Well, even If they had, hers was
still the strong position. The sympathy
of the disinterested outsider would
always be with her. II she had been
quarrelsome and ugly, those were
small matters. In the great essentials
she had not failed. Suppose she and

extending her hands as she had seen
an actress do in recent play. AS
she saw her pointed, pale face. her
expression Of worry gave way to one
of pleased complacence. She looked
pathetic, and her position was pa
thetic. Who would have the heart to
condemn her when they saw her and
heard her side of the story? Her spir-
its began to rise. With the first CLEAN
of returning confidence she shook off
her apprehensions. A struggle of
sunshine pierced the fog, and going
to the window she drew the curtains
and looked out on the veil of mist
every moment growing brighter and
thinner. The sun finally pierced 1t,
a patch of blue shone above. and drop
ping the curtains she turned and
looked at the clock. 1t was after elev-
take lunch with her sisters, who were
always ready to listen and TO sympa-
thize with her.
These sisters were the only intimate
friends and companions Bernlce had,
their home the one house to which
she was a constant visitor. With all
her peculiarities and faults she pos
sessed q strong sense Of kin. In her
rise to fairer fortune, If not greater
happiness. her old home had never
lost it's hold upon her, nor had she
weakened in a sort of cross-grained,
patronizing loyalty to her two sisters.
This may have been accounted for by
the fact that they were exceedingly
amiable and effectionate, proud to re.
gard Bernice as the flower OF the fam
lily, whose dizzy translation to unex-
pected heights they had watched with
unenvlous admiration.
Hannah, the oldest OF the family,
was the daughter of first marriage.
She was now spinster of forty-tive,
and had taught school for twenty
years. Hazel was the youngest OF the
three, she and Bernice having been
the offspring of Danny VERSIONS sec
ond alliance with a woman OF roman
tic tendencies, which had no way Of
expressing themselves except in the
naming Of her children. Hazel, while
yet in her teens, had married clerk
in jewelry store, called Josh McCrae.
1t had been a happy marriage. After
the birth Of daughter, Hazel had re-
turned to her work as saleslady in a
fashionable millinery. Both sisters.
Josh, and the child, had continued to
live together in domestic harmony, in
the house which Hannah. with the
savings of a quarter Of a century, had
finally cleared Of all mortgages and
now owned No household could
have been more simply decent and
honest; no family more unaspiringly
content. In such an environment Ber-
nice, with her daring ambitions and
bold unscrupulousness, was like that
unaccounted-for blossom which in the
floral world is known as sport"
But it did not appear that she re-
garded herself as such. With the ex-
ception Of a year spent in Los An
geies and Chicago she had been a
member of the household from her
childhood till the day of her marriage

and the butts and ashes OF cigars
Dominick had been smoking the eve
ming before lay In tray on the center
table. She noticed none of these things,
which under ordinary circumstances
would have been ground for scolding,
for she was woman of fastidious per-
sonal daintiness. A cushioned seat
was built round the curve of the bay
window, and on this she sat down,
drawing back the fall Of thick ecru
lace that yelled the pane. Her eyes
were fastened with an unwinking fix
ity on the fog-drenched street with
out; her figure motionless.
Her outward rigidity of body con-
cealed an intense inward energy OF
thought. 1t suddenly appeared to
her as If her hold on Dominick, which
till yesterday had seemed so strong
that nothing but death could break 1t,
was weak, was nothing. 1t had been
rooted in his sense Of honor. the sense
that she fostered in him and by means
of which she had been able to make
him marry her. Was this sense not
so powerful as she believed, or
dreadful thought!-was 1t weakening
under the friction of their life to-
gether? Had she played on it too much
and worn 1t out? She had been so
sure of Dominick, so secure IL his
blind, plodding devotion to his duty!
She had secretly wondered at it, as
oh ,to iCti IN hat =
tunate he possessed. Deep in her
heart she had a slight, amused con-
tempt for it, a contempt that had ex-
tended to other things. She had felt
it for him in those early days of their
marriage when he had looked forward
to children and wanted to live quietly,
without society, in his own home. 1t
grew stronger later when she realized
he had accepted his exclusion from
his world and was too proud to ask
his mother for money.
And now! Suppose he had gone
back to his people? A low ejaculation
escaped her, and she dropped the cur
tain and pressed her hand, clenched
to the hardness of stone, against
her breast.
The mere thought of such a thing
was intolerable. She did not see how
she could support the idea OF his
mother and sister winning him from
her. She hated them. They were the
ones who had wronged her. who had
excluded her from the home and the
riches and the position that her mar,
riage should have given her. Her re-
taliation had been her unwavering
grip on Dominick and the careful dis
cretion with which she had comport-
ed herself as his wife. There was no
ground of complaint against her. She
had been as quiet, HON excepting and
dutiful woman as any in California.
She had been a. good housekeeper,

small means. 1t was only within the
last year that she had, in angry spite,
run into the debts with which she had
tainted him. No wife could have
lived more vigorously up to the letter
of her marriage contract. 1t was easy
for her to do it. She was not a wom-
an whom light living and license at
tracted. She had sacrificed her honor
to win Dominick, grudgingly, unwil-
lingly, as close-fisted men part with
money in the hope of rich returns.
She did not want to be his mistress,
but she knew Of no other means by
