She Was More Afraid Of Him Now
Than Ever.

work, living in that awful spare room
of those awful Chivvises-when I
think of you going from place to place
at the mercy of such men~as you're
sure to meet-when think of you
waiting for poor .Wimburn to get out
of the poorhouse, want to grab you
in my arms and run away with you.
1t breaks my heart to see you in dis
tress and anxiety; for l want you to
have everything beautiful and cheer
full in the world. And I can get it all
for you. Let me! Let me love you
and try to make you happy, won't
you?'
He had crowded nearer and he held
her fast against the door of the car.
His right hand chung to hers; his
left SLID down to her waist. He drew
her toward him, staring up beseech-
ingly. He laid his cheek against her
left side like a child, the big man
pleading to the little woman for
mercy.
She felt sorry for him and for her
self. She regretted that cruelty was
her one unmistakable duty. She had
no right to be kind, and charity would
be a sin. She wrung her hands free
from his with slow persuasion and
shook her head pityingly.
He accepted the decision with nod,
but before she could escape from his
arm she felt that he pressed his lips
against her just above her heart. 1t

into it. Tears famed to her eyelids

them to his bent brow. He crossed
them on the wheel and hid his face in
them, groaning.

She was more afraid Of him now
than ever. All the splendOrs he could
promise her were nothing to that prof
Ter of his longing.

CHAPTER XXI.

The next day her fears of WethereIl
and of Leila were rekindled. She went
down to ask Bayard to help her trace
Clay. Bayard was out and Leila was
on the point of leaving. She was
dressed in her ikillingest frock and
hat and generally accoutered for con-
quest.

"You look like million dollars.
Where are you off too"
'Going for a little SPIN"
"Who with?"
Leila hesitated a moment, then
answered, with a~challenging def
ance: "With Mr.. Wetherell. Any OBJ
jection?"
Daphne disapproved and felt afraid /;
but when Bayard came in unexpect-
eddy early and asked for Leila Daphne
lied inevitably and said she did not
know where she was.
She tried to be casual about it, but
Bayard caught fire at once. He was
already in a state of tindery irri-
liability, and Daphne's efforts to re-
assure him as to Leila's innocence of
any guile only angered him the more.
He kept leaning out of the window
and staring down into the street. FL
nally, espying Leila in Wetherell's
car when it approached the apart
ment house, he dashed to the elevator
and met the two at the curb.
When Leila got out she was startled
to. see him standing at her elbow.

Leila went into the vestibule and
watched through the glass door, ex-
pecting q combat. She could not hear
Bayard saying:
. "Mr. Wetherell, I'd thank you to pay
your attentions elsewhere"
"What's that?" Wetherell gasped at
the abrupt attack.
"YOur attentions to Mrs. Kip are
very distasteful to me-"
"My dear fellow, hope you don't

"Well, big, strapping fellow like
you ought to be over there fighting for

Wetherell's panic at the domestic
situation was forgotten in the attack
on his patriotism. He drew himself
up with an unconsciously military au-
tomatism and said, 81 fancy I'm doing
as much service here as 1 could do

Bayard joined Leila in the vestibule
and they went up in the elevator to-
gether She waited till they were In
their own apartment before, she de-
manded an account of the converse
ton.
He told her in a rage and she flew
into another. She divided her wrath
between Bayard and Daphne. There
was enough for both. Daphne tried
to escape, but. being cOrnered, pro-
ceeded to fight back, whereupon Leila
denounced her to Bayard and told Of

down:

in Cleveland had called her to Clay
Wimburn-"old Yves Kip's girl"
Suddenly she remembered Weth-
erell and his messages to Leila. She
felt so renewedly virtuOus herself that
it seemed her duty to go down and re-
buke Leila for her apparent philan-
dering at Newport. She was also Gu
rious to see how guilty Leila would
receive the news that Wetherell had
asked for her.
But she found Bayard at home for
luncheon and she was neither mad nor
rnes"- enough to confuse Leila before

him. And this was rather for his sake
than Leila's
Leila was just informing BayalI
| that the butcher had delivered the
mornings order no farther than the
freight elevator, and instructed his
boy to send the meat up only after
the money came down.
Bayard had no money and the cha.
grin of his situation was bitter. He
snarled at Leila: ''Tell the cub to take
the meat back and eat it himself
Then I'll go over and butcher the
butcher
Leila dismissed the boy with a
faint-hearted show of indignation
| Then she came back and said, "And
now we have no meat to eat"
Bayard was reduced to philosophy

swell, the vegetarians say we ought
never to eat meat, anyway. We're
poor, but, my Lord! we're in grand

Daphne knew that she had no right
to reproach Leila for having known
Wetherell in Newport. She had nc
right even to suspect that Leila ha6

Life of Candle Flame.

Laboratory experiments conducted
of late have shown that candle flame
will become extinguished when the
oxygen content of the atmosphere in
which it is burning falls to about 45
per cent. Sulphur stops burning when
all but 13.5 per cent of the oxygen in
an inclosed space has been exhausted.
The case of charcoal, however. is
notable. Combustion continues until
only 9 per cent of the oxygen remains.

"She is my brothers wife," said
Daphne.
"Oh, you don't tell me!'' Wetherell
gulped, and his abrupt silence was full
of startling implications that alarmed
Wetheren into confusion.
Duane helped Daphne to alight from
the derelict and transferred her to
the other car, where Wetherell intro
duced them to a mass of shadow
whose name, "Mrs. Bethany" meant
nothing to Daphne and everything to
Duane.
| Duane arranged to have a wrecking
crew sent out to his roadster, and
chartered touring car and a chauf-
feur for the trip into New York.
He sat back with Daphne and MUIR
INJURED prayers for forgiveness be-
cause Of the dangers he had carried
her into and for the things he had
said. Daphne's nerves had been
overworked. She had been rushed
from adventure to adventure of soul
and body. She had been invited to
enter a career of gorgeous sin, and
she had been swept along the edge OF
a fearful disaster.
Mrs. Chivvis met Daphne at the
door. Her recent affection had turned
again to scorn, and she glowered at
Daphne, who crept to her room in
hopeless acceptance of the role of adj
ventures.
Tired as she was she could not
sleep. The clangOr of the morning
called her to the window. A gray day
broke on a weary town. The prob
lem of debt and food and new clothes
dawned again. Everything was gray
before her.
Wisdom whispered her to take
Duane at his word and try the great
adventure. How could it bring her
to worse confusion than she found
about her now? And then the morn
ing mail arrived and brought her a
large envelope addressed in strange

 "Take the first turn to the right" said the old man as he picked up his scythe.
 "Pm very much obliged to you," said.
 "No ye ain't, nuther," he answered. 'Leastways there ain't no reason why ye should be-"
 My horse, impatient as ever to find the end of the road, hurried me along and in moment or two we were down under the pine grove that surrounded the house of old Squire Fullerton-a big, stone house with a graveled road around tt. A great black dog came barking and growing at me from the front porch. rode around the house and he followed. Beyond the windows 1 could see the gleam of candlelight and moving figures. A man came out of the back door as l neared 1t.
 "Who's there?" he demanded.
 "My name is Barton Baynes from St. Lawrence county. Kate Fullerton Is my friend and I wish to see her"
 "Come up to the steps, sor. Don't git off yer horse-'til I've chained the dog. Kate'll be out in a minute"
 He chained the dog to the hitchlng post and as he did so a loud, long, waIling cry broke the silence of the house. It put me in mind of the com plaint of the damned which remem- bered hearing the minister describe years before at the little schoolhOuse in LiCkitysplit. How 1t narrowed me!
