 Why do you ask?" was her inquiry When 1t was too late she wished she had not uttered the words. He had caught the somewhat anxious note in her voice.

 The young man drew a chair up to the table and began the task of work ing out the puzzle that now seemed more or less near to solution He had pretty clear idea as to the period he wanted to investigate. To the best of his recollection, the Studios published three or four years back held the key. He selected the numbers and began to run through them. He was search ing for a vaguely remembered article on one of the lesser-known English painters who had given great promise at the time it was published but who dropped completely out of notice soon afterward because of a mistaken no ton of his own importance. If Booths memory served him right, the fellow came cropper so to speak in i trying to ride rough shod over public i opinion, and went to the dogs He 1 had been painting sensibly up to that ! time but suddenly went in for the most violent style of impressionism J That was the end of him.

"I say, Leslie, Is she staying here?" cried Booth, lowering his voice to an excited half-whisper.
 'Who?" demanded Wrandall va cantly. His mind appeared to be else where.
 Why, that's the girl I saw on the road Wake up! The one on the envelope, you ass. Is she the one you were telling me about in the club-the Miss Whats Her Name who"

 Booth flushed. ''It Is an impression, that's all. I drew 1t from memory, 'pon my soul"
 She'll be immensely gratified, I'm sure.'
 For heavens sake, Les, don't be such fool as to show her the thing" cried Booth in consternation "Sha'd never understand"
 "Oh, you needn't worry. She has a fine sense of humor."
 Booth didn't know whether to laugh or scowl. He compromised with him. self by slipping his arm through that of his friend and saying heartily
 '1 wish you the best of luck, old boy"

 Amazingly like you," he declared with conviction.
 She turned the page He was watch. ing her closely As she looked upon the sketches of the half-nude figure a warm blush covered her face and neck. She did not speak for a full minute, and he was positive that her fingers frightened their grasp on the magazine
 She nodded her head
 "Hetty Glynn, I am sure" she said. after pause, without lifting her eyes. Her voice was low, the words not very distinct
 He drew long breath, and she look. ed up quickly What he saw in her honest blue eyes convicted her
 Sara Wrandall came into the room at that moment. Hetty hastily closed the magazine and held it behind her. Booth had intended to show the re- production to Mrs. Wrandall but the girls behavior caused him to change his mind. He felt that he possessed secret that could not be shared with Sara Wrandall. then or afterward Moreover. he decided that he would not refer to the Hawkright pictures again unless the girl herself brought up the subject. All this flashed through his mind as he stepped forward to | greet the newcomer.
 When he turned again to Hetty, the magazine had disappeared. He never saw 1t afterward, and, what is more to the point, he never asked her to pro- i duce It.
 He thought hard over the situation. l The obvious solution came to him: i She had been at one time reduced to 1 the necessity of posing. a circumstance evidently known to but few and least of all to Sara Wrandall, from whom the girl plainly meant to keep the truth This conviction distressed him, ] but not in the way that might have been expected He had no scruples 1 about sharing the secret or in keeping l it inyiolate; his real distress lay in the fear that Mrs Wrandall might hear of all this from other and per haps ungentle sources. As for her pos ing for Hawkrisht, 1t meant little or nothing to him. In his own experience, two girls of gentle birth had served as models for pictures of his own mak- ing. and he fully appreciated the ex1- gencies that had driven them to it One had posed in the altogether" She was girl of absolutely ire 1 proachable character, who afterward married a chap he knew very we'll. and who was fully aware of that short phase in her life. That feature of the situation meant nothing to him. He was in no doubt concerning Hetty. She was what she appeared to be: A gen. 1 tlewoman.
 He admitted to himself that he was under the spell of her. It was not love, he was able to contend: but 1t was a mysterious appeal to some thing within him that had never re- vealed itself before. He couldn't quite explain what it was

terly without the subtle something that made the other notable The craftiness of the artist was there but the touch of inspiration was lacking
 Sara was delighted. She was flat tered, and made no pretense of disguis- ing the fact.
 The discussion which followed the exhibition of the sketch at luncheon, was very animated. It served to ex- cite Leslie to such a degree that he brought forth from his pocket the treasured sketch of Hetty, for the pur- pose of comparison.
 The girl who had been genuinely en- thusiastic over the picture of Sara, and who had not been by way of know ing that the first sketch existed, was covered with confusion. Embarrass- ment and shy sense of qualification were succeeded almost at once by a feeling of keen annoyance. The fact that the sketch was in Leslie's pos
