OF2tALD MOOHE CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE Smiling she left th* telephone to wander to the drawing room where &];-• .studied Ihr-’lf tiefor* a mirror. Lida was i>leased with her reflection. The man who was coming to see her would be quite frankly overcome by her dr s cut daringly low. and thp jewels tin her arms. Sh thought of the man's glittering eyes and warmed at the memory. CHAPTER THIRTY -FOUR BARRETT, riding horn ward after 1 his visit with (Jerald, decided that he would run down to Aiken without forewarning Elinor of his coming. It v, is .a small form of spying, he knew. He quieted his conscience hv telling hims-ls that he might thus discover the extent of her failure to keep their agreement and to deal with the situation before any vssip had begun to be whispered He did not want her a subject for gossip It would destroy her last chance to amount to anything Yes. he would go down without telling her that he was coming. And 1 He had forgotten how. months before, he had warned Miss Ella Sexton that one finds what one is looking for Nearing the suburbs of New York he decided to make the trip by airplane The need to be there was urgent. It was partly his ardent wish to see Elinor and save her from the danger into which her undisciplined feet might lead h*r. and partly his flaming, jealous determination to put Bob Telfare in his place. So he came to the conclusion that the sooner he reached Aiken the better He would say. “Elinor. I am much older than you are. I have decided that for the rest of the y°ar while our marriage endures you are not to see Bob Telfare." As OOOlly and ns kindly as he could, he would sav it Sh# was young. She had had little chance. Suddenly, he heard Elinor's lowvoice saving. "Check'" and saw her impish smile as she looked across the chess men at him Again he was aching for her. HTGGINS packed his clothes that nnrht and made a reservation for the air trip The plane wa to leave at 10 next morning. He would arrive at Aiken between five and six in the afternoon. Barrett spent a busy evening There were several matters to which he must attend before his start. It was just possible that he might linger at Aiken. It all depended. He would reason with her quietly nnd gently, make himself understood and then insist on her obedience Alter that, he would say. “We must be friends. These past weeks have been hell!" What would he not give to hide his eyes against her throat after that! But that, of course, was impossible. She didn't care. It was easy enough to see that! It was altogether too easy to see it! He had been mad to think as he had,

’ even for a short space, that she cared or could care for him. Elinor, at that very moment, stood on a terrace bathed -in moonlight and thought of Barrett .with a tightening of her heart. She knew that she would love him always. No, matter what he thought of her.' what she did or how he scorned her A line some modern poet had written sar.g in her heart. “Life's a quest and love's a quarrel." If that were true Barrett perhaps, In a tempered way, loved her. But she would not allow' herself! to dream thus Again and again she had had such dreams, only to bruise herself against the unyielding wall! of his will. She turned toward the house. The moonlight had suddenly j become unbearably beautiful and a taunt. a a a WHEN Barrett appeared in ▼ Aiken late the next dav he found just what he expected to find j B b Telfare sat An the terrace with! Elinor waiting for her to pour his ; tea Barrett saw them as the rick- j cty automobile he had hired at the' stir ion chugged and struggled up hill. Bpntwell Stafford sat near py in a wheel chair. He made a con- I venient blind. Barrett thought bit- i erlv A voting man could appear to ask about the father and linger to make love to the daughter. Bent well Stafford turned a thin, pale face toward the rising, winding drive. There’s someone coming." he announced. He had always spoken slowly and weakness intensified the old habit. I wonder who It ran be?" Elinor put in. not caring much She was strangely at peace. A bitter, sleepless night had been followed by an unusually pleasant day. Bob had seemed the understanding friend Instead of looking at her. as he sometimes did. in a way that made her more miserable. Above all Things Elinor did not want to hurt Bob as she herself had been hurt.' knowing how painful heartache can be She had been happier too because her father seemed a little better that day. Bent well Stafford looked at the young man with pitying eyes. Bentwell understood. Bob reached quickly for a cigaret He was smoking too much these davs, he realized. The motor was pulsing before the house. Soon the maid would step from one of the French windows that opened on the terrace, bringing a card on a trav. Then Elinor would disappear. Bpntwell wasn't strong enough to see many visitors. But- the maid did not step from the long window. Instead Barrett Colvin rounded the corner of the house and moved swiftly toward the group He called out with mock heartiness, “Well, this is fine!” Elinor rose, flushing. “Barrett!” she cried under her breath. <7 0 0 BOB'S heart broke anew as he saw Barrett hold Elinor close and kiss her. saw her clinging to him while tears brimmed in her eyes. Barrett did not see those ! tars. He had turned swiftly, blinded by the emotion of the moment, to Bpntwell Stafford. "It's good to see you out!" Barrett murmured, his hand in Bentwell's. “And It’s goo to be out.” “Bob—" Barrett said next. Short that greeting and short the hand clasp. “Mv Lord!" Bob reflected hotly. “Does he think I'm cutting in? Does he think I could —with Elinor?" “Any tea for me?" Barrett asked as he dropped to a solid garden chair near the small table. "Plenty! It's so good to see you!” she answered She was sitting in a wicker chair with a spreading peacock back. It framed her and made her seem | delicately small. The gold of her* autumn brown hair was accented by a jaunty sport frock of gold colored linen. With her abbreviated skirt and flat heeled shoes she looked no; ; older than 16. (To Be Continued.)

Holt heard the girl reply to Mrs. Cutten's preferred Introduction: “Oh. how do you do. Thank you so much. I'm really looking for my father. Can’t think why he isn't here. I cabled him. My name's Parker—JEAN Parker.** “Excuse me," said Holt, coming forward. "Did you say Miss Parker?'*

“Yes." smiled back the beautiful one. “But what a good thing we were here!" cried fussy Mrs. Cutten. “This is Mr. Holt, your father's —er—er—partner." “What tremendous luck." exclaimed the girl. “He's here, isn't he—father, I mean? He hasn't moved away—or anything?"

“No. he hasn't moved away." laughed Holt, “but you've just caught him ir.*time ” The three walked slowly up the path, John Holt devoutly wishing Mrs. Cutten would depan. But that lady was too full of questions, too hungry for London news and its latest fashions, to sense that "three is a crowd.”
