“Men with money! Men with
money!” she chanted, her smile cry
ptic. “I think I’ll spend a month
this summer at Bretton Woods. At-;
ter that—”
David laughed carelessly. “An
drea is devoted to everybody,” he
said still smiling.
“She is apparently more devoted
to you than you know,” Gilthorp re
iterated. deliberately sounding the
man out.
“She is probably no more devoted
to me than she is to you,” David
retorted. Amazement swept Gil
thorp’s mind. Was David stalling
or was he genuinely unaware of An
drea’s feeling for him, he wondered
He looked at David intently. The
man seemed sincere.
“After my frank admission to you
that I stole this money for Eloise, I
should think you’d realize where my
heart is," David went on, his manner
apparently forthright. “A man does
not do a thing like that casually."
“But I think Andrea is really in
love with you,” Gilthorp insisted.
• “That’s silly,” David retorted.
“Andrea is a marvellous girl. She’ll
make some man very happy but I
belong to Eloise. I’ll always belong
to her."
David’s reply sent Gilthorp into
an avenue of private conjecturing.
Did Andrea know that David didn’t

tumbling out in frantic confusion.
“I’m so glad for you, David,”
Eloise said with genuine sincerity.
She found herself impressed with
i the aura of well being and success
which already seemed to surround
him.
“I’ll have to work all through the
summer—the show, opens in the
fall—but it will be worth it,” David
went on, impulsively breaking into
song at the end of his sentence.
“Your name will be in electric
lights," Eloise said, finding his
mood contagious.
“Well, I wanted you to be the
first to know, and now I’ll have to

arms and hold her against

going together — on a honeymoon
trip — to Europe or around the
world. Something of his longing con
veyed itself to Andrea. She reached
up impulsively and kissed his
cheek. In the brief, shy gesture,
she tried to tell him without words
all her pent-up feelings of apprecia
tions and gratitude.
“I’ll miss you too, Dean,” she
whispered. After he was gone she
realized that she would miss him—
would miss all the thoughtful solici

Gilthorp suddenly felt a whim

a lengthy discussion about the radio
field. Under the encouragement of
Gilthrop’s suave interest. David be
gan to expand. He told of his mus
ical composings, of his efforts, his
hopes, and his dreams for the future
Gilthorp politely referred to David’s
“hit” song.
“It had a vogue — but not for
long,” David lamented. “With the
radio, a popular song is old after
two weeks because every one sings
it to death. That’s what happened
to mine. All the profits were used
up long ago. Perhaps if I had saved
some of the money, I wouldn’t have
to be borrowing so much from you
now . . I’d have a little of my own.’
'Gilthorp found himself liking Da
vid and the quality of his enthusiasm
When he spoke of music, his whole
personality seemed to 'glow with a
strange zeal. Gilthorp began to see
more clearly why Andrea cared for
David so intensely. After David had
been ushered out, Gilthorp sat mus
ing.
“This man is my rival. I, should
hate him,” he thought with slight
amusement. “Instead, I have a
plan.” He tapped ashes from his
cigarette reflectively.
“It must be an interesting experi
ment,” he ruminated to himself.

CHAPTER NX
Dean Gilthrop had done
philanthropic acts in his life,
written many generous checks for
charity, but for the first time he
was planning a truly altruistic move.
After he had loaned the money to
David, he sat in a brown study. He
knew now without doubt that An
drea was in love with David—hope
lessly, irrevocably in love with him.
Knowing her personal integrity, he
felt she would never change. He rea
soned to himself that if he deliber-
atly built up David and made it pos
sible for him to become financially
established, one of two things might
happen — Andrea might be able
to marry David, or Eloise might ac-
■cept him. He was willing to leave
the ultimate outcome in the lap of
the gods.
All morning he busied himself
with a series of conferences behind
closed doors, and by noon of that
day he found himself “angeling” a
musical comedy, with David com
missioned to write! the score and
take the leading part. Gilthorp had
cautioned his colleagues in the en
terprise that David was not to know
of his part in the transaction.
Gilthorp’s intermediaries lost no
time in contacting 'David and in
making the proposition to him. Da
vid, jubilant, accepted the commis
sion and the money which they as
sured him was the customary ad
vance given in such deals.. Cheered

