Mrs. Kennedy herself was a tall, thin woman with a pensive, somewhat peevish face. Her mental attitude toward most people and things was one of censure; even the things she approved of,such as country life and young children, speedily bored her. Rhe was really clever, but less so than her enemies feared. If she had been a worse woman, one less rigidâ€" ly conscientious, she might have written good novels. As it was she could never quite escape from the standâ€"point of her class and creed. When she wrote she was always dodging the reflection that such and such things were in bad taste, Or that Mrs. Alexander Van Stoeckel, when she read certain sentences, might be pained and hurt. Therefore her books were ag flat and feature |lees as the lawns on the country place ofa newly enriched millionaire. They had a certain sale, neverthe {less, among her friends (who hoped {to find in them playfully malicious ‘descriptions of people they knew) and also among those who are curiâ€" ous to hear of the details of fashionâ€" ‘able life from some one who, sup ! posedly, knows. ! _ "You know it is not exactly a social cecretary that I want," she said. "I am sure when it comes to making lists, and writing invitations, and all that sort of thing, you would be perâ€" fection. You know New York very well, don‘t you? Miss Lawrence said | you were a friend of hers." "I‘m afraid I don‘t even do that," sald Marah, ruefully. She had not before realised the many qualifica tions necessary to being a eecretary. un appointment. This lady was known to the newspapere as a "Boâ€" clety authoress." Her books were reviewed under headings such as "The Muse in Philistia," or "Litera ture the New Fad of the Smart Set." Her hueband was & rich cotton broker and the darkest cloud that hung over him was the fear of be ing alluded to as Mre. Kennedy‘s husâ€" band. This intimate secret fear he concealed so skilfully that he passed with the world generally as a doting husband, inordinately vain of his wife‘s talonts. ‘The next morning Merah etarted out to see a lady who desired a seoâ€" retary and who, on Miss Lewrence‘s recommendation, had given Marah The Kennedys lived in a scrupuâ€" lously _ eighteenthâ€"century _ French house on East â€" Street, and Mrs. Kennedy received Mam in a small drawingâ€"room whore everything was vastly expensive, authentic, and unâ€" comfortable. Marah found the authoress interâ€" esting. She liked the way the train of her black dress curled around her thing legs when she sat down, and the mannerism she had of screwing together her eyelids when she talked end looking at her hearer from two gieaming black slits. ‘"But those things one can learn in a minute." Mré. Kennedy looked at Marah critically and made up her mind that she would give the heroine, whose entrance into the world of letters she was then effecting, just euch a line of profile. Her manner grew vague and abstracted, though a emile of determined kindness reâ€" mained fixed on her lips. Then, too, when Mre. Kennedy laughed, her pensiveness and her peevishness fell from her like an ugly black vell. She looked innoâ€" cent and childlikeâ€"lovable almostâ€" certainly fascinating. Apparently she took a fancy to Marah, for she kept her a long time, talking a good deal and asking many questions. But in the ond it was clear that Marah‘s services were not what she required, as her secretary must know shorthand and the use of the typewriter. White Lies Marah, felt, with some pride, theat as a companion she had certain enâ€" dowments. Two years with Mrs. Thompson were certainly as good as a certified parchment of patience and selfâ€"controlâ€"but would this be â€"apâ€" parent to the inquirer? She could not tell. The house where she presâ€" ently found herself was an Italian Renaissance palace on upper Fifth Avenue, the most magnificent place into which she had ever penetrated. Ounce within its massive portals she seemed to dwindle and dwindle until she was like a beggar child in the Marah felt that it was time for her to go, â€"which she did, her heart heavy with disappointment, for she would have liked to have worked for Mrs. Kennedy. That day she was too tired to do anything more, but the next morning she started out again, this time to see a lady, also discovered by Miss Lawrence, who wanted a companion. was as overpowering as the granâ€" deur: marble staircses, tapestryâ€"hung rooms, colonuaded halls, dimlyâ€" vistaed conservatories, gilded picture galleries, all were as silent as an empty church. She fallowed an imâ€" mensely tall footman, gleaming with braes buttons, to a room on the secâ€" ond floor. There, too, all was costly, :0 the most inexperienced eye, dark and silent. _ j "Gracious! how dark it is here!" exclaimed this lady, hurriedly pulling up the window blind. ‘Then she raised a emall, jewelled lorgnon and inspected Marah. "You are the young woman Miss Lawrence spoke to me she was like a begfnr child in the realms of a glant Princess. The hush "Mre. Meeker will see you in a few moments, miss," said the serâ€" vant, and left her. Marah sat for a quarter of an hour without moving, her eyes resting on the dim outlines of an antique carved marble retablo, feeling as if she were being chloroâ€" formed. At the end of that time the door opened and a lady rustled in, not tall, sombre, majestic and midâ€" dleâ€"aged as Marah had pictured to herself Mrs. Meeker, but emall, vivaâ€" cious and youthfulâ€"at least with the factitious youth of a Parisian eilâ€" houette, an artfully curled