He made so much money that his daughter found it "difficult to spend all her Income In Paris, When she went to a cafe where there was a crowd, and s^e wished a. private party, Marian would pay the Waiters to invite the guests to leave. The girl attempted a similar practice in a cafe where Stephen- Hand and Billy McGuirewere drinking; Rand was a man JoJjis late thirties, an engineer by profession and a bachelor by preference. McGuire was a fresh-faced youth not long out of college. "A break at last! ' 'exclaimed.McGuire, scanning Marian. "Who is she?" "That's Marian Drake--on® of the reasons why France is ^ore about the Avar debts. I tell your Billy, if we kept this kind of tourist out of here they'd like us better In Earis," said Hand. "Come off the soapbox," McGuire retorted. 'She's my idea of what to take along to a desert Island." .."She's" my ilea of a spoi'ud brtt What she needs Is somebody tO take' l^old and bear down." •.McGuire gave him a quick glance. •"Ha! Aspirations?"' "Kix-^ambitions. Ever since she first started cluttering .up rotogravure sections I've had a le<jh to lay u sock on that. delicate chin of hers."

"Eet's -dance.'* . Hand > accepted the invitation. "You. dance -beautifully," he. said. : "So do you." There was a silence for a while, and then she spoke. "How about aVprlvftte" marathon-- you and I?",, 8 " , . "Huh?" . , ' Let's spend thre<y days dancing.^ "Let's," he replied. Three days later Rand sobered up to find Marian still,withwhlm. "I'm wondering if in tlie last «eventy-two hours we remembered to get ,married," he mused. "There's a ring on my finger. If it's brass I got it on a merry-go- 'round.". She held up the ring for his inspection. He smiled at it, then picked up the telephone on a table near the bed. "Rinsr Mr. Mc- Guire's room." After a pause, "Hello. Bill, this is Rand.
