on, poised and eXpectant, as il she were
only waiting an opportunity to take
farewell, took OH, in the light of her
look, the fantastic appearance Of a
final departure. I'm afraid" she mild
ly reminded them. that Shima an
nounced the carriage ten minutes ago"
"Oh, dear, I'm SO sorry!' Flora's eyes
waVered apologetically in the direction
of the waiting Japanese. Clara's flicker
of amusement made her hate herself
the momen it was out. She could al
ways depend IN herself when she knew
she was on exhibition. She could be
sure of the right thing if 1t were only
large enough, but she was still caught
at odd moments by the %trifies, the web
of a certain social habit into which she
had slipped, full grown on the smooth
surface of her fathers millions. Clara's
fleeing smile lit up these triflcs to her
now as enormous. 1t took advantage
of her small deficit to point out to her
more plainly thar ever to what large
blupders she might be liable when she
had cut loose from Clara's guiding, re-
minding, prompting genius, and chose
to confront the world without it.
To be sure, she was not to confront
it alone; but, looking at Harry, it came
to her with q moments qualm that she
did not know him as we'll as she had
thought.

stepped swingingly to the, pavement.
After all, she ought to be glad to think
that he was going to stand up
as tall and p%rotectingly between her
and the world, as now he did between
her and the press of people which,
like a tide of water, swept them for
ward down the hall, sucked them bach
in its eddy. and finally cast them,
ruffied like birds that have ridden a
storm. on the more generous space of
the wide, upward stair.
From here, looking down on the cur
rent sweeping past them, the little
islands of black coats seemed fairly
drowned in the feminine sea round
them-the flow of white, of pale blue
and rose, and the high chatter, like a
cage of birds, that for the evening held
possession.
Ladies night Harry Cressy
mopped his flushed face. ITS awful!'
Flora laughed in the effervescence
of her spirits. She wanted to know,
teasingly, as they mounted, II this were
why he had brought two more to add
to the lot. He only looked at her,
with his short note of laughter that
made her keenly conscious of his right
to be proud of her. She was proud of
herself, inasmuch as herself was shown
in the long trail of daring blue her
gown made up the stair, and the pow
derry blue of the aIgrette that shiv-
cred in her bright soft puffs and curls
proud that her daring, as it appeared
in these things, was still discriminate
ing enough to make her right.
She could recall a time when she had
not even been quite sure of her
clothes. Not Clara's subdued rustic
at her side could make her doubt them
now; but her security was still recent
enough to be sometimes conscious of
itself. 1t was so short a time since
all these talking groups, that made a
parsonage of her, had had the power to
put her quite out of countenance The
women who craned over their Shout
ders to speak to her-how hard she
had had to work to make them see her
at all! And now she did not know
which she felt more like laughing at.
herself or them. for having taken it
so seriously. For, when one thought
of 1t, wasn't it absurd that people out
of nowhere should suppose themselves
exclusive? And people out of nowhere
they were. herself and all the rest OF
them. From causes not far disslmilar
they had drlfted or scrambled to where
they now stood. 1t was a question OF
squatter rights. The first IN the
ground were dictators, and how long
they could mold their claim against in
vaders a dubious cast of fate. For
there were forever fresh invasions, and
departures; swift risings from OBJ
security, sudden fallings back into OBJ
hvion, brilliant shootings through OF
strange meteors; and in the tide OF
fuctuation, the things that were es-
tablished or traditional o this coast

she looked over the moving mass be-

but 1t persisted; for had not the Chat

bland, satisfied faces might not change
~shockingly at the whisper "Chatworth'
in its ear? She wanted to confide the
naughty thought to Harry. But no, he
wasn't the one. If Harry were ap-
~prehensive of anything at all it was
My of being caught in too hot a
crush He saw nc possibilities in the
mob below except boredom. He saw
no possibilities in the evening but his
conventional duty; and Flora could
read in his eye his intention of getting
through that as comfortably as pos
slble. His suggestion that they have
a look at the pictures brought the two
Women's eyes together in a rare CLEAN
of mutual mirth. They knew he sus-
pected that the picture gallery would
be the emptiest place in the club, since
to have a look at the pictures was
what they were all supposed to be
there for. That was so infallibly the
note Of their life, Flora thought, as she
ollowed up the wide sweep of the mid
die stair, and along the high-ceiled,
gilded hall whose open arches over
looked the rooms below.
The picture gallery was new, an adj
dition; and the plain, narrow, unex-
npntn6 hnnr In Chi alaa- vr,l,A~1 ~ ,,o-
high, arched, elaborate and fiourished,
was like a loophole through which to
slip into a foreign atmosphere. This
atmosphere was ~resinous of fresh
wood; the light was thick with drift
ing notes; the carpets harshly new,
slipping beneath the feet on the too
polished floor; the bare bones of the
place yet scarcely covered. But its
quiet was after all comparative. There
were plenty of people lingering in
groups in the centre of the gallery
which was dusky, eclipsed by the great
refiectors that circled the room, throw

