Judith Reving fortune in out of the picture : they have quar- reled, and now, reconciled, have settled back to talk, Chapter 17 NEW RIFT Fi Vaal meal over, dishes back in the ‘* kitchen, Norman found an old scarlet dressing gown, dug in its Pockets for pipe and pouch, then filling and lighting the pipe sank into the divan. Judith, at a gestured invitation, curled into the circle of his free arm, wide eyes on the flames shoot- ing up through the oak logs. Out- side, twilight was moving in, a cold spring wind in its wake. The leaf- less arms of the nearest tree rubbed fretfully against the house, the fire crackled—“Happy?” inquired Nor- man, contentedly. es “Perfectly.” “Wish this could go on forever,” he mused, “no more outside influ- ence. Sounds archaic, maybe, but I believe there’s a primitive need in exery man for a home of his own; y'know, the kind of a need that forces him to go out and make good in, business like-——” “Like the caveman in the forest made good with his billy club?” in- quired Judith, “Judy, you're laughing gt me.” “No I'm not. ['m just thinking how nice it is to be your particular woman, to say nothing of living in such a cave.” “I like this cave too,” he sald, boyishly possessive. She knew he had had but little home life; as Clia had eaid, “Pienty of house and nobody in it.” He settled back again, and then into their. peaceful moment came} the whirr of the telephone. Judith, not wanting to listen, couldn't help hearing a few words and was ready for something. unpleasant by. the time he returned. “Jude—" under the brave scarlet coat his shoulders, were, sagging. “L forgot to tell you. Lampere has called a meeting of stockholders and the board of directors for the company, tomorrow at three. He wants you there.” She nodded. She remembered dimly that Poppy Neville was giv- ing a one o'clock Juncteon and she had promised to help. Would she have time to change? She shouldn't go to such a meeting in a ruMed-silk suit and Dolly Varden hat. “Judith,” Norman interrupted her thoughts, “I'd promised myself 1 wouldn't discuss this Bevin« mat- ter with you, but you're my wife and 1 can't let you go, to that meeting unprepared. | want you to know what other people know. “Judy-girl, | wonder it you real- ized that Big Tom had been losing his mind during the last few months of- bis life; in fact that he. had: a serious brain affliction at the time he drew up that new will?” UDITH jumped, from the encir- cling haven of her husband's arm. “Norman,” she cried. “There, Judy, don’. tal that. it was bound to be you, t know, but I thought ft waa better for me to tell you, than some one else.” 2 “Norman,” she repeated, this time brokenly. Pryrrtrriiiiit iii “To reason, gladly, where is 1t?” Norman’s dark eyes were glowing ‘in. the firelight, his chin had sutted forward. with: Scotch. stubbornness —“you'll admit he. kept, you. work- ing all night the night after his. stroke. Was that an evidence of sanity.” “After what you've just said, Nor- man, it was evidence of more, in sanity ... it was sheer genius. Only a man facing death could have had | the foresight to do what Big Tom Bevins did that night.” “I suppose that you, a twenty- four-year-old——” “Ma’teel calls me an office girl,” supplied Judith bitterly. “Leave Ma'teel out snapped Norman. “Try to leave her out,” laughed Judith. “You were saying, that a twenty-four-year-old office girs ‘pre- sumes,’ is the next word isn’t it?” “Alright ... presumes to know more’ than brilliant, tried and proven engineers and lawyers.” “That's what you really believe,” she said with sudden conviction, then, “Norman, do you see what this is doing to us?” “It needn't,” he replied, arose and walked to the door, “as long as Lige is taking the week off, instead of the day I'll have to go down and look at that furnace.” Judith walked slowly upstairs, undressed mechanically and slid into bed. She felt exhausted. The quick exhilaration of anger had burned out, leaving her numb. Down to the west the full moon began its ascent blocked by the oak tree before the window. Slowly it eased into view, seemingly climb- ing from limb ‘to limb. of this,” 'ORMAN would come up, they would talk it over and regret | their flurry of temper. He would come up before the moon reached the limb with the queer hump. But it flattened its silver surface against the filigree of topmost boughs and sailed on into the clear blue, with no sound from below. - Judith was asleep when Norman, hair rumpled, eyes blinking even in | the soft glow of tLe bed lamp, did appear. She. didn’t see him stand and stare down. at her, 9 ba‘ied, troubled look on his face. Even had she seen the look, she couldn't have known how. much like a child she appeared to the man. In deference to her new dignity as a matron she had let her hair ‘gtow and it lay spread In becoming disorder. on her pillow. Her eyes were tear stained. Her body, fuller now and health ily pink, due to Delphy’s untiring care, Jay clad in maize yellow paja- mas, one foot and one arm hanging over the edge of the bed. Carefully Norman moved them back, pulled the covers high, then went to the chair before the window. ‘They spoke quietly at breakfast, the apprehensive Delphy and Lige hovering around like two solicitous black birds. “Shall I call at Neville’s for you?” Norman asked as he was leaving. “No,” Judith answered, “as long as you belong to the firm retained by the Bevins women, it would be Jess, embarrassing for you if I come as Big Tom's stenographer, rather than your wife.” “Just ag you say.” He kissed: her and left, and Judith felt an, unrea- soning desire to weep because he hadn't insisted upon standi by, her through the coming o: Judith was afterwards to wonder how she manage’ to live through Poppy’s luncheon, Her beruffled frock of dark bluish green, and pert, small hat, won the hearty approval of: Poppy’s, guests. “Look as, though you'd been clip- “Yes dear. it probably came trom jiped from the top of a candy. hoz,” sort of @ belated, sunstroke.
