At three o'clock sharp Preben Wem-
me, the young lawyer, closed his Of
flee and started for Cafe Bristol. He
sat down at one of the small tables
on the sidewalk and ordered a whisky
and soda and while he was slipping it
and looking at the passing crowd he
thought of his beautiful young wife.
whom he expected back today from
her summer holidays.
He had been married only six
months, and during the last four
weeks his wife had been away in the
country with her parents, who had a
small estate on the island of Fiunen.
During all these weeks he had been a
widower. or made believe he was.
Business cares had prevented him
from taking any vacation and go to
the country with his wife, SO he tried
to reward himself in other ways.
With a smile he thought of Lily and
Elsie and-well a couple Of other
young girls who had helped him to
pass the time and mako him feel the
longing for his wife less acutely.
But in spite OF all, there was not
the slightest doubt in his mind that
Karen, his wife. was the only woman
in the world for him, and he was
happy to think 1t was really unbear-
able to be without her much longer.
Preben Wemme had paid his whis-
ky and soda and was about to leave,
when he saw Lily coming across the
square. The clock in the Radius
Tower. was just striking four, and
Preben remembered that Karen's train
was not due for more than two hours
yet and he decided to spend these two
hours in Lily's company.
At five o'clock Preben Wemme and
Lily were sitting in the Central Cafe,
having dinner. Lily had felt SO terri
bly, hungry and there had been moth.
ing to do but to invite her.
Preben, of course, was to have din
ner at home together with his wife,
but he ordered dinner for two, new.
ertheless, for he felt just little hun.
cry himself and quite sure Of his alb
ility to dine twice.
At six o'clock he had had five cour
ses and half a bottle of claret and
was now at coffee. He lit a Henry
Clay perfecto and was feeling fine
though the thought of another Dime.
within an hour from now worried
him considerably.
Karen was standing at the door Of
