The Scotsman strode to the fire

the glowing Goals. He seemed in
no hurry to break the silence and
Sheha glanced at his strong brood
ing face a little apprehensively. She
knew of only one subject that would
call for so formal a private talk be-
tween her and Macdonald. and Gny
discussion of this she would very
much have liked to postpone.
He turned from the fire to Sheba.
It was characteristic of him that he
plunged straight at what he wanted
to say.
I've asked to see you alone, Miss
O'Neill, because l want to make
confession and restitution-to be-
gin with" he told her abruptly.
She had a sense of suddenly stilled
pulses. THAT sounds very serious"

that moved him when he looked
into the sloe eyes charged with re-

the mystery of purity, of maiden
hood. He longed to know her better,
TO find out and to appropriate for
himself the woman that lay behind
the fine veil of flesh. She seemed
to a
vivid. There would come a day
when her innocent, passional nature
would respond to the love of man
as a waiting harp does to skillful
fingers.

made of cretonne that is such

any simple ornament that you

"I hope you don't play with her

IT hope you don't play with her,
whispered Louise to Helen.
why, what's the matter?
well, my dear, this is the first
time / have really been out to a
social function since the baby came,
and actually / feel as though I ought
to go right back into the hospital
and be treated for all kinds of all
ments."
Helen could not help smiling.
She was not a nervous woman her
self, and could not imagine that
anything a stranger might say would
affect her in the least
'All right, smile! Just for a pun
ishment, 1 hope you have to play at
the table with her all afternoon"
"Very we'll, I'll tell you on the way
home if I am at all nervous" And
Helen left Louise with a laugh.
Helen Is Curious
Helen and Louise and several
other women they knew were at a
bridge given for charity. The wom-
an in question. whom Louise had
pointed out to Helen and told her
tentatious-looking creature dressed
rather badly in a mussy frock that
| looked as if it had come out of the
| ark.
Helen could not imagine herself
| being frightened by anything a
woman like that could say, not even
when she discovered, much to her
amusement, that the woman was to
| play opposite her at the next table,
Helen was frankly curious about her,
however. If there were anyone else
to share the joke with her, she
might enjoy the entire thing, she
thought to herself. But the other
two women were also strangers, or
strangers to Helen, although they
seemed to know Mrs. Sanford rather
well.
I go on with what you were tell
ing u.s." said one, as Helen began
to shuttle the cards.
The woman looked across at Hell
en-, who smiled.
"Oh, pease don't mind me-" Helen
said agreeably.
'I was just telling Mrs. Williams
about a rather unpleasant experience
l had this fall" she explained. IF
you are at all interested, it might be
well for you to hear it, too"
by all MEANS" Helen agreed.
"You see, / followed the advice
of my friends, who kept telling me
that all physicians find something
wrong the minute you go to them
And you were so miserable, too
said the woman called Mrs. Will
liams, Indignantly.
We'll you see, they didn't think
so. They all thought 1 imagined
half of it."
Don't you think we often do that
very thing?" queried Helen.
An Argument
Two of the other women looked
at her coldly; the third looked half
frightened.
"I don't agree with you," said one.
Helen began to deal the cards and
said nothing.
Mrs. Sanford went on with her
story. well, as I was saying" she
remarked, "they all thought / imag-
ined these symptoms, and 1 felt
ashamed to really consult a doctor
about matters, because of being ridi-
culed. 1t just goes to show how
wrong my friends were and how
foolish l was to have anything to do
with them, or to listen to anything
they might tell me-"
"You did wait then?" asked Mrs.
Williams.