postiche, and a cold cream complexion. of!" "Yes," said Marah. ("I feel like a housemaid looking for a ‘place,‘" she sald to herself, amused. "Ought I to drop a curtsey?") Marah hesitated an instant. Had she or had she not. Certainly she could not ask Cousin Cora for a "reâ€" ference." "I have lived, more or less in that capacity, with a distant reâ€" lative," she said, finally. Mre. Meeker hesitated in her turn. She was from Pittsburg and had not lived in New York very long. She wanted some one to go about with her, to take her in tow as it were. Miss Lawrence she knew was a great "swell", a cousin of Mre. Oliver‘s. She had fancied any one produced by her would be an ex: pienced and fashionable pauperâ€"enâ€" tirely what she needed. This girl was too young, too shy, and not as suming enough, yet at the same time with a kind of dignity before which Mrs. Meeker felt abashed. Decidedly ehe would never do, would never be what Mrs. Meeker thought "good company." But one could not let her go too‘ abruptly. One must talk a little longer to her, find a pretence for not deciding immediately, put her off. She asked a few aimless questions and then said suddenly, "Can you play accompaniments?" She had a highâ€"pitched, inslstent, staccato voice, and talked as If she had not alwys been sure of being listened to respectfully or with atâ€" tention. "On the piano, you mean?" ‘"Yes, of course." ("Did she think I wanted her to play accompaniments on the billiard table!" said Mre. Meeker to herself, with a giggle.) "No," eald Marab, "I am not muâ€" elcal. I‘m very sorry." She felt huâ€" mulltiated _ and _ depressed, . and longed to get away. It would bo alâ€" most as dreadful to live with Mre. Meeker in her dark, slumberous palace as to live with Cousin Core hereelf. "Sit down," said Mrs. Meeker, with imperioys kindness. "How old are you," "Twentyâ€"sixâ€"nearly twenty.@even." "Have you ever been a companion bofore "Oh, yes, I remember Miss Lawâ€" rence said something about it." "Oh, it‘s too bad!" exclaimed Mre. 9n W +A m'- m“l“m ttflm% can accompany. <I fear I would be of no use, then." Sie rose a'vd“tlrud toward the door. "Thank yoy very much for seeing me," she said courteously. . "I‘m sure I thank you for comâ€" ing," said Mre. Meeker, who was warmâ€"hearted and felt, vaguely, that Marah was a lady and poor and unâ€" happy, "you would have euited me exactly, if it hadn‘t been for that muâ€" éic." She rang for a servant to show Marah out, and when she had gone thought what a relief it was to have the interview over. Marah went away trying to feel amused over Mre. Meeker and her house, but it was an unsuccessful efâ€" fort, for her sensitive pride had been wounded. In epite of all her philoâ€" «ophy it hurt her to go from door to door seeking a situation, presenting her talents and capacities in as faâ€" vourable a light as possible, quesâ€" tioned as to her health, disposition, and previous experience. She felt, inâ€" stinctively and against her season, that she had sunk a little in the s0â€" cilal scale, and it was of no consola tion to repeat to herself the stale, beautiful adage that a lady was a lady no matter what she did. Pathetically, like a lost child, she thought <of Waring. Would he be sorry if he knew how unhappy and forlorn she was? The thought of his strength comforted her for a moâ€" ment until she remembered, or forced herself to remember, his inâ€" sincerity, his egotism, and the way he had treated her. It was u.lwag like that when her mind turned Waring, first an impulse of appealing tenderness, a need of him that called out from the depths of her nature, then, immediately, the sense of smouldering resentment which she forced deliberately into a flame of anger. ‘Then, too, she was lonely, not very strong, and entirely unaccustomed to looking out for herself. At home she was one of a community, and with Mre. Thompson she had been so completely dominated by the will and desires of her cousin that she had lost all initiative. After her failure with Mrs. Kenâ€" nedy and Mrs. Meeker, Marah went .0 a Bureau of Social Necessities and obtained a list of people who wanted the services of a companion or seo retary. But with theee she was equally unâ€" successful. Elther she was too young, or too Inexperienced, or she did not look strong enough, or she had not the necessary acquirements. Once she really had strong hopes of getting a situation as a kind of chaperonâ€"companion to a young girl from Minneapolis, whose father was un immensely rich brewer, a widowâ€" er. But just as Marah was on the point of being engaged the young girl eloped . with her father‘s chauffeur, ao that plan fell through. The topic of the evening was "Persia", and those contributing to the study were Stanley Hodgins, Mrs. Harper Schofleld, Mrs. Karl W. Zlegler, Harper Schofleld, Miss Helen MacLean, Clarence Hoffor, Miss Elizabeth Zlegler and Miss Gladys Uffelman. a fool to tak sonally," she went back to of it as a ‘s thing 1 am 100 I went back" The two weeks were passing raâ€" pidly and Marah remembered her promise to her sisters with appreâ€" hension, though the idea of returnâ€" Ing to Mrs. Thompson had less terâ€" rore for her than ‘before her experiâ€" ence of the flat and the Bureau of Social Necessities. She even went so far as to reason with herself: "I was a fool to take Cousin Cora so perâ€" sounally," she thought. "If I ever went back to her I would just think of it as a ‘situation,‘â€"the kind of thing 1 am looking for now." ‘The "If I went back" was Ominous.
