THE
UNREGISTERED
WOMAN

But Lawrence was so completely
mastered by the situation that he felt
q hysteria as great as any woman's.
and with 1t the urge Of necessity to
propriate Caroline lest some angry
action of hers make things worse. SO
he seized the telephone and demanded
the Knolys number-but not the num-
Der listed In Mr. Hubert Knolys's name
that would have been reckless even
though he knew from Krellin's ina
bility to reach the gentleman that he
was out.
Instead he called the private wire
Caroline had had installed In her own
boudoir-a wire over which there
could be no eavesdropping. and with
an exaggerated effort to conceal his
nervousness and ito be sauvely polite,
Mr.. Sanbury addressed Mrs. Knolys.
"Hello-is that you Caroline? I've
been very busy-yes-all afternoon.
Yes, I'm 80 sorry, but shant be able
to get back-nothing's happened to
my voice; but, ah-the fact is I've had
an accident-only my ankle, no. moth
ing serious-I'm sure-do not be
alarmed. Yes, getting out of cab. I'm
telephoning from drug store. Yes, 1t
is painful; but I'm sure it is only
wrenched. Yes, I'll ring up my doctor
as soon as get home. shall be quite
alone. Please don't worry. Oh, I can
tend to everything"
There was a pause of listening and
Mr.. Sanbury's face wore the impat1-
ent expression a mans features al
ways bear when a woman Is making q
fuss over him-if she is not the right
, woman. Women think to win mascu-
line hearts by concern over the well
! fare of masculine bodies. They man.
age more often to repel sane mascu-
line minds attuned to fight through
| and endure without any theatrical fam
fare of trumpets.
The politeness in Lawrence's voice
was still more forced when he went
on, but that made it sound even to
Caroline's ears as II he we're seeking
| to mask tenderness. And when a mo-
ment later the door opened his voice
dealt the final blow to the woman
| who entered.
.I've already telephoned to Mrs.
Millette-Mercy no, wouldn't have q
nurse touch me-yes, I'll telephone In
the Observation-Disclosures? NO;
l haven't seen her-Oh not because of
anything that happened here-She's-
she left this afternoon to spend the
| weekend with some friends-yes-
somewhere in the COMMUNICATIONS
! ter-no, shan't send for her-yes, I'll
call you If there's anything-but-oh,
thank you very much-Good-bye."
Hildegarde Catches

And worn out from his efforts to

mercenary? Was this desire to say,
growing upon her? If it was, how
could she combat it?
She thought of the wasted evening
of the dinner which she should hav,
enjoyed, but which had been for he
only period of torture.
And yet when Warren was constant

But this hint for inexpensive claret

Everything was exceptionally good

amount OF the bill. could not enjoy it.
She had propped the menu against
the mirrored wall beside her and kept
glancing at 1t to verify the prices.

Elliot abruptly, taking up the pepper

grinding out few grains on the table

Helen answered stiffly, feeling that
this was merely to make conversation

not hear the rest; she was watching
anxiously for the waiter to bring the
check.
It was well over twelve dollars, but
she had morbid desire to know the
exact amount. Mr. Elliot was launch
ed on long story about India, sc
that he might seem absorbed while
Warren paid. A subterfuge which she
knew Warren was too generous and
whole-souleu to see through.
The waiter was coming now. But

tray by Mr.. Elliot-not by Warren
Then she saw that it was not the
check-but money! Several bills an6