the dusk to murmur together, van

mating abruptness hat Flora caught
herself guessing what sort of face,
where this nearest group stood just on
the edge of shadow, would pop out of
the dark next.
She was ready for something ex-
traordinary. but now, when it came,
she was taken aback by it. 1t gave
her a start, thar toss of black hair,
that long, irregular, pale face whose
scintillant, sardonic smile was merci-
lessly upon the poor, inadequate pic
ture-face fronting him. His stoop
above the rail was so abrupt that his
long, lean back was almost horizontal,
yet even thus there was something ele-
giant in the swing Of HMM the care

to the M behind him. The light

His broad smile of appreciation en-
vsloped her. ooh, you have a scent like
a bloodhound. You haven't let go of
that once since you started. He could
have done it-oh, %easy-but he went
out ten years ago"
"Died?" Flora's rising infection was
a lament.
Went over the horizon-over the
ranse. Believe he died in the col
onies."
"Oh," Flora sighed, then 1 shall have
10 fancy he has come back again, just
for the sake of the C%hatworth ring.
That wouldn't be too strange. It's all
so strange / keep forgetting it is real.
At least" she went on explaining her
self to Harry's smile, 1T seems as If
this must be going on a long way off,
as If it couldn't be SO close to us, as if
the ring L wanted SO much couldn't
really be the one hat has Disappeared -
ALI the while she felt Harry's smile en-
veloping her with an odd, ha~lf-protect-
ing watchfulness. but at the close of
her sentence he frowned a little.
We'll, perhaps we can find another
ring to take the place of it"
She felt that she had beer stupid
where she should have been most deli
cate. But you don't understand" she
protested, leaning far toward him as II
to coerce him with her generous
warmth. THE Chatworth ring was
nothing but a fancy I had. 1 never
thought of 1t for a moment as an en-
gagement ring!"
BY the light stir of silk she was
aware hat Clara had risen. She looked
up quickly to that odd look.
Clara's face was so smooth, so pol
ished, so %unruffied, as to appear almost
blank, but none the less Flora saw it
all in Clara's eye-a look that was not
new to her. 1t was the same with
which Clara had met the announce
ment of her engagement; the same look
with which she had confronted every
allusion to the approaching marriage;
the same with which she now surveyed
the mention of the engagement ring
a look neither approving nor dissent
ing, whose calm, considerable specula-
tion seemed to repudiate all interest
positive or negative in the approaching
event except the one large question,
s'W-hat is to become of me?" Many
times Clara had held it up before her,
moi as a question. certainly not as an
accusation: as a fiat assertion of fact;
but tonight Flora felt 1t so directly
and ifnperatively aimed at her that il

CHAPTER II.
A Name Goes Round a Table.

- OR tonight, from the he
had appeared, she had recognized
an unfamiliar mood in him, and
it had come out more the more they
had discussed the Chatworth ring. 1t
was not in any special word or action
On his part. 1t was in his whole pres
snce that she felt the difference, as IL
the afternoons scandal had been a
stimulant to him-not through its ro-
mantle aspect, as it had affected her,
but merely by the daring OF the theft
itself.
She wondered, as he hsaped her
ermine On her shoulders, if Harry
might not nave more surprises for her
than she had supposed. Perhaps she
had taken him too much for granted,
After all, she had known him only for
a year.
She herself was but three year old
in San Francisco, and to her new eyes
Harry had seemed an old resident thor
oughly established. So firmly estab-
lished was he in his bachelor quarters.
in his clubs, in the demands made upon
him by the city's society, that 1t had
never occurred to her he had lived any
where else. Nor had he happened to
mention anything of his previous life
until tonight, when he Ia given her,
in that mention of a London ball, one
flashing glimpse of former experiences.
Impulsively she summed up the posi-
bilities of what those might have been.
She gave him a look, ~incredulous, de-
lighted, as he handed her into the car
riage: She had actually got q thrill out
of easy-going, matter-of-fact, we'll