That night David also told Andrea
and the family of his new good for
tune. As she watched David’s ex
uberance,, Andrea secretly marvelled
at the transformation in him. Her
own dreams of him were coming
true, her own unfaltering faith in
him was being vindicated. Her lips
smiled, but there was a faint sigh
in her heart as he went on giving
joyous details of his new work.
“I knew you would make good,
David,” she said, her smile tremu
lous. “We’re all so proud of you—
and happy with you, too.”
“You can claim a share of the cre
dit, Andrea,”

into the dining room.
‘I have a secret to show you,”
Sandy whispered mysteriously, as
he flicked on the lights, “All these
months that I’ve been out of work
haven’t been wasted. It gave me
time to work on an invention for
television, Dave. They told me in
Washington today that it looks as
if I really have something here.”
Sandy pulled a long sheaf of pa
pers from his pocket and began an
intricate and technical explanation
of his patent. David listened with
half interest to the long recital,
slightly impatient that Sandy should
hold him up wuen he wanted to be
on his way.
“It sounds good,” David comment
ed, doubtfully dubious.
“I thought being familiar with
radio you might help me get a back
er,” Sandy continued with anima
tion.
“Sure. 1'11 be glad io help you all
I can. Lend me one of these de
scriptions of your patent and I’ll
talk it over with some of our engin
eers.”
As the two men returned to the
living room, Gilthorp was being ush
ered in by Andrea, who was breath
lessly telling him of the new mu
sical show and David’s part in it.
He extended his hand cordially to
David.
‘Congratulations — and all suc
cess,” Gilthorp said, revealing no
sign nor inkling that David’s good
fortune was due to his largesse and
generosity. David thanked him with
a new confidence, a new aggressive
ness that he had never known before
“My experiment has already start
ed to work,” 'Gilthorp thought amus
edly.
“Well, I must run along,’’ David
announced importantly. “I’ve got
plenty of work to do.” Andrea es
corted David to the door, patting his
arm affectionately. Gilthorp’s spirit
sagged as he noticed the gesture. He
would give half his fortune if An
drea only would look at him like
that—her lovely face animated—her
whole soul shining in her eyes.
Gilthorp’s Good-by
When she returned to the room,
his manner toward her was imper
sonal and quietly reserved. “I am
sailing for Europe in two days,” he
said. “This is probably the last
chance I'll have to see you, Andrea.
Be a good girl and don’t work too
hard while I’m gone. And by the
way, why don't you take a month
off this summer and rest? You look
dog tired.”
"No, Dean, not this year. I’m
going to put this business over if
it’s the last thin'g I do.”
“If you keep on working so hard,
it may be your last act,”
warned, his eyes absorbing
grily. He wouldn’t see
three months. As he was

held it.
“If anything goes wrong at the

off-hand, casual. “Don’t forget that
I love you. I’m going to miss you,

He knew now the full story of her

parked near a bower of lilacs, their
fragrance heavy on the night air.
“An ideal setting for romance and

gently around her. “Don’t you think
this would be a good night to

“Why don’t you wait until

that she might marry David if noth

sweetness increases with age, while
the fibre content remains about the

the choice is with the bride, using
her own initials; never those of
her husband. Silver and linens may
be marked with the monogram of
the bride’s maiden name or the
monogram or initial of her married name. When the hope chest
first originated in the northern
countries of Europe the girls, when
.very young, began to weave and
embroider the linens for their future home. Naturally, they did not (know whom they were going to
! marry and so they used their own
initials. This established the con
ventional rule to use the mono
gram of the maiden name. But modern brides-to-be do not go to the expense of buying linens until
. they are engaged and therefore
find it more practical to mark their household things With the initial of the now name they will assume— ;

PERSONALITY
“It’s a wonderful thing — this
thing that we call ‘personality’ —
which includes your appearance,
your manners, your voice, your con
versation, everything jibout you that
impresses you on those with whom
you come in contact as an individual
different from every other person
in the world.
“You do not have to be beautiful
to have a charming personality. You
do not need to be wonderfully clever
but you have to be careful, courteous
clean, well-informed, ready always
to be at your best and to give people
your best. Personality has paved
the way to fortunes.”
