10 WOMEN'S A GIRL AND A MAN A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van ie Water CHAPTER XLVII. , (Copyright, 1916, Star Company). I Agnes drew a long breath of relief ; i*s she went home at the end of an hour and a half in Sir. Bainbridge s apartment.. Nobody could have been kinder or more considerate than tins man had been. When at halt-past - nine she had told him that she must > not stay any later this evening, he . had made no demur. "I always have something cold to drink In "the Icebox," lie had said. "Won't you have a glass ot" demon ade —or something of that sort?' "Oh, no; thank you!" she had re-. plied. "I am not thirsty." • When can you come again . he ] asked. "You know 1 want to get; ahead with this work as rapidly as, possible." Four evenings during that first | week found her in HasbrooU Bain bridge's library. The copying did not j progress fast, for it was tedious and difficult to decipher some ot" the j quaint characters. Often the man : and girl would puzzle for some min- j utes over a single sentence. The discussions thus aroused made i the pair feel better acquainted than | they had been before. Yet when they met at the office. Bainbiidge's man- j ner was what it had always been in public—gravely polite. It was when she had been doing • evening work for over two weeks that Agnes, returning home about 10 o'clock one night, was met at the j door of her apartment by Miss Wat son. "Oh, I am so glad you have come!" I the nurse exclaimed. "Your aunt is worse, und I want you to telephone for the doctor quickly, please." j After Agnes had run out to the f drugstore and summoned Dr. Martin, j she asked Miss Watson a tremulous! question. "Did you have to wait long for me ; —I mean, could I have done anything j for auntie had I come earlier?" "Nothing." the nurse assured her. I "This attack came on just before you ; got in." SHE HAS A BITE TO EAT Anxious as she was, Agnes felt i comforted at this bit of Information. I This evening, for the first time, she had lingered for a few minutes after she had stopped her copying to eat' a sandwich and drink a glass of ginger ale in Mr. Bainbridge's lux uriously-appointed diningroom. Her companion had taken a high ball. The cool evenings of early Septem- ; ber were here now; she had walked rapidly to her destination after an unusually light dinner, and the ex ercise had made her hungry. She had enjoyed the brief period of re laxation and the frugal repast, but the memory of it troubled her con science. lest her aunt had suffered longer than was necessary because of the niece's self-indulgence. Hence her sensation of relief at the nurse's reply. But graver fears were awakened when Dr. Martin arrived. He had hoped that all was going well with the patient, but now a consultation could be deferred no longer, he de clared. A specialist was communicat- , ed with and made an appointment to j meet Dr. Martin the following fore- j noon. 1 TURK | Mildly and Healthfully ■ Mary T.

Thus it happened that early the I next morning Mr. Hale received a j telephone message from his stenog rapher. asking permission to stay away until noon explaining that i her aunt was worse and that a con ' sultation was to be held at once, j "1 do not see how 1 can spare ! you," Mr. Hale objected. "I would : suggest that you come down as usual, and return at the noon-hour to as certain how your relative it." "Very well," Agnes answered. But her heart was hot within her las she hurried downtown. She was j late, for she had taken for granted her employer's consent to her ab sence. He was out when she en j tered the office, and Mr. Bainbridge i was at Mr. Hale's desk, i "Hale will be back in a little | while," Bainbridge explained. "He 1 was called out unexpectedly, so I ; offered to go over some of his mail ! and answer such letters as I can j during his absence. This happens to j be my easy day." "I see." she said, closing the door j and seating herself at her machine. | He dictated several letters, then | rising, crossed the room and stood by I her chair. lIE CALLS 11 Ell "AGNES." "Agnes!" he said. He had never before called her by her first name | and she looked up in surprise. The i expression in his eyes that she had seen once before the expression ; that made her feel as If she were l>e ! ing hypnotized held her now. "What?" she breathed. "Hale has told me of your new ! trouble," the man went on. "So there is to be a consultation with a spe cialist and more money to be paid I out! Poor, little girl!" "Don't!" she exclaimed. putting ' her hand to her throat as if to check ! the contraction that came at the j sound of his compassionate words, i "Don't pity me! I can't stand it ! just now." "I know! I know!" he soothed, j "And Hale was a brute to drag you : down here when you were so anxious. I And I can do so little! Yet. dear— II can help you by my friendship, my I affection. Det me be something more than your employer. liet me tell you how much I care for you!" He bent over her. and his hot breath was against her face, while his heavy hand rested on her shoulder. At the personal contact she sprang from him. j "No—no!" she exclaimed. "You . are my employer, and that only. Oh. I don't know what you are talking about. Please" The door opened and Bainbride, turning, faced Mr. Hale as he en tered. The change in his voice made the girl catch her breath. "Ah, Hale." said the junior mem ber of the firm. "I am glad you've i come. Poor Miss Morley is quite up i set about her aunt. I was just telling I her that she is foolish to be so anx ious, and that the best thing for her to do is to forget her worry in her | work. Now that you are here, I will leave her with you." And before Agnes could realize I what had happened. Bainbridge had i gone out of the office, and she was | alone with her employer. 1 (To Be Continued.)

