closer, studying the dishes. A heady perfume, strong and

opened his mouth and gulped. "Good heavens! How awful!"

Myra whispered to her companion.

“I know," th doctor returned,

“but he's an old pal of mine." He could afford to he sociable now. May had seen tills new addition to the party. Hi; could explain that this was the person with whom he was actually lunching, and that it was this man who had really brought Miss Pfeifer along. It was

because It hadn’t been his fault that he had had to dine with a

strange woman.

But May had missed nothing. She had seen her husband beckon to this man—and she was quite certain that he was no friend of the doctor's. In fact, she was just about several jumps ahead of Ed, because she knew who this man was, and she was sure that he didn't. She recognized In the gesture his attempt to fool her. “Well, if Mr. Ed Davis thinks he's going to get away with that,” she murmured to herself, "I can tell him right here and now he's very badly mistaken." The whole thing was so childish. What did he take her for anyhow? she thought. Oh, he'd suffer good and plenty—she’d see to that. She set her lips tightly as she watched her husband hovering over his two guests,” and she smiled a dry, sardonic smile as she saw him excuse himself and hurry over to her table.

She watched the scene.

“But what Is the matter, Doc-

tor?" Myra was persisting.

"Well, you're certainly got me in a nice mess,” Davis grumbled. "Mess? I? What’ve 1 done?” Myra looked as Innocent as a child

CHAPTER III “Why, hello. May!" Dr. Davis seated himself opposite his wife and reached for her hand. "I didn't know you were coming In town today. Why didn't you phone

me?"

"Evidently you didn't know I was coming In town." May snatched her hand away as though she had touched a red hot stove. "Why, what’s the matter, May?" Davis attempted to look Innocent.

towards the entrance of the grill room. In the doorway stood n well dressed gentleman, (|uito evidently looking at May, and not merely looking at her, but looking at her with admiration In his eyes. ' Beranger had got as far as the Grill Room, but thero he paused. The lady ho was following had taken a place at a table. He hesitated and looked about. Behind him stood the house detective, his heavy brows scowling, his heady eyes roaming between Beranger and Mrs. Davis. To all outward appearances It looked as though tho dispenser of “ExquUlte, Exotic and Erotic I’erftifnes" was annoying the lady, and the detective was more •than ready to do hts duty In this case. Something about "that man"

annoyed him.

Beranger felt suddenly hot and then cold. He stole a glance at the detective, and shifted Indecisively. Then his face brightened. Ho stepped across the room to where a man :u a table wins beckoning him. ’’Well, well, well!" Dr. Davis grasped Beranger's hand in a grip that caused the slender young man to wince. “Well, how are you? I'm certainly glad to see you. Sit right down. Mr. Smith, you know Miss 1’feffer, of course. Sit down, old chap." Hurriedly he pushed Iteranger Into a ( hair and thrust a menu card in front of him. Beranger stared In amazement at these strange proceedings. He mumbled something that sounded like “of course he knew Miss Pfef fer." But » hat was It all about? He had never seen either of these people before- and he v.as certain

"Don't ‘darling-honey’ me! And don’t try to pretend that you don't know what I'm talking about. You know perfectly well what I mean, and you needn’t try to tell me you don’t. I walk Into this Grill, and what d > I see? You—lunching— alone—with that—that creature!" "But. May, you don’t under-

stand—”

“Understand! I understand only too well. I know everything I need to know. That's how you spend your time—taking creatures like that to lunch. And here I’ve been believing that all you did was work, and and—we’ve only been married three months, and already you're running around with another woman. It's—it's too

much!"

May’s usually calm blue eyes were flashing fire; her crimson mouth that usually turned up so adorably at the corners was spitting brimstone; her fingers played nervously with her gloyes, with her handbag, with the buttons ou her trim tailored suit, with her fur neckpiece. It was nn entirely new May that appeared, raging with Jealousy and hate. "But if you’d only let me ex-

plain—’’

"Explain! I see nothing to explain -or rather, that you can explain," May Interrupted. "I saw you—holding her hand—” • "May, I was doing nothing of tha sort." Davis exploded. That accusation. he felt, was adding Insult to Injury. "I was feeling her
