Her conscience scared up ghosts. « If - he was pre-occupied, she at once suspected that he had heard a rumor. Against the evil day she made a nervous effort to ‘pile up goodwill in her own favor.

He wrote again; when she refused to answer, telephoned her. “Listen; Santa. Those things are yours.” “‘Not any longer, Dicky.” “But I gave them to you.” them.” “Then you told him about our meetings?” She hung up. His persecution, which she had hoped was ended, burst into a new vigor. He bombarded her with letters, telephone calls, even telegrams. Sooner or later, as in the days when her divorce had been pend- ing in Chicago, he would take to waylaying her. ‘When the encounter happened A tang of spring was in the air.

You know I won't want you, but you're looking 1ill, Dicky.” “Rather to be expected.” They struck out in the direction of the Metropolitan Museum. At last he broke the silence. “I'm heart-broken.” “You ought to be.” They had reached the steps of the Metropolitan. She held out her hand. “Is this all you had to say, that couldn’t be written.” “There’s more.” “I'm sorry,” she murmured, to me you're dead.” “Dead!” He groaned as if she had stabbed him. ‘She tripped up the steps. Before she entered the Museum, she turn- ed. With the disconsolate air of a homeless dog, he stood gaping after her. This proved to be the first encounter of a new attack. Clive would have had to have been blind not to notice that there was something far wrong with Santa. She betrayed her condi- tion in surreptitious ways. Where- as formerly -they had read their correspondence together, now she rushed to sort the mail before he could steal a glance at it. If the telephone rang when he was at home, she would jump up breath- lessly. “For me, I expect.” When it wasn't, the relief in her voice was apparent. Tedious evenings. Futile over- tures, trailing off into silence. Santa rose languidly. “My head aches, darling. off to bed.” Closing the book of which he had read scarcely a line, Clive caught her hand. “You shouldn't embroider so “but I'm “Clive hates to see me wearing|$®- Fraternal Societies OF Gastineau Channel B e e —— " PROFESSIONAL .
