the messenger boy, lifted his brows at the eight.

"They'ro from Mr. Mackenzie,” Monica stammered, rather at a loss before Charles' quizzical glance. Why was It Intely that he had seemed so strange, almost cool to her? He was always nice to Kay, chaffing hor in pleasant, brotherly fashion. With Monnie ho seemed formal, almost distant, in his man- nér,

"Did you want-Kay's working late to-night," Mennic went on, still rather at a loss..

"I knew that." Charles Inld his stick on the hall table and Monnle saw that he was in evoning clothes. "I'm going on to the Willard's for. dinner. They're giving a dance for Ellen."

So that was it, Monnie thought. Ellen Willard, the daughter of the new family who had taken the Law- rence's house, was a beauty as well as brilliant intellectually. She and Charlca would be certain to hit it off well.

"I'm wishing you all happy Chrlatmas." Charles told her for- mally. He weighed his stick in his hand, giving the mammoth florist's box another quizzical glance.

"I knew Mackenzie in Monte Carlo," he said irrelevantly. "Nice fellow-very."

"Oh, he is," Monnie sald with on- thusiasm. And then felt rather

Her mother came in just then and the conversation took an easier trond, became general. Monnie had drended Christmas this year but somehow the spell of the old, familiar things, the scent of pine, the holly wreaths in all the wind- ows, the children singing carols, took hold of her. She reproached herself for the pleasure she felt in [it. Why, it must be wrong! Dan was gone. There was no Christ- mas for him this year. How could she go on without him, how find any pleasure in the season?

Perhaps that was what Charles meant when he looked at her so
