CHAPTER TX. Belmont Comes Home

a MONTH later, travelling openly, two
~ people came ashore from the Oran boat
at Marscillcs, s,-an English gentleman, well
dressed, apparently wealthy, and his wife,
woman Of Spanish appearance.
Awaiting them was an elderly, gray haired
Englishman, prim, precise, legal looking,
dressed in black, obviously lawyer OF some
standing. He bowed as the two passengers
came up TO him.
well, Sandlands!" said the man who had
been Belmont of the Foreign Legion. 81 re-
ccivcd your lcttcrs-and drafts He
smiled. "You will never know how | needed
them" He offered his hand, and the old
lawyer shook it affcctionatcly.
MY Lord he said, this is a great mo-
mcnt for me. 1t has always been my wish
TO see you return and take up your rightful
position; it is what have worked for for
years. | had begun to fear that it would
never be. Your father understood at the
last that he had been harsh and autocratic.
He did what he could to put things right. |
will explain everything in due time.
Bclmont-or. as he had now become,
Lord Clcrcmont-slippcd his hand through
his wifc'S arm. Let me present YOU to
Lady Clcrcmont, Sandlands," he said, "to
whom owe a debt OF gratitude which | shall
never be able adequately to repay
His voice vibratcd strangely. It required
but little perception to see that the speaker
adorcd his wife TO the point OF sheer rever-
CnCc.
Pcrlita put out her hand to the old law
yer, in the pretty, unaccustomcd way of the
foreign woman who is learning the English
custom OF shaking hands.
MY husband" she said proudly in de-
liciouS broken English. "iS so generous that
he thinks too much OF the poor help | was
once able to give him"
Belmont laughed. THAT is what she al
ways says, SandlandS.
The old lawyer smiled. 1T is a matter
that YOU must settle between yourselves
and YOU have a lifetime to DO it in, he said
quietly.
~ lifetime will not be nearly long
enough" said Belmont and looked at his
wife. who smiled. Indeed, a lifetime was not
long enough to outlaSt a love such as theirs
"You return to England at once' asked
the lawyer.
Belmont nodded. AT once, he said.
Pcrdita slipped her hand through his arm
She was going to new land, a new home, to
new customs She who had been one Of the
least among the good women of Sidi Bel
AbbcS was going to a place where she would
be one of the first But it was without nerv-
BUSINESS, without hesitation, that she faced
the future; for her husband would be with
hcr-and all would be well. Perdita was
sure of that

BARBER SHOP
CLOSED BY LAW

p DEAL, n. j.. Dec. 17-Santa Claus
Nhiskers and Van Dyke boards will
be all the rage in Deal this winter,
although at present the mems anger
Us directed against citizens whose ac-
tion has deprived the town OF its only
Barber shop.
Arthur Mangaranello opened a shop
in Borough Hall. He did a rushing
business. and the percentage Of clean
shaven men in Deal greatly increased.
A clause In the deeds of all Deal prop
erty-owners restrains them from ever
nsing their properties for purposes Of
~frade, store or shop"
The barber thought he had evaded
this restriction when he opened his
shop in the public hall, but Vice
ChaDcellor Howell has sustained the
complaints Of residents, who shud-
dered to see the sanctity Of their resi-
dental town invaded by commercial
ism, and an injunction has been grant
ed compelling Mangaranello to close
up.
