THE LOVE GAMBLER By Virginia Terhune Van de Water CHAPTER XVII It was a warm, elear Sunday of the last week In Oetoberi David tie "■ Lalne had been Informed by his em ployer that the caa- would not be reeded unttl the afternoon. "You ean have your morning to yourself," MP. Lelghton had soldi Thus It came nbout that David did not put on his livory on arising In the morning, buti insteadi his own clothes. After which he went to a restaurant for his break fast then decided to go to the cathe diol on Mornlngslde Heights for J1 o'clock service. It was some months since he had attended church. He had dropped the habit when he enlisted. He did not know that he had missed the old custom until this morning, as ho list ened to the familiar service and Joined In the singing of well-known hymns, During the sermon that fol lowed he let his thoughts stray back to the days before the war, when, as he phrased It to himself, ho had been "like real people." He thought of his aunt, of her Bal timore home, of her kindness—some times, it must be admitted, of an of ficious quality—and he mused with a painful interest on her plans for him, on her pleadings that he become acquainted with Dssiree Beighton. T'oor Aunt Jeanne! It was to be hoped that in the land of shades she could not see his present position! So intent had been his thoughts of his departed relative that for a mo ment It did not seem strange to him, on leaving the cathedral, to come face to face with an elderly woman who had been Miss De Lalne's friend and neighbor. An Old Friend "Why, Mr. De Laine!" she exclaim ed. "Is it you?" "Miss Bristol!" he ejaculated, seiz ing the hgnd she hcl<j out. "It cer tainly is. I—David Pe Laine." Then, all at once, lie remembered \vh6 he was to be, and ihanked a kind Providence that he was not in livery. "But what are you doing here?" she asked. "I thought you were in France." "I was," he told her, piloting her down the walk, toward the side en trance where stood sundry automo biles. He hoped her car was await ing her here. "But what are y<?u doing now?" she insisted. "Walking witli a very charming woman," he retorted, smilingly. "And what are you doing yourself? I sup posed you w.ere in Baltimore." "I ran on for a few days to do some shopping," the spinster ex plained. "I am staying at the Astor. I came up in a taxi. It was to be here for me at 12.15. Ah, there it is nowi" "Tou go back tt> -Baltimore soon!" he querted in the effort to forestall another question from her. "Yes—to-morrow. Can't you come Are you always successful on baking day? Are your cakes light and spongy and your biscuits white and flaky?

You remind me so much of your dear aunb Oh, how she loved you!' 1 "I believe she d'di" he said gently. "And because of that I do want to see your' she remarked, I "When 1 am again In Baltimore I bill he glad to call. If I may," he re joined. They were standing by the cab now, and he made as though to help her Into It. "But 1 wish I could see you before then," she protested, "Can't you call this afternoon?' 1 "I am sorry," he said, "but I have an engagement." "And 1," she said, "have an engage ment tonight. You recall hearing your dear viVint speak tjf Deslree heighten, of whom she Wan So fond?' 1 " Yes," Kvnnlve Answers "You knew her, didn't you?" Miss Bristol asked. "I never happened to call at Aunt Jeanne's while she was there," David answered evasively, "No? Wall, 1 got to know her quite well when she visited your aunt. You may remember the heightens lived In New York. I telephoned Deslree yesterday, and she Invited me to come up to dinner with them this evening. But for that I would ask you to rail tonight." "I,et me put you Into your cab," he suggested. After she was seated she detained I him when ho would have closed the door. "You have not told me where you are living, or why you are not In France." "I still count Baltimore as my home," he said hurriedly, "and I hope I am on my way back to France." "You go soon." "As soon as X can get off." "Within the next day or two?" she asked. He pretended not to hear her. "The Hotel Astor," he said to the driver. After which, raising his hat, he stepped back out of her range of vision. As he walked down the hill toward the point at which he was to take the stage downtown, he wiped the perspiration from his forehead. The day was warm, but the molst ! ure on his face was not caused by | the temperature, but by the ordeal through which he had Just passed. Miss Bristol here —and taking din | ner with the Leighton's to-night. If this kind of thing went on, how much longer could he conceal his ] identity? He felt as much frightened" as a small boy detected in some bit of thievery. "Yet, 1 am doing nothing dishonor able," he reminded himself. "I am only trying to earn my living in a decent way. I wish I could change my face as easily as I change my clothes. This is the second time this week that I have escaped by the skin of my teeth. Suppose Miss Bristol had "recognised me in Vny- livery!

