And she is so sick.

"I'll stick close by you." Sir Henry put his arm about her, and bent as though they were in close, important conversation. Putty laughed boisterously and called attention to the fact that" Sir Henry, the old sheik, had monopolized the prettiest girl in the crowdl Fortunately, Flavia was in another room when he swung across and sat down beside them. "Hello, sweetheart! Trying to get away from me?" He bent and whispered her ear. "I came here because I thought you would be at Flavia's party. She called me today and invited me."

He crossed and took her arm. "Feel like dancing She pulled away bit, Flavia?" nervously, and looked toward the door. "In a minute." Sir Henry could feel her trembling.

MESSNER NAMED ON STATE COMMITTEE TO PICK OPERA STAR Putty seemed amused. "You don't like me any better, angel, I see." Then he half sneered, and glared at Sir Henry.

"Maybe I'm too young for you." Janet was sarcastic. "No. I am too young for you." She could have bitten her tongue off after she said it. It was a reflection on Flavia, but she had not intended it that way. It had just slip- of her, threateningly.

At any cost, they must save Flavia the humiliation of such a thing. Putty moved closer to Janet and folded his arms. "Try to get rid of me, darling! I'm going to spend the last minutes of the old year by your side if someone kills me for it." Janet knew he was in earnest. She looked up and saw Fl'avia near the door and darted up from the divan. He would not dare to follow her into Flavia's boudoir.

Sir Henry turned to Putty and hissed with anger. "You rotter, leave that girl alone or get out of here!" Putty laughed and got up: "Like hell I will, old fellow. She is mine as much as yours." When Putty went into the hallw'ay Sir Henry was petrified.

ENTERTAINS BIDGE CLUB Miss Ella Tybout, Market street, entertained the members of the Thursday Bridge club at luncheon at one o'clock at the Woman's club. Thursday aTternoon. "I'm going to be the first man to kiss you next year. In about half a minute the- whistles are going to blow and I will kiss you." Janet put her hand over her mouth to stifle a scream.

She reached out and put a hand on his arm, pleadingly. "Putty--please, Putty, for Flavia's sake get out of here. Don't follow me. You know what happened before. She is so-sick--" He grabbed her ar min a vise-like hold that hurt her.

"I'm--just--waiting--for the whistles to blow--" Janet was blind with anger. She could have killed him--but there was no us in trying to pull 'away. Suddenly the whistles started to blow. Pandemonium let loose--and Putty grasped her about the waist and pulled her to him brutally. Things went black before Janet.

Then she felt herself released, and looked up to see Flavia standing in the door--the same look on her face that she had seen once before. Janet thought quickly and smiled, her heart breaking. "Well, you caught me that time, Flavia. I had to kis someone to celebrate the New Year and Putty happened to be the only one in sight." Putty stood spechless. Janet put her arm around his neck and forced another smile.

"He kisses nice, too." Suddenly Flavia let out a scream and rushed toward Janet. "You little minx, I'll kill you. You Sir Henry was in the door. "Here, here, Flavia!" He clinched his fist -and walked toward Putty, threateningly. "Get out of here, you cad." But Janet took his arm and sent him a warning look.

Flavia's happiness must be saved at any price. Again she tried to smile. "Oh, get away, Sir Henry. Flavia, don't be an old prude. It wasn't his fault.

-Ill go. I -just kissed him. My heavens, what's a kiss?" She turned and shrugged. Sir Henry held Flavia and Putty stood by, tongue tied, looking at Janet. Why had she put the blame on herself? He had never known anyone like that before? Suddenly a spark of manhood flamed in him, and he turned as though he were going to speak.

J'anet gave him a murderous look, and he closed his mouth. He realized that she had done it for Flavia's sake, and that she expected him to keep up the farce. For the first time in his life Putty Bigelow was ashamed of himself. Flavia, white and trembling, poured out a tirade on Janet that m'ade her shiver. She had never known anyone could be so angry.

Janet was ill and shaking. Thre or four of the guests were standing in the dopr as If para- lysed--and was so humiliated she could only stand fixed as Flavia screamed. "And I told you tonight that I would leave you my money to you. You double-crossing: little nobody!" Both Sir Henry and Putty looked at Janet. so surprised they could nob speak.

Was there anyone in the big: enough to sacrifice a half million dollars to save the feeling of another? But they both understood that was what Jfcnet had done. Janet got hold of herself, picked her wrap up, and flung it over her shoulders. She must keep up the indifference. With a 4ittle swagger' he left the room, her face white as the snow that covered the cold earth: Lotus Flower opened the door for her silently. Janet leaned against it a second, and staggered out into the night.

It was the biggest thing she had ever done. And she wondered if h'ad done right. She had given-Flap" via her last night of love. Soon would be gone. Janet held her wrap tightly about herself and shivered.

Some day, she, too, would be no longs. er beautiful and young. Oh, how life could be! Between her thoughts of and the drama of the evening, the faca of Ballard Riley passed constantly until, exhausted, Janet fell into troubled sleep. She was awakened by the ringing of the telephone. It was Sir his voice unnatural and strained.

Flavia had fallen to the floor unconscious as the door closed on Janet, and had never awakened. She h'ad died four hours later. Janet sank to the floor in a half faint. He had killed her. Putty Bige- lowe had killed her.

Oh, God, how cruel! She could not cry--or move. Sir Henry came in and found her that way an hour later. She Was too ill play in the show that night. (To Be Continued.) ATTEND REUNION Mr. and Mrs.
