Della regretted the frankness of her words the moment she had spol;- en them.
 But it was too late. Farrel had heard distinctly, and he knew they held a definite truth. Natalie's rich uncle was prejudiced against him
 Still, Della had been rude, Jeal- ousy. no doubt, had prompted her and not any real concern for him
 You flater mel" This in his most sarcastic vein. No doubt you, too indorse Mir. Ducanes opinion?"
 She moved toward him and held out her hand.
 Don't be angry Farrel, please No. l wouldn't go so far as to back Mir. Ducane's comments. Because I'm fond of you, But you must admit you're not in love with Natalie Du- cane. It's the almighty dollar, isn't it? Confess it"'

 'It her uncle dlsinherited Natalie, confess you wouldn't want her?"
 why shouldn't I? She's young = very pretty--charming
 But not your sort. eh, Farrel? No, of course not! You like something older and more sympathetic. Me, for lHSldiCes HIS very dICutys
 You haven't been so mighty sym pathetic latelyr'
 She caught his hand for no one was in sight. She gave it aD affectionate squeeze.

 You're a good pal, Della! Yes, if only--'

 Then he gave an exclamation. For he had found the missing ball He took a long brassey shot that landed near the green, and put an end to conversation. He moved off, while Della played
 Meantime, in the privacy of ner bedroom in her uncle's house, Miss Natalie Ducane was racking her brain for some solution to the pres ent situation. Farrel Galt had got her in his web all right And oh! she didn't love him! And the thought of an engagement was distastetll, while the thought of marriage was abhorrent.
 But he meant to speak to Uncle Frederick. That was patent
 Tomorrow morning he would come. Oh, hateful interview
 She must speak to Uncle Frederick first--must "sound" him! Maybe cou-- age would be given her to make n clean breast of her bridge debt. her pawning of the necklace and her pur- chase of the "fake"
 Then Farrel Gait need not be placated by a temporary engagement. There would be no need of such a step.
 She gathered her forces together. powdered her small nose, and went down to the library.
 Mir. Dcane was there--alone
 As she entered and he saw her. there was no kindly welcoming smils upon bis aristocrattc face. Instead, he looked supremely worried, even angry.
 This was unusual.
 "Slt down, Natalie. I have word or two to say to you" His voice was sharp.
 The word or two" was peremptocy. He had heard that she had gone ont with the notorious Farrel Galt. and had decided there and then to have 1T out with her the moment she re- turned.
 Understand, I forbid the fellow to enter the house, and forbid you to be seen in public with him--or in private. eitherl That's quite final, Natalie! If you dlsobey my express wish, then you can no longer stay under my roof"
 He was hot-tempered man, MT. Ducane. when he was reused. Gen erous and kindly, with real affec- ton for his pretty niece, today va rious rumors--combined with 8 sharp attack of liver--had proved too much for his equanimity.
 It was pity that Natalie got the brunt of his annoyance. For that young lady had inherited her share of the family temper also. And lively scene ensued. Both

 She faced him with flaming cheeks and eyes that sparkled dangerously.
