He explained, "Reporters have been on her trail ever since young Morgan's death. Bat she’s managed to elude them and the affair’s just about lost its news value now. I don’t think she’ll be bothered much longer." Brent put ent Ms hand. He said, "I don’t know how to thank yea. You eould have made this very hard forme." The two men shook hands. Clay’s grin was erooked. He said. "I hope you lose, Randolph. I'd be more i than human If I didn't. But at least ’ you have the right to see her." I “You love her, too." It waa a statement, not a question. "You’ve always loved her." “I want her to be happy," Clay told him, “more than anything in the world.

Her cheeks were rosy with cold, her soft fair hair wind-tumbled beneath her tiny dark hat. She had been walking la Lincoln Park for want of something bettor to do. The days were so long, so empty, the mornings worse than the afternoons, because one eould at least see a movie in the afternoon. March had seen four movies la as many days and they had began, definitely, to pall. The evenings weren’t so bad. Clay was very faithful. But it would be ■ • I"*? tteen nwHt svsnlstg. March slid down one glove, consulted her wristwatch. It was barely eleven, she had been out less than sn hour.

You i may »«nd him up when he Comes " She wondered gratefully, cross- 1 ing to the elevators, how Clay had managed to get away at this hoar 1 Perhaps they eould have lunch to gether. In her small, rather stiff sitting-room, she slipped out of her coat, pot her hat aside. She went on through to the bedroom and applied fresh lipstick before the dresser mirror, brushed her shining hair smooth. There was a knock at the door and March went eagerly to open it. her lips framing a welcome. But it wasn't Clay who stood there, who eame Into the little room as March stepped back dasedly. The sight of Brent's tall form, the sight of bis dear, dark fees, brushed aside all thought and memory of Clay. Above the pounding tumult of her heart, March managed to murmur Ms name. But Brent stood silent. Staring at her, drinking In each lovely unforgotten detail. After a moment sanity returned to March. She thought, with a sort of sick clarity. He's eome about the divorce. I knew I'd have to see him, to talk with him sometime. . . . Dear God. let me bear this without Mo knowing what It eosto me. He would bo kind—and I don't want his pity. ... She said, keeping her tone light. "You—startled me, rather. I expected to see Clay.

"Gay's been eom ptetely wonderful. He told you, of course, that I've been hiding out from reporters?" "Yes. It's been hard on you, I know." “Won’t you sit down?" “Thanks.” Brent took off his coat and March pieced it, with hands that weren't ' steady, beside her own.
