The maid looked up wonderinsiy Al
the sudden huskiness in his voice.
@Yes. sir. Mrs. Carlton came in Just
as the postman did. She looked over
the mail, took letter, and gave me the
rest. Shall ask her about it. sir?"
Mono, I'll see her myself. That
will do, Suzan." The door closed after
her.
He bowed his head in his hands,
MARY, Mary-my poor wife"
She threw herself on her knees be-
side him "Oh, don't-don't-it is more
than can bear. 1t may not be too late
go to her at once-she mag not have
read it yeti" -
He started up and then stopped. There
was a hurried step and the rustic of silk
outside. She turned to him with fright
ened, questioning eyes. But he did not
see her; his face was turned toward the
door.
She threw herself on her knees be-
side him, "Oh, no-no-she must not
come in here! Oh, it would be too pitt
ful-you must not let it bel"
He did not move or speak. His eyes
were still on the door, and in his face
was infinite pity and tenderness for the
woman who was coming toward them.
The steps were very near-now they
were at the door. With a stihed cry
she slipped behind the heavy tapestry of
the window. There was a straining
sound from about of fixtures giving
away-she was bearing her whole weight
on the curtain. She relaxed her hold
and leaned back against the window for
support
The door opened.
Richard! Are you in here, dear? .?
Oh, Richard. Richard, my dear hus-
band" A quick rush, a glad little cry
and she was in his arms. 1T has Just
come-your letter, dear, your beautiful
letter! The most precious birthday
gift ever had. And yesterday was
wretched because thought you had for
gotten what day it was. And all the
time you were planning this Do you
know how happy it has made me? Do
you, dear? Oh, | don't think you can

sobbing. she hid her face against his
breast.
Mary Mary" he whispered huskily.
Don't, dear! You have just said you
were so happy"
oh, yes-yes-I am now. Because l
know you love me now-you could not
have written that letter unless you
loved me very dearly. But, on, I've been
heartsick for so long, Your love is so
much to met is all l have And
somehow for months l have felt that l
was losing it. Despair was creeping into
my heart. I'm not young any more
there is nothing in me to attract you

"All of it?"
"Yes, dear; all of It. My poor little

"And you think it is that? Oh, if it
were only that-if it were nothing more
than that! How you will despise me
when you i1nowl Oh, it was such hid

A moments intense silence. He was
leaning heavily against a desk, his eyes
fixed on small bronze lizard that lay
there.
"You-you-wrote to-to herr"
She WINGED at the last word as though
he had struck her.
"No, l did not write to her. 1t was
more hideous even than that. l sent her
one of your letters-one of your most
passionate love letters to me-" 3
Through the stiffness sounded the
rhythmic click of horses hoofs on the
asphalt OF the side street, and the faint
cry of street vender, distant, mournful
as a chant of the misericordia. =
IF to do that was in you heart, why
have you waited so !ong?" His voice
was strained and tense.
Il don't know. l think l have had it
in my thoughts for weeks, but always
crushed it down. Last night the jeal-
ousy and hatred and bitterness that
swept over me was too strong. That

nothing. 1t is of her you are always
thinking; it is she you are always most
anxious to protect.
Monday, when l thought l had lost
my purse with your last note in it, your
greatest anxiety was for her-the fear
that it might in some way reach her. You
were more concerned about the vaguest
possibility of its reaching her, than you
were about the almost certain shame
and disgrace it would have brought to
me. Surely in that case her hurt could
not be so great as mine. had every
thing to lose-everything. OH ! know
you were deeply anxious about me- too
you would have done everything in
your power to shield me; but that was
your second thought-your first was OF
her. 1t is always OF her.
And last night all my love for you
was concentrated into a great, burning
jealous hatred of her-this woman you
are always so anxious to shield, whose
happiness You place before everything
else l wanted to hurt her-to make
her suffer, too. took out your letters
and read one after another with fever
ish eagerness. l wanted to find the one
that would hurt her most. And then
came the thought that I would let fate
decide. Fate contrives more cruelty
than mere human planning. So looked
away and picked up the first letter l
touched. 1t was one you wrote on my
birthday last April. l made this copy

She took from her dress a crumpled
paper and laid it before him.
This will come to you on your birth
day, together with a locket, a little
heart-shaped trinket. which ! hope you
will like to wear for my sake But
whether you care to wear it or not, it

She nestled her face close against his.

and lips. A moment later the door
closed softly.
A sound OF sliding curtain rings graf
ed on the tense stiffness OF the room. A
rustic of a dress and Margaret with
white, strained face was standing beside
him, trying, with feverish, trembling
fingers to unfasten a locket from a chain
at her throat.
