He's eight-and-twenty, ma'am; and

Wnen the letter already covered ten

the last one was not yet dry.

only a side-shOw."
The letter that had been torn up
before Il was finished was to have
gone to Lady Maud, but Margaret her
self had been almost sure that she
would not send 1t, even while she was
writing.
She had written that she had done
very wrong in engaging herself to Lo-
gotheti; that was the "wickedness"
she accused herself of, repeating the
self-accusation to her astonished maid,
because it was a sort of relief to say
the words to somebody. She had writ
ten that she did not really care for
him in that way; that when he was
near she could not resist a sort Of
natural attraction he had for her, but
that as soon as he was gone she felt
1t no longer and she wished he would
not come back; that her ideal of a
husband was so and so, and this and
that-and here fiction had begun, and
she had put stop to it by destroying
the whole letter instead of crossing
out a few lines-which was pity; for
il Lady Maud had received it, she
would have told Mr.. Van Torp that he
needed no help from her since Mar
garet herself asked 10 better than to
be freed from the engagement.
Logotheti did not come out to Yer
sailles that afternoon, because he was
plentifully endowed with tact where
women were concerned, and he ap-
piled all the knowledge and skill he
had to the single purpose of pleasing
Margaret. But before dinner he tele-
phoned and asked to speak with her,
and this she could not possibly refuse.
Besides, the day had seemed long, and
though she did not wish for his pres
ence she wanted something indie
scribable, mysterious something which
disturbed her and made her feel I'M
