pede of California tourists was in full could do was to book Lucinda through to San Francisco with a section to herself on the California Limited leaving the next night, ar ranging for her return from San Francisco to Reno, trip of some eleven hours.
 Returning to the hotel about five, she was approaching the elevators when, midway in the foyer, she stopped stock still, transf1xed by the sight of Bellamy standing at the registry desk, in earnest consulta- tion with one of the clerks. Apparently Bellamy had just learned what he wanted to know; Lucinda recognized the backward jerk of the head that was an unfail- ing sign of qualification in him, and saw him turn away from the desk. Galvanized, she hurled herself to- ward one of the elevator shafts, the gate to which was even then being closal.
 When she entered her room the telephone was calling. She locked the door; and for as long as it continued to ring, which it did for upwards of five minutes. At length she gave it up as a. bad job, and she sank Imply into chair near the door, till a knock brought her to her feet in a flutter.
 Your bill, man."
 When she forced herself to turn key and knob, she more than half expected to see her husband But the bellboy was alone, Lucinda took the bill and counted out the money.
 Take those bags please" she said, indicating the new dressing case and the bag which she had brought from New York, put them in taxi at the door ,and hold it till I come down.
 Running out into the hall, she found the stairs and pelted up two flights. One of the elevators was rising. It stopped two floors below, then came up in response to her ring.
 Did you let somebody out at my floor?"
 Yes, mann, a gempman."
 ''Take me down, please, without stopping"
 The car dropped with sickening rapidity, and she stepped out into the foyer in consternation wien Bel placed himself before her, c.ocking her way to the street.
 Her heart checked and raced, she was oddly at once aghast and elated. Subconsciously she had wanted to see Bel, face to face, to see how he

looked. how her flight had affected him.
 Though he seemed to be quite himself his face looked thinner. his eyes trihe more deeply set in his head; and there was new firmness in the set of his mouth.
 In this new guise, the old appeal was strong. For space of several beats her heart misgave her
 In matter -of-course way Bel of- fered a hand, and Lucinda touched it mechanically.
 Sorry, Linda, if I disappointed you, but though recognized your hand bag being carried to the door, and waited for this car to come down on the off-chance '" II see," she articulated with an effort,
 You can give me few minutes surely"
 Bel: I tell you it's too late" Struggling to keep his temper, Bel caught his underlp between his teeth, while Lucinda cast witlessly about for some way to escape. None
 
 young man standing nearby was ob- serving them with keen interest, a rather brilliantly good-looking young man, brilliantly well dressed. As Lu- cinda's glance rested transiently on him, his face frightened with a tentative smile, and she thought he started as if he were impulsively moved to approach. If so, he recon sidered instantly. With a frown she looked back to Bel.
 He made n gesture of entreaty. You can't put me off like this, Linda, when I've come so far, gone through so much-'
 T can because I must, Bell will"
 No, by God! you can't and shan't!"
 He caught her arm lightly as she tried to pass. She stopped, her face hardening.
 Are you going to make another scene, publicly disgrace me again even when sober?"
 His hand dropped to his side. Lu- cinda began to walk rapidly toward the street entrance, but had taken few steps when Bellamy ranged alongside.
 Linda: you've got to listen to me. There's some thing I've got to tell you"
 T mean to go to Reno as soon as you let me pass"
 Bellamy's eyes narrowed as if in physical pain. He threw out a hand of inarticulate protest, and let it fall in despair. Subduing a strong de- sire to bolt for it, Lucinda began to descend at a pace not inconsistent with dignity. At the same time sensitiveness to the situation, the feeling that they had been playing c scene of intimate domestic drama for the edifcation of an entire hotel, made her aware that the young man whose interest had first manifested near the elevators had followed | across the foyer and was now stand ing at the head of the steps, over across from Bellamy.
 Pushing through the door. she breathed thankfully the stinging win ter air The canopy lamps made the l sidewalk bright, and she discovered her bellboy shivering by the open door of taxicab Abandoning all pretence. Lucinda 1 ran. The bellboy caught her arm to help her into the cab and chattered: "W-where tito, m'm?" She was prevented from answering by Bel, who elbowed the boy aside and caught her by the shoulders. Mop he cried violently. No, you hear?-you shan't go | without listening to mel" By some means, she did not know | quite how, Lucinda broke out of his hands and stepped back. Let me alone!" she insisted "Let | me"

GO ON WITH THE STORY

T see you are beginning to formu late philosophy of life. You will need it. my dear, if you mean, tc fight this out alone. Philosophy i. good medicine only for lonely hearts The others it merely hardens."
 Lucinda eyed Willis sharply. Be has been to see you"
 He looked me up," Willis admitted in mild surprise, two days after you, disappearance. thinking you might have communicated with me- Ot course, I could tell him nothing. But how did you know-?"'
 That suggestion, the underlying thought that might not be intending to fight out my fight alone-that originated with Bel, didn't it?"
 We'll" Willis stammered, tryine to smile disarmingly-'I confess-''
 Tt wasn't enough of course, that should have found Bel out for the dozenth time, there had to be a lover in my background to account for my leaving him. Did he mention any name?
 Willis made a negative sign Bel lamy didn't imply-he merely said he was afraid"
 Tt doesn't matter What else did he have to say?"
 He seemed most remorseful-"
 T know how remorseful Bell can seem.''
 ''He spoke of employing detectives to trace you.''
 Tt wouldn't do Bel any good to see me; it would only irritate him to find l could hold out against a plea he made in person."
 Willis sighed, and renounced-'if you must you must, I presume; and I will do my best to serve your wishes, my dear. Only tell me how s.s |"
 Why, naturally, I want to get the divorce over with as quickly and quietly as possible, with the minimum amount of public scandal"

 II suppose that's unavoidable" T will look up the most reputable firm of lawyers there, and recom- mend you to them. If you are in need of other advice, you need only write or telegraph, and if the emergency requires it, l will come out to con- fer with you.'
 I1 hope I won't have to impose on your kindness to that extent"
 Willis blinked,. removed the gold trimmed pince-nez of his fading day, and polished the lenses with a silk handkerchief.
 And now" he pursued-''if you don't mind satisfying an inquisitive old man-I would very much like to know what you propose to do with your freedom, when you get it." Lucinda jumped up and turned away with quaver of desolation.
 "Ah, I wish you hadn't asked me!
 That's what I'm trying all the time to forget"
 '1 thought so."
 'The emptiness to come! '" ' What can a woman do to round out her life when she's lost her husband and is fit for nothing but to be a wife?"
