CHAPTER TWENTY.

CHAPTER TWENTY.
All of it was done so quickly,
with such dizziness and skill, by
Mrs Kane that Edith found her
self alone in the room with the
man she loved before she quite
knew how it had been brought
about. She had come in with
Nellie and had spoken to both the
men, and Immediately Nellie, ex-
planning that she must see the
tapestries Waller kept in his
showroom and talking glibly
and uninterruptedly all the while,
had whisked Waller out with her,
closing the door behind her.
A long, high backed couch was
set before the open wood fire, and
behind the couch was the table
bearing the reading light. The
glow from the flames was almost
as great as that from the lamp.

c%olors, its eonglomeration Of fur
niture and ornaments from all

to comprehend something greater
and more gorgeous than he posi-
bly, could have expected.
