But Clay spoke with an icy f1nality.

not invited Duane to sit down.

smiled like boy rebuked. Gall right,

So easily. Good night"
He put his warm, friendly hand out
again to Daphne and to Clay, who
nodded him away with an appalling in
formality, considering how great he
was.
Other people came in, some of them
plainly sightseers, some of them per-
sonages of quality. Everybody seemed
happy, clandestine, romantic. This
was life as Daphne wanted to live it.
But at length she yawned. Her little
hand could not conceal the contortion
of her features.
"Tm gloriously tired, honey" she
confessed, with a lovable intimacy.
Its the most beautiful supper ever
had, but I'm sleepy"
He smiled with hdulgent tenderness
and said to the waiter, "Check!'
Daphne turned her eyes away de-
Gently as the slip of paper on plate
was set at Clay's elbow. But she
noted that he started violently as he
turned the bill over and met it face to

heroism of one reading death-war-
rant. The amount staggered him. He
turned pale. He recovered enough to
say to the waiter, you've given me
the wrong check"
The waiter shook his head. "Oh,

Clay studied it again. He called for
the bill of fare, and studied that.
Daphne felt so ashamed that she want
ed to leap into the river. Abroad, it is
believed that the man who does not
audit his restaurant bill is either an
American tourist Or some other kind
of fool. But in Daphne's set it was
considered the act of a miser. Clay
worked over his check as if it were a
trial balance. .--.
"Ah, thought so,'' he growled. "The

to tilt its face to eHe side and smile.
A motorcar went by with the silence
OF a Looping panther. Another car pass
ing it threw a calcium light on Tom
Duane and his guests and his chauf-
feur. How gorgeOusly they sped! If
Daphne had had a bit Of luck she
would be with them, soaring on the
piniOns Of money, instead Of hobbling
on without it.
Daphne took OF her slippers and
fondled her poor abused feet as if they
were her children. But when she tried
to thrust them back into her slippers
for final desperate effort she almost
shrieked with the hurt.
'I'll have to go the rest of the way
in my stocking feet" she moaned.
''Not If I have to carry you," Clay
growled.
Before he had chance to carry out
his resolution a taxicab that had de-
posted its fares at an apartment house
above went bowling by with it's flag
up.
Clay ran out and howled at it till it
stopped, circled round, and drew up by
the bridle-path. Then he ran to Daphne
and bundled her into it, and gave her
address to the driver.
'But how are you going to pay him p

along. "Not that care at all.'

Clay. "Tll drop you at home and then

''That's terrible! !" Daphne sighed.

'Well, I wanted to give you a good
time on your little VISIT" said Clay,
''and it's only two days till my next

Her heart sank. Her guess was
right. His bank account was dry. It
had gurgled out in amusing her. She
felt that there was something here
that would take bit of thinking about
when she had rested enough to
think.
The taxicab swung into Fifty-ninth
street and drew up to the curb. Clay
helped Daphne out and said to the
chauffeur, "Wait!"

When Clay had kissed her his seven

how he could tear himself away from
her without bleeding to death, Daphne
pressed the bell.
Instead Of her drowsy mother open

in her curl-papers, Bayard himself ap-
peared in his bathrobe and pajamas.
"Bayard!" Daphne gasped as she
sprang for him. ."What ON earth

CHAPTER vi.

