Society has no religion nowadays;

philosophy of nonethies' He had seen
clearly then but not clearly enough to
save himself He had played with the
corrosive philosophy until he had di-
vorced flesh from the soul and now it

self powerless in the grip Of his desire
for Alix.

Between the hour of writing her
note to Alan and the moment when
she stepped on the train Alix had had
no time to think. She was still driven
by the impulse of anger that Gerry's
words had aroused. She did not reflect
that the wound was only to her pride.
Alan held open the door Of the draw
ing room She passed in and he closed
it. AliX threw back her veil and
looked at him. With a quick stride for
ward he caught her to him and kissed
her month until she gasped for breath.
With flash she remembered his own
words, "If ever kiss you shall bring
your soul out between your lips" 70
Alix' amazement she did not feel an
answering fire. The kiss had brought
her soul out between her lips. Her
soul stood naked before her and ones
naked soul is an ugly thing The kiss
disrobed her, too, and from that last
bourne of shame Alix suddenly re
volted.
Gasping, she pushed Alan from her.
Their eyes met His were burning,
hers were frightened. She moved slow

hand behind her opened the latch.
Alan did not move. He knew that IL
he could not hold her with his eyes he

started. Alix passed through the door
and rushed to the platform. The por-
ter was about to drop the trap on the
steps. Alix slipped by him. With all
her force she pushed open the door
and jumped. The train was moving
very slowly but Alix reeled and would
have fallen had 1t not been for pass

still in his arnt5, Alix looked back.
Alan's white face was at the window.
He looked steadily at her.
