He had prnpuse\dl to Evelyn the week before her fath- er's death, and having been courteous- ly but firmly refused had gone away, seeking in travel to stifle the restless hopes whose denial had broken his life. Convinced finally that it was of no use, and like a moth eager to singe its wings again, he returned to Amer- ica and to Evelyn's home, only to learn that she had moved to Westwood. A day later found him sitting in| ie; I won't aive you and the rest are too bl:ad to nothings, while Evelyn in a big chair by the fire listened silently. Her attitude puzzled him, and he set himself to unravel it. Her greeting of bim, for instance, had been Kkinder than he had anticipated, but upon the entrance of her nieces she had with- drawn into herself and subsided into a mere spectator. It was not that she Patiently she enjoyed the girls’ nonsense—it was rather that she felt herself outside of it all and| apparently did not object. Contrast- ing her with the brilliant, animated girl she had been, he found her hard to understand While not profound, Travis loved Evelyn devotedly, and for the next week he studied her closely. He asked seemingly idle questions of the girls— he won the boys' opinions upon divers subjects. He talked earnestly with Mrs. Reade, and flippantly with her husband, and in the end he mastered the problem. Once assured of this fact, he hastened in search of Evelyn, finding her in the library mending Betty's music.

See here, Evelyn—it I hadn't seen this thing with my own eyes 1 wouldn't have beliéved it. How old are you, anyhow?"” “Thirty-five."” “And far more beautiful today in that impossible gown you have on than either of your nieces! Go up and get into some of the floaty, fleecy clothes you used to wear. Put furs about your throat and wear a hat such as Barbara had on yesterday. Take her's if you haven't any of your own."” “ haven't,” she admitted with sud- den bitter distaste for the appropriate toque selected by Alicia for her that morning “Rouse up, Bvelyn, it is time this absurd farce ended. Do you realize what has happened to you? You have been submerged—the youth in this house has overwhelmed you.” “Oh, Gay!" she cried, touched and gurprised by his comprehension, ‘it 18 quite true-——they take my breath away But how did you ever guess it? No- body else ever did.” “Nobody else ever loved you as I do.
