Confessions Of q Bride
A SLAVE TO LOVE.

JAMES BOOK-CHAPTER 3.
.nOW Chrystobel could have so
n Atangled up her matrimonial af-
fairs | could understand only be-
cause | knew Hamilton Certeis so
well.
AS a physician, the man had made
a great name before the war, Ger
tets was a genius. Bob had likened
him to Leonardo more than once. He
was a chemist, sufficient reason why
Daddy Lorimer had needed him with
the Lorimer Co. He was an inven-
tor, his diving suit with respirator
permitted man to walk freely on
the ocean bed, at a certain depth. He
was an art connoisseur. AS brain
and nerve specialist he had accom-
plished difficult cures. To Daddy
for years his best friend, Certeis had
confided the secret of his miracles:
Hypnotism!
In spite of her intelligence Chrys-
tobel was susceptible to suggestion.
She was always taking up some fan
tastC eastern cult: Size had been an
ardent ouija devotee and student
of spiritism. She abandoned one
mysticism only to embrace another,
Her sensitive mind was easily inn
pressed by the fascination which
Certeis could exercise when it served
! his purpose.
That purpose was to make himself
the son-in-law of the Hon. James D.
Lorimer, munitions maker and multi
millionaire; as such, he would be
above suspicion, he would enjoy a
certain security, he fancied.
At the time of her marriage, Chrys
| had not met Jordan Spence. And
except for Jordan Spence, | think
my sister-in-law would have cared
little whether she was spinister,
wife or widow. She possessed every
material thing dear to the heart Of
woman. No human being walked
the earth more free than this lovely
young woman. She would have been
perfectly happy except for Jordan
Spence-eXcept for Love
Her hasty marriage to Certeis was
to her like a scene in a drama of
which she was the heroine Her own
experiences amused her. Her life
was like a plot the denouement of
which she could not guess. Her
wealth, her leisure gave her unlim-
tied opportunities to star in her
part.
Chrys would have been delighted
with her role-except for Spence.
She, who could have been free and
happy, in spite of Certeiss was as
much a slave to love as |, Bob Lori
mer's jealous little wife!
Love accounted for the complex
ties of her character and the contra
dictions in her conduct; just so, love
accounted for poor me!
Our tramp over the Lorimer estate
that balmy spring morning ended
rather abruptly. We had wandered
to the most secluded section of the
park when | noticed that Chrys was
wearing her wonderful sapphire ring.
Certeis had given it to her for we'd
ding ring, it was a treasure, he
had guaranteed it to bring her good
luckl
The stone was conspicuously valu-
able, rich loot for a highwayman.