The meeting of Daphne and her new
SiSter-in-law was not what either would
have expected or selected. Daphne
| was tired in body and soul, discOur-
aged, footsore and dismayed about her
love and her lover. She had reached
the door of the apartment in the mood
of a wave-bufeted, outswum castaway,
eager for nothing but to lie down in
the sand and sleep.
Daphne could imagine the feelings
of her brothers wife when she
reached her home after a long ocean
| voyage, night landing, the custom
house ordeal, and the cab ride among
the luggage, and found a mother-in-
law asleep in her bed and a sister-in-
law yet to arrive!
Bayard and Leila, serene in the be-
lief that Daphne and her mother had
gone back to Cleveland, entered the
| apartment without formality and went
about switching on lights, recovering
their little home from the night with
| magic instantaneity.
Mother Kip's awakening came from
the light that Bayard flashed in his
bedroom. Leila had a 1ovable dispo-
sition, but she was tired, and all the
| way up in the overloaded cab she had
/ thought longingly Of the beautiful bed
| in her own new home, and had prom
Used herself quick plunge into it for
a long stay. How could she rejoice to
find a strange woman there-even
though she bore the sacred name of
mOther-in-law?
Mother Kip ordered Bayard and
Leila out Of their own room and when
she was ready to be seen she had SO
many apologies to make and accept
that the meeting entirely lacked the
rapture it should have expressed. Even
a mother could hardly be glad to see
her son in such discOuraging circum-
stances. All three exchanged ques-
lions more and more perfunctorily, and
kept repeating themselves. The most
popular question was, 81 wonder where
Daphne isl"
They could not know that she was
hobbling down the wilderness of Riv-
erside drive. She, too, was thinking
longingly of her bed. But long before
she reached it her mother had moved
in and established herself across
good deal more than half of it. It was
smallish bed in smallish bedroom.
Leila fell asleep in her tub and
might have drowned without noticing
the difference if her yawning husband
had not saved her life-and very clev-
erly: he was too tired to lift her from
the water, so he lifted the stopper and
let the water escape from her. She al
most resented the rescue, but event
ually got herself to bed In prettily
sullen stupOr. 2
From some infinite depth Of peace
she was dragged up protesting. Bayar'1.
was telling her OF Daphne's arrival.
Doggedly she began to prepare an

out before she was ready. This was
the final test OF Leila's patience and
of Daphne's.
It was a tribute to both that they
hated the collision more than each
other. Their greetings were appropri-
ately emotional and noisy, and they
both talked at once in a manner that
showed a. certain congeniality.
When at length Daphne went to her
room she observed her mothers extra
territorial holdings. She stretched
herself along the narrow coastline in
despair Of rest. But she was too tired
to worry or lie awake and she slept
thoroughly.
The sext morning the three women

made their preparations with the
scrupulous anxiety Of candidates for
presentation at court. In consequence,
breakfast was late and the only man
there, except the evanescent waiter
from the restaurant below, was Bay
ard.
A troop Of business worries IKE q
swarm OF gnats hau wakened him
early. He had escaped some Of them
in Europe, for the honeymoon had
been prolonged and beatific interlude
in his Office hours; but marriage was
not his career. His career was his
work, and that was recalling him, re-
buking him, as with far-off bugle
alarms.
He was so restless that he merely
glanced at the headlines of the paper.

and he paced up and down the dining
room like a Gagged leopard till Leila
arrived.
Her trousseau had included bOudOir
gowns of the most raviShing deScrip-
ton and she wore her best one to
breakfast. Daphne and Mrs. Kip made
all the desirable EXPLANATIONS at the
cost and the cut Of it. Even Bayard
paid her a tribute.
"Isn't she dream, mother? Aren't
you proud of her, Daph?"
They agreed that she vas 'and they
were, and Bayard drew his chair up to
the table with pride.
It was the brides last breakfast and
the housewives first. That is, Leila.
was not really housewife; only an
apartment wife, with nearly every
thing done for her except the spending
of her time. She had to spend her own
time.

ton of a headline, had his newspaper
and was gulping it dowE with his cot
fee.
He was so absorbed in the mere
clash of two Mexican generals and the
danger Of American Intervention that
he forgot the all-important demands
of love, and ignored the appalling fact
that he had only Sew minutes left
before he must take his departure.
It was a pitiful awakening to the
new Mrs. Kip. She was being taught
that she was not important enough to
keep her husbands mind or his bodl
close at home. He had said that she
was all the world to him, and, behold
she was only part Of it. He had said
that he could think of nothing else anS
desired nothing else but her. Now hG

thing else. He had to have a news
paper to tell him all about everything
in the world.
The sight of Leila's anguish over tiA
breakfast obsequies of the honeymoon
chilled Daphne's hope Of marriage
bliss like frost ravening among peach
blossoms.

every bill in it. He stretched his legs
and ransacked his trousers pockets
and dropped on the plate every coin ne
had. He withdrew a dime and waved

BIG PAY ROLL AT SPARKS

run i'll the neighborhood of 100000
There is no set appropriation for
the road men but their pay, roll will
run well over hundred thousand
