CHAPTER XXXIX.


When Katie ushered Tom Chandler
into the Brentss large old-fashioned
drawing room at seven-thirty, Mildred
stepped forward and closed the doors
leading into the hall.
Then she waited for the caller to
speak, as a princess might have waited
for request from one of her vassals.
"well," she queried when he remained
silent, what is it?"
"You got my note?" he asked.
"Yes," she said. IT got note ask
ing me to see you at half past seven.
That is why 1 am seeing you now.
am going to SAX you to explain your
visit to me at once, as 1 have an en-
gagement for this evening"
Then why didn't you phone me not
to Gomez" Tom demanded.
He looked at the girl before him
curiously. She appeared like stranger
whom he had never met until now She
was dressed in a close-fitting gown of
some dark, clinging material. Her
figure was very straight and very slen-
Il did not tell you not to come be-
cause l was sure that anything you
might have to say to me would only
take a very few minutes and would not
interfere with my other engagements.
oh "-as if suddenly remembering that
this man was her social equal-won't
you sit DOWN.
IF you WILL" he rejoined.
She took a chair, still holding her.
self very erect. She looked like a child
played the part of a grown woman
The humor of the situation smote her
caller, and he laughed.
Chandler Laughs.
May 1 ask what you are laughing
at?" she questioned sharply.
AT your funny manner" he inform
ed her. You have always seemed SO
sort of jolly and companionable and
young-and such a good sport. But
now you are assuming the airs of a
woman of the world-and they are not
becoming. Come, Mildred, my dear
this pose doesn't impress me the least
little bit, for 1 remember the past"
Her eyes snapped with anger. "And
it is because L remember the very re-
cent past that 1 wish you never to
speak to me like that again :" she de-
clared. Il saw you on Sunday night
as 1 told you--drunk. You were
also drunk on the night that I took that
drive with you"
Hold on !" he checked her by an I'm.

at me with hostile eyes
"Well?" he said coldly. Lets

want to go into the actual fighting.
| So that was all true. Don't you be-

is true?' 1 begged.
"Gon on" Jims voice was cold.
"Well, the hitch was your-pride.
