if the explosion occurred at the wrong moment as men do in such crises. As for Mary, the sight of Dick With the ruddy firelight shimmering his handsome face and sleek hair, turned her blood to water; and ehe- leaned weakly against the door after having closed it. When she could command her oice and force her legs to move It seemed an hour before she could she walked toward them and said, Hello, every one." "Well, you are in early, aren't you?" Willa inquired. "We didn't expect you so soon, but we are glafl Their frequent meetings were usually about the round table of directors' meetings, at their social clubs or on the golf links. But Ronald K.

Foster and Dwight Blair of had been lifelong friends and were seen together, often. They talked over confidential matters and consulted with each other frequently, especially if one or the other were launching a new stock offering. Foster Meet Mary's Sister. Foster said to Mary when he arrived at the office the next morning, "Get Blair and see if he can give me a half hour right away. I have to soe him today, irme time, and' I'm busy the rest of the day, I see.

If hj enn make it until later, cancel whichever of my appointments interferes." It was rather mid, tlnusht Mary waiting for Blair's seeretnry to answer the telephone to hear her own sister's voice respond to the number she dialed. The arrangements were completed, and Foster left the office shortly afterward. A little later he entered the offices of Jameson-Blnir, and stood before the operator in the reception room who was none other than Bonnie Vaughn. She was expecting Mary's boss to come in, but she did not know that the rather handsome, jaunty, middle-astd man who had just stepped out of the elevator was Ronald K. Foster.

Her wide blue eyes brightened and rhe asjumtd her most seductive smile as he approached her desk. He was somebody, knew. "Mr. Foster to see Mr. Blair," he announced.

"My secretary just made an appointment." Bonnie emitted little gasp of surprise and, instead of turning immediately to ring Mr. Blair's she exclaimed, "Are you Mr. Foster? Trm! I'hm! Well, if that isn't you came. Pull up a chair. Kamon.

"She rides in heated palaces these days, eh, Mary?" "That's right," Dick agreed. "I hear you were out home last night, too, for a change." Mary Carrie On.

You see, I'm Mary Vaughn's and from whst she had said sbnut ymi, I had supposed you were a regular old fossil." He stared at her with anger for a moment, then realized that an amazingly pretty girl was smiling at him and, presently, ha smiled, too. He removed his hat and bowed slightly. "Is that so? You are the little sister, then, of whom Miss Vaughn has spoken. How do you do er Miss Vaughn. I didn't know that you worked here or anywhere have a nice sdnptd family ri-it here.

I just have to se Mom often. I believe that Tim snd Ted grow-half an inch a week when I am away. They always measure up to me I see them.

I'll wager you grew up faster than those boys will.

She Is an excellent secretary." So she thought he was an old fossil, did she? Perhaps that was why she wouldn't go to dinner with him. Well With a shy smile that waa one-half adoration and one-half Invitation. Bonnie turned aside to het du eyes that was not a reflection of the lirelight. "And that's what every one wants to do grow older just as fast as they can until they reach a place where they realize that they actually are getting old: then they want to slow up time," Ramon contributed to the discussion. "Which is about the time that time has acquired a good swift pace and can't slow down," Willa added.

They chatted for awhile of such PtT EIGHT CLOCK -lf ITWJfl ecz ls ties. Shs hesitated, thought for a moment, then asked aoologetically and with a quaint tilt of her golden head, "Was it Mr. Jameson you wished to see, Mr. Foster?" "Rlair," he corrected pleasantly, but if his secretary had made such a mistake he would have been quite astonished. "Oh, yes, of course, I'm sorry.

You quite distracted me Mr. Foster." He reflected, on his way to Blair's office, that not many establishments had surh charming hostesses at their switchboards. Too bad a pretty child like that had to work all day in an office. She belonged in a more attractive setting, and should be protected from the world. When he left the office, he stopped again and lifted his hat.

"I am glad to have met you, Miss 'Vaughn. Thank you for introducing yourself." momentous and Inconsequential things, and Pick left early. Willa remarked when he had gone, "Well, you walked right Into it. I thought you would be home late If you were working with your boss and then going to dinner." "I wasn't with Foster tonight. But I am not trying to run from Dick.

I don't mind In the least. I onlv wondered why he was here tonight." "He came to talk with us about ome bonds. We have another little nest egg to invest and we always give our business to Dick." "Oh, I beg your pardon for being Inquisitive. I'm sorry. I just knevr that he hadn't been around for awhile, you know." The Incident of seeing Dick so unexpectedly for a few minutes had disturbed Mary far more than the preceding experience of the evening with Martin.

She tried to efface Dick from her thoughts by recalling the words Martin had said the memory of his earnest face, the surprise that his words had given her. She till doubted his sincerity, somewhat.

Foster looked at her queerly when she declined his Invitation, but Insisted upon driving her home, anyway. "You should have told me you had a headache when I asked you to work late.

Don't try to come to work In the morning. I'm sorry If I Imposed upon you." "Not at all. It Isn't much, really, only I don't feel like being entertained tonight. I shall be fine after a night's rest.
