In spite of herself she burst out with— *What 1 want to know is, what are we goin’ to do? 1 mean, all Sam and I have got is my little in- come that I’ve been spendin’ on my- | self, It won’t go anywhere. Why, it isn’t three hundred a year and | Mark’s doctor's fees have come to nearly that before now!” “Still, you are fortunate in having it,” said Mrs. Quentin, her eyes upon the.distant window. “Hayen’t you—you don’t mind my askin’—haven’t you anything at all of your own?” “Nothing... Less, even, than Lie- } nel thinks.” “How d’you mean?” “I mean that I tied to him the other day,” explained Mrs, Quentin, her dark head still motionjess against the back of the seat. “You see, I once had a young cousin, a reckless, lovable boy. -A few years before his death he needed a loan and he insisted on giving me as part security some shares he held in a South African enterprise. Oh, I think I saw purse beckoning! No, it’s only the shadow of the apple- tree.” “Was it a gold-mine?” Mrs. Lode- ly gave the short, bigh laugh with which she usually covered embar- fassment and interest. } Mrs, Quentin and Mrs, Lodely endured each oth & solicitor, eyen it he the.

Mrs. Quentin on Mrs. Lodely simply ag a &@ maddening noise that per Sted somewhere beyond the cirgle ot her dedicated thoughts. “Do change places with me, Py Mrs, Lodely for the third tima, “Yon ought to be relaxin’ comfortably after not sleepin’ at all for two nights.” “Thank you, but t would rather Mot move,” refused Mrs. Quentin, also for the third time, “I can see Liogel’s window from here ang as goon.ag the nurse draws up the Dlind it will mean he is awake and ‘wanting me and I must run in, If Fou will excuse me.” Mrs. Lodely muttered sympathet- feally apd lit another cigarette, Bhe- wished sho could remember that this was a house lying under the shadow of death, but Lionel Quentin had been so many months fying and the disaster of the firm's w “I'm afraid not, Mr, Cane is yery kindly having enquiries made in rg, but he confessed that gt first glance the shares ap- | ‘peared to him practically worthless. Nevertheless, 1 have told Lionel that I managed to dispose of them for five hundred, It has eased his mind @ great deal,” “But how long does he think that will last you, with a child to keep? Or shall yon send Barbara back to | your sister in France?” “No, he wishes me to keep her with me, after he is gone. And the money, he thinks, wil} give me time to clear things up and look ‘round @ little, You must remember that bis mind is clouded, now, so near the end,” Mrs, Lodely, who never thonght | anything worth discussion, agreed absently, She smoked, stared at ber hostess and presently burst again into protest. “My trouble is, 1 don’t really understand what's happened, 'Tisn’t as if either your husband or mine had ever had a crooked thought in their lives, bless ‘em! Lived saad they thonght right it beast Black let them | ede: wit seems they trusted him toc | blindly. They placed most of the | Armitage fortune, for instance, in his bands, against securities that | were afterwards discovered to be | forgeries. - Naturally, they feel ac. | countable, They are accountable.” Mrs, Lodely snorted. “Well, you may think so and the | law may say so but I don't eare, | {don’t agree. Payin' back all that | Armitage money out of our private | Pockets is funacy, I say. It'N be years before that kid—what was his | ame? Parrell?--before young Far- | rell Armitage comes of age.” Mra. Quentin did not pursue the | financial argument, “The vicar misses Farrell terri- bly, I believe,” she said. “He haa him in his charge for a whole year, wasn’t it? Ob hello!” “It's “Just turning into the drive.” (Copyright, 1922, Jutig Cleft-Addems) Seiegram, tomorrow, Mrs. Lodely's curicsity. Gane's Cane,” said Mrs, Lodely,.