Copyright, 1919 King Features Syn dicate, Inc. We were booked to start for Ma son Towers early Saturday morning, so I had only time for a wee tele phone chat with Phoebe. I suppose this was just as well, for In my first bitterness at Jim's lack of faith in mo 1 might have blurted out the facts which were ur/pleasant and would have worded themselves about like this: "Phoebe, Jim won't— understand the Dick West situation. There's no record of your trans actions on the books of the com pany, so he won't believe they ever took placo. And he thinks his part ner is a very elegible man: whom you would do well to marry. This is all the help we can count on from Jim." Naturally over the phone I didn't commit myself liko that. I just listened to Phoebe's happy assurance that my check was already indorsed over the West, and offered her my assurance in turn that as soon: as we got back I'd see her and we'd decide what to do next. What that "next" was to be I hadn't the least idea. My own personal "next" was to hurry down stairs and join Jim, who had gone ahead; to take our bags down to the waitin-g Cosby automo bile. When I got down to the street there sat Tom Mason in the Cosby car on very chumy terms with Va lerie and Lane. I hadn't expected to enjoy the party, and Tom's presence didn't change the prospects for the better. "These nice people picked me up," he explain-ed. "Evvy's gone out ahead in her roadster." Who was with Evvy in that road ster no one said. Perhaps no one knew. But when he arived at Ma son Towers, a great rambling coun try place, Neal sat on the veranda with Evvy, waiting for us. He called a greeting to Jim ir* the most matter-of-fact way imaginable. This was the very thing I had been long ing for, and yet I got no pleasure from their reconciliation, since it took place under Evelyn Mason's auspices. Seeing Neal there ore the steps with his red curls unflung in DAILY HINT ON ! FASHIONS AN UP-TO-DATE COSTUME 2836—The "growing" girl will al ways look trim when dressed like this jaunty model.

"Here we are a nice little family party, an-d if you don't all act as if you owned every grass blade on the place I'll hate you. Oh, yet—in troductions are in order. Neal tells mo he doesn't know Anne's new neighbors. Very tin-neighborly I call j it for Anne to keep her nice brother a secret from you, Mrs. Cosby." Back of tho purr in Evvy's voice I felt the scratch. And I caught her looking significantly at Valerie Cos by as she presented Neal. "Hands off!" Evvy added in an exaggerated stage whisper, "No poaching! Neal's my partner. I I ought to have or.-o for you, Mr. I Cosby—for, of course, cousin Tom ! mie will claim his Donno Anna. I Still 1 think you and 1 have —a lot j to talk over." It was all said very lightly with | the air of wide-eyed innocence Evvy | reserves for her most daring re marks. Everyone laughted, but I, for one, knew Evvy meant what she said—and more. l.ane Cosby looked ! from Val to Evvy. There was a question in his quick glance. For luncheon and the early after noon we all stayed together. But presently Evvy disappeared to re turn in a sprightly sweater and tarn, i "Neal ami I are going canoeing," she announced. "There are plenty qf boats for every one. And tennis Thai path to trie left of tho gate leads to the pine woods and—Lover's Lane. Go to it, children. Make yourselves at home. Dinner's seven thirty. Ami tea for the ravening will be here on the terrace at five. At ten the neighbors are coming in for dancing. An 'voir." "She's an ideal hostes. She leaves us alone," said Val lazily. Then her voice took on a provocative note. "But unless some one proves very amusing I shall feel piqued and say she took the nicest of our men." "What do you want to do?" begged Jim defensively, but Lane Cosby jumbled in on the conversation as if Jim hadn't spoken. He spoke straight to Val: "She leaves us alone," he repeated. "That's good—for a time 1 was afraid she wouldn-'t." Again I sensed that mysterious something that seemed almost like fear. "Isn't it time for a nap?" asked Val, yawning elaborately, but with keen, wideawake eyes fixed on her husband. "Suppose wc go in for a rest Cosby. If you'll be here in an hour or so I'll give you tea, Jimmie. And I suppose the energetic folks will—in-vestigate the pine woods and Lover's Lane." "That's us, Donna Anna," said Tom as Val swept Lane Cosby away in her wake. "Mrs. Cosby is dispos ing of everyone—even taking the extra man off and putting him to sleep. Want us to stay with you urrtil she gets back, Jimmie?" "No. Run along," said Jim. "I was planning to show Anne the old Harrison place, but v. a tAven't time to get there and back in an hour.

Torn Mason laid his hand or? my elbow and piloted me along as se renely as If I hadn't stood In his office only a fortnight before and told him that he was an utter cad and that I refused to have anything to do with him again outside of busi ness. He seemed to have forgotten. So what was there for me to do? It was Jim who was ordering me off to view his old home under Tom Mason's guidance. And Jim was waiting under"the trees for Valerie Cosby to come back front quieting whatever fears Evvy had wakened in Igtne's ntind. As if he read* nty thoughts, Tom Mason halted at the narrow gate way leading to a leafy little lane. "If you don't trust me. I won't force my society on you," he said. "Half a mile up that lane is the gate to the old Harrisan place. If you don't want me to come with you, I'll sit here and wait for you to return, and ther? we can go back and join tho others for tea." "Oh, come on," I said. After all, why shouldn't he? Jim had sent him, and I could care for myself. (To Be Continued.) Peace League Starts Campaign Against Knox Resolution By Associated Press.
