gayly.
Karl was beginning to end his task
difficult. His attention wandered to
Olga.
Disappointment. Well, yes, who
has not been disappointed"
Elsa observed his growing inatten-
ton, his efforts to concentrate his
making. and she turned from him cold
ly. Meanwhile Millar and Olga were
having Il conversation in which Olga
was being torn on the rack of her jeal-
Gus emotions.
Millar nad brought her into the ante
room to show her Karl making love to
Elsa. Every circumstance favored his
design. Olga at first was disposed to
withdraw when she saw them.
Don't you think we should leave
the young people together?' she said.
You are too considerate," Millar re-
Piled cynically.
They seem to be growing fond of

"Ah, now | understand" he said.

Karl ignored him and turned to Elsa,

Elsa gave glance at the disappear
ing figure of Millar.
Il am awfully glad to be alone with
you. Elsa Karl said. You are the
one natural thing in the fetid, artificial
atmosphere. Don't you feel warm?"
Yes. as if some hot breeze were
blowing through this room. 1t stiles
me-"
You never spoke like that before"
Karl said.
His back was toward the ballroom
door, and he did not see Millar usher
Olga into the room. The man had
brought Olga that she might witness
the fulfillment of her plan and that he
might triumph in her jealousy and
further thwart them. Elsa saw them
come in and seat themselves across the
room.
There is Olga" she said, and she,
too, is jealous. Don't you want to
speak to her.?
II have seen her." Karl replied with
out turning around. Il would rather
talk with you. It's far more interest

"Why do you look around thenY'
Elsa said
Am l looking arouId? Karl asked
! Il wasn't aware of It,"
But even as he spoke he could not
help furtively CHANGING around to see
what Millar and Olga were doing. He
remembered the mans declaration in
the studio that afternoon, and he dis
trusted and feared him. He was be-

BY a sheer effort of will he forced
himself to turn to Elsa He resolved
that he would talk TO her; that he
would make love to her; that he would
marry her and Danish from his heart
those hateful emotions which Millar
had aroused. He leaned forward and
spoke of dove to the girl in low tones
while Elsa, with color coming and go

the woman she knew for her rival.

There was quite heavy rain storm
on the night of the 18th, accompanied
by heavy peals of thunder. The whole
sky was illumined with flashes of
lightning. Mrs. WV banks and three
children were in bed upstairs. AS
