strange, detached effect into the con-
versation between them. His habit
of visualizing inanimate things
caused him to see as it were a pool
between them at their feet, and from
the word dropped into it, ripples that
came to his feet upon his margin of
the pool and to her feet upon hers.
He took the word away from its
personal application. Il believe
that's rather what | was thinking
about when you came, Mona. About
how we just go on-flotsam. Don't
you know on a river where it's tidal,
or on the seashore at the turn, the
mass of stuff you see there, driftwood
and spent foam and stuff, just float
ing there, uneasily, brought in and
left there-from somewhere; and
then presently the tide begins to
take it and it's drawn off and moves
away and goes-somewhere. Ar

CHAPTER "
These events were on a Monady.
On the following Thursday Mona
came to see him at his office.
She stood still Immediately she
was across the threshold and the
door closed behind her. She was
smiling as though she felt herself to
be up to some lark. "Hullo, Mako.
Don't you hate me for coming in
here like this?"
''It's jolly surprising"
That's another way of saying it.
Now if you'd said it was surprisingly

IAN invitation? Whyever didn't
she write me?" "Whyever," again -

He took the letter from his pocket
and handed it to her. Its not ex-
actly an invitation-not formal.
She did what he called clicked
the letter out of its envelope. He
watched her reading it and in his
mind he could see as perfectly as
she with her eyes, the odd, neat
script; in his mind he read it with
her, word by word.
Dear Marko-We're back. We've
been from China to Peru-almost.
Come up one day and be bored about
it. How ale you? MONA.
Ilis thought was, Damn the let

Mabel handed it hack without re-
turning it to its envelope. She said,

She shipped three roses with
astonishing swiftness--snip, snip,
snip!
In half an hour the shallow basket
was beautifed with fragrant blooms,
and Mabel thought she had enough.
We'll, that's that" said Sabre as
they re-entered the morning room.

She took up a creamy rose and
shipped off fragment of stalk over
the saucer. "Why does she call you
'Marko'?"
He was utterly taken aback. If
the question had come from anyone
byt Mable, he would have quite failed
to connect it with the letter. But
here had distinctly been an incident"
over the letter, though so far closed
as he had imagined, that he was
completely surprised.
He said, "Who, Nona?"
Yes, Mona, if you like. Lady
Tybar."
"Why, she always has. You know
that"

She seemed disappointed. She said

She went on, 'You never told me

The third type OF commentator is
the one who urges action to prevent

vocate of the PRONUNCIATION by law

most often recommended are rye
