4 OF INTEREST TO A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van 4e Water CHAPTER XLIV Copyright, 1916, Star Company. • Agnes Morley was ready for bed an hour after Hasbrook Bainbridge's departure, when onco more she heard the doorbell ring. Glancing at the clock, she saw that it was after ten-thirty. Surely, then, this could be no caller, she decided, as, putting on her wrapper and slippers, she obeyed the summons. It was not a caller, but a messen ger boy, who handed her an envelope bearing tho Imprint of a certain well known club and addressed to her. "I guess there ain't no answer," the boy opined, then ran downstairs. Agnes had already recognized the handwriting as that of Hasbrook Bainbridge. He had probably stop ped, at his club on the way home and had written her somo message which he had forgotten to utter during his call on her. The contents of the envelope proved that she was right. They also proved, to her way of thinking, that Hasbrook Bainbridge was the kindest man she knew. "Dear Miss Morley," the letter ran, 'T meant to tell you tins evening that you are not to corao down to the office to-morrow. Walt until the next day.. You have been under a strain to-day, and you should take a good rest. Moreover, you will be anxious about your aunt until you are sure that she likes her nurse and that they understand each other. So remember that I have arranged to havo your work done by Miss Durkee —I mean as well as she can do it. Needless to say, she lacks your ability, brains and good sense. "Forgive me for rousing you at this hour of the night when you should be asleep. But 1 do not believe that you have considered yourself and your own needs enough ta retire even yet. Please take care of yourself. "And, by the way, if you have any faith in my friendship, do not thank me for tho advance payment I made you to-night. It is yours—or will be In a short time, when you have done Ihe copying I referred to,this evening. By the way, we settled nothing abont terms. But that detail can come later. "Faithfully your'frlend, "H. B." A Hart! Position The girl had not known how tired she was until this messago came— this message which proved that some one was thinking of her welfare and of her health. For a minute she let herself enjoy the comfortable glow brought by this thought, then quickly upon it came the realization that, kind as this man seemed, he was, after all, her em ployer, to whom she was only a poor working girl, and on this reflection followed tho sickening doubt as to whether she had not been wrong in letting him help her as he had done and was expecting to do. Tat what other course could she pursue? Why need she, just now when light appeared on her pathway, be seized with this awful premonition of evil? She shook it off as if it were a tangible thing. She was tired, she a*- Investigation Proves that various disease germs have their breeding-place in the waste products of the body.

She would just try to re member that she need not hurry downtown to-morrow morning, but could rest after the strain of the past day. Aunt Lucy was comfortable; Miss Watson was with her and would call Agnes if anything went wrong. But nothing: would gix wrong, of course. She, Agnes, would try to think of something pleasant. And then as she closed her eyes she remembered the eager 100k —the soarcely suppressed gleam of happi ness in Phil's eye 3 this ruorping. And with this happy recollection she fell asleep. Miss Durkee had finished typing Mr. Bainbridge's replies to the various communications that had come to him in the morning's mail, and. having handed the letters to him for his sig nature, was busy putting a new rib bon in her typewriter when his harsh voice made her start and drop the reeNof ribbon she was unwinding. Miss Durkee Blamed "Miss Durkee!" he exclaimed, "you have made a ridiculous blunder here! I certainly never dictated such a sen tence as this to you. lam not at all interested in the digestive apparatus of my correspondent." He held a letter towards her. his blunt forefinger pointing to a single line. She read it. her cheeks burning with mortification and anger. " 'We approve of your digestion!' " the man sneered. "That's a nice mis take—to write 'digestion' instead of 'suggestion,' isn't it now?" "I—l—beg your pardon!" the sten ographer stammered. "1 never did such a thing before." ''l should hope not!" he retorted. "And see that you never do it again!" His manner angered her still furth er, and she tried to excuse herself. "Really, Mr. Bainbridge," she said testily, "as I never made such a mis take before I do not think it's quite 'fair of you to bo so much displeased With me now. All stenographers make mistakes sometimes." "Those of your class may." he snarl ed. "During your absence I have been so forunato as to have one who did not." The green eyes snapped dangerous ly. But before their owner could speak Philip Halo entered the room. "I was looking for you in my father's office, Mr. Bainbridge." Philip tried to speak indifferently. "But I saw that the place was empty. What's up?" "Illness in Miss Morley's family," Bainbridge explained briefly. Philip started to ask an impulsiv# question, then remembered himself in time to say instead—"My father's coming back to-morrow." "I know he is." Bainbridge rejoin ed. "So. aa ho will want M'ss Mor ley's services. I suppose I shall have to put up with what I can get." He glanced vindictively as Miss Dur kee! and Philip, finding the mental at mosphere too squall-'.tke for comfftrt, silently withdrew. (To Ba Continued.) fcABKISBXTRG GSBSS TTLEGRAPH OCTOBER 26. 1916.
