watched her round-eyed, not
quite understanding.
“But you were happy with
him. We were all happy!”
“Darling! Os course! Our lit
tle family picnic in the funny
apartment we all three had to
gether. But that was just a silly
adventure for all of us. I felt
sorry for poor, lonely Jim, arid
so I kept house, and mothered
you both—”
Vai stared. She couldn’t un
derstand it.
Glimpses of Past
“And when I couldn’t stand
It any longer—really couldn’t
afford it any longer, for Jim
hardly kept up his end, and I
had you to think of, and my
own life to live, why naturally
I had to tell him, and so I
sent you to Julia... she HAS
been good to you, dear?”
“Os course.”
“Yes, I knew she would. That
was another thing. I felt you
would have more of a home
with her than you could with
me. My life has been so strange
and ruffled. My dear, being a
night club hostess, glamorous
as it may seem ”
“It doesn't seem glamorous.
I can’t imagine you doing it!”
Millie stared at her daugh
ter. Then she laughed. “No?
Kiss me! You’re the same con
trary little thing you always
were. Never mind, it doesn’t
matter. I don’t do it any more.
I’m just a homebody now!”
Vai said, “I don’t know any
thing about what you did all
these years. Aunt Julia never
said anything, and I ”
“She didn’t? She never told
you anything about me?”
“No. Millie, where were you
a night club hostess?”
“You funny child! Oh—dif
ferent places. A woman alone
. . . Valentine, you must never
be alone, do you hear me? I
want you to marry.”
Vincent Praised
“I am! I’m going to marry
Joe! I told you about Joe.
Joe’s—”
“Yes, dear. I know. I want
you to marry, darling, and be
very careful about the people
you meet. A girl can’t be too
careful. You’ll meet some
wonderful men here. The
girls . . . well, I’ll talk about
the girls some other time.
“The girls aren’t just what
I . . . what I’d like if I were

to be perfectly frank, Why we
really don’t go out in society
on account of Vincent’s wife,
but we have some lovely times,
dear. You’ll be happy with us.
That is just what I always
wanted ... my lovely new
home ... my dear Vincent,
and you!”
Vai felt uncomfortable, more
and more uncomfortable. “Vin-

been talking to him?
Ipso—What are you growling
about? While you haven’t got
a job you get food and lodging
from charity.
Facto—But I’ve been out of
work so long I’m afraid I’ll lose
all desire to go on a strike.

cent’s awful nice,” she said,
just to be saying something.
“Now, THERE you show
your judgment. Vincent, dar
ling, is a wonderful man. He
will be very sweet to you.
Very generous. You’ll see.
He’ll buy out the town for
you.”
But I—l couldn’t possibly let

Schley—Yes, one of them
married me.—The Pathfinder.
Iddings—You say Dundreary

Kiddings—Yes, the boss told
him there was no market for
his castles in the air.
Luevita —I just accepted Heart

Ariana—Well, when I refused

happened to him.

They’re bill collectors.”

him. Why should he? I’d feel
very funny. I’d much rather
not, Millie—really—”
“You Are Lovely”
"Now, darling, you must let
him leave his fun. He’s been
looking forward to this. You
see, he has a daughter and she
. . . No, I don’t think I CAN
describe her. But I must! Well,
she is an intellectual, like her
mother, and she wears man
nish clothes and flat heels, and
her hair is pink—not red, pink,
and she’s built like a feather pil
low except that she has arms
and legs like a gorilla, and she
snubs Vincent, the poor sweet,
because he doesn’t know what
she’s talking about and I give
you my word, nobody could!
So you’re just what he always
dreamed of—just what my
daughter WOULD be, he said.
You ARE lovely, Vai, dear! And
of course it will be fun for him
to dress you up and give you
things which he never could
give to his Cornelia . . . Cor
nelia! The name is really
enough, now, isn’t it?”
“I think it’s sort of pretty—
the name I mean.”
“Do you, darling? Well, per
haps! But she isn’t, and you

are. Kiss me good-night. I
must go. You will be comfort
able here? Don’t you love the
room? It’s real Spanish. Not
a false note. The entire house,
my dear, is Spanish. Not a
thing in it that isn’t, except
some Mexican glass, and I did
get one or two pieces of Italian
pottery by mistake, and then I
kept them anyway, though I
may get rid of them. There
isn’t a place in Santa Barbara,
even the millionaires’ homes,
that is a bit more authentic.”
Vai looked around the room
after Millie had gone. Millie
in an autheutic Spanish house
. . . saying that she just felt
sorry for Jim . . . used to
mother her and Jim . . . and
Jim’s wife . . . nobody ever
said anything about that be
fore.
"Oh, I wish she hadn’t told
me!”
Vai pressed her cold hands
over her tired eyes. Sat on one
of the authentic Spanish beds,
lost in troubled thought.
What would Aunt Julia say to
all this?
And. oh dear, how long did
she have to stay?
