 At that moment a Persian kitten came stalking across the lawn, paused irresolutely beneath the trees and then jumped into Alicia's lap.
 Teddy, you dear,' cried the girl, stroking the kittens white coat, you knew l wanted to tell you something about men, didn't you?"
 Kenworthy pricked up his ears
 Teddy" she went on confidentially, "all men are horrid-selfish and hor- rid. You can't trust any of them"
 Kenworthy smiled at the dog.
 Between you and me, Rajah," said he, II think the sum and substance of the whole matter is jealousy"
 Imagine my being jealous, Teddy" said the girl scornfully. "Who on earth would I be jealous of?''
 Il imagine it's the Bronson girl, Rajah," said Kenworthy.
 The Bronson girl goes automobil- ing quite frequently of late" said the girl to the kitten. And she's such a horrid little flirt! She boasted when she came here she'd have a spin in every car in town. 1 did think, Ted dy"- She stopped abruptly.
 By love, it is jealousy" said Ken worthy, forgetting to address his re- marks to the dog.
 "Didn't I tell vOu mon were horrid Teddy?' said Alicia. with much con- victlon.
 Kenworthy chuckled softly.
 Do you suppose she really cares if I did take the Bronson girl for a spin, Rajah?' he asked
 He was to come here at yester- day afternoon, Teddy" she said, Tt was half past | before he came. I'm glad he found such congenial compa- ny"
 See here, Rajah" said Kenworthy. "the explanation she refused to listen to I shall tell to you"
 Aren't men clever at explaining, Teddy" asked the girl, with sarcasm.
 You see" Kenworthy went on, pat ting the dog. "I started out in the car to run over here yesterday afternoon. When l got to the old Bassett place there was Jim Culver lying flat on the G.c---A ', sN that runahout of his.

 The girl stroked the kitten thought fully
 "It's very clever explanation" she unused.
 "The worst of it is, Rajah, she won't believe word of it,'' said he gloomily. "Im almost tempted to believe it, Teddy" said she.
 And if she does believe it she won't be sorry for the way she treated me-" he went on.
 "Pm almost tempted to he sorry" she said softly.
 And even if she is sorry she'll never care for me the way I've been trying for the past four years to have her care" he persisted.
 The girl held the kitten at arms length.
 Teddy" she said very softly, I'm almost tempted to- She stopped, flushing deeply.
 Kenworthy sprang from the ham, mock with a suddenness that precipi- tated Rajah to the ground
 "Alicia, Alicia" he cried. q dare you to finish that sentence"
 The girl dropped the kitten. She turned to Kenworthy, and her eyes met his bravely.

 By all the laws and the prophets of precedent Kenworthy should have made stormy exit at the height of the quarrel. In staying on when the 6nal word had been said and grim si- lence had succeeded the heated accu- sations and counter accusations he was guilty of an anticlimax. But Ken worthy was no respecter of precedent, and at present 1t mattered not a rap to him whether he was guilty of an anticlimax or not. He only knew that he was utterly miserable and that the fine view he had of Alicia's back turned to him with an obviousness not to be gainsaid-was in nowise encour- aging.
 He sat in the hammock, his face a study of contradicting emotions, gag ing abstractedly afield and pulling the silky ears of Rajah, the brindle bull terrier that lolled beside him. Twice he essayed to speak, but each time as he raised his eyes and caught sight of that uncompromising back the words died on his lips
 At length he looked down at the dog A whimsical smile curved his lips, and he looked grimly toward Alicia, who to all intents was interested in the distant landscape
 "Rajah, old boy" he said, addressing the dog, it strikes me that women are getting very unfair these days. They accuse chap of all sorts of things, and when he offers to explain they fly into fine dudgeon and turn their backs on him. They give him the maximum sentence without q trial"
 He glanced at the girl. She was quite unmoved The landscape was apparently quite as absorbing as ever. The back was certainly no whit less uncompromiSing
