Lady Heritage began to speak: “Write it In as neatly as possible, please; it's on one sentence: ‘It is man who has forced “das ewig Welbliche” upon us.’ " Jane wrote, “It is man. and then stopped.

Newspapers, pamphlets and reports littered a table which ran the whole length of the room. Jane quired to open all these as th me | and separate those which dealt with social reform and the innumerable clentific * treatises and re These latter arrived in every pean language.

Lady Heritage and Mr. Ember were walking up and down the terrace, Lady Heritage bareheaded, all in white with not even a scarf, and Jef- frey Ember with a mpffler- round his neck, and the inevitable fur coat. They were coming toward her, and Jane stood back s¢ that the curtains made a screen. She watched Ray- mond Heritage as she had watched the sea and the flowers, for sheer Joy in_her beauty. Raymond's face was toward and she was speaking. Not a word reached Jane's ears, but as she looked at those beautiful lips, their movements spelled words to her—words and sentences.

Both glanced round, and Raymond asked What is it?’ “The letters for Jane.
