CHAPTER XIX If either Keith or Felicia had insisted on telling Eustace! Instead, they had deceived him, apparently jo blithely. That deceit seemed to overlay witn tarnish all her lifelong affection for her sister, all her iwn love for Keith, the remembrances that she had so cherished jf their moments of closeness. Once she thought wildly: “Pernaps they deceived me, too. Perhaps they always cared about each other, and that’s why Felicia wanted me to marry Gilbert, and why Keith didn’t ever much want to marry me.” That suspicion grew in her... Past Berlin, on the way to Moscow, she and Gilbert were thrown more closely than ever before into each other’s physical presence. By the accident of the time of year, and the approaching May Day celebrations in Russia, transportation was I almost impossible to get, Thgy were obliged to share a compartment all the night across East Prussia, all the day after, across the long stretches of the plains of Poland. Gilbert took as much pains as possible to save her from embarrassment at their sudden proximity, but it made her curiously aware of him. In the night listening to his breathing in the berth opposite hers, all through the day sitting facing him, he became more real to her than he had been. Besides, she had the rather usual reaction of a person used to America and the obvious cities of Western Europe on the train journey, that she was going farther and farther from any world she knew. It was all sliding away behind the train wheels. Gilbert was the only connecting link with what had been before. The Russian frontier, reached in darkness, with bright lights shining on the rows of barbed wire and the signs in many languages reading "'Conununism will Abolieh Frontiert, overwhelmed her, made her fee) very small and inconsequential. “Something like looking at the Pyramids,” she told Gilbert “Only intensified, because this is alive, a force continuing." “A force, *ll right," he said. In the ornate, badly lighted compartment of their pre-war railroad carriage, she said solemnly: “I’m i glad you’re here. For no sensibl* reason. I'd be afraid, making thi* journey alone." He just said: “You look much too I young, sometimes, to be traveling anywhere alone.” But his eyes questioned her. She could not answer their ques- i non then, but it disturbed her. How lonely he looked occasionally, how disappointed, for all that he was invariably cheerful! She had taken everything from him that he chose to give her, and gave nim nothing but unilea, and pleasant words I i when she felt in the mood to give j those. I They nad gone about and about, hooking at modern cities and ruins ’of cities, buying things, listening to concerts, seeing plays. What had he got out of it all, except dreariI ness, and a dreadful hurt? She had never thought before that if he loved her as she loved

Held at present under an open charge pending an exhaustive investigation of his wide-ranged dealings in allegedly fraudulent secur ities and stocks. Marr is said by police to have traded his securities in exchange for those of proven value. His clients were described as prominent business men and the ! wealthier class of people in the I towns in which he operated. Garland Twaddle, Goshen, also is being held by authorities who charge he served as a contact man for Mart and introduced his dopper companion to prominent citisens.

