He looked at her stupidly, quite sure | he had not heard her correctly. | She repeated her statement. “I am | leaving tonight—I do not know when I| shall reurn.” “But—but—"_he stammered and still gazed at her as though he were | having a nighmatre. “You can use the ballet number with- out me,” Yvonne continued. “Two of the girls can deance unusually well. If you start them rehearsing now they can fill in for me tonight.” This convinced him of her earnest- ness. First he tried persuasion, then he attempted to win her pity, then he began to bluster. But to all his plead- ings and threatenings Yvonne turncd a | deaf ear. She wes sailing at nidnight. “Then you'll not get another chance with me!” he roared. “I'll tell the story of \how you break contracts for a whim | all up and down Broadway. There isn't a manager who'll take a chance with you when I get through talking.” Yvonne shrugged and left his office He ran after her, but she had disap- peared. Sailing to Richard. At midnight Yvonne and the aston- ished Lottie left New York. Yvonne. listening for the boat to start, felt as though the throb of th> engines kept time with her own heartbeats. Each one took her nearer to Richard. Never had a boat moved so slowly. Yvonne paced the deck restlessly. At times she wanted to scream, to do something to make them sail fester over the monot- onous blue ves. o ¢ And alw she thought of Richard. She prayed he might stay a day or two in Paris. She couid not tell how far behind him she might be. would walk into Normandy, as he had done in that far away time when he | had found and married her. That would give her time to arrive first if days of fair sailing eemed to most pas- rs a pleasant inquiries at the customs. | The American, Mr. Ross, had arrived two days previously. He had gone di- rectly to Paris. From there they could not tell, though some one had said he would go to the interior. Yvonne pushed on to Paris. At the little hotel where they had stayed when they first came to Paris she learn=d that Richard had left on foot for Nor- mandy two days before. Yvonne thought rapidly. To overtake him seemed al- most hopeless. He wouid, by steady walking and going directly, be nearly there. Trains were slow and uncertain. Surely there was some direct way. ‘Then her face lightened. Catching Lottle by the arm, she ran to her hired cab. After a few moments’ speech with the driver they were off and ‘Yvonne was sitting perched on the edge of the seat ready to spring out the mo- ment they stopped.

Bookings for Channel Crossings.” Lottle, who hated to be left alone, fol- Jowed her mistress into the office, where the subsequent conversation in French alarmed her by its vehemence. Sud- denly it was over. Yvonne turned a smiling face to Lottie. “Trains are slow, Lottie; automobiles are little better over our roads, and so— I shall fly to my old home.” Lottie’s face turned gray with fear. Her eyes rolled back until the whites showed. “Is you expectin’ me to go i t00?” she gasped. “Yvonne laughed. “No, Lottie, I'm Qiiick relief for COLDS _ since 1889 577 > Tired of sitting at home A beautiful bride of only self bored, bored to tears.
