He busted himself by packing up
tubes of paint brushes, palette and
all the other parphernalia of his craft
into his large sketching box. His
eyes cleaned rather wildly and every

as If an icy blast had caught him.

Mr.. Hutton was quite right in his

On the way to Bond street Crawley
matured his daring scheme. The cool,
crisp March air acted as tonic to
his over-excited nerves.

A very great deal would depend on

was peculiarly disconcerting. It was
so unnatural, SO suggestive, and he
could not get the feeling out of his
mind that she was keeping something
back from him-that she contemplated
doing something.
She was strangely calm and self
possessed, mistress of herself Some

it, but. as matter Of fact, he did
not at all like to contemplate the pos

Yesterday her leaving had been very

caress her, to argue with her, calm

he had succeeded in bringing her down

reason. and she had consented to go,
he had gripped her hands with the
desperation OF man bidding farewell
to an old life that was passing beyond

He remembered her look then. 1t

can a man who is repudiated b!