Keith, he must have suffered at least as much as she. All their first day in Moscow, Gilbert thought her mood odd—when they were what he called “proper tourists,” went to the Kremlin and admired the gorgeous jewel-collec-tions, and were made a little sad by the empty echoing cathedrals; when they went on a tour of a new suburb, when they visited Lenin in his tomb, looking slightly contemptuous of eternity. She had bright flashes of gayety and moments of being so remote that she did not notice when Gilbert spoke to her. Back at the Metropole, she said: “Let’s dress for dinner, even if nobody else does.” “We’ll be as conspicuous as people in tweeds at the opening of the Metropolitan.” “Never mind, for once. I want to aelabrate.” What she wanted io celebrate he could not tell. At dinner she fell silent, did not touch her food, just sipped the wine he’d ordered, said, apropos of nothing: “Do you like this dress?” He told her that he admired it—in fact, that he had never seen her look better. That was true. In her oyster-white taffeta frock, in a pale gray velvet wrap with a white fur collar high about her throat, all the delicacy of her skin and the lights in her soft hair showed. "Do they call your hair chestnut, Denise?” “Sort of. Neither blonde nor dark; just commonplace.” Why should her voice, saying that not significant sentence, be so tense? “Anything but commonplace, darling. It's the mast beautiful hair I ever saw.” “You think I’m generally beautiful. don’t you? Most people don’t —they don’t look at me twice if Felicia’s in the room." “She shines like an electric light; you're luminous lik* the moon.” “Don’t be unkind, Gilbert. Maybe she won’t shine so brightly any more.” He had not meant to be unkind, and said so. In a voice soft but very far away, Denise said: “That’s all right.” “Are you tired tonight, Denise?” “Not at all. ... I was just thinking." Os nothing, he supposed, concerned with nim. He had grown used to knowing that her thoughts were seldom about him. Her blue eyes regarded him now, as if she were suprised to see him across th* table from her. That I look he had seen in her eye* before. I It always depressed him. ' She said abruptly: “You are ] really fundamentally kind. Not ‘ many people ar*.” ' “You make me sound lik* a St. ] Bernard, rather, Denise: kind, ] faithful, moderately intelligent” Her laughter, as always when it 1 was just friendly and gay, as if they ' were good friends, warmed him. “Do they have night-clubs here, Gilbert ? ■ I’d like to dance.” i “I’ll see.” !

The I automobile was loaded with a high-' > ly expensive wardrobe that includ-, > ed all types of clothing, a saddle' II and riding habit.

— geoisie in cases with music tn* world over. He was interested and diverted, besides being pleased that Denis* seemed to be lighter of heart than since before that cablegram came. Even so, he was surprised that she seemed altogether unwilling to go back to the hotel, in spite of the rather tiring day she’d had. It was past three before she said, finally, “May as well leave, I suppose," and said nothing else, all the way to the Metropole. On the stairway, walking up the single flight to their rooms, he saw two tears caught on the edge of her long lashes. There, she was grieving again for shat man who had sc quickly forgotten her! And what to do to help her. he did not know. Probably she did not want him to notice even that she needed help. . He unlocked the door of her roprn for her, and said lightly: “Sleep well. It was an amusing evening, wasn’t it ?” In the strangest voice she said: “Come in a minute, Gilbert.” Under the old-fashioned chandelier, she turned and faced him. She was trembling. “I wanted to tell you that—that if you love me, it’s all right.” i He took a step toward her. He struggled with the greatest temptation of his life. Those two tears that he had seen, slid down her cheeks; ' but her mouth quivered in a smile. It took him a long minute to find ' his voice. “Denise, my dearest, it isn’t quite as simple as that. Whether you love me or not is important too.” She struggled; he could see her straggle, for composure. He took her hand then. “Everything’s all right, Denise. Only for both our sakes, tell the truth. Don’t pretend.’ 1 She said shakily: “I don’t feel as you do, Gilbert, because I can’t really feel anything at the moment. Only—l thought if it would make you happier—” She grew confused. He moved his dark head once, in a sudden violent gesture of negation. “Leave me my pride, Denise." He saw—that was the most bitter thing—that she was relieved. But suddenly she did something so spontaneous, so impulsive, that he was comforted. She put her slim arms around his neck. She pulled his head down and kissed him. When she looked up at him then, her smile was almost steady. “I'm saying thank you. I suppose 1 did just want to escape thinking things out. But, Gilbert, you are se nice, really.” He said, “Thank vou, darling." ' Then he said, “Good night," and went to his own room, happier than ' he had been in weeks. After that night, he kissed her formally every morning, every evening; and some- ' times, for a breathless moment after . that kiss, he hesitated. But though , she kissed him gently. h» was aware , that some reluctance held her still. 1 And he said to himself, over ana over: “Not until she loves me—not because she’s sorry for me, or feels , under obligation. For the sake of . the chance I think we have again, ; not until she's ready.” i (To be continued) Coprrteht by L'nuia Pan<4l > Distributed by Kane ajadicau. but
