PAGE FOUR IOWA CITY PRESS-CITIZEN er NLA me. BEGI.N' HERB TODAI Two women are deeply in love with HARRY MORTON, who is wealthy, attractive, middle-aged and unmarried. One is AUD REf, his 19-year-old ward. The other is NOXA, a New lork girl. Morton, whose past Is an known to the gossips of Rochester, has there for 15 years, maintaining also an ex pensh apartment in New York, which he weekly, taking Audrey with him.

Nona comes to his apartment to ask forgiveness for a jealous attack she has made on him, and the two girts meet. Audrey declares her love for Morton, and asks him to marry her. He evades the question, and hires JOHN PARRISH to be his secretary, instructing him to be a companion to Audrey, She detects his purpose. Trying another expedient, he orders Parrish to take S5000 to Nona, and instruct her to buy a single piece of jewelry with it. FarrMi refuses to go.

XTOW GO ON WITH THE STOR5 (The names and In ttory are fictitious.) CHAPTER XI IT was a. real crisis in ths relations of Morton and his newly engaged secretary. Boylike, Parrish expressed his own determination by clenched fists, and flushed, tense face. Morton, the man of the world, sure of himself and of his moral mastery of the situation, sat looking at Parrish as he might have looked upon an interesting child. He waved his hand toward a chair down," he ordered.

Parrish slowly obeyed. "Now," ilorton continued, "will you tell me exactly why you won't do as I tell you?" The young man shitted In his seat. Finally, his eyes fixed upon the floor, his feet twisted together, and his hands In nervous motion upon the arms of the chair, he answered. "I've beard about your repute tlon," he blurted. Morton smiled.

"Just what have you heard?" he inquired. Parrish considered. "Well, I know what your reputation is. They say that you have lots of women on the string, and that you run around with them to places where you oughtn't to go, and--and--well, everybody says that you're a roue." "And," said Morton, gently, "Just what has that to do with your refusing to go on my errand?" Parrish looked up, evidently surprised. "Why," he said, staring at Morton, "you are sending me on an Immoral errand.

You're sending me with money to buy jewels for a woman." Morton leaned forward across his desk. "Does It occur to you," he asked, "that you are displacing yourself as an insufferable young prig?" Parrish reddened. "Do you know what a prig Morton persisted. Parrish did not answer. "A prig," Morton continued, "is a Pharisee--and a confounded nui sance to boot.

As you get older, you'll find that you have enough to do to look after your own morals, without sitting judgment on the morals of others. "Just look what your Idea is: Here's an employer who told you to take a check to s. given address, and deliver a message. You don't know whether the woman you are to meet Is a good woman or rot. You know nothing about her.

In your self righteousness, you decide that the errand Is a bad one. Therefore, you won't do it. Parrish!" He spoke ths name suddenly, and the young man started. "Sir?" he said. "Have you dirty spots in your mind?" Morton's tone was coldly in cisive, and his eyes seemed to be boring Into the man before Parrish was confused, don't think so," tie said.

"I'm quite sure not." Morton pointed his forefinger at him. ''Young man, people who are accustomed to think evil of others usually have a good deal of con ceaied evil In their own minds." Arising, he walked to the window and stood there a few moments, his hands thrust deep in his trousers pockets. After a silence, he turned and resumed: 'Are you going to do my errand?" sir, I Istence or to that or her guardian Pleased, she assented, and togethei they set off. As they passed a telegraph office Morton asked the girl to wait a mo ment. Ke left her standing on the step, as he went inside, and hastalj wrote a telegram.

It was to Nona. "Can you come to Rochester tomorrow, to stay atout It read.

Turning to the chauffeur, he told him to take their baggage to the house, and asked Parrish If he, too, wanted to walk. "I have your brief-case," Parrish said, "and there are some things I want to look at in it. I'd better ride." His eyes were on Audrey while he spoke, as If Waiting for her to ask him 10 come. She said nothing, how i ever, and so he rode away in the en dosed car, as the man and girl trudged off in the down pour Neither wore a raincoat, and they had no umbrella. "I suppose I'll be getting old, when I no longer like the drive of rain in my face," he said.

She hugged his arm with hers. "You'll never be old," she said "There's something young In you that always is going to be there." They were dripping wet when they got home, and retired to their own apartments for a hasty bath, and a change of clothes. When they reappeared, ths rain had ceased, and the sun had, begun to shine. "Want to come down to the office with me?" he asked. It was a rare request from him For most of her life, Morton's office had been as strange to Audrey as If it bore no relation to her own ex lifted the folded documents, shuffling them in her hands, and looked at him inquiringly.

"You haven't known it," he said "but since your eighteenth birthday you have really been independent of me." "But I don't want to be independent of you," she said promptly. He laughed. "But this Is a practl cal matter--a financial affair. Those papers that you have In your hand mean this, briefly--you are a rich woman. I have turned over to you.

In cash, and bonds, one-half of everything that I own--or used to own." He looked at her inquiringly. She smiled, laid down the papers, came around the edge of ths desk, and like bujing his ties-- there's apt to a I be a clash in The girl sat on the desk, before him, and stroked his hair. "Why did kissed him warmly. "Thank you, daddy," she said, "but I don't want it. I don't want to have you give me all that.

"Under a different color scheme, he may be inspired to broach the question he has been wanting to ask for a long time," Mr. Downie said. Likewise the mortgage holder who calls for the purpose of foreclosing may change his mind and postpone the "dreadful day" if he is properly impressed by the color scheme of the mortgagee's living room.

Mr. Downie prophesizes the day when even the most bnliant color? and the most exquisite pastels will be used iu building construction; when persons of various trades will be distinguishable by the color of their garb; and when color symphonies will be events comparing in importance with orchestral symphonies of today. "Color is bound to play a more important role in our American inquiry into the higher commission rate of the Omaha exchange.

"But, my child, there are certain practical things in life. There may come a time when you dislike me ut terly."

"Nothing makes me happy except to be with you," she said softly. She held out her arms to him, but smiling, he turned In his chair, and arose. "The office isn't a good place to make love," he laughed. "Do you mind'waiting here while I go Into the cashier's office a little while?" He provided her with a book, and left her alone.

Her eyes wandered curiously over the office. It had been two or three years since she had entered it before. The table on which she- was sitting was of walnut, polished to a satin finish. So was Morton's desk, and so were the chairs that sat about the walls. "Expensive," she said to herself.

A large painting filled the space between the two windows. In the semi-gloom, it was startllngly life like--the work of an able artist. As Audrey was looking at this, a clerk entered, and laid an opened telegram on Morton's desk. As he went out, Audrey leaned forward with feminine curiosity, and read the message.
