For few moments Underwood w0s
too much overcome by emotion to
speak. Alicia brushed by in naughty
silence, not deigning to look at him.
All he heard was the soft rustic of
her clinglCg silk Gown as it swept
along the floor. She was incensed
with him, OF course, but she had
come. That was all he asked. She
had come in time to save him. He
would talk to her and explain every
thing and she would understand.
She would help him in this crisis as
she had in the past. Their long
friendship, all these years of intimacy,
could not end like this. There was
still hope for him. The situation was
rot as desperate as he feared. He
might yet avert the shameful end of
the suicide. Advancing toward her,

Underwood spoke soothingly, trying
to conCiliate her. Well he knew the
seductive power of his voice. Often
he had used it and not in vain but
tonight it fell on cold Indifferent
ears
Don't call me by that name" she
snapped,
Underwood made no answer. He
turned slightly paler and, folding his
arms, just looked at her, in silence.
There was an awkward pause.

that she contained herself. Now she
interrupted him hotly:

It's a lie!" broke in Underwood. II

never deceived you"
Alicia rose and, crossing the room,
carelessly inspected one of the pic
lures on the wall, study of the nude
by Bouguereau.
1--WE need not go into that" she said
haughtily. That is all over now. I
came TO ask you what this letter-this
threat-means. What do you expect
70 gain by taking your life unless I
continue to be your friend? How can
be friend to a man like you? You
know what your friendship for a wom-
an means. 1t means that you would
drag her down to your own level and
disgrace her as we'll as yourself.
Thank God, my eyes are now opened

He thought he had heard a woman's
voice-a voice he knew. Perhaps that
was only dream. He must have
been asleep some time, because the
lights were out and, seemingly, every
body had gone to bed. He wondered
what the noise which started him
could have been. Suddenly he heard
a groan. He listened intently, but all
was still. The silence was uncanny.,

ard cautiously groped his way about,
trying to find the electric button. He
had no idea what time it was. 1t
