For four years she has treasured clippings of lovely furnishings, pers! herself that she will one day have such a home. Every- thing in_her dream is different from the life she actually leads. Her father runs a filling station; her mother works hard, scrimping against the "rainy day" that haunts the families of working- men. Janet herself is a stemog- rapher. She has never been in- terested in the boys around her because of her dream of a differ- ent home from the one any of them could give her. There was no Semptation to fall in Jove until James Warren came into her life. James was sent by the Miracle y to assist Janet's g station. He ell in love with to 'marry her. Jimmy really is the son of the president of the Miracle Oil Com- pany and is learning his father's vast business, which he will some day manage. Jimmy's father in- sists that Jimmy keep his real identity secret umtil he is sure Janet loves him. Jimmy takes Janet to meet his sister, Mildred Warren, a painter, with a luxur- ious studio, who likes Janet and begins a portrait of her. Janet has a friend, Adelaide Morris, with whom she has grown up. Adelaide is having an affair with Butch Krause, a blaff, coarsely handsome young fellow, with ap- parently unlimited spending mon- ey. One eviningy when Janet and Jimmy are having dinner with Adela'ds and Butch, a detective whom Butch calls Flatfoot, ac- costs Butch and makes some threatening remarks. Butch makes no explanation, but Janet is fore- ed to believe that Butch is in- volved in some manner with the police, Jimmy, however, likes Butch and calls him a "square shooter." In the days following the party Janet hardens her heart against Jimmy. "Caveman Stuff" He telephoned the Sunday follow- ing the theatre party and asked Ja- net to go riding with him, explain- ing that a customer of the filling sta- tion garage had offered to lend him a carefor the afternoon, Janet said she was tired and had a headache and would rather stay home. At sup- per time a big box of violets with a blank card bearing a scribbled mes- sage, "Violets are a sure cure for Sunday afternoon headaches, Jim- my," came for her. Janet loved the Sowers, but she tore the card into te. Monday morning she sent him a note by her father. telling him she had decided not to go to the theatre with him that week; she had a lot to do at the office and was fighting off a threatened attack of grippe. Jimmy's reply took the form of a big basket of rare fruits and jellies. On one of the largest red apples he had carved a face like a jack o'lan- tern, with drooping mouth and an expression of droll disappointment. On top he had stuck another card, reading, "When this you see, remem- ber me. I feel just like this. Jimmy." Janet was excessively annoyed, but could hardly send the fruit back to him. The next night he telephoned again and Janet refused to go down to answer the phone. She heard her mother telling him. that Janet was in bed and didn't feel like getting up. When Janet came home from the office on Wednesday there was a large package for her. At first she refused to open it, but when her mo- ther insisted, cut the string and out tumbled a dozen new books in bright Jackets. The card with them read, "A grand way to spend the evenings you can't spend with me, Jimmy." Janet smiled in spite of herself, and when she had arranged the books on her dresser she admitted they looked jolly and gay and interesting. They brightened um the plain little room and made it look more livable. "I ought to thank him," she said to herself, "and he simply must not spend all his money this way---why, those books alone must have cost him a whole week's salary." Janet knew too well what living cost to believe that Jimmy could afford to send her such gifts. So after many attempts to say just the right thing she sent him a prim little note. "Dear Jim- ungrateful for the flowers and fruit and books, , I liked them all very much, But I.am very busy right 'mow and I know-that you must have other things to dg, too. I have every- 'thing I need for my evenings at home for some time, thanks to your thoughtfulness. Sincerely yours, Janet Lane." "I Like Him Too Well" She read the note over ' several times, ' It sounded stiff and cold, but she did want him to stop sending her presents, particularly the kind of presents she couldn't very well re fuse. Adelaide thought Jimmy was crazy. "He's probably saved a couple of hundred dollars, and if he wants to blow it in on you, don't be a fool. Let himido it. Butch says he thinks there's something funny about Jim- my, anyway. Oh, Butch likes him; At isn't that; but he says you don't i Jout ge a fellow who works in a nowing good