An exquisite sapphire set in a hoop Of
brass is selected. Harry urges her not to
wear it until it is reset. The possession

Flora. She becomes uneasy and appre-

CHAPTER XXI.
Clara's Market.

All night she sat awake huddled un-
der her greatcoat in the chilly dark
ness. She could not lie down, she
could not close her eyes. At long in
tervals she heard the tread of unshod
feet along the hall, and then she held
her breath lest at her slightest stir
they approached her door. Why, since
he wanted the sapphire, hadn't he
tried to get it from her when he had
had her unawares, upon her threshold
with the house asleep? It began to
seem to her as If he were waiting, as
if he were forced to wait, for some ap-
pointed moment. She knew II It were

reach processioned before her. Had
Clara already snapped the trap of the
law upon Kerr? And if she hadn't
yet, what could be done to hold her
off? Flora turned again to the tele-
phone. Slowly she took down the re-
ceiver and gave into the bright mouth
piece of the instrument the number of
her own house.
Presently the voice of Shima spoke
to her Mrs. Britton had gone out to
| dinner.
Tell her, Shima," Flora command
ed, tell her to come down on the
earliest train" She hesitated, then
finished in firm voice. Tell her not
to do anything until she has seen
me-"
Shima would tell her-but Mrs.
Britton had been out all day. He did
not know when she would be back.
The words sounded ominous in
Floras ears She turned away. Was
everything to be finished just as she
had light enough to move, but before
she had a chance?
The sound of spinning wheels on
the drive started her to fresh hope,
and sent her hurrying down the stair.
1t was the phaeton returning from the
last train. Through the open door she
saw the figure of Mrs. Herrick eXpec-
tant on the veranda. Then the car
rage came into the porte-cochere and
passed. With a rush she reached the
veranda, and stood there looking after
it. She wouldn't believe her eyes
she couldn't-that 1t had returned
again empty
Mrs. Herrick's voice was asking her,
What shall we do? Shall we serve
dinner now. or wait little longer?"
ooh, it's no use," Flora murmured,
"he won't come tonight. He'll never
come" She dropped against the tall
porch pillar.
my poor child" Mrs. Herrick took
her passive hand. If she read in the
profound encouragement of Flora's
face that something more had trans
pired than a mere non-appearance, she
did not show it, but waited, alert and
quiet, while they gazed together out
over the darkening garden.
They chung to each other, peering
timorously down the drive. A little
gust of wind took the garden, and be-
fore the trees had ceased to tremble
and whiten a man had emerged from
their shadow and was advancing upon

Flora's heart leaped at sight of him.
All her impulse was to fly to meet him,
but she felt Mrs. Herrick's hand tight
en- upon her wrist as If it OWNED her
madness.
His light stick aswing in his hand,
! his step free and incautious as ever,
gray and slender and seeming to look
more at the ground than at them, the
two women watched him drawing
near. His was the seeming of quiet
guest at the quietest of house parties.
| To meet him Flora saw she must meet
him on the high ground of his reserve.

I'VE were afraid we had missed you

Flora watched them meeting each
other so CALAMITY with a trembling

trusted her, was giving her hand in
sublime ignorance. 1t was vain that

other ways except for this one OBJ
session." she knew Mrs. Herrick sim
ply would have cried, Impossible, out
rageous!" Yet there they stood to
gether, and as Flora looked at them
she could not have told which was of
the finer temper. Kerr's bearing was
so unruffled that it seemed as if he
had flown too high to feel the storm
| Flora was passing through. But
when he turned toward her, in spite
of himself. there was eagerness in his
manner. He looked questioningly at
her, as If no time had interviewed, as
If moment before he had said to her
through the carriage window, Il will
give you "a hours" and now her time
had come to speak.
1t was the appearance of the
aproned maid that broke their unity.
The last course was on the table, the
last taste of its pungent fruit essence
on their tongues-and what was the
girls errand now? The eye of her
mistress was inquiring.
Some one has come, Mrs Herrick"
The woman's proper formula seemed
to fail her. She looked as if she had
been frightened.

asperity. What name?"
HE is coming in" AS she spoke
the girl shrank little to one side.
With his long coat open, hanging
from the armpits, with ruffied hair,
and lips apart, and from GREATNESS
ness a little smiling, Harry appeared
in the doorway. Kerr leaned forward.
Mrs. Herrick did not move. She was
facing the last arrival and she was
smiling more fexibly, more naturally,
than Harry; but it was Flora who
found the first word.
"You! II thought it was Clara"
She was struggling for nonchalance,
for poise, at this worst blow, so I'M
expected.
CLARA won't be down." Harry said,
advancing. How dye do, Mrs. Her
rick? How dye do, KERR"
"How dye do?" said the English
man, without rising.
Flora gripped the arms of her chair
to keep from springing up in sheer
nervous terror. A possible purpose in
Harry's coming, that even Mrs. Her
ricks presence would not defer, shot
through her mind. Was he alone? Or
were there others-men here for a
fearful purpose-waiting beyond in the
hall? But Harry had turned his back
upon the door behind him with a
finality that declared whatever dan
ger had come into the house was COM
plete in his presence.
I've dined, thanks" he said, but,
stripping off his greatcoat, accepted
a chair and the glass of cordial Mrs.
Herrick offered him. The ruddy, hard
quality of his face, we're it Invested
of its present smile, Flora thought,
might we'll have frightened the maid;
but, for all that, it was not so i'm
placable as Kerr's face confronting it.
The look with which he met the in
trusion had a quality more bitter than
the challenge of an antagonist, more
jealous than a mere lovers; and that
bitterness, that jealousy which was
between them came out stingingly
through their small pleasantness. 1t
could not be, Flora thought in terror,
that Mrs. Herrick intended to leave
these two enemies to each otherl Mrs.
Harrick had risen: and Flora follow

THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-Wheat prices
rose sharply today when confronted
with news of an advance at Liverpool
in the face of a decline yesterday on
this side of the Atlantic. Offerings
here were light and the demand fairly
general from commission houses. Re-
newed attention was given to reduced
estimates of the Argentine crop and to
the fact that cash prices kept firm in
all directions. The leading bull house
was credited, too, with having picked
up cheap the wheat that the crowd
threw overheard on yesterdays break.
Furthermore the Northwestern flour
mills were said to be all running as
strongly as possible to anticipate the
closing of transit on the lakes. Prices
here opened BQk to s@k higher with
May covering the extreme range at
1864 to 967s. There was a further gain
later to 97H.

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-The cotton
market opened steady at an advance of
5G1O points on overnight buying orders
and in response to steady cables. There
was no important bull support, how
ever, and after the early buying orders
had been executed the market turned
easier under local bear pressure and
renewed liquidation, with prices selling
off to a net loss of about 4@S points.
Trade interests were moderate buyers
on the decline, but there was very little
outside business, and local sentiment
appeared to be against prices, owing to
the absence of general business.
The market ruled about 10 to II
points under the closing figures of yes
terday during the late forenoon. A
better demand developed just above
141s cents for May, but was barely suf-
icient to steady the market, n COM
mission houses appeared to be liqui-
dating long cotton ahead of the gin
ners' report next Monday.
