quently characterized them.
He had sneeringly dispensed with
Gerald; he had shouldered Fame and
Harmon out of his way when they
objected to the purchase of Neer-
CARDS acreags adjoining the Siowitha
preserve and its incorporation as an
integral portion of the club tract; thus
he was preparing to rid himself of
Ruthven for another reason. But he
was not yet quite ready to spurn Ruth
ven, because he wanted a little more

on a secure footing among those of
the younger set where Ruthven, as

Already the familiarity OF his ap-

sanction his presence. Two minor

swallowed him. Gard rooms welcomed

Ruthven, languidly settling himself
once more among the cushions. "And,
by the way" he added, "there's law
bylaw, something or other-that I
understand may interest you"-he
looked up at Neergard, who had sunk
back in his chair-"about unpaid as
sessments."
Neergard now for the first time was
looking directly at him.

It," said Ruthven blandly, "as they've
seen fit to take advantage of the-ah-
pportunity-under legal advice. You'll

He looked at Ruthven, scarcely see
ing him. Finally he gathered his thick
legs under to support him as he rose,
stupidity, looking about for his hat.
Ruthven rang for a servant. When
he came, Neergard followed him with
out word, small eyes vacant, the
moisture visihle on the ridge Of his
nose, his red, blunt hands dangling as
he walked. Behind him a lackey
laughed.
In due time Neergard, who still
spent his penny on morning paper,
read about the Orchil ball. There were
three columns and several pictures.
He read every item, every name, to
the last imbecile period.
Then he rose wearily and started
downtown to see what his lawyers
could do toward reinstating him in a
club that had expelled him-to find out
If there remained the slightest tracs of
chance in the matter. But even as
he went he knew there could be none.
There was a new pressure which he
was beginning to feel vaguely hostile
to him in his business enterprises
bitches in the negotiations of loans,
delays, perhaps accidental, but annoy
ing; changes of policy in certain firms
who no longer cared to consider acre
age as investment, and q curiously
yelled antagonism to him in a certain
railroad, the reorganization of which
he had dared once to aspire to.
And one day, sitting alone in his Of
fee, clerk brought him morning pa
per with one column marked in a big
blue penciled oval
1t was only about Gerald Enroll and
Gladys Orchil; who had run away and
married because they happened to be
in love, although their relatives had
prepared other plans for their sep
arate disposal. The column was full
one, the heading in big type-a good
deal of pother about boy and a girl,
after all, particularly as 1t appeared
that their respective families had de-
termined to make the best of 1t.
1t took Neergard all day to read that
column. Then he went home with
a mental lassitude that depressed him
and left him drowsy in his great arm
chair before the grate-too drowsy and
apathet1c to examine the letters and
documents laid out for him by his sec
retary, although one Of them seemed
to be important-something about
alienation Of affections, something
about yacht and Mrs. Ruthven, and
a heavy suit to be brought unless 9TH

to Mr.. Ruthven.
