"TO never forget what you haredone for me tonight." Jane saidearnestly."And we'll go on being: friends?"

he pleaded."We shall! I promise! And

you must tell me more aboutPeggy. I like to believe there isalways.one." Jane mused.

"That's why I should feel so

badly if Joe or Hal felt about youth* way I did about Peggy." heexplained."And you really didn't care for

yourself?" Jane asked. She couldnot forget that Teddy had pro¬tested he worshipped the ground.he walked upon.

"I thought I wanted to forget.Pve tried all summer to make a

new ideal of you! But.".'I failed you," Jane sighed

guiltily."I'm rather glad the whole

thing's settled." he said in a lowtone. "I can go back to old mem¬ories anyway. I'll get her pictureout of the trunk tonight. I hidher away, you know.trying toforget.""Teddy boy!" Jane cried sym¬

pathetically and squeezed his handwarmly.

"I wonder If anybody will ever

love me that way." Jane sighed."You can never tell. It may be

Joe or Hal.I hope not! Butwhoever It Is.be square withyourself and hira!"

"I think you've made me see

things right. Teddy." Jane acknowl¬edged. All the way up the shoreahf» was wondering whether Mr.Roberts could care that way. andhow he woold act when she ar¬

rived in New York!r'ould he be the one for her?"God's will be done," her mother

had said. As Jane fell asleep thatnight she thought of the romanceof Teddy's young love. Somehowshe couldn't feel that marrying a

man as old as Mr. Roberts couldbe God's will.and certainly notwhat the stars had been winkingat her all evening!The next day Jane prepared to

leave for New York.The other men tried to propose

to her. One of them was Hen¬derson. the rich bachelor whoowned the hotel. He was very fatand funny, but Jane profited fromher talk with Teddy and did notchaff him. The other man was a

poet.very stricken with sonnets.who lived in the Dill Pickle quar¬ter. Jane thought him very in¬

teresting. but too pale.When the train pulled off for New

York. Jane's heart was still ficklebut free!

"I wondtr how Hattie is gettingon." Mrs. Richards mused. "Wemust have her over for dinner rightaway."

"I think she will marry Mr. Car-ruthers." Jane ventured.

"Impossible." her mother laughed."Hattie is such a tomboy."

"But she knows what she wants,and she has set her heart on him.

"It's absurd' She's not in hissphere."

That makes no difference, moth¬er If she loves him. and It's thereal thing, she can make herselfInto the sort of girl that would beJn his sphere. Love works mira¬cles!"

^*But. my dear!"Hattie has the advantage of

Knowing what she wants. That'swhere other girls fail, and theirchances slip by." Jane sighed.

pleased to have her admit that shewas in love and perhaps engagedto Teddy, but all she said was:"How silly.""It was Mrs. Blanchard!" her

mother said positively. "She In¬sists she saw it with her own eyes.'

"It's Just like that old gossip!'Jane said crossly. and turned tolook out" of the window.Her mother watched Jane out of

the corner of her eye. She wsfc>unconvinced. Jane knew that shtwould be in for trouble, if 1

mother persisted in the idea of get¬ting her married.

"I really couldn't marry.becauseI'm too interested in my work," shetried to say casually."Work should be a means.not

an end." Mrs. Richards argued withthat aristocratic shrug that alwaysannoyed Jane. She was the sortthat liked to call a salary an al¬lowance.Tears were in Jane's eye* and

she felt out of joint with the wholeworld. Her own little philosophyhad sufficed up to now. "He whofinds his work finds happiness."Jane had believed that, and hadbeen successful on the strength ofit. Even now as she repeated thewords, the inspiration came towrite another little story. Shetook out pad and pencil.The wraith of Teddy's romance.

Jane entitled It "The One." andwrote it with all her heart andsoul. Even when her mother in¬sisted they go into the diner forsupper Jane clung to pad and pen-cil and stole time, between courses

to add paragraphs. The storyburned in her brain and she feltthe throb of it In her young heart.It was real! Peggy and Teddy! Itwas the first real thing Jane hadever writteji, and «he knew that ithad.feeling.Jane's cheeks were flushed with

excitement as she scribbled downanother page that painted therdream of love so richly. She wascarried away with it! Then thetrain gave a sudden lurch and thewaiter spilled a soup tureen overthe table. The passionate effusionwas soaked in clam chowder! Itwas disillusioning.

"I beg your pardon, miss!" thegentleman of color apologised.Jane tried to wipe oft the paperand fan it dry from the greasysoup."Throw It away, why don't you?"

her mother asked, rather annoyed."It's the best thing I ever

wrote," Jane complained."I wish you wouldn't write so

much, it makes you nervous." shesighed rather peevishly, and thena young man across the wayhanded Jane a tablet of paper, say¬ing with an amused smile:"Won't you accept this paper?

It's a shame to douse your inspira¬tion that way." he laughed. "I've
