Western Newspaper Union) Rlioda sal listening ns Mrs. Hamil ton talked, nnd rebellion rirose within her. Was It for this, the visit had been urged upon her? That sho might be led into a marriage with the ex acting son of her mother's dearest friend. John Hamilton's virtues hnd been sung lito Rhmlu's ears as long as she could remember: John Hamil ton, the spoiled nnd adored of his mother. Rlioda, In her country home had anticipated long this sny In the city. She hnd thought then only of the companionship of her mother's girlhood friend, and of tho Joyful glimpses Into a big world, which sho might give her. Then. "Aunt Cyn thia," as the girl had been taught to call her hostess spoiled it all. "I am going to he perfectly frank, Rhoda,"she said. "To have my friend's daughter for my own daughter-in-law, Is tho secret wish of my heart. Cynthia Hamilton regarded hei guest perplexedly. "It cannot be possible," Mrs. Ham ilton was asking, "that you aro al ready promised to another, Rlioda? But," she quickly ndded, "your moth er would have told me of your en gagement." "Not exactly engaged, Aunt Cyn thia," she calmly replied, "but there Is n man whom I intend to marry the man who has my heart." Which will bo true, Rhoda told her conscience, when the time comes. "Your mother made no reference to a possible ndmirer," Aunt Cynthia said sharply. "I don't think," Rhoda replied, "that mother knows him." "Not," Aunt Cynthia reproached "a clandestine affair I" Rhoda shook her head. "ITo doesn't live In our town," she explained confusedly. Mrs. Hamilton sighed In relief and smiled. "We all have those fancies, my dear," she snld indulgently. "When I see this lover I will consider you seriously. For the present let us drop the subject. I Irivo an errand for you to do. Would you mind going down town? You can ride directly to the store door. I have some buttons to be mntched. brown buttons, for my new suit. The tnllor must have them tonight. Rlioda seized upon this escape, but when she stood In the nlslo of the great department store n snmple but ton In the palm of her gloved hand, Rliodn's cheeks were still Hushed from her (Micounter, ' and two dimples popped out in her cheeks. "Ithcdn Blair." she said mentally, "that was an awful position to put yourself into. Engaged nlmost nnd not 11 man on your horizon." Just then Rhoda, dimples nnd all, bumped Into 11 man who sent the brown button rolling down the tloor. The young man nimbly pursuing thu button brought It back with n bow to It's owner. And Rhoda perceiving him to he hatless. took tin- nice young tnan to be n floor usher nnd asked to he directed to the "button depart ment." With a stare and n quick, pleas ing smile, the young man offered to escort her there and with a protect ing arm against the shopping throng led the way to rfn elevator. As a store usher, however, he was strange ly remiss, for ns the two Issued through a labyrinth of ways, no but ton depnrlment was In evidence. It wns necessary for tho obliging young man again to seek the elevator nnd a search of tin doors below. Ills gaze, as ho did so. was admiringly, though politely bent upon Rhoda's pretty face. And when at last the button de partment wns found the particularly desired button, wns not among Its number; the nice young man promptly offered to have It hunted out In stock, and delivered surely, that evening. It was with evident regret that he bowed his fair customer through tho door way, while Rhoda riding hack to Aunt Cynthia's, experienced a pleasing sense of coming adventure. The ad venture nrrlved that evening. An ex ceedingly nice looking young man, ushered by the mnld Into the presence of John Hamilton and his mother, asked, Hushing boyishly, .to see "Miss Blnlr." While Rhoda, entering nt that moment, wns in time for Mrs. Hamilton's repronchful remark. "You did not tell me," she snld, "that the friend of whom you spoke lived In our city." Impulsively, though perplexedly, the friend' himself, saved Rhoda reply. "I am Jack Warren of Warren & Son's department store." he said, "per mit me to Introduce myself." John Hamilton arising, bowed testily and left the room, while his mother with an astonished murmured re sponse quickly followed. ','1 came," the nice mnn told Rhoda "to bring those buttons : My own de livery. Thought, when your folks knew who I was, L'jat they'd let me stay awhile with you. But, my pres ence seems unwelcome, so "N'ot your peosenro," Rhoda hasten ed to explain. She paused. "I guess I had hotter tell you all about It," shr said desperately, and sho did. Jack Wxrren listened, his pleasing smile broke forth. "I'd love to play up to that 'almost' fiance of 'yours while you are here.' he said. Then eagerly his eyes betd Or girl's. "Afterward," he added durlngl), "i am goin; xi d my lic-t to trv tn onll1'.
