T THE BRUTE THE POOR PUP HALF T'DEATH! yor— DAGGER ‘bv Mary Dahlberg SYNOPSIS: d young Dagger Marley, high Texas girl, meets and tragedy twice before she is twenty-one. Blaine Howard whem che rescucd from some Mex- fcan insurgents on the border and loved hopelcssly, is killed on the Western Front in France. Captain Jchn Vaneering, aviator, whom she later married, dies in an airplanc crash. But she cherishes most the memory of Howard. Dagger visits Dick Welling in Paris, an old friend f her childhood on a ranch, now an Englich lord and married to Blaine Howard’s widow, Emily. She mects the Duc de Pontoise, French gencral who was a friend of both Howard and Vaneering and he in turn falls in love with her. In the French fashion he proposes first through his aunt, Princess Bakov- ki, but Dagger says she cannot marry him, Nevertheless the Duc obains permission to plead his own cause. 4 Chapter 26 THE DUC TELLS OF HIS LOVE De Pontoise waited upon Dag- ger the next day. He was his usual self, except for a _slightly tense look about his mouth, and a tinge of color in his cheeks, mir- rored in Dagger's own. There was, too, a formality in his manner which he had abandoned since they had established terms of intimacy. Soldierlike, he went abruptly to his subject “My Tante spoke with you yes- terday,” he said Y Raoul “I regret that I'must scem pro- cipitate,” he continue “but as you have no relative within reach “I am my own mistress,” she re- plied kindly. “Anything you have to say you may say to me, but per- haps I shculd warn you—" she hes- itated— “I told the Princ: P “Please,” he interrupted. repeated your conversation. have a hope to consider se: what I have to say to you."

Doubtless it is enough that I] say that, but if I may, I will add that I have never met a woman I would rather offer my name to. You will not misunderstand me, Dagger. We think the same about these matters. Rank is an oppor- tunity to you, not a means of grati- {ying social ambition. And you and I might achieve more together than separate.” “I am sure of it, women | she agreed. | philosophy of And as he started forward eagerly “No, Raoul, that means only ‘s much.

Your husband is not long—" “Not he,” she denied. “There was another?” “Yes. And after an interval— Howard.” De Senac looked away from her, and she was at pains to keep her eyes down lest they see the pain in his face. “I might have known,” he more to himself than to her. “You have spoken of him. And you are strove for “I shall nev- rs to do with ted passionately. knowledge, that of the same breed.” His heel clicked together. “You will for- give me if I say one thing more, Dagger?” She murmured her assent. ‘It is not easy to say. You will not understand me? Merci! I thought much of Howard. He was my friend. So I would not belittle your feeling for him. But he is Not to me,” she cried with a passion of conviction that shook her voice. “He is as much alive in my heart as he cver was. I married Jack because I thought Jack was like him—and because I wanted to forget, I suppose. I learned my mistake—it was mine, not Jack’s. I won’t make another one, Raoul.
