Another woman would probably have launched this disctsion as soon as I came into her house. But Virginia as I was now cotu*ng to understand rould never easily break down the barriers of her own reserve and pride. She had always to work herself up gradually, to a point of complete frankness. "Ajtne. did Jim say anything more bout the way we schemed to get him into Tony's office?" she asked abruptly after two or three efforts to introduce the subject easily and 1 naturally. "Not about your part in it. I re- , turned truthfully, if evasively. "Jim was very angry at me. I don t. know whether or not we re on speak- ! ing terms." said Yirg.nia, trying to ( act as if it were all a joke. "He was angry with Anthony Nor reys." I said, hoping that I wouldn't have' to reveal how far this anger with j Tonv had swept us both. • No or.e could positively stay angry at Tonv long. He's the salt of the earth Jim just doesn t know hint. I and it hurts his pride to think he had i to accent help from Tony. \ou wait till Jim's riding around in his own I car." "What difference will that make. I demanded eagerly. "All the difference in the world . Ton\ s new to Jim. and that proud brother of mine hates pity or help even from his very own. So can you Imagine how this Tony galls him?" replied Virginia with as surance. "It didn't fully reassure me. how ever. because 1 feared that Jim's atti tude toward Tony was one of those instinctive dislikes that go deeper than reason and so can't be dealt with by reason. llalf smilingly I thought of , the old rule: "I do not like you. Hector Fell. The reason why I cannot tell : But this is what I kr.ow full well— I do no: like you. Doctor Fell." "Yes. I can see how the situation galls Jim " 1 replied, "and I think the memory of it will always keep Jim from liking Tony." "Nonsense 1" said Virginia allwisely. this would have closed the discus sion even if we hadn't arrived at the theatre at just that minute. All through the play, which the ap plause marked as sufficiently interest ing to command and hold every one else's attention, my mind kept w.inder ir.g back to Virginia's suggestion. I ■treaded the thought of pinning Jim down to a discussion of money matters. *T ut it seemed to me that if I calmly . nd like a real pal insisted on a pro per adjustment of our everyday affairs, things really might go more smoothly, between us. By the end of the third net I was fully resolved to try the thing out "on a business basis." At, the mere idea my heart thumped mad-; •v. but J though.: I'd probably get used to our new cool friendliness in a day or two and be ready to introduce the financial element into it before long. "Shall we go for tea?" asked Yir-, ginia, as we crowded our way up the aisle. "I'd love to—only this is my can teen evening, and I'll be late as it is" I replied, rather thankful that I ' didn't have to sit at a table and ( reveal my sketchy knowledge of the When you want to make flaky MfcE pomdJ biscuit, delicious muffins and liL'lujjlliliJß gems, real doughnuts and cake of fine texture then you need RUMFORD ■ ■ THE WHOLESOME WKKm BAKING POWDER "Every Day Is Starting Day" At the S. of C., but the Best Time to Begin is NOW This will be the time when thousands and thousands of young men and women throughout the United States will enroll in one of the many Accredited Business Schools of our Country.

My unl ; form's there." "And I have your hundred dollars ■ ; for feeding poor boys," replied Yir ginia. "Tony gave it to me—said of course, he couldn't bother Betty now. and that you liked getting it ' through a middleman. Then Jeanie turned to me with a new thought. "Why. Anne, is my brother evil i ; minded or jealous?" 1 "Oh. it isn't that." I turned, eager jto tell niv half-truth. "But naturally j I can't always get in touch with i Tony on account of mv own home af | fairs. So it is easier to get his do nation from some one who can meet Tonv for lunch or dinner when she I likes." Virginia studied me keenly for a second Then she motioned me into the taxi. ; which had just made its wide sweep lof the congested square and returned i for us. And as I went forward Pat ' Balton stepped tip to 'he curb from ! behind the concealing taxi and came ; face to face with both of us. At once Yirginia turned away to give her directions to the driver. With only : a moment's hesitation. Pat swept off his hat and I bowed gravely. After I had done it T wondered if Virginia I would be offended: if she would feel | that I had owed it to her to pretend that T did not see Pat. | Virginia studied me keenly fora second , into the taxi that I determined to fol i low up our frankness by asking ber I how she felt about by friendship with the man who had once been everything in the world to her and to whom she would not now even offer a casual greeting on the street. "Virginia, you don't mind—feel hurt 4 —think it's disloyal to you for me to speak to—him?" I ventured stumb ling! v. "Whv of course not 1 T think your friendship may save him from a great deal." said Virginia, with carefully averted eyes Titer. sho> turned to me , and went on with less constraint ; "Be cause we happen to be close doesn't mean that T expect you to see only the people with whom I'm friendly. You're a free woman, you know, with , a right to opinions -and friendships of your own Now that's all clear the last barrier to our being real sisters has gone down, hasn't it. Anne'."' There was a lonely, almost a plead ing note in Virginia's voice. It gave me a glimpse of how empty a woman's life can be when love is gone. Almost in terror I caught her hand. "You're generous and broadminded. Jeanie." I replied" T wish more people were like you. Indeed. I do feel we really are sisters now. There was a moment of silence. Then Virginia turned and studied me attentively. In the half light of the cab I fancied that her eyes were wet. and wondered if she saw that mine were dim. ■To Be Continued.

