In love again, and this time the matter
seemed serious. His letters had been
full of il. Miss Nincent's name ap-
peared continually. Her charms were
sung with ardor; but il appeared that
she was capriclous and rather difficult
TO understand. Marcia thought that
Fred needed advice: woman's dspas-
sionate inspection and opinion would
be of value. So she wrote and told Fred
TINT she would join him at his mothers
house for "a few weeks; thus she could
give him the benefit of her experience
and judgment, because after all (and in
spite of one or two silly incidents in
her life) she was wiser than Fred as
well as being year his senior. Fred
responded cordially TO her suggestion,
adding with solemnity that his person
al affairs were approaching a crisis.
On arriving at the house, which was
in the neighborhood of Sloane street,
Marcia found letter waiting her in the
hall. She opened il eagerly and read:
"rm going TO meet her tonight. II
can shall. Please sit up for me"
"Oh, / do hope she's nice!" said
Marcia with pang of fear and doubt.
She wished that she had come in time 20
offer counsel.
When she had dined she betook her
self to Fred's sanctum, and fell into
large armchair In front OF bright lit
tie fire. Now she was in more hope
full mood and found herself wishing
success to Fred. Marriage was good
condition, she reflected. She became
rather forlorn when she thought how
lonely her own life had been for the last
Ave years; there was nothing wrong in
dreaming how different il might be-
come II she happened to meet--weli,
under other conditions. Then, by a
sudden and fantastic trick of memory
the face of Noel Forester seemed TO ap
pear for n moment before her eyes.
How handsome he was, And really his
manners were very fascinating. Under
other influences Marcia sighed,
smiled and leant back. raising her eyes
to Fred's mantelpiece.
Had there been bystander he would
have seen strange and alarming alter

rigid fashion, advanced 10 the mantel-

"Oh!" and stretched out her hand. a

for many moments she scanned the
handsome face. Surely she was wrong!
But hope refused to come 10 her call.
She was sure--and she was right. The

memory. How came the thing here?

PART ".


Having done thorough justice to his
breakfast, Fred was eager 10 start; his
bicycle was itself again and he painted
for action. Mr.. Forester offered no
opposition. Marcia knew well how
anxious he must be To get them away;
any moment might reveal the secret
to which she was such an unwilling
party. And how gladly she herself
would turn her back on the house. Yet
Noel Forester was so kind and atten'
tive. so prodigal in his offers of guild
ance, of escort, and Of provisions, that
in her heart she could not help being a
little sorry for him. Under other cir
cumstances, freed from bad influences
and bad surroundings, how nice he
might have beenl So she thought as, in
n final visit 10 that hateful blue room,
she put on her hat; then she came
downstairs to rejoin the men. AS she
appeared Fred cried:
'Ah, here's my sister-in-law Come
along, Marcia"
She came slowly; Fred. in the ardoI
of youth, ran 10 his bicycle and pre-
pared 10 mount Noel Forester took

was rosy-colored. Marcia did not know
what TO say, what to do, how to look.

"The moment she'd-she'd said yes.

some fool. But I'm going TO lunch with
her tomorrow. You must come and
see her soon. Marcia. She's simply the
most beautiful!--Oh. but there she is
on the mantelpiece, you can see for
yourself"
Marcia could see, and had seen, for
herself.
'I've often spoken to her about you.
She seems SO interested in you" said
Fred, beaming broadly. "She'd always
rather talk about me and my people
than about herself"
Marcia was not surprised at that.
Some subjects are difficult.
I'm fact, L don't believe she's got
many people"
Marcia thought that was very likely
the case, or anyhow that she would
very likely say SO.

"39 Tangent Terrace-a jolly little

"Yes. don't suppose she'd let him

Marcia as she went TO bed. 'Wcil,
she'll have a visitor she doesn't expect
o-morrow-and before lunch!" For
the ardor of battle was on Mrs. Nettle-

barefaced; she must be taught lesson.
