together, talked together on the
porch. Their conversation, perfectly
proper and platOnic, was unmistaka-
bly, one of understanding.
All that night Harry lay awake,
thinking of Miriam and again Of Nor
ma. He remembered how he had
come into Norma's life six months be-
fore. He recalled how the serenity
. of her nature had appealed to him.
There had been a sweetheart of Nor
mas - a young man named Willis.
They had been comrades since child
hood, and, though nothing had been
said Of love, most people had believed
that Willis would marry Norma. After
Harry had made his appearance Viii
lis had left town. Harry had suspect
ed that Miss Arbuckle resented his
having sUpplanted Willis, and that
had been the cause Of her hostility.
Harry became conscious, with
amazement and distress, that he was
wishing Willis had stayed. He found
himself questioning his fitness to
marry Norma. Would their natures
blend any more than light and dark
ness? He knew his weakness, his
constant searching for that ideal
whom Norma did not represent and
never could represent.
Then the bronze hair and glorious
eyes of Miriam blOtted out poor Nor
mas picture from his mind.
He stayed three days at the hotel
instead Of week, and Miriam occu-
pied all his thoughts. They walked
together, danced and drove together.
Yet, with mighty effort Of viii Har-
~, conscious as he was of Mfriam's
power over him, refrained from any
love-making. Only, at the moment of |
parting, he asked permission to call
on her in the city And he saw an |
answering light leap into Miriam's |

Then Harry was gone to spend
three miserable days at another hO-
tel, little place miles distant, where
his days and nights were haunted by
visions Of Miriam.
And at the end he came to the con-
clusion that he must Ofrer Norma her
freedom.
And yet the thought Of her grief
maddened him with remorse. He did
not know what to do.
In this undecided frame of mind he
approached the house where she
lived. He had gone there in the even
