parchment there was a ringing in his ears but deft nitely a ringing he rolled over and groumd a usual he had taken one drink too many what he needed was some one to take care of him someone like that darkhaired girl with tht blue eyes whom he had seen and talked to at sally grants party lysl night what was her name now horaces eyes popped open in hbr yor what was her name good word couldnt he remembcr7 he must remember suppose he never saw her again suppose sally if she would again speak to him after the outrageous manner in which he had acted last night refused to di vulge the information or suppose sally didnt know horace sat up with a start the ringing had suddenly become very real he picked up the telephone beside his bed is this horace creighton asked a sweet feminine voice horace swallowed or tried to it was her or she he corrected himself it was her voice lord what luckl just a moment he wheezed he laid down the phone and scrambled out of bed in the bathroom of his bachelor apartment he consumed ave glasses of water gargled and rinsed his mouth then he splashed ice water onto his face and returned to the phone hello there he darling she said i am oet an honorable woman- exclaimed in a voice that was less rusty is this horace yes it is he cooed this is lita daniels i would have known your voice anywhere she laughed how sweet 1 called she added to ask whether it was one or two oclock that you asked me to meet you at the rttz today i must confess that i wasnt er shall we say quite myself last night her voice wai apolo getic he glanced at his watch twelve- thirty the time i suggested was two oclock he admitted but if youd rather come earlltr she proved to be even more beau tiful than he remembered he spot ted her the moment he entered the ritz cocktail lounge she greeted him warmly by jove he thought when they were snugly ensconced at a remote i ble she s gorgeous this is my lucky day aloud i must confess i went over the top a bit last night it isnt my accustomed habit rnl ly you must believe me she laughed merrily nor mine 1 m afraid we were both er shall we say carried away a neat way of expressing it lets celebrate by swearing off do you mean entirely of course not i merely mean i r being carried away horace felt weak and lighthead id he made a date for that night and that night he made a date for the next night and the next for the next and so on until there canu a time a fortnight later when in a daze of intoxication from love he put the question flatly lita ht said will you marry me but of course how old fashioned you are i love you for it the night that sally grant gave a party to announce their engage ment both were so eager to ceh brate that they er almost allowed themselves to be earned away lit came to him with tears in her eyes i cannot go through with it vtith out confessing darling i am not an honorable woman you musi know good heavens cried horaci his world collapsing what ha you done that morning the day i called you and asked about our date at tht ritz you had not asked me t meet you at the ritr a all 1 onl did it because 1 was afraid 1 i never see you again horace gathered himself togctr er honorable
