the teller picked up his handbag and
mounted the steps. Griswold's brain
fell into halves. With one OF them he
was making u TO the newspaper

to which he was being subjected.

Griswold hardly knew how he made

the business squares and the lake

CHAPTER xxx.
Apples Of lstakhar.

The swinging arc light suspended
above the street crossing sputtered
and died down to a dull red dot of in.
candescence as Griswold returned
Margery's note to his pocket and
walked on.
There are crises in which the chief
contention looms so large as to leave
no room for the ordinary mental proc
esses. Griswold saw no significance
in the broken line of Margery's mes.
sage. The one tremendous revelation
the knowledge that the dross-creat-
ing curse had finally fallen upon the
woman whose convictions should have
saved her-was blotting out all the
subtler perceptive faculties; and for
the time the struggle with the sub.
merging wave OF disappointment and
disbursement was bitter.
He was two squares beyond the
crossing Of the broken-circuited arc
light, and was still following the curve
of the lakeside boulevard. when he
came to the surface of the submerg-
ing wave long enough to realize that
he had entered Jaspe- Grierson's por-
ton of the waterfront drive. The great
house, dark as to its westward gables
save for the lighted upper windows
marking the sick room and its ante.
chamber, doomed in massive solidity
among its sheltering oaks; and the
moon, which had now topped the hills
and the crimsoning smoke haze, was
bathing land and lakescape in a flood
Of silver light. whitening the pale vel.
low sands of the beach and etching
fantastic leaf-traceries on the gravel
Of the boulevard driveway. =
There was no inclosing fence on the
Mereside border Of the boulevard. and
under the nearest Of the lawn oaks
there were rustic park seats. Jasper
Grierson's single concession to the
public when he had fought for and
secured his property right-of-way
through to the lakes margin. Griswold
turned aside and sat down on one OF
the benches. The disappointment was
growing less keen. He was beginning
to understand that he had made no
allowance for the eternal feminine in
the localized Fidelia-for the feminine
and the straitly human. But the dis
heartenment remained. Should he
stay and fight 1t out? Or should he
take pity upon the poor prisoner Of
the conventions and seek to postpone
the day Of reckoning by flight?
He had not fitted the answer to
either OF these sharp.pointed queries
when a pair Of light-ingered hands
came from behind to clap themselves
upon his eyes, and a %well-known voice
said, Guess"
"Margery!" he said, and she laughed
with the joyous unconstraint of a
happy child and came around to sit
by him.

moonlight, looking as II you had lost

with his head down and his hands be-
hind him. when he collided violently
with Raymer going in the opposite di
rection. The shock was so unexpected
that Griswold would have been
knocked down II the muscular young
iron founder had not caught him
promptly. At the saving instant came
mutual recognition.
Hello, there!" said Raymer. You

Not 10Y she doesn't" was the
rather grim contradiction. Il have just
left her"

There was a pause. and then Girls

S you did take my way out of the
labor trouble, after all. didn't you?"
Raymer looked away.
Il don't know just how you'd like to
have me answer that, Kenneth. How
much or how little do you know Of
what %happened?"
Nothing at all'-shortly.

mot the least in the world. It's a
good place for you to so just now,
and I guess you are the right man
for the place. Goodnight"
At the next corner where there was
an electric light, Griswold stopped and
opened the monogrammed envelope.
The enclosure was a single sheet of
perfumed note paper upon which. with
out date, address or signature, was
written the line:
"Mr. Galbraith is better-and he is
grateful"
