oi nuroio Lovely Fanchon Meredith is wanted by the San Francisco police in connection with a murder committed by her sweetheart “Tony.” Fanchon did not know he was a gunman. She escapes by airplane under the name of “Smith.” Aboard is Evelyn Howard, whom Fanchon met on a voyage from Hawaii. Evelyn is going to New York to live with her aunt, the wealthy Mrs. Carstairs, whom she never saw. The plane crashes and F'anchon is the only survivor. To get away from Tony and the past, she goes to the Carstairs home as “Evelyn.” A strong bond of affection grows between Mrs. Carstairs and her “niece.* Collin Carstairs is at first antagonistic because of his “cousin's" Hawaiian escapades and her self-righteous attitude because of his “cousin's" Hawaiian escapades and her self-righteous attitude when his mother offered aid, but Fanchon’s sincerity overcame his objections. They fall in love. After a happy summer at Southampton, Fanchon makes her debut in New York. Collin, though realizing their relationship is a barrier, cannot resist professing his love. Fanchon cannot acknowledge hers without revealing her identity. A few days later, a threatening note comes from Tony. She visits him. CHAPTER XVIII The neighborhood had once been very good, the street was in a backwater, a small, blind street. It was run down now. the very trees, growing forlornly from the asphalt, had a neglected and pathetic appearance. Children played mildly enough, in the gutter. Women went by. market baskets on their arms. Some were slatternly, some were neat and self-respecting in appearance. Before one house a very fine, expensive car stood, a chauffeur waiting. As Fanchon hesitated an elderly woman, wrapped in an ancient mink coat, came down the steps of the house. Evidently she had always lived in the neighborhood and nothing would make her move away, not even the gradual degradation and decay. Slowly Fanchon went up the brownstone steps. They crumbled a little. The handrail of stone was worn. Shabby, dusty Brussels lace curtains hung at the front windows. She did not know what she would say. She could not know. Her mind was almost blank but of her courage she was certain. Tony—had loved her. Perhaps, still loved her. - Possibly within his love for her she might find some core of understanding for her position, some excuse for what she had done. Yet on the other hand, that very understanding and that same love might constitute for her the greatest menace of all. I She put out her slender gloved I hand and rang the old-fashioned bell. Tony opened to her. He had been waiting, hidden behind one of those I limn curtains. “Tony—” she said, on a small ! breath. Looking at him, she remembered I how much, how unthinkingly she had cared. Looking at him with the eyes which had looked upon Collin to love him, irrevocably and forever, she felt no stirring of the senses, simply a strange constriction of ahe heart, in pity for Tony, in pity and compassion for all that had been between them, in pity for the girl ! she had once been. I He said, evenly: ; “You came. Good. We have I much to talk about.” He took her : wrist and drew her gently but reI Icntlessly into the house. “Come.” ' he said, with a flash of his white | teeth, “into this—parlor. We shall | be undisturbed. Quite alone.” She followed him. The room was long, it was dark, there were velour averdrapes. On the papered, peeling walls were Victorian era prints, once very gray, now rather dismal look-

Beneath it was a gas log. not lighted. In one corner, a whatnot, loaded with dusty china knicknacks; in the other, a really lovely secretary . . . a bead curtain divided the room from another room. There was a small square piano, a scarf thrown over it. There were modern student lamps and one oil lamp, in red glass. There was a Rodgers group and a ladder backed chair and a Morris chair and two pieces of Mission furniture. It was a hodge podge of generations, all of them dusty. It had a strange odor, that room, dust, decay, disinfectant, cabbage boiling and genteel poverty ... It was incredibly depressing. Tony put his arms around her. “You are lovelier than ever,” he said softly. There was no shock to her senses in his nearness. Her senses remembered dimly. But love, which had glowed through them was gone. That she experienced no revulsion was merely habit. Her senses might remember but her heart did not; nor yet her mind. She drew herself away, gently. "Please. Tony,” she said. He placed a chair for her; sat down himself on an Empire sofa, battered, the upholstery threadbare. He slated, gravely, "You no longer care for me?” He had explained nothing, as yet. 1 But it was all easier than she had ' expected. She said, honestly, ■ openly, ■No, Tony.” He spoke without accent. But his ■ gesture was South European. A ■ hand tiling, palm up. a shrug of the ■ broad shoulders under the well fit- ’ ting coat. j “I see. I had expected it.

tle while—” She hesitated and stopped and was amazed to find tears in her eyes. He finished her sentence for her. "For a little \ hile—wc were happy. I see. I w uid have told you—before. But I was afraid. You see,” he smiled -uefully, rather charmingly, “you sc :, I was in love with you, Fanchor. She started a '.ttle at the use of her name. S*-., had not heard it for so long. Tony’s keen black eyes narrowed. He went on smoothly. “And I wanted to marry you. But I was afraid to tell you . . , So I planned instead to make my pile, to turn my last trick, to marry you then and take you away somewhere and go straight in some place where we could live happily and no one would ever be the wiser, least of a 1 ! you. But, I didn’t turn the trick,” he said. “No.” She looked at him. His even pallor, that of olive skin, was perceptible. He had grown a little heavier. He looked a little gross. He was no longer clean shaven and wore a small mustache. Yet there was a certain lean hunger in his eyes. His eyes looked sleepless. She began to be afraid. She shook the fear from her. “Tony, I have brought you your money—all of it,” she said , •• . and handed him the envelope. He took it from her. He did not open it. He held it in his hand and regarded it. His face was expressionless. Presently, he put it in a inside pocket. “You do not need it?" he asked with a most extraordinary formal courtesy—extraordinary under the circumstances. She shook her head. “Very well, then. I do. Rut it will not be enough. I must have more, much more besides. Not for myself alone. But for you also. So that we can both go away and start all over again . . . and you must help me.” Copyright 19.11 By Faith Baldwin Distributed by Kin» Feature* Syndicate. Ine.
