THE HEART BREAKER A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY U) \ HtGINIA TEIIIIL'NE VAN DK WATEK CHAPTER XIV (Copyright. 1918, Star Company) "I don't care. Honors, you danced with him yourself!" Mildred was looking straight at her sister; her expression was defiant ar.d her eyes snapped. "I know I did," Honors acknowl edged. "And that was how 1 knew he had been drinking." "Well, and what of it? He was not drunk; even you must admit that." "I do admit It; but 1 also say that 1 felt very uncomfortable when you let him bring you home." "Well, he hud his ear there, and why should I not have drivei\ home in it?U ' „ "Because It looked very queer, Honors insisted "You and I came to gether, and we should have returned in our tuxicab. Instead, you went off with Tom Chandler." "In his car instead of In a cab, Mildred reminded iier. "In his father's ear," Honors re minded her. The' pair were walking downtown GIRLS! TRY 0"!

The altercation had been started by Mildred's expressed hope that she might see Tom Chandler often this winter and the statement that she liked him a great deal. To which re mark Honora replied that he had beeh drinking last night ohd that she dis approved of him. "And what If it was his father's car!" Mildred exclaimed. "What's the harm in that?" "I did not mean to intimate, m.v dear, that there was any harm in it," Ilonora tried to speak soothingly. "I only meant that Tom is not In a posi tion to own a car. He drives a very handsome one—but he did not buy it —nor does he pay for its upkeep. You, know that as well as I do." Honora Annoyed "Yes, and I know, too. that Arthur! Bruce drives a car that belongs to his I father, and that he does not pay fori its upkeep,' either. Yet you always j speak of him as if he were a paragon j of all the manly virtues." Honora bit her lips. She did noti want to betray how angry she was. j I "Arthur works, however," she com-1 mented. "Yes, because his father has given, him a job. But for that, lie might not do any more than Tom does, i Tom's father is a doctor, and. as the) son does not want to be a sawbones.; he can't step into his father's shoes. But he spends his money freely, J which is a good deal more than ! c'an| say for some men who have regular' positions." "It is easy to spend money one ■ does not earn!" Honora retorted. "Dr. j Chandler has always spoiled his hoy; outrageously, as you know." "Well, that dqesn't hurt me, does. It?" the younger girl argued. "Dear" (Honora laid her hand on | her sister's arm) "don't let us quarrel.. Few men are worth quarreling about.i 1 only spoke as I did because I do not] want you to do indiscreet things, qeari child. And, Milly. 1 saw you and Tom ill the conservatory last night. I did j not Intend to spy upon you, for 1 Cld i not know you were in there." Mildred looked up startled, then laughed. "Ho that's what started you off, is' it?" she questioned. All sounds cf| gnger had gone from hey voice, and, 'tft^sister wno knew her well mar-; vtled for the thousandth'time at heri sudden change of mood. Mildred for got her anger as soon as some other idea came into her mind. "Then you saw him kiss me, did you?" Wasn't it funny!" Funny?" Honora repeated, puzzled. "Why, yes—funny that he should have fallen a victim so soon"— with another laugh. "That's what I mean about him—the thing that makes hun so interesting—he is such a dar.'d'-vil j that he keeps a girl guessing all the time as to what he's going to start next. That's why I like him." Not nt All In I.ove "You care for him, do you, Milly?" Mildred raised her pretty eyebrows' at the question. "If by 'care' you moan' to ask If I love him—why, no; at least net yet. He's never paid me any at tention until this winter, for he has thought of me as a kid, he says.

