Alonzo 2. Swobe, a portly captain of
industry, was doing at early electric
light in an armchair near the library
desk, an evening paper lying at his
feet, where 1t had fallen from his re-
laxed fingers. Amid the jumbled mis-
cellany on the desk was a little cairn
of unopened letters, the evening mail.
Miss Vivien Swobe. after mysteri-
opsly studying the situation through
slight parting Of the arras. entered
the room and walked to the desk. Miss
Swobe never glided. but her walking
was an act of grace. and her footballs
were light as drifting rose leaves.

had often informed her to that effect
The girl noiselessly sorted the un-
opened letters, isolating two ad-
dressed to herself and oneo addressed
to her father. The latter bore for
eign stamp and the impress Of coat
of arms. This letter she quietly slit
open and. after cautious glance at
its browsing owner. proceeded to read.
At the end she compressed her lips
into thin, crimson Cupid's bow that
looked as II 1t might be capable OF
throwing extremely sharp and rank
ling arrows.
The lovely adventures (for 30 the
act proclaimed her) secreted the pur-
loined letter in whatever cul-de-sac of
her silken dinner gown the gallery
may elect to be the most alluring, and
walked-treading on gossamer-to her
fathers side, drew up hassock and
sat down with an elbow on the arm Of
his chair. fitting her mouse-mantled
head until cheek rested on his knee,
her face turned from him. So soon
as she had got herself comfortable in
this position she reached out a hand
and pinched the slumberer's left ankle.
She was his only child and he still
called her baby"
At the psychological moment that
the old gentleman opened his eyes
with mild start his clinging daugh-
ter uttered subdued but broken
hearted little sob. Mr.. Swobe re-
mained motionless. stupidity staring at
the mousey head on his knee. Vivien
did not sob again, but now and then a
longdrawn, hopeless sigh escaped her.
"Vivien. little girl. what's the mat
teri"
Nothing, poppy"
He put out caressing hand on the
mousey tresses.
Yes, there is, grille. Sit up now
and tell me all about It,"
Vivien looked up at him with wet,
brown eyes. and her sad little smile
cut him to the heart.
Tell me, baby
She sprang lightly to her feet and let
him take her into his arms as he
would child.
It's nothing. poppy" she purred
again. Il Just get cry-ey sometimes
and can't help 1t. The duke is coming
tomorrow. isn't he. poppy"
He tried to twist his head around
to look into her face. his own sudden
ly hardening: but the velvet cheek
clung and swerved with his.
Yes. the Puritania should be in to-
morrow" he said. speaking less ten
derly than before. Il hope, vivien,
