CHAPTER II.-continued.

The picture gallery was new, an adj
dttion; and the plain, narrow, unex-
pected door in this place, where all
was high, arched, elaborate and -four
4shed, was like a loophole through
which to slip into a foreign atmos-
phere. This atmosphere was resinous
OF fresh wood; the light was thick
with drifting notes; the carpets
harshly new, slipping beneath the feet
on the too polished floor; the bare
bones Of the place yet scarcely COW
cred. But its quiet was after all COM
parative. There were plenty of people
lingering in groups in the center of
the gallery, which was dusky, eclipsed
by the great ref1ectors that circled
the room, throwing out the pictures in
q bright band of color around the
walls. People leaning from this Dor
der of light back into the dusk to
murmur together, vanished and reap
peared with such fascinating abrupt
ness that Flora caught herself guess
ing what sort of face, where this
nearest group stood just on the edge
of shadow, would pop out Of the dark

She was ready for something ex-
traordinary, but now, when it came,
she was taken aback by it. 1t gave
her start, that toss of black hair,
that long, irregular, pale face whose
scintillant, sardonic smile was merci-

above the rail was so abrupt that his
long, lean back was almost horizontal,
yet even thus there was something
elegant in the swing of HMM the
careless twist of his head, around to
speak to the woman behind him. The
light above struck blind on the glass
in one eye, but the other danced with
a genial, mad scintillation. The light
of it caught like contagion, and
touched the merest glancer at him
with the spark of its warm, ironic
mirth. The question which naturally
rose to Flora's lips-''Who in the
world is that?"-she checked; why,
she didn't ask herself. She only felt
as she followed Clara, trailing away
across the floor, that the interest of
the evening which had promised so
well, beginning with the Chatworth
ring, had been raised even a note
higher Her FESTIVE fancy was begin
ming again. All the footlights of her
little secret stage were up.
Clara turned to the right, following
a reckoning fan, and Flora, dallying
with her anticipation, reasoned that
now they must circle the room before
they should face him-the interesting
apparition. 1t was a pilgrimage of

smiling recognitions to Clara, to Flora,
to Ella, smiled with a sharpened in
terest. 1t proclaimed that Kerr was
stranger, and, in circle which
found itself little stale for lack of
innovations, a desirable one
Apparently the dominant note of
their party was Elias clamorous Sc
lection for the supper; but to Flora
the more real thing was the atmos-
phere of excitement and mystery she
had been moving in all the evening.
She was pursued by the obsession of
something more about to happen
something imminent = though, of
course, nothing would; at least, how
could anything happen here, to them?
And by them" she meant herself
and these people around her so stupid
ly talking-the eternal repetition of

light! She wondered if her obsession
was all her own-or did it reach to
one of them? Certainly not Ella; not
Judge Butler, settled into his collar,
choosing champagnes. Clara? She
had to skip Clara. One never knew
whether Clara had not more behind
her smooth prettiness than ever she
brought to light? Kerr? Perhaps.
With him she felt potentialities
enormous. Harry? Never. Harry
was being appealed to by all the wom-
en- who could get at him as to his part
in the affair-what had been his SEN
sations and emotions? But Flora
knew perfectly we'll he had had none.
He was only oppressed by the atten-
ton his fame in the matter, and the
central position of their table, brought
him. Protesting, he made his part as
small as possible.
ooh, confound it, if l can't get at
my oysters!" he complained, leaning
back into his group again with a
sigh.
"You divide the honors with the
mysterious unknown, eh?" Kerr in
quired across the table.
Hang it, there's no division! I'd
offer you a share!" Harry laughed,
Kerr could have made of it.
"Purdie'd like to share something"
Butler vouchsafed. Hes been paw

judge looked around on the silence.

But I thought Harry'd told you. The

1t had the effect of startling them
all apart, and then drawing them
closer together again around the table,
over the uncorked bottles.

ring is a celebrated thing. It's the

as if that in itself explained every
thing, but the three women, at least
were blank.

"The stones were only sapphires."
Kerr smiled at the measure Of

After years of effort to spread the

of the full-blooded Hawaiian is his

Woman's Home Companion for July.
There are many reasons for this
greater susceptibility For one thing
weaning has iuat been accomplished, and
the bsby's system must become ad-
justed to the more severe strain inn
posed by artificial food; then, too, the
protective forces have not besn IN such
