That night, for the frst time in monthe, the Dennison family sat down tn dinner togethar. It wasn't particularly pleasant meal, but it wa significant that thex were all there, it was significant that in spite of all t angry words that had heen exchanged that afternoon. something had drawn them to a common board. Dimly John felt something of this and wished for the power to behave as | though nothing had happened. He | found it impossible to do this, how ever, and so remained for the most part silent and constrained. Arthur, because of his excesses of the last two days and his worry ever what had occurred in Mimi’s apart ment, and the result of it, looked | white and tired. For the most part he was silent, addressing his only re- | marks to his mothe Martha herself was sick with de pression. She felt a_humiliation® that was galling in the extreme to one of her pride. She felt that inadvertently che had nffered Parry more than he had wished to accept, and the thought made her writhe with self-scorn. His ronfession with regard to atalie had frst amazed her, and then left her with her pride humbled to the dust 3he felt that she could never raise her head azain, that her spirit was dead within her Natalie wa the only one of the four who ate her dinner with apparent un concern. Sublimely unconscious of the fact that she had inspired a pas slon in Perry Macdonald's heart, she felt tonight serene and self-possessed She had settled to her own satisfac- tion her affair with Lucien Bartlett, and surprisingly enough she felt np pang at giving up his friendship. Tt was as If in a single night she had suddenly grown up, as though her ideas about life had suddenly crystal- lized, and come clear and understand able, and if it had not been for the restraint at the dinner table she would have been almost happy. She had made up her mind to see Lueien just onca more. That much was necessary in order to end her friendship with him definitely. Of course, it was possible to avoid him, but Natalie was ton frank for this. She wanted evervthing understmod hatween them. She wanted to ex press her viewpoint to him In words, and for this reasen she intended to see him for a few minutes in a day or twn, After that she did not know what the intended to do, but that she wanted to dn something definite with her life was certain. She did not want to undertake a caresr for the IR XLIX. MENU FOR A DAY. RREAKFAST. Prunes With Lemon. Cereal With Cream Spanish Omele Corn Muffins Coffee, LUNCHEON Baked Stuffad Peppers.

After the meal, no one seemed at all certain of what he or she wanted to do. The whole procedure was so strange, it was so oiit of the o) ‘o have a_quiet dinner at home, with nothing planned for the evening, that all the Dennison family save Martha, who was used to being left alone, felt restless and ill at ease. Of course, what Arthur wanted was to find out as soon as possible what had happened after he left Mimi's apartment that day. He had searched the papers diligently ever since he left, but nothing had appeared and he had hegun to helieve_that pérhaps, after all. evervthing was all right. As to his feeling for Mimi, the wound <he had left was still ton fresh for him to probe. He did not know how he felt toward her, and he was too sick at heart to care. John Dennigon, instead of escaping immediately to the club, as had al- ways been his custom, went into the living room and sat down with the | newspaper. Martha, who had gone fo her room, was aware of the fact that John had not left the apartment, and the fact stirred strange feelings in her | heart and made her wonder a little. She sat at her dressing table, staring into the glass without seeing herself, and after a time Natalie knocked at her door, and at her mother’'s bhidding entered the room and came over‘to Martha's side.
