HERE was Jane? I had sent her to the telephone, With lightning the. thought: She had tele- W phoned Lucius Hemming. I was immediately as sure of it as | though I had overheard every word. | Since his divorce Hemming had been living downtown at one of bis clubs, aad so was easily reached, “But why bad she done it?” I asked myself as I stood hesitating in the deserted corridor, Surely her jealousy, her dislike of Miss Reese would not leave my nurse to another physician, when she had injured herself in my house. It was preposterous, She must have preferred Hemming’s society, and had gladly taken the chance the accident gave her. The house was dark as I made my way to my seat. When the lights came on the first person I saw was Jane sitting in box with Luch Hemming and a gay party, none of whom I knew. She was talking and laughing with the greatest animation, and, as I looked at her I felt a tightening of the throat as unpleas- lamd as it was unusual. She was mine, my wife, yet she was looking at another man in a way she had not looked at me for months—yes, years. Could it be that she really cared for | Lucius Hemming? No, it couldn't be | possible, I fatuously decided just as Hemming spied me, and, pleasantly, motioned me to join them, at the same time drawing Jane's at- tention. As room was made for me after introductions, Hemming remarked: “You will forgive us, doctor, for taking Mrs. Butterworth away, but just as we came in the lobby we met her, and seeing she was alone, r- sunded her to join us, She told “us | that your coming was uncertain.
