CHAPTER XXXIV “Say, listen,” Howard protested. “You and Mother got me into this marriage. I made the best of it. did all I could to make Gwen happy. Oh. yes, I know we quarreled, but I didn't want it to end like this. She's sick of the way Mother's friends have treated her. I tried to keep her sweet about it, but after this Freddy came along. . . “Freddy! Freddy who?” his father exploded. “You wouldn’t know, but she’s going to marry him.” “Marry him! You can sit there and say that your wife is going to marry somebody else!” “Well, don’t have apoplexy, Dad. I’m as cut up about it as you are. I know what Hoffmann will say. But Gwen left me. He can’t deny that And she isn’t going to lay it on me unless I give her away. That let’s us out” Mr Dunsworth calmed a trifle. “So you got it all set? Why did you come in here acting like a hypocrite?” Howard showed signs of a just anger. “Hypocrite! Maybe you think I enjoyed coming in here and telling you this- And if Gwen's dad should think as you did. that I'm to blame. . .“ “If he should,” Henry broke in. banging a fist down upon the papers before him, “. . . it will smash us to bits!” “As bad as that?” Howard ejaculated. “As bad as that and worse,” his father snapped. “You'd better let me see him first —you don't look so doggone sad. If you and Gwen haven’t made this up between you I’m blind—but you’re right to worry about Hoffmann —if he thought you’d given his daughter cause to leave you he’d withdraw every penny of his support from the factory- An d I'm counting on him to meet the notes that fall due next month. Don’t you dare let him see you until this thing is settled. You wouldn’t fool an owl at noon in the middle of the Sahara Desert.” “Suits me,” Howard agreed, “but wait until he’s heard from Gwen. She promised to write and spill the news. So far as I know she’s just away on a little trip—presumably to New York." “What will you do about the cottage?” "I'll stay there until it’s known where Gwen is, then I’ll drag myself back to you and Mother." “I ought to throw you into the street,’ his father remarked. “Well,” Howard grinned, “I don't want to blackmail my own dad, but if you take that attitude what’s to prevent me from coming right out and telling old man Hoffmann precisely what I think of his daughter? And don’t forget this—if it hadn’t been for you I’d have left her You don't kiww what I've been through trying to keep you safe from Hoffmann.” “Very noble of you,” Henry mocked, “but I guess you know on which side your bread is buttered.” “I ought to,” Howard answered shortly; “you’ve told me often enough.” “Well, see that you don’t forget it. Try to look as though this thing was a alow to you. And keep out of sight.” “Suppose I take a vacation for a few days, then I won't be running into Hoffmann when he drops in here.” “Good idea. I’ll say you’ve gone hunting. Er ... by the way. Howard. just where do you go when you go hunting?” A look of concern flashed across Howard’s features, but he answered smoothly: “Hunting.” His father eyed him keenly. “See that you don’t bag any illegal game,” he said knowingly. “Trouble right now—and I’d wring your neck.” “I’m no fool,” Howard assured him. “I tell you Gw-en left me for another man. If Hoffmann knew that, he’d disown her, no matter what she said about me. But if he thinks we just had a common quarrel he’ll be waiting for us to patch it up." “But when she marries this Freddy person—what then?" i

“The fat will b# in the fire, of course. I imagine she believes she i can win his forgiveness. In the j meantime you can get out from under.” i “Get out from under! You poor 1 fool. I'm sinking deeper every day. 1 The only hope I’ve got is to sell to ■ Purcell.” “Purcell?” “They want the mask. It’s what 1 this factory is built on. They’ll have to buy us out, lock stock and barrel, to get it.” “Why don't you sell, then, if they’ll buy?” “Because they know we're losing money. If we can hang on until business is better they’ll have to meet our terms. We can do it if Hoffmann sticks.” Howard whistled. “You are in a jam!” he exclaimed. “Yes, thanks to your trouble with Gwen. If I thought you were to blame. I’d . . "Skin me alive. I suppose." Howard finished for him. "But you don’t think it because you know Gwen. Mother’s wished, if you don’t, that I’d never married her. She’s just a common little . . . well, never mind. That crowd she played around with was nothing to brag about—and Hoffmann knows it Whatever I’ve done it’s a rale pink in comparison to the way she's behaved. One thing I can say 1 haven’t been unfaithful to her.” “You’re not implying that G»’en. . . .” “I wouldn’t doubt it” A lock of disgust swept over Dunsworth's face. “Get out of here," he said angrily. “1 don’t believe it but if you did you’re a damned rotter to have stood for it.” “That’s a swell line from you,” Howard retorted. “You knew what a mess I was m and you were scared sick that I’d bolt it A lot you cared about mo. I've been just a puppet to you. But . . abruptly he ceased speaking. His father’s secretary had opened the office door and announced Mr. Hoffmann. Henry Dunsworth nodded toward a door that opened on a hall. “Out that way.” he said to Howard, and the young man hastily disappeared. He w ent straight to Caroline. Except for the fear that Mr. Hoffmann would learn the truth about his trouble with Gwendolyn he was feeling in fine fettle. His father was straightened out—as he put it to himself—and Gwen was silenced by her