From behind them came the voice of
the maid.
"There's woman here, Miss Ferris
a woman and baby. She says she
wants to see you right away"
Framed in the doorway stood woman
with flaming hair. In her arms she held
baby, and with a sinking of the heart,
Thomas recognized it. In spite of
change of raiment, it was Enthusiastically
the infant he had rescued. The woman's
eye fell upon him, and she advanced,
beaming.

Then she became conscious of Katharines
presence. as this your girl?" she in

stepped into the breach.

The woman sank into a chair.

Thomas turned away. He had seen
all that he wished of the infant in ques-

and rose ponderously.

"For mel" exclaimed Thomas.
"Yes," said the woman. ave amt

Thomas stared at her, and something
very like groan broke from his lips.
"Yes,' said Katharine. "It's lovely

compliment.
The woman beamed

and the light of her hair was eclipsed by
the portiere.
KATHARINE turned, little smile upon
A her lips. Framed against the green
curtains, she looked young and very, very
pretty. 1t came over Thomas with a des-
perate certainty that he did not want to
go home. He wished to stay right here
in California with her. He stared at her
silently for an instant. Something in his
look made the girl blush and turn away.
I'm afraid you need guardian!" she
said, striving for lightness.

He walked over to where she stood, and
hestated minute-then: al didn't

gaze he opened the paper.
Upon the front page was a picture,
vaguely familiar at first, then horribly,
blatantly obvious. 1t was Katharine Fer
ris, and above it blazed the headlines:
Society Girl Saves Fiance from JAIL"
The rest of the story followed, or rather
the story as it had reached the news
paper Office. There was another picture
of Katharine, evidently dug from the pre-
historic relies in the office "morgue," and
picture of the baby, and the two were
embraced by delicate frame of cupids.
No picture of Thomas had been obtain
able; but the reporter had given word
painting of his chief characteristics, es-
pecially his hair which left nothing to the
imagination.
Thomas seized the paper as if it were
red-hot and left the dining-room. Once
in his room, he locked the door and sat
down, staring at the offending sheet.
That he, Thomas Hill of Boston, should
have passed through the horrible expert
ence was bad enough; but that it should
be blazoned forth where all who ran might
read was unbelievable. He would pack
up at once, he decided, and go home. He
would remain no longer in this dreadful
place.
Then his eye fell upon Katharine's pic
ture, and something in the face arrested
him. How would it seem to her? 1t was
bad enough for him, but it was always the
woman who suffered. What would people
say if he were to disappear and leave her
alone?
Slowly he rose to his feet, and took up
his hat. There was nothing for it. He
must face the music.
THE Ferris house proved to be a
low, rambling building of Spanish type,
set in a tangled garden. The maid
who answered his ring gazed at him sus-
piciousy for moment; then her eye
lighted upon his hair, and she opened the
door.
Miss Ferris will be right down. she
assured him, and an instant later Kath-
arine appeared.
He rose to greet her, and found she
was smiling.
Al knew you would come early" she
said, $50 was ready
"It's-it's awful" he began.
at is rather mess, admitted kath-
arine. "But you never can tell what the
papers'll get hold Of; and of course,
being the Sunday edition, they We're
bound to plaster it over whole page.
Why-oh, why didn't you choose some
other day than Saturday? We might
have got off with a mere column"
Her levity upset Thomas's carefully
rehearsed speech. He had somehow pic
tured her in tears. Although it did not
exactly apply, he still chung to it.
al have come" he assured her earnestly,
ito tell you that l am perfectly willing
to stand by you in this"
"Stand by?' she inquired. "Just what
do you mean?'
81 mean" he stammered-"I mean
know how people talk. If l left now
they'd think had deserted you. l came
to tell you l would stay until you could
be the one to jilt me. It's the least can
do, after"
He broke off suddenly. Katharine
was staring at him with an expression of
blank amazement-which changed, even
as he looked, to Wild helpless amuse-
ment.

