her so with his own lips. AS she hur-
ried on the thought that this was the
woman he had bound himself to for
the rest of his life mingled with
the other more poignantly-hateful
thoughts, with a last sickening sense
of wretchedness. The sudden, aghast
consciousness of chaos, of an abrupt
den olishing of the pleasant, familiar
settings of life that never comes to
some, came to Rose that evening as
she ran home through the fog.
She entered the house noiselessly
and sped up to her room. 1t was time
to dress for dinner, and an old wom-
an-servant who had once been her
nurse was waiting to help her. The
mistress and maid were on terms of
affectionate intimacy and the progress
of the toilet was generally enlivened
by gossip and laughter. Tonight the
girl was singularly silent, responding
with monosyllables and sometimes not
at all to the remarks of her assistant.
AS the woman drew the fastenings Of
the dress together, she could feel that
the body the gown clipped so closely
quivered, like the casing Of machinery,
vibrating to powerful conclusions
within
The silence that continued to hold
her throughout dinner passed unno-
ticed, as Gene was there and enlivened
the passage of the meal by contrib
uting an almost unbroken stream Of
talk. The night before he had been to
play, the plot of which, and its de-
velopment in four acts, he now related
with fullress of detail which testi-
fled to the closeness of his attention
and the accuracy Of his memory. AS
each course was removed from the
table, and the young man could once
! more give his undivided attention to
the matter of discourse, he leaned
back in his chair and took up the
| dropped thread with fresh zest and
some such remarks as:
I'm the beginning of the next act,
| the hero comes in with his hat on,
and first he says"-and so on.
With each of these renewals of the
narrative the Bonanza King subsidized
against his chair-back in a limp atti-
tude, staring with gloomy fiXity at his
boy, and eXpelling his breath in a long
audible rush of air, which was some
times a sigh and sometimes ap-
preached the proportions of a groan.
At the end of dinner, when Gene
announced his intention of leaving as
he was to attend vaudeville perform
ance, the old man began to show signs
of reviving animation, going so far as
politely to ask his son where he was
going and with whom. His manner
was marked by warm, hearty encour'
| agement, as he said:
Get the whole vaudeville program
down by heart, Gene, and you can tell
it to us tomorrow night. Therell be
about swelve parts to it, and Rose can
order two extra courses for dinner,
and we might hire some men with
stringed instruments for an accom-
paniment."
Gene, with innocent good-humor, re-
sponded gaily:
"All right. father, I'll give it my best
attention, and if there's anything es-
pecially good, I'll report to you. You
and Rose might like to go some night"
His father, disappointed that his
shaft had made no impression uEon

wife, but forbid all that. and I'm 60
ing to send you back to prison. l
can't seem to believe that it's my
Rosey who's saying that and who's SO
hard and inhuman."
Rose turned from the fire. He
noted an expression almost of auster-
ity on her face that was as new to
him as the revelation of obstinacy and
Indifference to his will she had shown
tonight.
Papa, you don't understand what
feel It's not what you want, or what
l want, or what Dominick wants. It's
not what's going to please us and
make us comfortable and happy. It's
/ something that's much more impor-
tant than that. | can't make Domi-
nick happy and let him make his life
success at the expense of that wom-
an. / can't take him out Of prison. as
you call it, because he's got re-
sponsibility in the prison, that he vol
UNFAIRLY took on himself, and that
he's got to stand by. A man can't
stay by his marriage only as long as
it's pleasant. He can't throw down
the woman he's made his wife just
because he finds he doesn't like her.
II she's been disagreeable that's
misfortune, but it doesn't liberate him
from the promises he's made"
"Then you think when man like
Dominick Ryan, hardly more than a
| hA, ,{ctn 10 hot y-,,;p hfo
life, he's got to stay by it?"
Yes, he must He's given solemn
promise. He must keep it. Mistake
or sin doesn't matter"
The old man was silent. He had
presented his case as strongly and per.
suasively as he knew how, and he had
lost it. There was no longer any use
in arguing with that unshakable FEM
mime obstinacy rooted, not in reason
but in something rock-like, off which
the arguments of reason harmlessly
glanced. He had dim, realizing sense
that at the bottom of the woman's IL.
logical, whim-driven nature, there was
that indestructible foundation of
blind, governing instincts, and that in
them lay her power.

turning to knock off the long ash on
his cigar. 81 guess there's no use.
Rosey, for you and me to try to come
to an agreement on this matter"
mo, there isn't. And don't let's
talk about it any more" She turned
from the fire and came toward him.
But you must promise me one thing
that that woman is to be let alone.
that no one-you or any one you have
any control over-makes any more Of
fers of money to her."
She came to a stand beside his
chair. He wanted to hold out his
hand to her as was his custom when
she stood near him, but he was afraid
that she might not take 1t.
"Yes, can promise that" he said.
"Ill not offer her any more money.
don't want to see her again. God
knows"
1t was an easier promise to make
than Rose guessed. The old man, un.
der an air of mild concurrence in her
demands. experienced sensation of
cynical amusement at the thought that
the first move for reopening of nego-
tiations must come from Berny.
"Oh, yes, I'll promise that" he said
amicably. "You needn't be afraid that