Mrs. Jimmie?" asked Sheldon, as he followed mc into his low-hung gray racer. "Shall we make it a spin up the River road?" "Anywhere you like. Just to skim along in this adorable car's enough j for me," I replied, truthfully—for i getting my chagrin at the way I I Evvy had forced Sheldon to play 1 host to me, whether or not he liked | it. "You might have said just to skim j 1 along—with me —was enough for i you," sugested Sheldon, with such a nice boyish grin that I grinned right back to meet it. "I might have —but what's a com pliment from a staid old married woman like me?" Sheldon turned and examined me Critically. "Not so staid, Mrs. Jimmie. You're sparkling like u two-year-old be fore we even start." 'Well, I feel like a prancing colt turned out to pasture," I confessed. I've been shut in for days, you know." Sheldon patted my arm in what I took to be nice, big-brotherly fashion, and then silence fell be tween us. He devoted himself to the exacting task of driving through the heavy truftic- ef the.. av4:aue~,_. 1 ; became absorbed in the .luxury of rolling up that avenue as part of j the stream of pleasure cars, instead | of racing madly from curb to curb I in a wild effort io avoid the vaßt I tangle of onrushing wheels. "At last we reached the park, I Sheldon turned into it, and a clean, | woodsy smell blew across our faces. I drew a great breath of it into my lungs. "It's better than the dust and per fume and patchouli of the avenue," murmured Sheldon, as if agreeing with something I bad said. "Oh, how comfy of you to undera stand my sniffling like a little dog," '.I said. "To show how well I understand I'll drive down the paths where all the balsam and pine trees grow. So prance away, little colt —and sniff away, little dog!" i Of course, we laughed at our non ! sense—and that laugh made us ! really just as friendly and at hopie j with each other as we'd been pre- I tending to be. I "Like It?" asked Sheldon as we ! drove through a narrow path under ! a great cliff hung with birch and Pine. . , "Like it? I love It!" I cried. "Tliis is the flrst friendly little drive without quantities of folks along, I've had since—my honey moon. It rests me and makes nie feel all clean —and sweet." X wasn't coquettirtg when I said it, but all in a moment I knew Sheldon thought I was. He slowed the car, and leaning across the wheel, he looked Into my eyes and said, In a very quiet, intent voice: "You are sweet! You dear little, quaint little Lilac Lady you are sweeter than 1 ever guessed. You aren't afraid to say you're enjoy ing yourself and you aren't too blase to enjoy the simplest things. How under the sum have I man aged to miss you all these months. For just oiie minute I was in clined to put Sheldon firmly back In hiß place with an abrupt word. Then I thought of Jim —content to be alone with Evvy and talking me ! so completely for granted as his own j property that lie could bundle me ! out with Sheldon as calmly nat If i I were his maiden aunt. It was silly not to enjoy this ride—and if I squelched Sheldon he would right about-face and take me home. So I grinned as mischievously as I dared, and said: ••Well —I've missed you, too." "Meaning thgt I've managed to keep jny charm hidden pretty thor oughly—eh, what? Well —do you see it now? Do you begin to see what you've missed the way I do?" I asked Sheldon almost tenderly, as i the gray roadster drew out on the i River road and drove Into the heart jof a glorious crimson and purple j and gold spnset. "The river all tawny under Its purple shadows!" I criedi impul ' slvely, forgetting personalities be j fore the grandeur of the glowing , sky and water. "We'll drive on into the heart of the sunset —and then on into the dark —and then —and then, Little Lilac Lady?" asked Sheldon in a low voice with a queer vibrating n6 "And then we'll turn around and drive home again, I suppose,' I said in a dry, practical tone. For sud denly I had come to realise that Sheldon Blake was flirting with mi —flirting hard, and with all the cer tainty and fineness of a man to whom this was an old game. Waa he doing it merely because he was "that sort" and kept his hand in wUh any woman who came along? Or was. it because it hud piqued him to have Evvy send him out so unceremoni ously while she stayed along with Jim ? "We'll turn and drive home how, If you've had enough," Sheldon an swered grimly. Evidently he was sensitive, and my reply to his last bit of —senti- ment—had hurt him.' "Will you bring me out again?" I ventured to placatg him. , He turned and gripped my hand. "Surest thing you know! And, perhaps some day Jimmie and his sister Virginia, too." At this I smiled to myself. Of course! Why had 1 forgotten Vir ginia?

I felt sure Sheldon was thinking of Virginia, and the person of whom 1 was thinking was pretty closely related to her. I kept wondering over and over: "Is Jim happy alone with Evvy— or does he wonder, what 1 am do ing?" , In (lie fast falling twilight I took oft my hat and let the little evening breczis play through my \ hair.
