see that her eyes were big and soft
and frightened. She was hardly seven
teen. and to Hilliard she had never
ceased to be the child of two years
ago. He bent and kissed her; her
lips were trembling, expressive.
Now we've got to hurry" he said.
Come. dear!"
1t was the tone he would naturally
use to a child, but ho had an uneasy
feeling that he had used 1t to a wom-
an. Children's lips aren't expressive.
And he had another intuition-still
more upsetting to him-whlch was
that he had been observed. For on the
threshold Of the outer door Carol and
Armstrong and Rufus Waring. as
though turned back to inquire into the
cause Of billiards and Angelas delay,
were standing. =.
He could not tell, of course, whether
they had actually seen him. 1t was
possible that in the dusk of the hall
way he had escaped; certainly there
was nothing in the manner of any one

them, to convince him one way or the
other. But he knew that he was In a
critical situation he knew that to any
reasonable person who had seen him
at that spontaneous little outburst of
sentiment, his motives wouldn't appear
to be very opaque.
No, the manner Of those three who
had stood on the threshold was aston
lshIngly casual. Perhaps too casual.
Hilliard frowned, and tried to
glimpse their various expressions. All !!

and Hilliard knew.
For the remainder of the first stage
Of that walk. he spoke not word to
Angela, who trudged along by his side
with God knows what tumults in her
bosom. He thought not of Angela. nor
concerned himself with the storm he
had stirred within her. He was alb
sorbed solely with the puzzle which
lay before him, which was to detach
Carol as soon as possible. and to ex-
plain himself. Otherwise. his reputa-
ton was ashes even now.
And. to his unbOunded joy. the op-
pOrtunity came sOOn-at the end of
the road, where the party halted for a
moment. to take a referendum as to
the route. Armstrong strayed yard
or two too far, and on the instant Hill
lard was at Carols elbow. She said
nothing. nor did he; but when the
march was resumed, he was beside her
--and beating his brains for an intro
ductory remark. He had to convince
her he had been trifiing with neither
herself nor Angela, and he walked a
good furlong before he could devise so
much as an opening sentence. AT
length he cleared his throat.
"Tve Just decided" he said, "that

and left them together.

Angela, imperially. "And you'd better

At the same moment that he looked
yearningly toward Carol, who up
ahead by the doorway was already
captive to the willy Armstrong. young
Rufus Waring was glaring belligerent-
ly toward Hilliard.
The mnsquerader smiled in defeat,
then smiled with sudden realization Of
the woman-child clinging to him. He
squeezed her arm out of sheer afrec-
tion.

with horrid welts and bruises for
