Oh, yes, he laid, looking in the direction of the lodge. Dad, why dont you like going to the lodge? "Well, for one thing I cant afford it, Vic. "Can Mother? "Ah, but they ask her. They don't let it cost her anything. "They give her dresses, too, Victoria said, thinking. "Who does?" "Mrs. Lester did that dark blue dreii. I thought she bought that at a ale?

I got too tired, and that's why I cried, and I'm a very silly mother. Victoria laughed the shadow of her own rich affectionate little laugh, and there were more kisses. Then she went back to her cold tumbled porch bed, and snuggled down inside it, and was asleep before the morning's first chill blanket of fog began to creep in across the level dim floor of the ocean. When they were at home in the city, Magda Herrendeen never got up for breakfast She always said that she loved getting up in the morning when there was anything n to da But in the apartment on Pine street there was not much to da Keith got himself a cup of coffee and boiled oats for Victoria, or scrambled eggs for them both. The rest waa just bread and butter, and milk poured from the bottle. Magda sometimes got up and got herself some orange juice, or even a cup of tea. She would come back with the mail, the newspaper carried with a smoking cup or the glass. Settling down again, she would yawn wearily; what horrible things were in the house for dinner, and what should be ordered? At eleven the telephone would ring, and then there would be a change. A change in her, and a change in the general atmosphere. My dear, I dont think I can today, she would say. But it sounds too divine! How late would we be? I see. Let me think , . . What are you wearing, Ethyl? . . . Yes, I have; I could wear the blue that Eleanor brought me from Paris . . , Yea, I know. But let me think about It and call you again!

In the night she wakened, and heard their voices her fathers and her mothers. Her mothers was almost inaudible, and had a "please hush note in it with which Victoria was entirely familiar. Her father's waa not very loud, but clear: I'm not saying it' a easy for you, Magda. I say it's simply your luck. We had it lota of it And God kows I didnt hold out on you then. Now we haven't got it any more, and that's your bad luck. Silence. Ard then Mother! voice, very low and gentle: Keith, I know how hard it la for you, dear. And if you feel that way I simply won't go.

Miss Herrendeen! her mother agreed, going into the bedroom with the boa Until she could return it, she would hide it, Victoria knew. Dad must know nothing of thia The afternoon dragged. After a while Victoria put on her old white serge skirt and a white thin sweater, pulled a small white hat over her bobbed head, end went to the library to get a new book. When she came back at five, her mother was entertaining a caller. It was a square, dark - skinned man, sprawled in a low chair, a glass of champagne between hia big brown hands. This is my little girl, Mr. Manners." Come, it was to be Ferdinand! the man said, hia voice end accent instantly betraying the Latin. It was not Magda countered simply, smiling. She was in something soft and cool and pale blue; he had had time to dress, time to draw shades and set the flowers about advantageously. Are you going up to Helen's? he was presently asking. He paid no attention to Victoria. Magda hook her head. "You're not? the man demanded surprised. My little spare tire, Victoria's mother said, her arm about her. But good gracious, take her! Connie's girl must be about her age. "No, Magda said, gently shaking her had. "Not just now, anyway. But it must be lovely up there! Fve never been there, you know. Phyllis was telling me of some place the Braverman place right on the water "But that's just the place I am going to buy I Ferdinand Manners exclaimed. When Magda presently went out of the room to bring him her Spanish shawl, he asked Victoria if she knew that she had a very beautiful mother. He bent hie russet head over the shawL "Yea that la a fine shawl, he said. "What does the man offer you? Victoria waa shocked. Was Mother going to sell the famous old shawl? She law that her mother hadn't wanted her to know. He offers me three hundred Marsh. It's to be edged with fur for a wrap. Theyll take all this off. Magda ran her fine thin hand through creamy silk fringes so stiff that they looked like cotton. Just a week later Victoria brought In a great box just delivered from Marshs; the shawl was inside. It had been changed into a sumptuous evening wrap with a border all the way about it of soft white fur. And this gift her mother did not return. She put it away in the greet trunk that always stood in her room; there was small closet space in the apart- Victoria supplied "Divorcea imply, as her mother paused. Magda laughed, with a little touch of color in her face. "Well, yes, divorcea' Everything is whirling all the while visitors from the East, the polo teams, the golf people. You can't let go. To get out of It for two months to decline five invitations in a row, Vic would mean you were out forever. Again Victoria looked at her thoughtfully, puzzle dly. "And would Dad like you to do that, Mother? "Why, he's been so glum and silent these last months I hardly know. Ever since you and I went down to Santa Barbara last summer he'i seemed to feel he has a grievance." Again the beautiful affectionate eyes filled with tears. Victoria's heart ached for her with a fierce wrench of pain and sympathy. She knew of what her mother was thinking on these hot days; she waa thinking of her friends at Tahoe, and up on the Klamath river, and down on the cool shorei of Pebble beach and Santa Barbara Presently Magda came back to the question: "You do see that it's hard for me, Victoria? What would you do? Victoria Oh, yes; oh, yea agreed. Its It's hard on us all! "Hard on you, too, dear? Her mother asked quickly, in a tone that shrank away from pain. "Hard to see you unhappy and see him unhappy, Victoria said, her eyes watering. There was a ring at the door. Victoria was glad to go to answer it; the conversation had gotten completely out of hand. She came in with a great box of flowers; there were often boxes of flowers, but not often as large as thia Victoria ran about getting vases for them. "And whats in the box. Mother, the little box? Mrs. Herrendeen was smiling superbly, shaking her head. The card, twisted and wired in a wet envelope, was in her hand; the little square jewelers box Whats in it with it. Mother? Victoria insisted. I hate to look," the women said. I know it's going to make me angry. Angry?- I think sa Oh, Magda murmured, under her breath, he has no right to do that! Do you know who It is before you even read the card. Mother? I think I da I think its my very rich friend, Mr. Manners, The Spanish one? He is half Spanish, I believe. Magda slowly brought forth the card, glanced at it, crumpled it to pulp. Victorias eager eyes were upon her aa she opened the little box, cutting its heavy cords and breaking away the wax seals. There were a cardboard box, a light wooden box. a lined jewel case in which a heavy diamond bracelet waa flashing and gleaming on a " .. satin cushion.

I guess I should diet but in this dress I feel nice and slender. Dont you see, girls, how important it is to choose a style that's particularly becoming?