Instead she made Mrs. Higgins comfortable for the night, assisting her into bed and giving her such medicine as her physician had prescribed. ■*l am sure my sciatica is getting better." the invalid remarked after she was comfortably settled for the night. The rest and treatment have helped me very much." "I hope you will sleep well. Honora stooped to drop a kiss on her companion's forehead. If >o u want anything, ring your bell." "1 will," the other promised. Honora had reached the door when a sudden thought made her pause. "if you hear any movements about the house in the night do not be disturbed. 1 told Arthur that if his mother needed any one to stay with her, or to look after her, he must send or come over here. So, if you hear au arrival do not be startled." "No, I won't." Mrs. Higgins as sured her. "But it' Mildred goes make her wrap up warmly. It is a cool night." "I doubt if Mildred goes." Ho nora considered it wiser to make this statement now so as to avoid embarrassing questions later. "She is tired. 1 will go lu her place." "Well, I suppose as xou are older, you are the one —only as Arthur s betrothed I should suppose Mil dred would go—wouldn't you?" Honora pretended not to hear this query, but went on out of the room, closing the door behind her. A Hard Time Ahead In the upper hall she stood still ' in the darkness, pondering. She knew that a disagreeable in terview was ahead of her. Mildred was probably repentant by this ; time, and in a tearful mood. In which, ease the older sister would have to comfort her and to assure ' her that she would do her best to explain to Arthur that she, Mildred. . had not understood how ill his father was and ask him to overlook any peculiarities in her behavior. Such peculiarities must be attribut ed to her anxiety. Hut here Hcnora hrought herself. ■up with a jerk. If Mildred had been anxious, it was because she ap -1 preciated how ill Arthur's father was. In which case it was certainly i heartless of her to amuse herself • with Tom ('handler. Moreover, what was all this about Miss Jasper?" Had Miss Jasper been here at all° If so why had she gone home before ; dinner. Mildred must be faced sooner or j later, and the sooner the better. Of j course the child would be repentant and apologetic. Although Honora disapproved of Mildred's course of action, her repentance always won her pity and foregiveness. She went downstairs prepared to meet a tearful penitent; instead of ; which, on entering the library, she was confronted by an indignant ; young woman who began at once to talk, her eyes, snapping, her , hands clenched. "It seems to me." Mildred'broke forth hotly, "that I have a right to I demand that several things be ex ; plained to me. Honora." i Honora caught her breath in sur : prise. This was a strange revearsal !of positions. She had expected to j console Mildred before asking for ; an explanation from her—and here , was Mildred demanding that she. (.Honora, eplxain herself.

"Do not talk so loudly, and please do not speak like that about such an awful thing as Air. Bruce's death." "Oh, don't take that tone with mc, llouora!" Mildred explained. "I am not going to put up with it. "What I want to know is why 1 was not sent for long ago." I "Because you declined to come when Arthur asked you to." was the blunt reply. "Yes, 1 did last night. I did not think it was proper for me to go over there late at night and stay. Besides, you wanted to go yourself, land 1 saw that you wanted to, so |1 stepped aside and let you take ray place. "And then you went back there again to-day. without ever telling me how ill Air. Bruce was and everybody will say that I—engaged to Arthur and not wanted there, and that you were. I suppose you knew that man was dying, didn't you? Well, then, why was I not sent for?" "You would not have come." the j sister asserted. "And 1 knew that you would not. Why should I have made. Arthur more miserable by letting him know that too?" "Oh. you wanted to comfort him yourself, did you?" the younger girl ; scoffed. "Well, you might have given a little thought to me in my anxiety and trouble." Honora stood looking at the an gry creature and thinking very fast. Surely the time hail come for I her too, to speak plainly. "Alilly." she said, "you force me to say things that may seem un kind. But as frankness seems to i be the order of the day, I will be frank with you. "Arthur wanted you to go to his mother last night you refused because you did not want to go not because of any serupples on the score of propriety. Wait"—as .Mil dred tried to interrupt—"propriety is not your forte, my dear. Had it been, you would not have dined alone with Tom Chandler to-night. "Had you loved Arthur you would not have done it.
