refused to come. 1t was to strangers,
people she scarcely knew, that she longed
to cry out. And this passionate, instant,
strangled demand for help deepened her
girlish tones, loosed vibration in them
that no man could listen to unmoved.
The glances that met her took fire from
hers; heads turned to look after her. If
there was little dance in the school set,
she had half dozen proffers of escort;
other girls sweethearts broke from their
allegiance and made love to her; the
come-hither was Lit in Elsies eyes.
THAT first visit to the architect, with
its clandestine flavor, made others
easy. The plans were decided upon, the
work put in hand, Osborne supervising,
and Elsie spent some portion of each day
with him. If it was up at the angelic
house, the workmen about and Henrietta
or Humphry present, she made no move
in his direction. When she came to his
studio, and there were other people there,
as sometimes happened, she barely looked
in and went on. 1t was when she found
him alone that she stayed. At first they
talked house plans,--the house in which
she was to live with Humphry,-and their
color came and went, their eyes sought
each others and shifted away from the
encounter.
Later came those generalities which are
so intensely personal. Finally and newt
ably, the personalities themselves walked
into the conversation, thinly concealed,
wearing pronoun for mask, pulling
"Some people think" or @they say" around
them as flimsy disguise.
If Elsie was lure, witches fire, to
other men, who were in her eyes but as
trees walking, when her driven, homeless
fancies began. to focus about Bob Os-
borne she became to him an irresistible
invitation and torment. She sought
him as inevitably as the hungry child
hunts for food. She was alternately
moved by her instinct toward him and
withheld by memory of Henrietta's state

MAGAZINE SECTION for April 8, 1916

season of patient serving had given
Humphry confidence. To-day Elsie, out
there in the sunny street, glanced from
side to side as if she wanted to escape
from something. She hadn't dreamed it
would be like that. She cringed at the
soaring, binding memory of his embrace,
of his demand that she kiss him-and of
what happened after. She had cried-oh,
yes, she had forgotten that some one in
the next room might hear her; she had
forgotten everything, and had been noisy
and violent-and Humphry was fright
ened. 1t ended peaceably, with the girl
soothed, diverted, the little watch brought
out and made much of. But terror was
alive in her now as she looked forward to
other evenings, other gifts.
After while all her evenings were to be
spent with Humphry; he would give her
everything. He ,could give her everything.
That had been one of the main arguments
for the marriage. When she first said her
yes, and for several of the days that fol-
lowed, she had felt almost ashamed Of the
bargain, because it seemed to her that she
was making no return. Now an abyss
yawned before her feet, chasm which all
the response expected Of her could never
fill!
That which her brother Dana had
counted on to defend her from the match
came too late. Humphreys kiss had
reused her cruelty, monstrously. He was
not the prince.
AT this time she was out continually
with Humphry and Henrietta, buying
things, dining at restaurants, attending
the theater. They went in taxis. 1t was
her first real experience of life in big,
lighted, bedecked, music-filled spaces
where people gathered for pleasure.
The girl felt herself travelling swiftly in
a mysterious direction, toward a goal the
thought of which was terror. She only
knew that she wanted help-help that she
could not ask from Dana or Henrietta.
When she would have done so, the words

serve for one of these. In the end, Hum
phry having maintained that all final
decision must be with Elsie, Osborne was
asked to draw some plans, that they might
call again for her to see them and decide.
But Elsie made her appearance alone,
early one morning, at his studio door.
IL slipped away without the others,
she told him naIvely. AHallie-you see,
she's always been used to deciding things
for me-and he's SO much older-I can't
think when they're both here thinking"
TIP before the big drawing-board where
the plans lay spread, Osborne pulled
q chair and put her in it, studying her the
while. An adorable creature, q bit of
tender, delicate, vivid flesh and blood, in
formed with mysterious, fugitive, child
woman spirit-a little young Eve. He
was aware of difference; yes, there was
q change-even in these few days since
she was there. Her eyes-those soft,
long-lashed, child's eyes-were over
bright, and her hands moved continually.
"Are you interested in architecture
general way?" he asked, as he picked up
his dividers to point out the features of
his sketched plans.
"Oh, yes" Elsie turned to him with
sort of relief. II wanted to look at these
pictures of houses you have-and the
foor-plans. Might we-for little while
before we bother with this other?"
Osborne, who had work on hand, and
would very promptly have told any one
else so, made answer to this artless propo-
sition by smilingly bringing out a pile of
old specifications and elevations. Bunga-
lows, cottages, suburban homes, country
places, he spread them forth tirelessly for
Elsie through long, happy hour, during
which it CHANGED that no one came to dis
turb them.
At first the man just sat and watched
her. He hunted out special designs, to
enjoy her innocent abandonment of de-
light in them. He played with her as we
play with a charming child, furnishing
the toys and make-believe that keep it
going. But Elsie was no longer charm
ing child. So contagious was her mood
that when, at the end of an hour, she
caught sight of her wrist-watch-the
latest gift from Humphry-and jumped
to her feet with a little cry, Osborne
walked with her from the illusion-came

