But after she had . closed the door, 'Arthur Mafidel quietly locked ft. Then, in the néxt" half hour, he bade good-bye forever to the 'only dream of married happiness he ever had indulged in, and in manly faghion determined that never J would he.allow it to interfere with his work, or his friendship for Ruth At the game time Ruth was think. ing of him. She had not been real- i iy sure that she wag not learning to care for Arthur Mandel. He had | been so considevate, so kind, so much the real friend as well ag the employer, that she had not been absolutely certain just -what her feelings were toward him. She re- spectedl his- business acumen; his SUCCESS. She knew _his character was beyond reproaeh, and she also knew---deny it as she would--that he cared for her. The depth, the strength, of his love she had not never would--plumb. But she knew he cared. Yet ag she thought any good friend who had been sO dear to her Then when her thoughts veéred to Brian, they were no longer calm, but she. thrilled with love for him---pride in his aec- complishments. "Dear Brian," she murmured as she bent to her work, "I do love you." . Ruth had found a location: that she thought ideal for a lawyer's of- fice. The rooms were light and airy, overlooking the bay, and were newly decorated. -Alnost she fel like engaging them. But common sense came to the rescue . and she {simply took the refusal of them; explaining that she was Mrs, Hack- ett.

But he algo had said as had her aunt: "They will koep a standing army over there for some time." But ' someway 'Ruth felt that Brian would be allowed to return to her, and so expressed herself, "A woman's intuition is often right. I hope sincerely that yours Is," the agent had answered smil- ingly. While Ruth told her plan to no one, that is no. one who could ua- derstand, she did not quite keep it entirely 'to herself. She would whisper what she hope to do for nis father to Brian, jr., as she held him in her amms, and crooned over him "You have a very brave daddie," she would whisper. "He's coming home soon to get acquainted with yor. You'll love hm just as moth- er does. We will he very, happy, you and daddie and I. I am going to fix up a lovely place for him, and he will make a lot of money-- you see if he doesn't." Soméway, when she referred . to Brians'. business ability, she always hesitated, "You see, haby mine, we have to be very good, you and me. Daddie is a big wan now, and wears two crosses, . That means le was very brave, very wonderful. We must be wonderful, too, in some way, to Keep wp swith him. Your wdaddie looks awfnlly handsama in his uni- form, baby. 1 wonder it you will ever be ag handsome as he is? You look lke him now, bdt there may be enough of me in you to spoil your logks when you grow older. I hope not, I'd love tg have you look just Itke your dad." All this and puch more did Ruth confide to her tiny boy. Somehow, since Ruth had decid- ed that Brian was so superior to anyone else--even to Mandel---she had loved him in a different way. The old feeling, not that he was in- ferior personally, : but that he possessed. business inferiority, had given way to the pride in his ac- comiplishiments "in the army, and forgotten she had his fpnmer fails ures. ; She seldom thought of Mollie in the days after the news of Brian's bravery 'caine to her. If she did, it was ' to think 'that she, Mol lie, couldn' be with him while he was fightippg; and that if the papers were right in their reports, the war would soon be over and he would rétorn to her. "I'd Hke to see Mollie King, or anyone else, get him away from me!' she' muttered to herself, To-morrow---+A False--Then a True Peace Proclamation, \ Told = Twilight . . .
