Love’s Awakening The Heart Story of a Steadfast Woman By Adele Garrison Lillan, in Fine Fettle, Pinks Mr. Brixton in the First Word-Clash of the Loug-Dreaded Interview. “Where shail I talk to him?"” Lillian’s voice as she put the ques- tion, following the message I had brought her from Samuel Brixton held no tremor, and her face s composed. Patiently she had sum- moned the man whose coming she 50 unreasoningly had dreaded, and 1| drew a deep breath of relief as I saw that she was her old poised self with her perceptions keen, her judg- ment, sound. “In the library,” I said promptly. Where are the rest?” “Mary, Carolyn, Marion and Ron- ald are on the tennis court, playing Mr. Owen and Mrs. Brixton are watching them, as are Katherine and Junior. Mother Graham is reading on the balcony outside her room, and | Katie ig safely in the kitchen. 1 think, is in the barn.” She laughed = at my category as I meant her to do. “The library it i then.

Mr. Brixton shot a questioning glance toward me, as, after a pre- tense of adjustiug the shades, T sat down upon the couch upon which Lillian alrcady had placed herself. “I did not ask Helen to join us, Tillian," he began hesitatingly, “be- cause T thought it was your wish to see me alone.” Jim, meticulous | There’s no sign of Mr. Owen's | and then | window | | “You can take the button off the | rapier. now, Sam," Lillian said dryly. “There’'s no use of any pretense be- tween you and me, when there's none of your family around. 1 [ wouldn't have Helen present at this confab for anything you could name | —TI don't want her hurt it I can help it On the other hand do you ine for one second I'd talk to ou Wwith no third person present? fom did that, as you may remem- !ber. } Mr. Brixton's face, always florld, was a brick-red flush, and his eyes | glittered angrily as a prodded ani- might. 1 glanced sidewise at | Lillian, sitting alert and watchful |after having shot her bolt containing the name of her former husband. | Brixton's partner—and victim.

He put his hand up with an | apologetic gesture “Ploase forget that T said that, Lillian,” he said. *My letter was th truth, not what 1 said just now.
