CHAPTER IX
CANNX WINONA BELL knew
L&!lrcl hfltfnr ihan Mm fftrl lrnnny
herself during theso days. She knew
bw a lujmuiiy lur uuvouuii, tun veil
of ronmnco that obscured the frankness
o her nature. Winona's interest in
Oranvillo Burton's attentions to Laurel
was not based nlone on curiosity; she
was eager for Laurel to bo happy. And
Laurel was hnppy.. sho had never been
SO haDny in her llfo nnr xn lipmiHfnl.
Nothing tired her and sho bubbled over
wun mo every minute of the day.
As Winona cnnllrlml tn Tml Unnnlnir.
Laurel was like a, magnet these days
nun. urew everyiuing toward it irre
sistibly. Winona was too sensible to
envy her volatile nature. She was con
tented enough' with the rather prosaic
engagement thnt existed between her
self and Ted : it was safe and sure if
not so exciting. Winona wished with
all her heart that Laurel would marry
Tom Benton who who had eyes for no
ono else. Benton was an old news
paper man. IJc loved Laurel and knyv
the easy-going ways of tho crowd; lie
could make her happy. Why, she could
keep right on with her work at the
paper and what good times they could
have I But Laurel, who liked Benton
immensely, hadn't any illusions nbout
him. Sho would havo laughed at tho
idea of thinking of him beriously.
Winona came homo from tho oflico
one cold drizzly afternoon in early May
and divested herself of her wet things
She built a little fire on the hearth
and proceeded to make herself some hot
tea. Laurel was out on an assignment,
but Winona expected her home any min
ute and consequently when tho bell
rang sharply she pressed the button
and went back to her scat before the
fire, leaving the door ajar. A vigorous
knock brought her to her feet and a
second later she was facing a man who
stood on the threshold. She had never
met Granville Burton, but she know
intuitively that this was he. and she
liked him In spite of' herself when he
smiled and asked for Miss Stone.
"I'm expecting her any minute,"
Wlnouu said holding open tho door.
"Come lu and I'll givq you some tea."
Laurel, Tunning up the stairs, and
arriving breathless at tbo apartment ten
minutes later, found them together in
front of tho fire. Winona thought bhe
had never seen Laurel so lovely as she
was at that minute all flushed nnd
breathless, with starry eyes nnd a won
derful smile. ,
Ittlrrnn who nnltn nt his ease. "You
see I came to tea," ho explained, "And
now I know all tho secrets of your life,
because I have tracked you to your
lair."
They drank tea from ns fragilo cups
as Granville Burton had in his own
establishment. They were Laurel's, bhe
had brought them with her from home.
laurel toasted braid in mi1 nrepiace sit
ting on the rug und leaning over close
to tho tiny blaze until her cheeks were
flaming with coloi. Burton talked eas
ily in his brilliant way and Winonn
for the most parMat back and listened.

but she did not understand him. She
tried to discover whai his feeling was
for Laurel, but she found that quite
impossible. One thing she was quite
certain of, however, and that was that
Burton had no sentiment about him.
He had sorao fixed idea in his mind, but
as for love, love as Laurel thought of
love, she did not believe him capable
of it, und k!ic did not know why either.
Burton liked this friend of Laurel's.
Sho una well-bred and intelligent, but
sho lacked something thnt Laurel had.
She was too much like himself, too logi
cal, too practical; sho somehow did not
spell woman to Burton ut all. Even
though ho was not in love with Laurel,
the man in him liked tho woman in her,
the softness that made her cheeks flush
even while sho flung back gay repartee;
the btarry eyes that might grow sensi
tively hurt but never hard, tho curved
lips that might tighten momentarily
ruled by the firm chin beneath, but able
to soften to womanliucss almost imme
diately. Laurel Stone, willful, inde
pendent, capable and fair-minded, was
nevertheless all woman.
"He's going to ask Laurel to marry
him," thought Winona, "And bo's either
going to mnko her divinely happy or
utterly miserable. I wish I knew
which."
But after Burton had lctr Winona
mndo no mention of nn thing to Laurel.
Sho Had found that nothing wns gained

l'crnnps it Durum nnd not .rnnuo piann
nnd had drifted, more tilings would have
been different. ut it was not ins
way. Once having made up his mind he
went about getting what he wanted, and
ho wanted Laurel to fill a certain rtlcho
In his life. A week from tho day he
had dropped In casually to tea with tho
two girls ho took Laurel tcUho theatre.
Laurel went to the thrktro two 'ot
thrco times a week with borne ono from
'the nancr. Benton or one of tho other
men. They alwuys had the best seats
as they went on passes, "hut of courbe
they did not dress. Afterward they
would Journey down to tho office where
the story would be rushed lu, nnd then
tuey would go to ono ot ine many res
taurants (bat crowd Park Row for
bomnthiug to eat.
This time Laurel went to the theatre
and sat in n box. Sho wore a white
evening gown on which she had squan
dered a lot of rioncy, and a fur-trimmed
wrap. This man who sat beside her
in conventional dress clothes made u
fairy tale of life and a magical city of
practical jew lork. '

A Gathering of
Charming New Spring Hats
Special at $5
Hats like these for $5 are
mighty few and far between,
as you'll agree when you see
them.
There are smart little toques of shining black toile
ciree very fashionable this season adorned with
plump little oranges or colored rings. Hats of dark
straw turn sharply up from the brow and widen out
at the sides most becomingly. Then there are broad,
floppy brimmed hats of coarse straw with light-color
facings. In fact, there are hats of all the types most
suitable for Spring, and there are veiy few hats alike.
A particular word should be said about the little
sailor shapes of glossy pineapple straw with just a hint
of a roll to their brims. A navy blue one with a bunch
of saucy cherries is a delight..
