She was docile, sweet, gay. “And Lord, but you're dear to me!" he thought frequently as he looked at, her across the chess table or listened to her music. .Slowly, the conviction had been growin, in Barrett's mind that she was fond of him, that she really cared. She had followed him into the hall that morning as he was about to leave the house. “I'm going to Aunt Bessie's after lunch," she. said, "but, T'll be back in time for tea. That is—l will if you'll be here—' He was engaged on a research .lob a rath<r demanding piece of work that had Nrpt him away from the house more than he liked. “Wouldn’t miss it for the world,” he assured her. “Then I'll be here,” she said, smiling. Almost at once she had looked awav and before he could reply Higgins appeared to say that Mrs. Radnor wanted to speak to Mrs. Colvin. “Just, a moment, Higgins,” Elinor answered. Barrett, stooping, kissed her lips. “For Higgins’ benefit,” he explained as the butler disappeared. Then for a moment Barrett eyed her steadily. “No.” he said. “I lied. I kissed you because I wanted to—” a a a SHE said nothing, but her smile was a little tremulous, her eyes misty. He kissed her hands suddenly as he had never kissed her lips, then turned hurriedly toward the door. She stood where he had left her, heart, eyes closed. For weeks she had known something of his growing feeling for her. She had heard it in his voice which softened as he spoke to her. She had seen it in the hungry eyes that followed her. “Oh—make it eomc true!” .she prayed. “I cant live without him!” “Mrs. Radnor is waiting," Higgins reminded humbly. "Oh, yes!” she laughed unsteadily. She had forgotten. "Yes, Marcia?” she said breathlessly a moment lajcr. Barrett had kissed her because he wanted to! Kissed her because he wanted to. “I'm sorry, Marcia, I didn't catch that. Oh, yes—for the baby's bath. 11l come right down. No. nothing's wrong. The connection is a little bad " The result of Barrett's working day could have given, to even a less ambitious workman, no reason for pride. Ban AT 2 o'clock, Barrett rose. “I'm going to luncheon, Blinker,” he said, “and I'm not coming back today. Have Miss Pringle’s American Indian donation ready for me. Til look it over in the morning.” “I’m afraid." said Blinker humbly, "that you'll find it’s a fake.”

i "Ini afraid so, too,’ said Barrett. Rather an awkward affair. He didnt like to hurt an old lady who wanted to do something "worth while" for a unlersity museum. Once out of the building, he moved swiftly. He was going home to the girl whose face now haunted him everywhere. Home to ask whether he had a chance to be her husband for all time. Home to say, I want to woo you and win you—if I can! You don't know - how I'll i try; how much you mean to me. "You never will know. I suppose, but 1 11 try to prove it with the years —” How could be endure it if she should say definitely that he had no chance and never could have a ; chance? His heart chilled. He reached home at 3 to learn that Elinor had not yet returned. If she were in Brooklyn with Bessie he would call for her. he decided, warming at the promise of the extra time with her and the thought of having her beside him. He telephoned Bessie Thrope and learned that Elinor had left an hour before. “She was only here a little while," Bessie said. “She had luncheon here. Elinor says little Dick Radnor is so sweet, Barry! She saw him have his bath this morning ” He answered vaguely, adding, “Do you know where Elinor went?” Bessie did not know'. “I had the impression." she said, "that she was going straight home." His elation was strangely exhausted. He said “thank you" and then “goodby." Elinor might have stopped to shop or to see some friend, he reasoned; yet suspicions that had been sleeping were suddenly aroused. n n tt IJ F, settled moodily in the drawing room by a window to smoke continually and to frown. A French i clock that stood on the mantel struck four. From the hall came the quarter hour—a full day later jit seemed! She was usually in by four. He rose and stood by the window 7 . The lengthening chime that told half past four came from the hall. Barrett began a muttered affirmative response but the words broke in i the middle of it. A motor car had paused outside—a low, open sport : car. Bobby Telfair stepped from it and opened the door. Elinor, smiling. descended. Barrett moved* back from the window. So this w’as the explanation of her delay! This was the reason Be.ssie had thought Elinor was going straight home! She came in quickly, her step eager. She w 7 as late and she had particularly looked forward to the quiet tea hour with Barrett, who had kissed her that morning because he wanted to! She had gone from Bessie's to ; see Philip, who w 7 as ill. She i wanted to tell Barrett about Philip. She had not as yet. Elinor dreaded his censuring Philip for taking as much from her as he had and she had not been able to nerve herself to combat with Barrett nor to threaten, through any confidence, the growing peace and happiness of their hours together. The fact that she had not told Barrett about Philip weighed her | essentially truthful mind. "Barry!” she called eagerly from the doorway. He turned stiffly. "I'm so sorry to be late,” she | said, moving toward him. Would I he kiss her again? "I was delayed. I wouldn't be ! here now if Bobby Telfair hadn't met me and picked me up—” The words stopped. All too evidently Elinor could see in the man's stony eyes that he did not believe her. (To Be Continued) State Labor Head Quits HARRISBURG. Pa.. July 15.

“Why. I even told Lieutenant Cecil, who loves her," said Tarzan. ruefully, "that I knew she ws a Red spy. Now, not only mvist I return to And my wife, but I must right this wrong.”

“Don't worry about THAT,” said Colonel Capell. “She must have convinced Cecil that shn is no enemy spy, for just before they left this morning he told me she had promised to marry him.” THE END
