CHAPTER XVI.

Breakfast was brought TO him in his
room as usual; but he did not make
his normal healthy raid upon the
dainty tray: the food remained I'M
touched, and he sustained himself
upon coffee-four cups OF II. which
left nothing of value inside the glis-
tening little percolator. During this
process he heard his mother being
summoned to the telephone in the hall,
not far from his door, and then her
voice responding: Eyes? Oh, it's you !!
Indeed / shOuldl OF
course Then I'll expect you
about three. Yes. f.
Goodby till then" A few minutes
later he heard her speaking to some
one beneath his window, and, looking
out, saw her directing the removal Of
plants from a small garden bed to
the Majors conservatory for the win
ter. She laughed gayly with the Ma
jors gardener over something he said,
and this unconcerned cheerfulness OF
her was terrible TO her son.
He went to his desk, and, searching
the jumbled contents OF a drawer.
brought forth a large, unframed pho
tograph Of his father, upon which he
gazed long and piteously. till at last
hot tears stood in his eyes. "Poor,
poor father" the son whispered bro
kenly. "Poor man, I'm glad you didn't
know IL
He wrapped the picture in a sheet
of newspaper, put 1t under his arm.
and, leaving the house hurriedly and
steadily, went downtown to the shop
OF silversmlth. where he spent sixty
dollars on a resplendently festooned
silver frame for the picture. Having
lunched upon more coffee, he returned
to the house at two o'clock, carrying
the framed photograph with him. and
placed It upon the center table I'm the
library. the room most used by Isabel
and Fanny and himself. Then he went
TO front window of the long "recep-

through the lace curtains.

them; that poignant silence was con.

while the two listeners stood there I'M
der its mysterious spell; and in it,
plaintive eloquence--speaking, as Il
did, of the figure alone in the big,
dark library, where dead Wilbur's new
silver frame cleaned in the dimness--
There was something that checked
even George.
Fanny Minafer broke the long sk
lence with sound from her throat, q
stifled gasp; and with that great COM

tired softly 10 the loneliness OF her
own chamber. After she had gone
George looked about him bieakly, thel
on tiptOe crossed the hall and went
into his own room, which was filed
with twilight. Still hptoeing, though
he could not have said why. he went
across the room and sat down heavily
in a chair facing the window. Out
side there was nothing but the dark
ening air and the wall Of the nearest
of the new houses. He had not slept
at all the night before and he had eat
en- nothing since the preceding day at
lunch. but he felt neither drOwsiness
nor hunger. His set determination
filed him. kept him but TOO wide
awake, and his gaze at the grayness
beyond the window was wide-eyed and
bitter.
Darkness had closed in when there
was a step in the room behind him.
Then someone knelt beside the cheir,
two arms went round him with infinite
compassion. gentle head rested
against his shoulder, and there came
the faint scent OF apple-blossoms far
away.
"You mustn't be troubled darling"
his mother whispered.

the front door. The light In the hall
had been left burning. and another in

he got there. He locked the door
quickly and without noise, but his fin

there was a quick football in the hall
outside.

He went TO the other end OF the
room before replying.
"Yes7"

Had you?"
There was a pause; then she said
timidly: wherever it was, hope you
had a pleasant evening"
After a silence, "Thank yOu," he
said without expression.
Another silence followed before she
spoke again.
"You wouldn't care to be kissed
good night, l supposeT" And with a
little furry of placative laughter she
added: "At your age of coursew
I'm going to bed now" he said.
Good night"
Another silence seemed banker
than those which had preceded it. and
finally her voice came-it was blank,
too.

After he was in bed his thoughts be-
