She leaned toward ‘him; her other arm stole around his neck. “But I don’t want him to come back!" she cried. Dominey sat fer a moment motionless, like a figure of stone.

And then another and sharper | dnterruption—the stopping of a taxicab outside, the firm, insistent ringing of the front doorbell. Recollection came to Dominey, and @ great strength. The fire which had up within him was thrust back. is response to her wave of passion was infinitely tender. “Dear Rosamund,” he said, “that front doorbell summons me to rather an important interview. Will you please trust in me a little while longer? Believe me, I am not in any Way cok. I am not indifferent. There is something which you will have to be told—something with which I never reckoned, something which is beginning to weigh upon me night and day. Trust me, Rosa- mund, and wait!” She sank back tn her chair with a piquant and yet pathetic little grim- ace. “You tell me always to wait,” she complained. “I will be patient, but you shall tell me this. You are so kind to me, You make or mar my life. You must care a little? Please?” He was standing up now. He kissed her hands fondly.

HERE was matic, in the most lurid sense of the word, about the brief telephone message which Dominey received, not so many hours later, from Carlton House Terrace. In a few minutes he was moving through the streets, stHil familiar, yet already curiously changed. Dominey, avoiding acquaintances as far as possible, his own mind in a jeurious turmoil, passed down St. | James's Street and along Pall Mall land presented himself at Carlton House Terrace. Externally, the | great white building, with its rows lof flower boxes, showed no signs of | undue perturbation. Inside, however, lthe anteroom was crowded with | callers, and it was only by the inter- |vention of Terniloff's private secre- |tary, who was awaiting nim, that Dominey was able to reach the inner |sanctum where the Ambassador was busy dictating letters.