own interests. Philip Rutledge wouldn’t stand in his way long, the old boy was slipping fast; soon even Caroline must give up the idea that he would ever become rehabilitated. That would weaken her morale, make her readier to lean on him. She might balk a little at a secret marriage, but he felt he could induce her to listen to reason. And when his father had sold the factory and was clear of his obligation to Hoffmann —why then he’d feel him out to see if there was a chance that he would accent Caroline as a daughter-in-law. With her father hitting the bottom he might be stirred to a little leniency. At the Rutledge house he was admitted by the housekeeper whom he had engaged over Caroline's protest. “Good morning. Mrs. Stevenson.” he said brightly, “am I too early to see Miss Rutledge?” The woman beamed at him. Howard had paid her generously. “Oh no sir. I'll see, sir. She's an early riser, the young lady. Was up and dressed when I took her breakfast to her. I’ll tell her you're here, sir.” “Just a moment,” Howard detained her. “I want to explain to you. Mrs. Stevenson, that Miss Rutledge may not wish to keep you on. “Y’es, I know, sir," the woman answered, “she told nie herself. I’m not to be staying after this week, but beggin’ your pardon, sir, it isn’t a house the like of which I’m accustomed to.” “Aren’t you comfortable?” Howard inquired. The woman hesitated, then: “Not as I’d like to be, sir, meaning no disrespect to the family, but you see. sir. having i sleep in the dead lady's bed. , . .” Her voice drifted off in a vague distress. “Mrs. Rutledge did not die here,” I Howard said sharply. “However. 11

will speah to Miss Rutledge about another room for you.” "There's no other room, sir, 'cepting I change with the young lady or the master." “Well, whatever is convenient will be arranged," Howard promised. “I want you to distinctly understand, Mrs. Stevenson, that I wish you to remain. And I shall expect to pay you for your services considerably above what you might receive elsewhere, You understand. I am acting in the capacity of an old friend who is deeply interested in Miss Rutledge's welfare, and I should prefer that you do not discuss with her any arrangement made between you and me. I shall speak to her about keeping you on.” “Very good, sir, thank you, sir,' The housekeeper turned away. She had come from a first class agency and was somewhat shocked to be employed on Edge Street, but she had been out of work for some time and things had not gone smoothly in the home of her daughter-in-law where she had been living. And she liked Howard, felt inclined to please I him. Howard stood at the foot of the stairs, waiting for Caroline to come i down to him. He hoped she had not overheard his talk with Mrs. Steven- , son—outrageous lack of privacy | here! Caroline came to the upper hall rail and leaned over. Howard forgot his distaste for her surroundings. He never saw her after being apart from her without experiencing a gripping sensation of sheer ecstasy. Her white face and shadowed eyes, the frail delicacy of her body, her beautiful hair, all quickened a response in Kim that was like the ■ reaction of a satisfied craving for some strange drug. He had found this out —that she was the only woman who could stir him so—when he had left her for those wasted months in the spring and summer. His marriage to Gwendolyn had only served to intensify his appreciation of Caroline, an appreciation purely of the senses, holding the element of a gourmet’s taste for fine viands. He had not truly suffered whan they quarreled, he and Caroline; he had, in fact, rather fancied himself in the role of celibate, been not a little proud of his immunity from other women’s charms. His life with Gwendolyn had wrought a change in him. As he had turned from her with an almost violent dislike for her type to him she was coarse and as transparent as a window-pane—he had realized the significance of Caroline’s attraction for him. When her illness had given him an excuse for doing so he bad come back to her. fearful that she might have put him out of her life for good. Her reception of him had restored his confidence, and fired his determination to r-ttempt to win her back. His decision had been utterly without spiritual luster, but he had never lost sight of the fact that the very fineness in Caroline which drew him to her was the rare refulgence of her character. Strange attraction for that which he knew he did not possess. He was relieved to be bringing her good news. “Come down.” he called to her cheerily, forgetting her bereavement. She did not speak, but she came quickly to his arms, and he saw then that she had been weeping. "I’m sorry, dear." he said contritely. Caroline clung to him. “I’ve been in Mother’s room,” she sobbed, “Oh Howard, she had so few of her things left—the things she prized so—nothing but some trinkets she couldn't sell! And she never asked me for even my Currier and Ives, It breaks my heart to think of what it cost her to part with the things she loved." “You’re doing her an injustice to grieve like this,” Howard told her. “Would you want the sacrifices you’ve made to be a reproach to those you love?” “No . . .” Caroline said, lifting her head, “Mother wouldn’t like it, either. I’ll try to be right about it. You’ve come to tel! me something important, haven’t you?” sb# added I bravely. “Yes.” (To Be Continued) OpTrirht bv Ruth Dewey Grove* Dlrtrlbufed by King Featurwa Svnrtlptte Ina,
