She did not mean to pose as a for
lorn widow. but she found herself
playing up to the part that the kind
hearted man assigned her. And when
he said "Ah, yes, poor girl, you have
had a great sorrow, | am sure, in the
death of your husband" she was sur
prised to find her eyes filing with sud
den tears at his sympathetic tones, and
she was seized with kind of self

n WEEK had passed since the Rob

herself bored to death. 1t was
a new experience to her, for although
lonely at times, she had always been
able to interest herself in her children,
her needlework or her books Now
since her taste of social life, the exist

thought of many of her women ac-
uuaintances whom she might ask to go
out to luncheon with her, or to accom-
pany her to the matinee in the after
noon, but the idea brought with 1t no
thrill,
She began to appreciate that when
woman has allowed herself to enjoy the
look of admiration in mans eyes, she,
unconsciously at first to herself, wants
to repeat the experience. But how
could she find way of meeting Robert
Maynard again?
She asked herself this question often,

maids evening out. went to the door

her guest-having partaken of the cake

switched off the lights
As she caught sight of her face in
the mirror in her own room she smiled
at the reflection. noting her bright eyes
and vivid coloring.
