He wants you, Mark, and he wants you quick. Im going. Mark Trent paused Good-nigh- t, on the threshold. Brooke. Well finish our talk CHAPTER XVI Well finish our talk tomorrow. A month had passed since Mark Trent had flung those words as her, since she had left Lookout House. They had echoed to the accompaniment of the whir of the wings of the great plane in which she had flown south at the urgency and the expense of Carstons Inc.; they had intruded in business hours; they had flitted like wraiths through her dreams. The days slid past breathlessly. She was conscious of a sort of breathless urge to keep up with something which was escaping her. Keep up with what, she asked herself, as in the flower scented dressing room of Carstons, Inc. she slipped out of the green organza number she had been modeling and into a frock of cool yellow linen. She was looking out unseeingly at the palm bordered white street when Madame Celeste entered. Her thin white frock rested Brookes eyes after the rainbow collection she had put on and off for the last two hours. You done noble, cherie, the woman approved heartily. There was something in her nasal twang as refreshing as a breeze from a thousand New England hills. "That last customer is one of the richest girls in the country. She ordered all the gowns you modeled. You look kind of tired, youve a right to, cherie. after landing that whale of an order. Get some lunch here, go home and rest until four, then come back. You will dress here, the society models will dress at the Shaws sports house. Sidone will be there to help them. Youll be the only professional mannequin, but I wouldnt trust an amateur to show that wedding gown. The charity fete begins at five. The wedding party will be the last feature of the style show. Look your best. We expect that some prospective bride will snap up the whole outfit when she sees you walk up the ribbon and flower bordered aisle in that heavenly white satin veiled in a mist of tulle. Youll make a ravishing bride, cherie; it will be your last appearance, so knock their eyes out. The words last appearance penetrated the turmoil in Brooke's mind. Last appearance! What do you mean? Madame Celeste twisted her amCherie, dont go ethyst beads. white on me. You know business hasnt been too good, and I have my orders. After the fashion show I'm to hand you a check for your commissions and a monihs pay and you're through. "But but I thought I had sold a lot of frocks since 1 came. "You have, and you can search Never me for the boss's reasons. know him to turn a trick like this before but, I ask you, is any business being run as it ever was run before?, Ill tell the world it Isnt. Im terribly sorry to lose you." For an instant, emotion threatened damage to the enameled calm of the womans face. Brooke was still puzzling over the dismissal when she reached the small Bermuda-typ- e house, with its whitewashed roof and walls built around two sides of a patio, In which she had been living since she had come to Palm Beach, and entered her room. She changed from the yellow cotton frock to white shantung pajamas. She picked up letters from a desk, pushed open a window, stepped out on the gallery and breathed deeply of the light thin air. She opened a letter from Lucette. For the first two pages the word "Jerry monopolized space; to even a feeble-mindeperson it would be evident that Jerry Field was leading in a long stag line. Brooke was glad of that, but how did Lucette manage to take on all the festivities apd be fit for her work in the morning? As if she had anticipated the question, Lucette wrote, with words heavily underlined for emphasis: After this evening I'll cut out the night spots. Theres nothing in them for me. So stop worrying about little sister, darling, and get this: I want to be like you, Brooke. You dont smoke, you dont drink, and yet Ive never seen a man who, when introduced to you, didnt stand a little straighter, fuss with his tie, and look get that in his eyes; and youre grand fun and the life of the party. There, you have the inside story of my life, so what? Never thought I would let you know how I adored you bad for you but here it is. Lucette. P. S. News flash! Sams play may be produced any day. Its predecessor is folding up; it was a terrible flop. Brooke shut her eyes to keep back tears. She had known that Lucette loved her, but that she set her on a pedestal was unbelievable. As to look in that a mans eyes, she should have seen Mark Trents when he had called her a schemer in Jed Stewarts d office. Why think of it? Hadnt she plenty of happier things to think of? She glanced at the clock. Sams play might be produced any day. She had lost her job. She was free to go to New YorkI Could she afford it? Why did that grubby question have to pop up to take the joy out of life? Of course she would go. She V1 i fi v vrs, ter. It parted. Buoyant, foamy, it closed over her. Marvelous feeling. This would stabilize her mind, drown haunting memories. She swam with quick strokes, turned, floated, came back arm over arm, and, dripping with coolness, waded out to the shore. A man rose from the shadow of the dark hibiscus hedge outside the patio. Its scarlet flowers seemed to nod at her in amused derision as she stopped in surprise. Mark Trent! This was the cue for cool sophistication. He held out the beach coat she had dropped on the sand. ' Put this on, Brooke. Lets sit here. I want to talk to you and we may be interrupted inside. "How did you know where I was? "Ive been playing round with Lucette, more or less. Saw Sam when I came through New York. "Sam! How was he? "Nerves taut as violin strings, otherwise in great shape.