whiskey the ni Jimmy did. Let's all go out to- gether again some time soon, will, you, Janet? Butch wants to throw ' big party for us at "some night club. } Janet shook her head. "I'm not going out 'again with Jimmy," she sald decidedly. "Why mnt?!" Adelaide insisted, "What's the matter with him? He! Isn't blind or erippled and he doesn't By Barbara Webb Copyright by Public Ledger What is the matter with him, Janet?" "The matter isn't with him," Janet sald slowly; "the troubié is with me--I like him--too--well--"" Janet had spoken so gravely that the teasing look died on Adelaide's face, "So that's it," she said softly. "Well, I won't butt in; you know your own affairs best, Janet--but I think Jimmy Warren's a swell guy and so does Butch, even if he does work in your father's filling station." Thursday passed without any word from Jimmy, and Janet felt relieved. Apparently her note had done its work well. He wouldn't bother her any more and she 'could go back to her long-neglected dream book in peace. Friday she worked hard all day and at noon bought a magazine with pictures of houses and plans in it. She thought she would devote the evening to reading it and per- haps find something to add to her own scrapbook. But when she came out of the office a man strode toward her and almost before she recognized him took her arm and said firmly, "You're going out to dinner with me, young lady; and then we're going to spend the evening with Mildred." Janet heard Adelaide giggle, then say, "Hello, Jimmy, that's good cave- man stuff. I hope you get away. with it" Janet wanted to jerk her arm free, wanted to stamp her foot angrily, wanted to run away, but there were too many people she knew around. She couldn't make. a scene. She forced herself to smile up at Jimmy and say coolly, "How nice that will be." Jimmy pretended to shiver. "All right, ice maiden, we'll thaw you out with some good hot soup and melt You down to something human again, I've got a car here, Adelaide, want us to drive you home first? I'll have to let you out at the corner, for if I got Janet within shrieking distance of home she'd jump out and . run in- side and lock the daor on me. She's mad at me, Adelaide, and I want to find out why." Adelaide declined. She knew too well the technique of a young man in love to want to interfere. She bade them instead an airy good night, im- pudently wished Jimmy luck, and watched while Jimmy put Janet into away with her, The Old Mill Jimmy was explaining the presence of the car to Janet. "Fellow that comes in our station for gas lent it to me. He's going eut of town for a few days and told md I could use it it I wanted to. Like it?" "It's very nice," Janet said non- committally. She did not know, of course, that this was Jimmy's own car, delivered to him early in the afternoon by Mildred, who had been using it while Jimmy was working. The motion of the car seemed to dis pel anger and she relaxed against the cushions and pulled off her hat, letting the warm. lyeeze blow her hair about. "Good," Jimmy said, "that'll blow these foolish cobwebs out of your brain, young lady, We're going out in the country, you and J. Out at Roslyn there's an old mill that's been turned into a tearoom -- ever been there?" Janet shook her head. "Well, you'll like it. It's quiet and pretty inside and they have some wonderful old furniture and you ean hear the water tinkle from the old mill wheel while you eat. They've got a colored cook who can fry chicken--and bow! Does it sound interesting?" "Very." Janet couldn't talk yet. Jimmy, somewhat crushed by her monosyllable, gave all his attention to his driving until they had reached the more open spaces of Nogthern Boulevard and were speeding out Long Island. Janet had been turn- ing over something in her mind. She bad noticed Jimmy's suit. She did- n't know much about men's clothes, but this suit for all its casual air looked expensive, so did his shoes, and what kind of a customer loaned a young filling station hand his car, and where did Ji get the money to take her out to dinner and send Ler presents? "I'd like to ask you something," she said presently. "Ask away," said Jimmy cheer- fully. "I hope you won't mind--I don't want to seem to pry--or, or anything like that, but I can't help wondering where you get money enough to do all these things you want me to do. You see, I know what father makes, and I guess you don't earn as much yet as he does. I--I don't like you to do things you really can't afford, just because-just because Jou think you like me." Jimmy's face was very red and Janet feared she had really offended him. He kept his dyes straight on the road when he answered.
