Chapter 49. THE SOLUTION ERE was a long silence. The vicar’s stick leaned idle against his knee. Barbara began to wonder whether the old man had gone to sleep. When he moved, however, and eyed her from under the wide shadow of his hat, she saw that he Was very much awake. “What's in the back of your head, my dear Barbara, is that, in the end the only reason Farrell has not been able to buy you is that he has too much money.” She frowned. “Well, in a way. Yes. Perhaps. Yes, I suppose his strength is, fun- damentally, money.” “Then 1 have a piece of directly heaven-sent nows for you. Most of the Armitage fortune went in the Metric crash last week. Farrell isn’t penniless, but he will have to fight his way up the ladder again, and as he was born quite half-way up to start with he is going to find climb- ing a very humiliating and bitter thing.” There was another long silence. Then— “What did you say about Farrell?” stammered Barbara. “Oh, nonsense; you heard me perfectly,” returned '*o vicar. “Get up and run along and find him; your brain will begin to work once you are moving. I left him right at the top of the house packing up a case of little fancy-dress dolls. A wed- ding present, I gathered, for you and Mark.” : . . . . ° ° e “You swear this isn’t pity, Bar- bara?” “It isn’t pity.” “Because I’m no Mark. I don’t ‘want support. I never will let you carry me along with your own ca- reer. I’m down now, but I'll be up again. I'll give you pearls yet, and I shall loathe it if you can afford them before I can. I suppose it’s pride, but I’m not used to poverty—” “You gave me a year to learn that I should be happier married to you than to Mark. Now the year is up, and I've come to tell you you were Tight. I want to marry you. Do you still want me? Or not?” “Do you love me, Barbara? As 1 love you?” “I love, you—in my own fashion, T can’t love otherwise. Isn't it enough?” In this empty room nothing seemed to register as real and ar- ticulate except, for some reason, Farrell's hands. “He is—very eas- fly hurt just now.” Yes, his hands were the hands of a man easily hurt. Whereas Mark's hands were strong and greedy and clever, these were trained only to physical combat or to social ease. They looked help- leas, now, fumbling with a tiny silk- clad doll. “No, better get it clear,” said Bar- bara, as though the old vicar were at Farrell’s elbow. “Perhaps my kind of love'isn’t enough for you. I can’t pretend, you see, to be other than lam. Farrell, that first night when we found Leila’s portrait in the Toxeter house you said that when Mark was well and rich and enjoying life | should be free to choose. Spirit-free. That’s come true. But you said I'd choose you. That didn’t come true until now that you may have need of me.” “Then it is pity?” “What if itis? If I can’t love you until I can help you, why should you be burt by that? You say you fell in love with me at first sight, but 1 think you loved your own idea of what you were to make me. I am not like that, I can’t be hung with pearls at the end of your battles. 1 must be in the battle, too, And I think that if all that is pity you will Just have to endure it as I shall have to endure your pride and your stupid little sorenesses. “But perhaps,” added Barbara, suddenly all gaicty because of the surrender in his empty hands, “you would like a year in which to come to seo that I am right?” . At six o'clock punctually Leila ceased to be the best-dressed girl at Malavie's and, stepping westwards, became rapidly more and more out- moded. Bond Street saw her in definitely last year’s garb, and when For Dangerous Coughs For many years our best doctors have (yrescribed creosote in some form for | coughs, colds and bronchitis, knowing how dangerous it is to let them hang on.

NEW KIND OF PAINT A Cleveland company has de- | William Johnson, Colored, a car drew up beside her as she waited to cross Piccadilly and a voice spoke her name she wondered only which {* was of the De Capo @ragon-flies that hovered for a mo- ment to tease her and then be gone. “Get in, please, Leila!” It was Mark. As she got in she reflected that she had no‘ seen him for months. She sank back upon the pale cushions of his car and, push- ing her hat further from her face, passed her hands over her face in an effort to rub away some of her fa tigue. “What's the matter?” demanded Mark, instantly querulous. “You aren’t going to cry, are you? If you are, get out again, that’s all! Crv ing women look like hens.” “['m moved, but not to tears,’ Leila assured him, “I sent my con grats by Barbara, Mark. Did you get them?” Mark immodiately became angri- er. “Are you talking about this?” He thrust a crumpled paper at her. “This morning’s paper? Di'you know I’ve only just read it?” Leila eyed him over'the top of her powder-puff, “Well, another time ask them to wake and call you earlier, call you earlier, mother dear.” He flung the paper to the floor. “You stupid fool, I was with Patsy last night at the De Capo, and we went wandering off into the country afterwards, I forgot why. Only came back to St, John’s Wood an hour ago. I’ve been trying to get hold of Barbara.” “You sound as though you weren’t pleased that she has chosen you, after all.” “Chosen?” Mark was livid. “Of all the blazing, sickening insolence, whistling me up in front of all my friends like that!” “Are you trying to tell me that you didn’t send that announcement to the papers?” “I certainly didn’t!” “But you've been hanging round her ever since your cure, you've been trying to cut out Farrell Armi- tage, you’ve been— Don’t you want to marry Barbara?” “Yes, Ido. At least I suppose | do. In a way. But when I choose. Not when she chooses.” “Barbara didn’t send that an- nouncement, Mark. She thought it was your doing.” Mark gaped. For a moment he looked like his mother. “She was angry about it,” contin- ued Leila slowly. “So angry that she went off early this morning and definitely promised to marry Far- tell.” “That's a lie!” “No. It isn’t. And, anyway, you won't help any by hurting my wrist. She ‘phoned the senior partner at Jacques Malavie’s and asked him to tell me. Apparently she and Farrell are going to join Kenneth Poole in South Africa, ...Oh, Mark!” Mark had let her wrist go and was huddling into his corner of the car. His shoulders trembled. “Oh, Mark, don’t! Are you crying, Mark?” Sight and sound became fluid for Leila, merging into her desperate hope. “Don’t care so much, Markie; marry me instead, we'll have lots of fun yet. You won't find me boring, you know.” “Get out!” ordered Mark thickly. Ho swung open the door, but he did not order his chauffeur to stop. Leila, her eyebrows very arched, waited. Mark shut the door sulkily. “All right!” he grumbled. “We'll get married, then, and before they do, That'll be something. Did you know Armitage has gone broke? He told me yesterday. Do you imagine he sent the announcement?” “No, I don’t.” “Who, then?” She shook her head. Patsy? Judy? No. No. Her chaotic mind rejected both of them. Mr. Frere? Just possibly, Mr. Frere? Then Mark, too, was saying some- thing about Mr. Frere. “—told me I ought to marry you, not Barbara, So that naturally 1 decided I'd be damned if 1 did. But probably we shan’t ha’ enough money to stay married long. It's a pity you threw away that emerald. I might have sold it back to Bar bara.” (Copyright, 1932, Julia Cleft-Addams) ——The End—— Found Dead This Morning William Jo on, “Rankins”, 66 years old, colored, was found dead’ this morning in a building at the foot of Simonton street.
