"That's Just too bad." He pulled
-1 her over to the cab and thrust her
in. “Next time stay where you be-
long!"
Jeanie landed on the seat with
some force. She glared at him vin-
dictively.
"You—you-!" Her voice shook
with tears and rage.
As the taxi started, a shot and a
scream rang out/ and Brian ran
acting the way he did Well, he
probably wouldn't care what she
did with herself But whether he
did or not—she'd show him' Bhs'd
take his advice and "make a good
thing out of 1L" She stood btCqre a
full length mirt-or. scrutinising her-
self Carefully.
After the show .that night. Jeanie.
In line with her liew policy, allowed
herself to be persuaded to have sup-
per with Val French. It is doubtful
whether Jeanie. had she known
something* of his character, would
have accepted so recklessly. *.. '
Val French was the eort fre-
quently found at the playlands of
the world. He was parasitical to
the finest degree, using the numer-
ous rich and beautiful women who
fell prey to his charms for all the
benefit he could derive from them.
And he had done the same thing
with Fern Cavan, recently deposed
leading lady of Jeanle's show. After
draining her of nearly all her re-
sources, he had dropped her lm«,
mediately after she left the show
and discovered to her horror that
the producer could get along very
well without her.
But with Jeanie It was different.
As soon as he saw her, the opening
night, he felt that he must possess
her. Slightly wearying of being
pampered by women older than!
himself, he had decided that the un-'
deniable Innocence of Jeanie would
prove refreshing. And the more
she rebuffed him. the more eager
he had been to conquer her. The
spirit of the chase, something new
to one who was used to being
chased Instead of chasing, intoxi-
cated him. He had inveigled money
from all of the rieh women to whom

Jeanie was miserable and bewil-
dered on the drive home. The tears
kept struggling to come to the sur-
face and she* fought them down des-
perately, FT she did not wish the eab
driver to witness her unhappiness.
When shr arrived at the boarding
house she ran upstairs to her room
and let the tears roll unrestrained
down her cheek. She felt slightly
better after a half an hour of this,
but she was still In a rage. And
her subsequent course of action was
very clear to her. She seated her-
self at th* vanity table and brushed
her hair furiously, banging the
brush on the-floor when she fin-
ished- Someone rapped on the do6r.
“Who Is it?" she called sullenly.
"Me—Brian”
"What do you want?" she asked,
resentfully, without opening the
door. .
"J want to warn you that the next
time you do a darn-fool thing like
that I'll knock youf block oft!"
“Don't bother—you won't have to."
"You bet I won't have to!" he re-
torted angrily, "because I won’t have
you buttin' In on my Job! Besides,
there was shootln'!" You might
have been killed!"
He stood back as Jeanie, quiver-
ing with rage, flung the door open
auddenly.
“I. might have been killed comes

ously. “That's what yOu think of
ms. Somebody that's gsttlng In your

up a stray dog, feed It and kick It
out!”
"1 never kicked you out." protest-

at him defiantly. “Well, cheer up,

took some money out of her bag,
and thrust It Into his hand. “Here,
take your darn dough. Now we’re
quits—washed up! I'm off your trail
from now on! fll take that wonder-
ful advice you gave me! I'll move
out of here and you'll never have to

hands again. "Give me a break."
He paused. "What're you going to
do with yourself?”
"Keep on working." she retorted,
after a moment as she withdrew
her hands.
‘But when the ehow closes?” he
persisted.
'Get some other Job," she an-
swered. a trifle listlessly.
“With your good-looks? Why?”
Val was hitting his stride. "You
don't have to."
"I’ve got to live."
"You're darn tootin'!” he agreed
enthuelaetlcally. "And welt, too!"
He recaptured her hands. "Other

Jeanie looked up at him Soberly.'
He smiled and walked around the
table to her side. He bent over
her, talking low and fast.
"I can make you happy—the way
you should be."
"Maybe that's the way I should
have been long ago." she sajd
slowly *,
Val was encouraged. "Is there
another guy?"
"There's no other guy," she an-

He grew bolder. “I'm nuts about
you." he told her, kissing her hands.
“We'll travel—we’ll go away—well

got Is yours! Say 'yes.' Jeanie!f'
She spoke clearly, and so abruptly
that Val was startled. "Why not?"
"You're young,” he breathed.
"You're beautiful-—you* .got a guy

her suddenly, and kissed her pas-
sionately. Jeanie didn't resist. "All
