She harmed no one by being happy, just for a while. She gave every spare penny of her salary to her mother--everything else that she enjoyed belong to Georgie and was not to be given away. The maid came to tell her that her bath was ready, and she went to lie in the deep marble pool and think over the events of yesterday. She did not regret having thrown away her chance of becoming the mistress of Blagh Castle, though she was sorry for poor Lord Edward. Nor did she regret her dreadful behaviour KRYNOPSIS Joan Denby of humble origin, Is in- troduced as a social equal of Miss Georgina La Fontaine, rather than as her secretary.

He's insufferable." She explained how Piers Hannen, though he had asked Miss la Fon- taine if he might take Joan for a drive, had dispensed with asking herself. "My dear, you should have been flattered," said Miss la Fontaine at the end of the recital. "Well, I wasn't. He makes me so nervous because I'm not sure of what he is thinking. I don't like him --I think he's hideous; he's finely built, perhaps--but beastly. Georgie, I can't stand him, and that's the end of it!"

"My dear Georgie, the only way to make a man like that understand what you think of him is to hit him! He's like a super-intelligent bull or something!" "Oh, so you do think he's gent!" "Yes, I suppose that he's even clever in a way," Joan had to admit. "Anyhow, Georgie," she added, jumping up to pour more coffee into the cream-and-gold cups, ."it went home, I think, when I slapped him with the fan. I don't think he'll bother about me any more. I'm sorry, of course, because he's 'a friend of yours, but I don't suppose he'll hold it against you!" "Well!" said Miss la Fontaine in despair. "There go the rest of my hopes! First Lord Edward is turned down--and then when a man like Piers Hannen takes an interest in you, you simply hit him in the face. Joan, you're intolerable!" "I'm sorry," said Joan contritely. "Am I so dreadful? I must be a trial to you!" "And yet I suppose you wouldn't be what you are if you didn't behave like this, my dear!" "Georgie, you're so sweet to me!" "No one could be anything else," said Miss la Fontaine. Satisfied that all was well and that Georgina was not really annoyed with her, Joan went back to her room. The maid hrought in some let- ters, and Joan, looking through them, found one for herself from her mother. It was badly written on a piece of soiled paper. Mrs. Denby hoped that Joan was having a lovely time; it had been very cold and wet; her brother Jimmy had been troubl- ed with his chest again. Ben had had to go to the hospital about his eyes, and they were hard put to it to find the money to pay for a pair of spectacles for him. But still they were not doing so bad--she did hope they would see Joan again soon. Joan looked round the beautifully furnished bedroom, and = thought of her home in Hooley Street. What right had she to be here, she thought. Ought she to allow Georgie to be 80 kind to her? inteili- MOTHERS! WRITE THE SOCIETY DE HY- GENIQUE, DEPT.

At least she had finished with him, even though she had had to resort to violence to do so! After she slipped into her wrap again, and with her fair curls all damp and tousled from the steam, she went back into her sunny yellow satin and birch-wood bedroom. As soon as she came into it she saw a big cardboard box lying on the table by the window. She drew her wrap more closely around her- self and went to look; the box was addressed to herself. Could it be Lord Edward who had sent her flowers? Poor Lord Edward! She hoped not. Miss la Fontaine's maid came and snipped the string for her, and Joan lifted the lid. A cloud of delicious perfume rose and enveloped her as she opened the box. She saw before her--daphne! A great heap, spray upon spray and whole branches of exquisite rose- flowering daphne. In a moment the scent of it filled the whole room. "Oh, how lovely, miss!" the maid exclaimed, involuntarily. But Joan. with«a shock of aston- ishment, was looking at the card which lay on top of the flowers. "Piers Hannen," it read, and a London address was crossed out. Be- low, in a firm hand, was written: "With regards--and regrets." Joan threw down the lid of the box and turned away. Her heart racea. and she felt a mixture of indignation and fear. It was absurd! Sending her flowers! Hadn't she made him under- stand? The truth was that he cared so little for her good opinion that it made no difference to him if he had or not. She would not look at the flowers but turned away to get dressed. All the time she dressed the smell of daphine grew stronger and stronger in the room. (To Be Continued.)
