Care de Lyons, bound for Interlaken.
There was a complete understanding
between them. She wanted TO be quite
alone in the Alpine town; he was not
TO follow her there. She had reserved
rooms at the Schweitzerhof, and the
windows OF her sitting-room looked
straight up the valley TO the snow-cov-
cred crest OF the Jungfrau. She re-
nembered these rooms; as a young girl
she had occupied them with her father
and mother. By some hook or crook,
Booth arranged by wire for her 10 have
them again, not an easy matter at that
season OF the year. Later she was to
go to Lucerne, and then TO Venice.
The slightest shred OF hope was left
for Booth. Even though he might ac-
complish the task he had set unto him
selr--the conquest Of Sara In respect
TO the untold story-he still had Het-
ty's dismal prophecy that after he
learned the truth he would come TO
SEQ why they could not be married.
But he would not despair.
We'll see" was all that he said in
response TO her foriorn cry that they
we're parting for ever. There was a
grimness In the way no said IL that
gave her something To cherish during
the months to como; the hope that he
would COMO back and take her in spite

Of ChaIlis Wrandall. There was some
thing uncanny in the persistence with
which that ruthless despoiler OF peace
forced his way into his dreams, TO the
absolute exclusion OF oil else. The voy.
age home was made horrid by these
nightly reminders OF q man he scarce
ly knew, yet dreaded He became
more or less Diseased by the idea that
an evil spell had descended upon him
in the shape of II ghustly influence.
The weeks passed slowly for Hetty.
There were no letters from Sara, but
an occasional line or 30 from Mr.. Car
roll. She had made Brandon Booth
promise that he would not write to
her, nor was he TO expect anything
herself of entirely from her recent
world and its people, as she might
have done in another way by pursuing
the time-honored and rather cowardly
plan of entering a convent, she was
soon TO discover that success in the
undertaking brought deeper sense Of
exile than she could have imagined
herself able to endure at the outset
She found herself more utterly alone
and friendless than at any time In her
life. The chance companions she
formed at Interlaken-despite a we'll
meant reserve--served only to in
crease her feeling of loneliness and de-
spair The very natural attentions of
men, young and old, depressed her, in
stead OF encouraging that essentially
feminine thing called vanity. She
lived as one without an aim, without a
single purpose except to close one day
that she might begin the next.
After a time, she went on TO Lu-
cerne. Here the life on the surface
was gayer, and she was reused from
her state of lethargy in spite of her
self Once, from her little balcony in
the National. she saw two of her old
acquaintances in the chorus at the
| Gaiety. They were wearing many
! pearls. Another time, she met them in
the street. She was rather quietly
dressed. They did not notice her. But
the prosperous Hebraic gentlemen who
attended them were not so careless.
One day a card was brought TO her
! rooms. For the pext two weeks she
had a true and unavoidable friend in
Lucerne. IL would appear that Mrs.
Rowe Martin had not been appraised OF
the rift In tho Wrsndall lutte. She
had no reason to consider the exclu-
sive Miss Cast@eton as anything but
the most desirable OF companions. Mrs.
] Rowe-Martin was not long in finding

niece was no longer the intimate OF
that impossible person, Sara Gooch.
She couldn't think OF Sara without
thinking OF Gooch.