(Continued From Yesterday?) j "I am delighted to meet your lord-' ship," said he to Harrowby. "Knew j your father, the earl, very well at one I time. Had business dealings with him —often. A man after my own heart. Always ready to take a risk. I trust you left him well?" "Quite, thank you," I.ord Harrowby Bnswered. "Although he will insist on playing polo. At his age, eighty two, it is a dangerous sport." Mr. Jephson smiled. "Still taking chances," he said. "A plendid old gentleman. I understand that you, Lord Ilarrowby, have a prop osition to malTe to me as an underwrit tr." They sat down. Alas, if Mr. Burke, who compiled the well known "Peer age." could have seen Lord Harrowby then what distress would have been his! For a most unlordly flush again mantled that British cheek. A ' tnan wa* supremely rattled. "I will try to explain," said his lordship, gulping a plebeian gulp. "My ! affairs have been for some time in rather a chaotic state. Idleness—the j life of the town—you gentlemen will j understand. Naturally it has been sug gested to me that I exchange my name j and title for the millions of gome Amer- 1 lean heiress. I have always violently j objected to any such plan. I—l couldn't I quite bring myself to do any such low ! trick as that. And then—a few mouths j ago on the continent—l met a girl"— He paused. "I'm not a clever chap, really," he ; went on. "I'm afraid I cannot describe her to you. Spirited—charming"— j He looked toward the youngest of the ! trio. "You at least understand," he finished. Mr. Minot leaned back in his chair : and smiled a most engaging smile. "Perfectly," ho said. "Thank you," went on Lord Harrow - ! by in all seriousness. "It was only in-' cidental. quite irrelevant, that this; young woman happened to be very l wealthy. I fell desperately in love. I am still in that—er—pleasing state. The young lady's name, gentlemen, is ; Cynthia Meyrick. She is the daughter I of Spencer Meyrick, whose fortune has,! I believe, been accumulated in oil." j Mr. Thacker's eyebrows rose respect fully. "A week from next Tuesday," said Lord Harrowby solemnly, "at San i Marco, on the east coast of Florida,; this young woman and I are to be married." "And what." asked Owen Jephson, "is your proposition''" Lord Harrowby shifted nervously 1& his chair. "I say we are to be married," he con-' tiuued. "But are we? That is the nightmare that haunts me. A slip.! My—er—creditors coming down on me. j And, far more important, the dreadful. agony of losing t h e dearest woman in the world." "What could happen?" Mr. Jephson wanted to know. "Did I say the young woman was vi vacious?" inquired Lord Harrowby. | "She Is—a thousand girls in one. Some j untoward happening and she might change her mind in a flash." Silence within the room; outside the j roar of New York and the clatter of j the inevitable riveting machine mak ing its points relentlessly. "That," said Lord Harrowby slowly, "is what I wish you to insure ms j against, Mr. Jephson." "You mean"— "I mean the awful possibility of Missi Cynthia Meyrick's changing her mind." Again silence, save for the riveting i machine outside, and three men look- j ing unbelievingly at on% another. "Of course," his lordship went on hastily, "it is understood that I per-; sonally am very eager for this wedding | to take place. It is understood that in j the interval before the ceremony I shall "Wall, say £100,000," suggested his lordship. do all in my power to keep Miss Mey rick to her present Intention. Should the marriage be abandoned because ol any net of mine I would be ready t< forfeit eU cla'ins on BoytTs," Mr. Thacker recovered- his breatt ! and bis voice at one and tbe same j time. •Treposterousr' he snorted. "Bee ging your ship's pardon, you can not expect hard headed business men to listen seriously to any such propo sition ns that Tushery, sir, tushery! Speaking as tbe American