vicinity of Stone Cabin and Saulsberry

n NY DOORWAY Stood Mrs. IAN.

In the doorway STOOD MIS-. RAN.
Fate was now taking a hand, ana
the certain destiny started on its way
by an evil-tongued man and sus-
picious-minded woman, was hurrying
the pawns to swift destruction.
Mrs. Norris went to her mother, who
Gained her fears and sent her to her
home again, after a good nights sleep.
Mrs. Fall applied for divorce ana
then went to the seashore and sought
her cottage on the beach-the same
beach on which the Norris cottage
stood.
Mrs. Fall arrived at the beach Ia
time to enjoy the sea air for half an
hour before dinner, and relaxed in her
comfortable beach-chair alongside an
other occupied by Mrs. Hunter. Mrs.
Hunter, like Mrs. Fall, was one OF the
old guard Of society, and the range
of her observation" was astonishing.
Other peoples affairs were as the
breath of life to her, and she took It, in
effect, as a personal affront If society
did not constantly furnish her keen
scent with fresh track. Just now
she fairly fluttered with pleasure as

Skipped from every flower and rocked
not the cost; but this thing, copied by
all the papers throughout the land,
might, and very probably would, ruin
him.
He took an early train for the beach.
where he endeavored to placate his
wife and make her withdraw hers
charge; but she had ceased to think of
him as positive quantity, and was
unmoved by his appeals.
When Ethel arrived she went
straight to her cottage, which she
found deserted. Myra and her father
had gone to the shore. She drew IN
her breath sharply as her anxious
eyes, after searching the living room
for signs of its new occupant, fell on
large, floppy straw hat flung care
lessly on a chair. She picked it up
and examined it eagerly, her essential
feminine binding her for the moment
to its indication, and causing her to
wonder what he could see in that;
then realizing its significance she
dashed it fiercely to the ground and
started for the beach. She walked
quickly, tirelessly in the soft sand, and
was startled when, after sharp turn
round ledge of rock, she came upon
Willard Fall. He was sobered by his
wife's refusal to listen to his entreat-
les, and was as detected as his trivial
nature would allow. He lifted his hat.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Norris.
Thought you didn't like the seashore."
"HOwdyedo, Mr.. Fall. oh, I come
down occasionally"
'T've wanted ever since that fright
full day, to let you know how sorry
an that you should have been placed
in such an unfortunate position"
He said nothing, however, Of the
divorce suit, thinking she must already
know. She wanted to be rid of him
wanted to fly on wildly-wanted to
find them-wanted and feared to-
feared every step that took her eager,
urgent feet further and further along
the limitless stretch Of beach. He
kept on talking, solcitously trying his
utmost to assure her Of his regret
Racing, careening madly down the
beach came Norris auto, its flying
wheels sending up a swish OF sand in
their wake. 1t stopped within a few
yards Of them, and Norris, a strange,
wild expression on his face, jumped
out. He had seen them half q mile
off, and the sight of them together
changed his crafty, quiet look to one
of terrible rage. Dashing wildly up
to where they stood, he thrust the
frightful headline under Ethel's eyes,
his face twitching in frightrul contoH-
lions.
as it true? Is it true? Is it."
he gurgled chokingly.
Ethel's eyes took in the glazing
headline, and followed down to the
subhead. She started back, gasping,
realizing fully that what she had
dreaded had come to pass-that he had
learned from another source what she
had not the courage to tell him-that
he had doubted her as she him-that
it was all hideous misunderstanding

fed on by gossip-and that the man
before her was raving maniac.
Fall had edged of. But Norris,
watching her, needed no answer, her
startled gasp as she shrank back con-
victing her utterly.
His hand went deep in his pocket,
and when he wheeled and raised his
arm there was short sharp lash,
and Fall dropped in the sand. He
rose, and with faltering steps started
like drunken man toward Gin
overlooking the sea- Stumbling, fall
ing, desperately rising, he made his
way up through the rocks to the clins
top, as Ethel wrestled frantically with
the mailman before her.
He broke loose from her clutching
fingers, and again raising his arm,
pointed it toward the cliffs summit
where Fall tottered. Another shot
a sickening splash-and the softly
tapping, halcyon waters of the Pacific
closed over the dead body of Willard

Shiny scandal, born of doubt ana
misunderstanding, had come into ~
own.
Lives were ruined; lives were ended.
Because a woman couldn't hold her
tongue the penalty was paid-paid--

Wife.
The seed of suspicion planted by Mrs.
Fall had taken root on fertile soil.
And so she asked the question.
Love you?-why what question!
l passionately adore you. You are the
guiding spirit, the hottest inspiration
Of my life! Without you all the rest
is a meaningless tumble. But,"-and
here his voice took on tone of be-
wilderment-'I didn't think you need

1t was now tenfold difficult for her
to go on; but she felt that this was no
time to falter.

Mrs. Fall recovered quickly from
an involuntary expression of surprise,
and casting scornful, contemptu-
GUS glance at the man who justified
his. indulgences by eliminating an
other, turned and was gone.
Blindly, angrily, Mrs, Fall rushed
from the building, and in Central
Park, where she went for rest and
air, she met Mrs. Norris. Forgetting
that she lived in glass house," for
getting everything except that misery
loves company" she warned her
against the pretty stenographer in her
husbands Office. BY few careless
words the seeds of an awful suspicion
were sown.
"All through, Miss Foster?"

No, it's still with me-" she replied
with the ghost of smile. TITS been

'That's a shocking state of affairs,
certainly. Tell me, does your father
seem too great care, lately? Do
you find it difficult to give your work
your best attention, with the worry of
his ailing health on your mind? You
know = whimsically you're too
great necessity here for me to allow
anything to distract you from your
work"
Her face, flushed with fever as 1t
was, beamed softly as he mentioned
her father, and connected that word
with too great care" Her father
too great care.
Father care?" she answered half
interrogatively. "You don't know
father, Mr.. Norris. He is the one joy
of my life. For, years before / was
old enough or able to work, he was
father and mother to me. Up with
the sun each morning, he saw to it
that my clothes were brushed, my
pencils sharpened for school-made a
warm fire and prepared my breakfast.
Then, off to the frightful bleach fac
tory where he got his cough, and at
work all day, and sometimes part of
the night, that l might have a pretty
hair-ribbon, or pair of new slippers.
All my youthful hopes, desires, trou-
bles were poured into his willing ears
at night, and he was ever sympathetic
with the extravagant fancies of my
flighty, childish imagination, and al
ways gentle in his reproaches for my
many faults. No, fathers no care to
me. 1t gives me pleasure each morn
ing that have strength to go out to
work,-that am responsible for his
comfort, and 1t lightens my weari-
ness each night that / may go home
and try to anticipate his every un'
spoken WISH"

her husband. He had come home,

met a cold and unresponsive wife.
