Norma caught a glimpse of tell-tale red tracings about the other girl's "What Is It, honey?" Norms begged.

"Tell me What's wrong!" There was no answer. Christ back was toward Norma. The slim, well-built shoulders gave no evidence what WAS going on In the girl's mind. After a moment she replied In level tones, "Nothing. There's nothing at all wrong." Norma knew there was nothing to be gained 'by further questioning.

The older girl disappeared through the doorway and Norma crossed the room. She picked up her hat from the table -where she had tossed It, took off her coat and hung both away In the clothes closet. Suddenly Norma remembered events earlier In tho evening. She turned to the chair where she had dropped the stray puppy. The puppy was not there.

Almost Instantly she. spied him, wobbling with awkward steps toward pillow that had fallen from the davenport. There was an In vestlgatlve tilt to the pup's mose, zest for exploration even In the way ho bore his stub of a tall. Here was a dog out to see what manner of a place was this Into which fortune had hurled him. With a sweeping movement the girl caught up tho little animal.

rubbing his head gently with one forefinger. UST then Chrla entered! 'She had changed the black frock for an negligee. Chris halted on the threshold. Where In the world did THAT come from?" Norma looked up, smiling. "Isn't he adorable? he likes to chew buttons!" She drew the cuff of her blouse out of biting distance of those tiny white teeth.

"Adorable? Looks to me like a cross between a breakfast food and a ball of yarn. Honestly, Is It ft dog? Where, I repeat, did you find such an object?" Once more Normft told the story of the pUppy's rescue. This time she gave full details and due credit to the stranger who bad played such an Important part In the affair. "Honestly, I was frightened when he ran right Into the midst of those cars. It was miracle be wasn't hurt.

The mlnute'he started I knew I'd done a dreadful, reckless thing. It, was the puppy I was thinking of, but just 'suppose the man had been Chris Saunders leaned her head backward, shot a qulwlcal glance at her roommate "Then you didn't learn your handsome hero's name?" Chris "H'm!" she said quietly. "Was he good-looking?" "Not bad. To tell the truth he, rather attractive." fi handsome hero! And he wanted'to bring you home In a cab. Suppose he had any Idea how much a trip to this elegant neigh borhpod would set him back?" Chris put the question dryly.

Norma's blue eyes widened. "Why, of course not! He didn't know where I going, You don't suppose I told him that, do you?" The older girl laughed easily. "No, larnB. Of course not. Only I'm suspicious ot handsome heroes who dasb arOund rescuing damsels In distress.

Yes, even rescuing mangy pups! By the way, If you want a name for that prize package you're holding I'd call him 'Mud'." Chris dropped to tho davenport besides Norma and gave tho dog's floppy car an affectionate tug. "I'll admit the rascal's cunning." she went on, now that you've got it what do you expect to' do will) it?" "That's what I haven't decided yet. I'd love to keep him, but of course I know we can't." Again she salvaged a sleeve button from the rapacious animal. "Well, at least we might feed him," suggested Chris, rising. "Maybe the hound likes other things besides buttons." She disappeared behind the screen at the opposite side of the room.

There was a' small Ice box concealed from In a moment she ve- turne'd, bearing a saucer of milk. Chris spread a newspaper on tho floor, put down tho saucer, then the dbg. Immediately the small red tongue began lapping furiously. "Ybtir pet hasn't been over-eat- Ing recently." "Why, he must have been starved!" I should have thought about giving him something to eat," Norma said contritely. imiS Ignored this.

She sat down, one foot curled- comfortably beneath her. "Then you didn't learn your handsome hero's name?" she asked, returning to the earlier subject of conversation. "He said It was Travers. Mark Travers. vMayb.Q that was Just a stall, though, the same as saying he'd met me at the; Palais Royal.

You know," the girl admitted, "I sort ot liked him until he said that. Oh, how I do bate pick-ups!" Norma pounded the of tlie davenport with a vpngofulvflst. "They all do It, baby. Haven't you lived long enough to learn that yet?" Chris' tone was caustic again. She repeated tho name slowly.

"Maybe your boy friend Is old F. M. Travers' son. You know real estate magnate. Did the lad look like a millionaire's pampered son?" "What should I know about millionaire's sons? Don't be silly.

He was good-looking and what he did was brave but of course I'll never" see him again as long as I live. Oh proposed again tonight." "Proposed?" "Marriage. Holy bonds. What am I going to do about It, Chris? I've told him three times that I just want to go on being friends but It doesn't seem to make any impression. Bob's been well, different lately! I don't know what to do." "Why don't you marry hlmf?" "Because I don't want to! Really, Chrla, Bob doesn't seem to bo the same boy lately.

He's always getting sentimental and that starts an argument. Then the first thing Oaves Legs Limit you Ktiow. fighting. "He's with you, IUIHUW He's In with you and Bob Par- fell's ft young man lots ot girls, would give their eyeteeth to "Chris Sauhderu! Are you actu-i ally telling me 1 ought to marry, Bob?" Instantly the other girl objected. 1 "Nothing of the sort! It'll be far day When you little friend, Chris, starts telling anyone how to run their lives, even chauffeur my own.

I'm not telling you to marry Bob. I only say Bob's a grade-A applicant, Isn't It a rotten sort of life to be tied to an office day after day? Six days a week. Fifty weeks a year. Marrying a man like Bob Farrell would be a lot better than that, times 1 think I can't stand it another day. Her words broke.

There pitch ot hysteria in the choking tones. "Why, Chris, darling! Chris, you mustn't talk like this!" HRIS had turned away. She brushed one hand across hor eyes and It came away moist with tears, There was no now to hide them. Chris coughed. "Oh, I'll get over It," she said with an attempt at carelessness.

"Never mind about me." "But I do mind. A lot! After nil you've done for me do you think I'm going to have you feeling blue and miserable? Listen, let's plan to do something Interesting over the week-fend. Take a trip somewhere, maybe. We could be extravagant just for once. Where'll we go?" Chris got to her feet.

"We'll talk about It later." she said. Was there any relevancy In the fact that few minutes later she turned to say over her shoulder, "Brnd ordered a new car today. Twin six coupe. It's to have a special body." It was not unusual for Chris to refer to her employer so familiarly. "Brad" was what everyone at the Hart Advertising Asency called Bradley Hart when they were not addressing him directly.

As a mat ter of fact Hart's golfing co'mpan ions, acquaintances at his two clubs and the man and women with whom he was seen (at theaters and supper resorts called him "Brad." Chris Sounders, confidential secretary whose desk was just outside Hart's private office, who listed his appointments, checks for his bills, telephoned his orders to tbp Jcnew, Harl; better than any-, of these others did. Once nme the puppy claimed Norma's attention. She carried the animal downstairs to consult Mrs. Hawthorne, custodian of the building, about quartering him on the premises. There was no use trying to deceive Mrs.

Hawthorne. Luck was with Norma. The custodian's daughter answered tho knock. It developed that Mrs. Hawthorne was out of town for a few days.

Until her return Bessie, the daughter, said the dog might have the run of the back yard and sleep in the basement. Meanwhile, she cautioned, Norma had better be looking for some other shelter for the pup because Bessie was quite sure that "mama wouldn't like it." She repeated the warning twice and emphatically. It was this warning that at noon next day sent the girl hurrying into the big gray stone building of the Marlboro Press. She inquired for the classified advertising department. And with that the really amazing events of Norma Kent's life began.
