The center of all this confusion was Liane who sat, pale as a dove, in a big chair in her -rose-tinted room, Clive was at the club, He had fone there the week before to live. His mother thought it proper. Liane had begged to return to her shabby little apartment and to be married from there. But the dow- ager, as usual, had overridden her objections. “Nonsense,” Mrs. Cleespaugh had And that ruling went unchal- So now Liane’s wedding day had arrived. Her gown was waiting on its scented hanger. Her cobwebby underthings with their traceries of priceless lace. Her frail, exquisite vail and shining, narrow slippers. Cass fluttered back and forth be- tween the two rooms, youthful and smart in her biscuit colored frock. “Time to dress now, sweet,” she said after a final nervous glance at the clock. “It's a quarter past three.” The wedding was set for. four. Liane rose obediently. Nora and Eileen who had been waiting for this very moment appeared from the hall and begged to be allowed to assist. Among them all, they arrayed her. Like a lay figure Liane submitted docilely to their ministrations, “Darling, your hands are cold as ice,” Cass murmured. “Ab, she’s nervous,” Nora broke Dimly in the glass She} saw her own reflection.

They folded it around her, They led her down- stairs. “We're a few minutes early,” Cass murmured. She left Liane alone in the small sitting room. She had forgotten her gloves. Tressa came in. She wore a dove gray dress that fitted as though ghe had been poured into it. She said, “I should have left for the church ages ago but I wanted to see you.” Liane regarded her calmly. “I have a message for you,” Tressa said. She held out her hand. Liane’s fingers closed over a thick envelope. “You were to read it before you left," Tressa said. Her voice had a strange, compelling urgency. “Quick, before anybody comes!” She darted to the door and stood, her back to Liane, guarding her. Liane tore open the envelope with trembling fingers. “I shall wait for you always,” she read. “Wait for me. I am free. Muriel has eloped with Des- mond.” Liane crumpled the note. With steady steps she walked to the fire- Place. In an instant that note flared up, melted into ashes, She turned, Tressa watched her, her breath coming quicker with ex- citement. “I can help you to get away,” Tressa told her. “Eva is upstairs. It’s not too late to back out of this.” Liane looked at her as it at a tranger. “I’m not backing out,” she said in a lifeless voice. “What made you think I was?” The other girl laughed shrilly. “You're a fool,” she said harshly. “You'll be sorry for this, Don’t forget I warned you.” Liane said, “You've been my enemy from the first, Why, I don’t know. I've never done anything to harm you. Now you want me to be a traitor, to break my word. I’m not going to. Do you hear me?” ‘Tressa stamped her foot, “Haven't harmed me? You took away the man I wanted, that’s all. Little sneak! And you don’t care that for him!” She snapped her long fingers. “Eva's a fool. She can't see through you. You'll be cheat- She was a curiously appealing figure in her swirling robe of ivory velvet. Tressa hated her at that moment as she never had before. Still she kept her vioce sweet and wheedling. “You haven’t any word for me to give Van? No answer?” A little tremor ran through Liane’s slender body. She thought of that strong brown hand closing over hers, She said to herself, in utter con- fusion, “Perhaps I’m wrong in deny- ing myself this chance, Perhaps it's fate—’ For an instant she wavered, her indecision manifest in every curve of her innocently re- vealing face. Tressa seized her opportunity. Already she heard the voices on the stairs, the sound of the tires of the wedding car, as Kelly swept it | around the corner of the drive, “This is a sort of eleventh hour reprieve,” she said hurriedly. “He’s mad about you. He can make lite heaven or you yourself can make it hell, Think fast.” “Oh God, help me!” prayed the young girl wildly. “Help me to do what's best!” ‘i Mile. Denise fluttered in, “I myself will carry the train, Miss Barrett. Nothing shall harm {t.” Tressa interposed skillfully. “Never mind, Mam’selle. “I'll ride with Miss Barrett. We'll rush on ahead. “You needn't mind.” With a sudden movement Liane was at the door, She wrapped the voluminous folds of ermine around her. She signaled the Frenchwo- man to follow her. Like a princess of the blood she took charge of the situation, Her volce was cool, steady, Her hand no longer trem- bled. “You needn't bother, Miss Lord,” she said. “We shall manage. You'd better hurry or you'll be late for my wedding.” Tressa laughed, but there was no mirth in the sound. “I wouldn't miss that for anything,” she sneered. Defeated, with emolder- ing eyes, she watched them drive away. As the big car swept out of sight she said fiercely, “I hope she never reaches there alive.” eee LD ladies turned their heads to watch her as she passed, The whisper ran from mouth to mouth, “Lovely!

She had her mother’s blessing, Now in the car with her husband she faced the reality at last. He stooped to her, brushed her lips with his own. “Sorry, but they'll think it queer if I don't,” he had muttered softly. She had later a hazy recollection of a long table glittering with sil- ver and crystal. Of someone pour- ing champagne into a graceful glass. Of her own lips touching it. She heard the polite toasts, She flung her bouquet of whXe orchids from the top of the stairs, The dreamlike quality of the occasion persisted although she knew in her heart that all this was real, Then she was in her own room again and the maids were assisting her out of her finery, laying out the pale beige frock and the sable coat for her going away. At the last the girl had a word for Cass, “I didn’t want to worry you,” she said brokenly. “I never meant to, no matter what I did.” Cass was troubled at this obscure apology. “You never did in all your life,” she cried, She smiled, putting it all down to the child’s natural emo- tion at leavetaking, “You were always the best, the sweetest—” she muttered. She turned up the corners of her lips resolutely, What a@ fool she was letting the child go away weeping! “Dry your eyes,” she commanded with mock severity. “What will Clive think if we send him off with @ red-eyed bride?” Cass reflected with some satis- faction that she was glad that dreadful man Robard had not come to the church. She had been afraid he would. She had seen his name on the list of wedding guests. Well, she had*been wrong to think Liane was interested in him. She had not wanted her to have anything to do with that clan. How silly she had been to worry! There had been nothing to it, “This day is a climax in my life,” Cass thought thankfully. “Every- thing I hoped for has come to Liane. Love, security, happiness, “Oh, it was more than she had hoped for really. Yet how changed the child seemed. How quiet and repressed. Cass shrugged away her momentary anxiety.

Lady Astor declared herself en- chanted with Russia, “the best-run country on earth.” GARRISON PIONEER DIES Garrison, N. D.

If he is a German, he will have imbibed 15,000 quarts of beer. If he is a smoker, he would have added 40,000 cigars or somewhere between 100,000 to 200,000 cigarets to the material that has passed into his interior.

However, the scientific phy- sician is not likely to consider food in the light of muscle, bone, fat and brain. Rather he is likely to be con- cerned with proteins, carbohydrates and fats. As distributed among the ;main body constituents there are 99 | pounds of water, 30.8 pounds of pro~ |tein, 15.4 pounds of fat, 7.7, pounds of minerals and 1.5 pounds of car- bohydrates. ‘We eat in order to supply ourselves with these body elements and in order to develop the energy used in our bodily activities, We eat also for health and for growth. Hence it is that a certain amount of knowledge is necessary in order to select a diet that will meet all of these necessities. oer — Another Eaker Hopes To Make Good in Air Washington, Aug. 3.—(?)—Another Eaker hopes to carry the family name into air corps history.
