Val did not prolong his leavetak-ing, and he did not bid good-by either to Felicity or Celia. It would be hard to say which of the two girls was the more miserable, but Celia was the more uncomfortable. Felicity was busy making everybody else uncomfortable, so she ought to have got some satisfaction out of it. For once Felicity and her aunt seemed to have something in common. "I'd be surprised if Val ever came here again," Miss Allison said tartly, when the five of them, to bed.

"It come in useful." Ceha's powers of intuition were peculiarly sensitive this evening. She got it without any trouble at all. Sandy was in love with Felicity and Martin Stanmore liked him. They were both looking at Felicity, so lovely, so radiant, and not in the least unhappy at this Woodlawn Sanitarium. He will be which included Sandy Maclaren, sat down to dinner.

"Poor boy, you practically threw him out of the house, Martin. When you heard that Felicity had asked Celia here, the very least you could have done would be to telephone for another seat." Celia could have sunk through the floor. So it was on her account that Val's evening had been cut short. It hadn't occurred to her before. "I'm sorry," she breathed.

"I had no intention of asking Presently people were beginning to go, and there was Felicity tugging at her father's arm, pleading with him in a sharp undertone to let Auntie May ask Val to stay to dinner. Felicity was behaving like an ill-mannered, spoiled child, which she probably was. "I'm sorry, but I've only got five tickets." Martin replied, "and I've asked Sandy." "Tickets for what?" Felicity demanded irritably. "For the Pallidrome the second house." one of them had become as acute as the other. She thought of Val, spilling his charm on all and sundry.

Was it likely that he would break Felicity Stanmore's heart No, it was more likely Celia Ames' heart that was earmarked for destruction. Her throat grew a lump and forced tears into her eyes. She felt small and hurt and helpless lying in this bed of luxury, as remote in construction as in intention from an Alanbrook divan. Love was so cruel when it refused to let you go. She left the reading light on for company's sake.

et?" Felicity was almost storming now. Her father did not answer her. Instead he crossed to where Val was standing talking to Miss Allison. He held out his hand to Val. "I'm awfully sorry we can't have you to dinner tonight," he said.

"But we're going off to a show directly afterward, and I've only got five tickets. Some other time, I hope." "Oh, that's quite all right," Val replied. "I must be off, now myself. Thank you so much. I've had a lovely time." Celia knew that look of Val's.

It was the cold, frozen look he wore when things were not going to his liking. Sometimes he put it on when there was boiled mutton for And al. Well, his expression didn't tell anybody anything very much. "All tne women." Martin Stanmore said, in a musing tone. "Not just green girls, like Felicity.

He threw a bland look around the table. It seemed amiable enough, but both Miss Allison and Felicity promptly shut up. Perhaps they knew from experience how far Martin Stanmore could be pushed.

Sandy Maclaren, it appeared, also was an engineer, and worked in Sir Martin's London office. He really did not look a great deal younger than Felicity's father, but apparently he was. There wasn't any gray in Sir Martin's hair, and then, from something that was said, Celia gathered that he had enlisted with the Sappers in the war when he was only 17.