But, having blundered, shed better see it through with die light touch. From a letter from Mrs. Gregory the other day. It was full of news, ' all about Mark Trent and Daphne Field, the current lady of his heart. Shes a grand gossip. Mark Trents eyes drew Brookes like a magnet. Was the light in his laughter?

They have a mistaken idea that when a fire is low, all they have to do is to shake the grates vigorously and the fire will flare up again. Nothing could be further from the fact. A shallow, fire cannot be revived by shaking most of the remaining coals into the ashpit. The simple way to revive it is to add a sprinkling of fresh coal, giving it time to ignite. When it is burning well, shake the grates gently, stopping when the first red glow shows in the ashpit. Then refuel the fire, remembering to fill the firebox to the level of the bottom of the fire door. This will provide a deep fire, which is considerably more economical than a shallow one, for it burns less coal and lasts a longer period of time. Also, it minimizes the attention you have to give a shallow fire in trying to revive it. ut You havent answered Jeds letters notifying you that the amount Daphne!

I didnt answer because you both know without being told that I wont touch that money. Mark Trent loomed over her. Put this on again, he commanded grimly. Why won't you touch that money? Brooke thrust her arms into the beach coat he held and stuck her unsteady hands into the pockets. Would you take a cent of Mary Amanda Danes when I thought it mine? Didnt you say in that snobby voice of yours the afternoon we met in Jed Stewarts office: Hope youll enjoy the house and fortune, Miss Reyburn.

Slowly she came with head slightly bent, eyes presumably on the mass of white Trans- vaal daisies and stevia she carried. Brooke felt the surge of motion as everyone stood up a tribute to Madame Celestes stagecraft the wedding procession was so perfect that habit had brought the audience to its feet. She must keep her attention on the girls in front why had Mark Trent come to Palm Beach this heavenly music made one all trembly inside would she never reach the spot where she was to turn three stairs to mount before she reached it. Something pulled at her eyes like a magnet. She looked up. A group of men was standing near the steps. All wore white suits with blue shirts and identical ties of Java print; each one had a boutonniere of deep blue bachelor buttons in the lapel of his coat; all were smiling broadly, she could feel their repressed excitement. Mark Trent was with them. His face went colorless with surprise as his eyes met hers in the instant before she bent her head again. Why was he here? Was this the fete a bunch of friends had urged him to attend? Onel Two! Three! The stairs. She was up.

She must smile. "Ready! She heard the whispered word, saw the men in white who had been standing beside the stairs hurdle the guarding ribbon. One offered his arm to her. Urged huskily: "Quick! Let's put it through. She looked up. Mark Trent! All the bitterness and pain went out of her heart. It was as if a great wall she had built between them had crumbled to a heap which she could cross. In a flare of gorgeous happiness she slipped her hind under his arm. "It would be you, she said, and smiled in the second before they were in step with the music. Behind her she heard peals of laughter, girls voices, mens voices. Then applause. A woman called: How priceless!
