My mother was kind | to her, we were at the same hotel, and she was awfully kind to me. She had a brother with her, about my | age, and we saw a good deal of each | other. Later, when she was a widow, | she turned up in Paris with the two children. My mother and father were staying there for a while, before leaving me there to study. And later, she came here, and married Rose, who is a darn nice fellow, and now of course she regards me as a, member of her family! And I'm fond of her; too, although Lucia's a little fool, and I can't stand Arthur." "She went to school in Boston with my mother," Ellen said. "But I never saw her until a few years ago. Now that I've visited her I can see just the careless way she suddenly thought of Inviting me to her Thanksgiving house party. She thinks all young people ought to. like each other and dance and have a good time, ang I Suppose she felt sorry for me. But I never had such # wretched, uncom- fortable time in my life; perhaps it was my own fault!" She told him all about it, incon- sequentially, and he listened with genuine interest in his handsome eyes. Perhaps this artless revelation of a girl's heart was novel to a man who found the sex remarkable in all its phases, perhaps with beauty like len's opposite him, and & delicious breakfast under way at last, he would have found anything she said equally absorbing, "Little cads and snobs," he said, when she had finished. "And some of them will never be anything else. If Lucia marries well, and starts off with a limousine and three or four servants, and a hig wedding, she'li never know that she really is a rather ignorant and undeveloped girl, whose money has proved about the worst thing that could have come to her! Well--how do you feel now? Any- thing more?" He summoned the waiter; the check was paid. It seem- ed quite natural to Ellen that he should put a piece of silver into her hand: "For the ginl, when you get your coat." Warmed and contented, they went out to the car again, and again Ellen Was wridpped in snugly, and disguised by the big dark glasses, "Half-past two," said Gibbs, again at the wheel. "That means that we will run into the city just apout four o'clock." "It's going to snow," said Captain Latimer's granddaughter with cer- tainty. Her companion gave a quick, suspicious look at the sky. "¥ believe you're right, Miss Fati. ma Latimer. But we'll beat it to New York just the same. Let us away!" The car moved smoothly away over the snow. Ellen was beginning to love the steady, gliding motion. She secretly wished that there was a lon- ger journey ahead.
