CHAPTER X.

Katherine was just as much amazed
at meeting Hayes as he was at find
ing her at the door.
II didn't know you would be here"
Katherine apologized, otherwise l."
Bob's expression sllenced her. She
had never seen such an expression In
his eyes before. Katherine was radi-
antly beautiful today. She knew It.
More than that, she had taken par
ticular care to gown herself in an
exquisite afternoon dress of dull blue
a gown that had been draped accord
ing to her own fastidious design. But
In Bob's eyes there was no response
to her beauty or her clothes or her
poise He didn't even attempt to dis.
guise his disgust at her effrontery in
invading Mrs. SHADES retreat.
Il want to see Mrs. Slade," Kath-
crime finally announced.
Upon my world" his voice was
low, but hoarse. Il never heard of such
thing as your coming to this house.
What do you want here? Want to tell
that little woman you're after herr
What do you want here?"
"Will you kindly tell Mrs. Slade that
am here?" Katherines eyes we're

"All right. but do you think you had

she discovers Mary's entrance at

She looked questioningly, first at Kath'
crime. then at Hayes.

minutes" Hayes remarked. "I've got

Mary, very much pleased, but very
much In awe of the senator's daughter.
You called on me once before, but
/ had headache. I've often wished
since hadn't had it. Won't you take
off your things and sit down. It's very
kind OF you to call"
Katherine thanked her and sat
down. She had not expected to find
such sweet little woman In Mrs.
Slade. The woman was 80 little, SO
fragile, 60 harmless and helpless in
appearance. Even the old-fashloned
cottage made its appeal to the girls
sensitive spirit; the shabby furniture
gave her a vision of what SHADES ear
Tier life with this woman must have
been. Instead of her usual poise, she
found herself quite little ut loss
to know what to do or say before the
frank, sincere gaze of Shades wife.
The questions she had meant to blurt
out soon after her arrival remained
mutely on her lips. Instead she found
herself answering the questions that
Mary Slade was asking.
She found herself telling the woman
Of her own struggles against increas-
ing poverty talking of her own hopes
and ambitions.
MRS. Slade. ! don't say this Is
social call" Katherine found herself
aa frank as the woman at the other
side Of the table.

trouble, Miss Strickland" -

I'm not married, so I'm not quite
alone"
Merritt laughed good. naturedly, glad
at any kind of response.
Pardon me, Hayes" he cleared his
throat nervously. "pd like to talk with
Mrs. Slade."
"Oh, all right" and with his hands
thrust into his pockets, Hayes strolled

oninously quiet.
You're going to oppose the d.

YES came the soft answer.

and Mary raised her voice as her tenn

Hayes, hearing the loud tones, ap-
peared at the kitchen door munching
biscuit
How dare you'll" he heard Mary ex-
claim. you can't abuse my husband

Merritt looked once at Hayes and
once at Mary. Then he went.
Hayes stood taking large bites out
of the biscuit, looking at Mary with
an an led smile.

Mary sputtered. "But | wont let any

She Lad no sooner left the room
than knock came at the door. It
appeared to be Mary SHADES day "at

"Oh, the dew" muttered Rob as he
started toward the door. These

He opened the door abruptly. In
stead Of the gosslping neighbors he
had expected he was confronted by