The peripatetic, pathogenic agent OF
malarial fever possesses the prime at
tribute Of bad peany-it comes back.
Alan had often fatted himself to re-
ceive the prodigal. and he was not now
at loss to account for the sudden
lassitude, the deadened palate and the
truant sense Of smell that had come
upon him. He turned to Mrs. ]. Y.
I'm afraid I'll have to lie down. I
hate to be a nuisance, but I've got a
touch of fever" To the initiated "a
touch OF fever means anything from
a slight tndisposition to a knockout
blow delivered below the belt 1t ia
the sole phrase OF confession recog-
nized by the malarial cult. Happily
for Alan, the expression on this occa-
sion was no euphemism. He was suf-

exertion. He was shown to his room,
his old room with its old fashioned,
many-paned windows, its enormous
closet and, under recent coatings OF
white enamel paint, the many marks
with which In beyhood he and his for
bears had branded the ancient wood
work.
A fiutter and then a sigh of disap-
pofntment went through Maple House
at Alan's immediate eclipse. The
children foresaw an order for silence
or veto on the afternoons excursion
to the lake. J. Y. became restless and
wandered noiseiessly about from room

Q quick shake Of his broad shoulders
strobe across the lawn. There was =
patter OF women's feet. Glen burst
out OF the house, caught both Of Alan's
hands and shock them. Her lips opened
but she said nothing. Her eyes and
her heart were full OF welcome. Alan
felt them speaking for her. Then came
Mrs. ]. Y. and J. Y. and Nance, the
mother Of four. There arose babel
OF hearty greetings, but through them
all could be heard the rumble OF the
echolike believing.
"Sshr' said Alan, holding up his
hand. whats that noise?"
Glen laughed. 'Its the captain"
she said. Listen"

Alan" he grunted.
The drinks came. Alan welcomed
his. He was tired and faint after the
long journey. The captain gazed on
his own glass defiantly but ordered the
maid to set it on the table at his side.
Alan waited long for him to take it
up, and then he saw that the captain
had fallen asleep. Alan slipped his
drink. The captain was right, it was
lavorless. But Alan remembered that
he had thrown away his last cigarette
for the same reason. He sighed.
In spite Of the judge, Alix was feel
ing very lonely, abandoned, unloved.
She sat on the little veranda at the
back of the town house and day
dreamed. Across her knee lay the
morning paper. A word caught her
eye. Elenic. Half unconsciausly she
read: Among the arrivals by the
Elenic Hon. Percy Collinge-
ford
Collingeford! She started to her feet
and then with what seemed a percep-
tible click her mind repeated. "Elenic."
She sat down again. The hand that
held the paper was trembling She sat
for a long time looking at her hand.
The telephone bell rang, but she did
not hear it. Old John came and stood
beside her.
-Mr. Collingeford telephones to know
IL you are In town."
A frightened gleam showed in Alix'
eyes. 1t passed and q fame OF color
came into her pale cheeks. YES" she
said II am at home. Tell him I will
see him at any time today"
Collingeford lost no time. When he
arrived Alix was still sitting on the
yeranda. She received him there. He
came upon her with a rush-like a
fresh breeze. what luck!' he cried.

CHAPTER xxvii-Continued.

Alan's eyes cleaned with amuse-
ment at the ripping words. Alix was
certainly well. Then suddenly she col
lapsed in chair. Three yearsw she
gasped. Her hands went up to hold
her head and she began to cry in a
way Alan had never heard a woman
cry before. The gasping sobs racked
his nerves. He felt as though the sobs
were tearing their way up from his
own breast. He gripped the arms Of
the chair In which he sat His body
telephoned to his brain that he was
going to faint and at such astounding
news Ten Percent Wayne woke up and
took charge. "Alixw the word snapped
out like the crack Of a whip. You
stop crying or I'll slap you, and when
/ slap l slap hard"
Alix choked. swallowed and looked
at him, outraged and unbelieving.
Alan's eyes were blazing. You listen

one thing: If Gerry had wanted me
to tell you his story he'd have asked
me to, but he didn't. He didn't even
ask me not to. He was standing in

shoulders out. He wasn't asking for

not to NEEDLE because he knew l was

had tossed her She went back in her
mind to a dinner of long ago. when
she had defended Gerry's placid
weight against Alan. She sat on Tor
half an hour, busy with varying
thoughts. She looked curiously around
Alan's sitting room. How strange
that she should be here and yet how
natural. How safe she felt She won

lenses she had raised up In herself or
whether any woman would feel safe
with the new and weakened Alan. She
slipped out without waking him and
sent a cable to Pernambuco. BY night
she had an answer. Gerry had not yet
sailed!
Days passed. She went out only for
exercise. Her mind was busy with
wondering. The judge called regu-
larry. He had put OF going to Red
Hill. He wanted Alix to feel that
