A cloud of flying fish rose off the water, piloting the boat landward. Beyond the besirred deck, its chatter and obserations mingling, nnd far and beyond the approaching city which lestled in the curving arm of the har bor, the purple mountain faded into (loud. A city of romance and of tropical arenes, of hand-made cobbled streets and ox-blcdges with bells jingling right tnerril). Funchal dreams in the sun He a many tinted lizard.

"Aaron, like my legs would Svobblo right off, that's how I feel." "Now, now, Bertha I nin't so steady myself if you hang on me liko that." "No, but them three rough days when we first started, you could hang on me, I tell you. When my legs wasn't even so steady as they are now."

"Just wait if you think this is going some, Miss Esther. Wnit until we go up the mountainsido on the funicular and come down on sledges." "Whcw, givo mo my fan out of your pocket, Aaron.

SYN0PSI8 Laurel Stone, a netctpapgr woman on tho Ohroniole, if sent to interview Oranvilte Vurton, a big finanoial mart. Mc and Winono Bell, who is on the same paper, have an apartment to gether in downtown New York. CHAPTER III LAUREL STONE had come from a small town in Ohio. There she had worked on one of the three newspapers, tho News, and from her earliest days in newspaper work her one ambition had been to come to New York. The Stones lived in a large shabby house off Main street, Mr. Stone dealt in wood and coal nnd there had always been plenty of monev. Laurel had cone to n western college for four years and as her father said when she returned home, she had been born with wings nnd college life had enabled her to fly. He adored Laurel nnd trusted her. When she announced her intention of coming (o New York he made no comment, but when she was ready to start gave her a check and his blessing. Mrs. Stone felt aggrieved. In a small way, Mrs. Stone was very ambitious. Thcro were only three or four girls in Wcstbury who hnd gone to college nnd Mrs. Stone had made plans for her daughter s re turn, a scries of affairs given for her, a small social triumph nnd perhaps a marrlago to George Stoddard, the son of Wcstbury's banker, or Chris.Rollins. who owned the Wcstbury electric light plant. Laurel had no intention of em barking upon a social career and when 'she went on the News it almost broke Mrs. Stone's heart. It seemed that whenever nnvthlng wn3 planned for Laurel tho girl was always out on an assignment. "When jou could have any one in town, Laurel," her mqther would wail, "T Hnn't. sen hnw Mill enn CO about in those old clothes- For my sake you mieht do th ncs n little bit my way, "But mother, what's the use? I nntiMn'f mnrrv nnn nf fhpsn small-tOWn men nnd settle down iu Wcstbury for the rest of mv life. I wnilt to live, 1 want to go to New York." That was before she had anv clear idea of what she wanted to do in New York and her announcement hnd almost killed her mother. For a jear j-nurei had worked on the News and had been fnirly lrappy, then she had taken her father into her confidence nnd the dream of her life was finally in her grasp. "She enme to New York with a letter of introduction to the Chronicle. They had given her a job and she had made good. Her second week in tho city she nnd Winona Bell hnd drifted together. Winona was city born and bred. A canny streak of w isdorrr dwelt beneath her surface softness nnd she wns far more practical than Laurel ic that she know better how to look out for her own interests. Laurel had all kinds of ideals and illusions. Winona had none. , Lau rel wove dreams about love. W monn scoffed at the idea of a man being true to a woman. She would shock Laurel with her remarks about marriage, bulh her as she miglit nave miuieu a smuu Vi 11 girl nnd then turn around and borrow money from her in the most frank and nrtlPRS wav. Bcsido Winona's citv-brcd wisdom, Laurel was like a sturdy flower. Be neath her boyishly plain suits her body was litho ana slender and perfect, liven her hair Rhowcd tho vitality of the girl. It had an electric quality that made it snnp and crackle when she drew the brush through it each night. Tho flash of her whlto teeth against the bright scarlet of her mouth was fascinating to watch, nnd her eyes, those great blue eyes of the color of lapis lazuli, were radiant with health. Winona was delicately pretty with light brown hair and hazel ejes. Be side Laurel she sometimes looked anemic, but she was quite strong nnd of that wiry adaptability and endurance that a city woman seems nlways to hac in abundance- She wns engaged iu n desultory fashion to Ned Bcnning, one of the men on tho paper, and to Laurel it wns the most Interestine thine in the world to watch tho reactions of these two. Winona bullied Ned natronizlnclv nnd their relationship was delightful, but not at all what Laurel had imagined nn enagagement would be. There was no sentiment, no quick meet ing of eves nnd sudden touching of hnnds. Ned enmo up to dinner some times and would help just like another girl in the tiny kitchenette. They would sit for long moments over their cof fee taming about life, arguing nbout nil kinds of things, with Winona nnd ?cd nlways leagued together against Laurel. , ''You expect too much of people," Winona would say. "The less you ex pect from people the less you're dis appointed." 'Rut I want to expect n great deal of people," Laurel would return. "Even if I nm disappointed. The more jou expect of people the more they give you." "That's idealistic, not practical," ieci wouiu put ic here. "But she's a hopeless idealist," Win onn would interrupt. "Look at Ned und me, Laurel; we're practical; we like each other and we're going to marrj ench other6omc day. but we're sensible nbout it." And so it would iro on. It was nil delightfully joung und jet there was a queer undercurrent of truth in the things that were touched -upon. Winona nrd Laurel saw life differently according to their natures, and while Ned .Banning was very well suited to a girl of Winona's tjpe. to Laurel he would have been impossible.
