heavy overcoat and limped into the
drawing room. Unity did not by SO
much as a glance around disturb her

Then she languidly held up hand to
him.
He brushed it with his lips. You're
looking scrumptious, Unity" He went
so far as to give a brief admiring pat
to her hair.
She moved petulantly. Don't!
You'll muss my hair"
He dropped her hand. That would
be a shame, wouldn't it,"
He sat down near her. She sighed.
The sigh. one might have thought, was
one Of alarm and was because she

The men all laughed reminiscently.
Unity and Mrs. Saunders exchanged
sweetest smiles. The dinner resumed

Now" Mark grimly reminded him
] self, I've let myself in for it,"
But anger was surging He deemed
that, through Unity. he had been made
ridiculous.
The evening passed Mark handed a
smiling Unity into their carriage. Not
word passed between them during
the drive homeward, nor until they
were in their house. Mark led the way
to the library. The gas jets were not
lighted. but the glow from a generous
log fire threw their angry faces into
sharp relief, as they faced each other.

But the bitter retort was halted, bit
ten off by the quick tightening of his
jaws. When he resumed. he spoke

She tried a weapon that had been

he pampered, was a coward. He was,
