"But don't want to drop Alan"
replied Alix lightly.
Gerry whirled around at her tone.
His nostrils were quivering. To his
amazement his hands fairly itched to
clutch her beautiful throat. He could
hardly control his voice. "stop play

been divorce among the Lansings

this room as the other right now"

as he had said them but Alix was not

to fight the tide that was bearing them
out to sea. Alan was not a philander-
er to snatch an unrequitcd kiss. To
him kiss was the seal on surrender.
But to Alix the game was its own
goal. AS she had always played IT,
nobody had ever really won anything
However, 1t did not take her long to
appreciate that in Alan she had an
opponent who was constantly getting
under her guard and making her feel
things-things that were alarming in
themselves like the jump Of ones heart
into the throat or the intoxication that
goes with hot, racing blood.
Alan's power over women was in
voice and words. If he had been hid
eous it would have been the same.
With his tongue he carried AK away
and gave her that sense Of isolation
which lulls woman into laxity. One
night as they sat side by side, single
great rug across their knees, Alan laid
his hand under cover on hers. A quiver
went through Alix' body. Her closed
hand stirred nervously but she did not
really draw it away. "Alan," she said,
i've told you not to! Please don't.
It's common-this sort of thing"
Alan tightened his grip. "You say
it's common" he said, because you've
never thought it out. Lightning was
common till somebody thought 1t out.
1 sit beside you without touching you
and we are in two worlds. grip your
hand-like this-aHl the abyss be-
tween us is closed. While 1 hold you
nohing can come between"
Alix' hand opened and settled into
his. For while they sat silent, then
Alix recovered herself. "After ALL"
she said, we're not on desert island
but on a ship with eyes in every cor
ner."
Alan leaned toward her. "But If
we were, Alix! If we were on desert
island-you and l."
For moment Alix looked into his
burning eyes. She felt that there was
fire in her own eyes, too-a fire she
could not altogether control. She dis
engaged herself and sprang up. Alall

did not look at her parted lips and hot
cheeks; he had suddenly become Ian.

In every corner. wonder how many
morals would stand without other peo-
pies eyes to prop them up?"
Towards the end of the voyage Alix
faced, wide-eyed, the revelation that
the stakes of the game she and Alan
had played were body and soul.
"Alan," she said one night with droop-
ing head, 1--WE had enough. ! don't
want to play any more. 1 want to
quit" She lifted tear-filled eyes to
him. The foil of artificiality had been
from her hand. She was all
woman and defenseless.
Alan felt trembling in all his
limbs. II want to quit, too, Alix," he
said in his low vibrating voice, "but
I'm afraid we can't. You see, I'm
beaten, too. While was just in love
with your body we were safe enough,