"Oh, must go!" she exclaimed !aI've
got luncheon to get for Halle and Dane.
Here I've wasted your whole morning
and we haven't looked at the porch plans"
"Come and waste tomorrow morning."
Osborne invited. "That house is sound
enough architecture of it's type. We
want these necessary changes and adj
ditions of ours to be in harmony-along
the original lines-whether we'd choose
to build that way now or not. In these
questions Of architecture, it takes good
while to know whether or not you're
suited. You've got to live with the propo-
sition for time-hold it in your mind"
Midway her quick dive for the door,
Elsie checked; she spoke in curiously
diminished voice:
ayes; and don't you think that's so
about good many things?"
Bob Osborne had no knowledge of the
suddenness of her engagement, yet he

ment that he was engaged to girl ir
the East.
Osborne, a normal young fellow strong
ly based, well supplied with good cold
reason, and not wanting a touch Of the
stole, had in his heart hidden the question
of The Woman wait upon the establish
ment of career. But he was caught
beyond rescue in the whirling circle of
Elsie's emotional storm and drawn in to
its very center. He knew, at his sanest,
that he didn't want a girl, however des-
perately he might be in love with her, who
was marrying an old man for his money
and ready for a romance on the side.
Was Elsie that? In those snatched
interviews of theirs she seemed always
about to make some revelation-some
appeal; yet, if he made the shadow of
response, she only gazed at him dumbly,
or made haste to run away. 1t began to
tell on Osbornes nerves. He took to
smoking too much and sitting in the twi-
light-a practice fit only for the very
happy or the very unhappy.
AT the Humphry house nothing remained
but final word in the matter of some
decorations. They were all to come to
the studio after dinner for this last con-
ference. Osborne dined early and hurried
back to make ready for them. Alone in
the place where she had hunted him ou'
to bewilder and tantalize him, he forgot
his preparations, and went laundering up
and down in the big room through the
blind mans holiday. A sense of futility
and helplessness made him bitter Dane

he had once so much admired-what were
they about to let this child make ugly

Lansing Sends Note
to Berlin About
Attack on 0wego

Berlin, Saturday, Aug. 19,-(Via
London, Aug. 22)-Concerning the
American note in the case of the
steamer Owego, said to have been
fired upon by submarine, the state
ment was made this morning that the
German naval authorities have re-
ceived no information of the sort in
the connection, the note being the
first intimaation concerning the mat
ter. Efforts are being made by the
authorities, it was said, to clear up the
case.
Washington, Aug. 22.-The case Of
the steamer Owego is surrounded at
the State department with much
secrecy and the foregoing Berlin dis
patch was the first disclosure that
note had been dispatched to the Ger
man government.
The Owego. having some Ameri-
cans on board, reported having been
fired upon in the Mediterranean by
submarine early in the month.
The fact that the German govern
ment appears to have no information
lends strength to contention the
attacking submarine may have been

Hope, realizing that the interna-
tional situation must be grave indeed
to cause the bureau of intelligence to
send him so urgent summons,
within an hour was on his way to
Washington.
Admiral Burnside left instructions
that he was to be notified as soon as
you arrived" the secretary who took
Hopes card informed him. I'll let
him know that you are here"
Almost Immediately he returned.
THE admiral wishes you to appear
before the board, SIR" he reported,
adding i'll a confidential undertone,
They're looking mighty worried
49, hope you have good news for
them"
The board room into which Hope
was ushered was the same in which,
ten weeks before Though in those
ten weeks so much had happened
that they seemed to him like ten
years. he had received the instruc-
tons which started him on his quest
of the secret of the submarine. The
officers seated about the long table
were the same who had been present
on the previous occasion, but II
struck him that they had aged per
ceptibly, that they were grayer, more
worried. Upon Hopes entrance the
animated discussion in which they
had been engaged abruptly ceased
and, in acknowledgement of his
salute, they bowed gravely.
Il am glad to see you back, Mr.
Hope said Admiral Burnside kindly
You come at very opportune time
l trust you can give US some encour'
agement as to the chances of find