representa tive of Boyd's"— "One moment," interrupted Mr. Jeph sou. In bis eyes shone a queer light— n light such as one might expect to find in the eyes of Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up. '"One moment, please. What sum bad you in mind, Lord Harrowby?" "Well, say £100,000." suggested his lordship. "I realize that my proposi tion is fantastic. I really admitted as much. But"— "One hundred thousand pounds." Mr. Jephson repeated it thoughtfully. "I should have to charge your lordship J a rather high rate. As high as 10 per | eent." Lord Harrowby seemed to be in the throes of mental arithmetic. | "I am afraid," he said finally, "I 1 could not afford one hundred thousand at that rate. But I could afford—sev i snty-flve thousand. Would that be satisfactory. Mr. Jephson?" j "Jephson!" cried Mr. Thacker wildly. | "Are you mnd? Do you realize" — | "I realize everything, Thacker,'' said I Jepbson caJmly. "I have your lord-1 j ship's word that the young lady is at present determined on this alliance? ; And that you will do all in your power j to keep her to her intention?" ! "You have my word," said Lord Har | rowby. "If you should care to tele graph"— j "Your word is sufficient," said Jeph | son. "Mr. Minot, will you be kind i enough to bring me a policy blank?" | "See here, Jephson," foamed Thacker. ! "What if this thing should get into the newspapers? We'd be the laughing stock of the business world." "It mustn't," said Jephson coolly. "It might!" roared Thacker. | Mr. Minot arrived witti a blank pol ; Icy, and Mr. Jepbson sat down at the I young man's desk. | For a time there was no sound In i the room save the scratching of two i pens, while Mr. Thacker gazed open mouthed at Mr. Minot and Mr. Minot I light heartedly smiled back. Then Mr. Jephson reached for a blotter, j "I shall attend to the London end of this when I reach there five days | hence," be said. "Perhaps I can find ! another underwriter to share the risk i with me." As the door closed upon the noble -1 man Mr. Thacker turned explosively on i his friend from oversea, j "Jephson," he thundered, "you're an I idiot! A rank unmitigated idiot!" ; The Peter Pan light was bright in | Jephson's eyes. "So new," he half whispered. "So original! Bless the boy's heart. I've j been waiting forty years for a proposi i tion like that." 1 "Do you realize," Thacker cried, j "that £75,000 of your good money de pends on tbe honor of Lord Harrow j by?" "I do," returned Jephson. "And I | would not be concerned if it were ten times that sum. I know the breed. | Why, once—ami you. Thacker, would ; have called me nn idiot on that occa- I sion, too—l Insured his father against j the loss of a polo game by a team on J which the earl was playing. And be played like the devil—the earl did—won 1 the game himself. Ah, 1 know the ; breed." • "Oh, well," sighed Thacker, "I won't I argue. But one thing is certain, Jeph j son. You can't go back to England j now. Your place is In San Marco with I one hand on the rope that rings tbe | weddiug bells." i Jephson shook his great bald head. "No," he said. "I must return today. !It Is absolutely necessary. My Inter ests In San Marco are in the hands of j Providence." j Mr. Thacker walked the floor wildly. "Providence needs help In handling ! a woman," he protested. "Miss Mey rlck must not change her mind. Some one must see that she doesn't If you can't go yourself"— He paused, reflect ing. "Some young man, active, ca- I pable"— j Mr. Richard Minot had risen from his chair and was moving softly to j ward his overcoat.

I Mr. Minot sat, the dread of lome ! thing impending in his heart. I Mr. Thacker wheeled dramatically ! nnd faced bis young assistant. "Richard," he ordered, "go to San Marco. Go to San Marco and see to it that Miss Cynthia Meyrlck does not change her mind." A gone feeling shot through Mr. Mi not in the vicinity of bis stomach.
