CHAPTER XIV.

The summer Sunday ran It's usual
course. Ward and his sister went to
luncheon at the club; Madame Carter
drove majestically to a late service in
the pretty, vine-covered village church.
Harriet, at last able to relax in soul
and body, slept hour after glorious
hour. Richard, returning from golf
for late luncheon, asked for her. Mrs.
Carter was still asleep, Bottomley as
sured him, and received orders not to
disturb her. But when Mr.. Blondin
called, Richard told the butler, he was
to be shown to the terrace at once.
81 had your message" Royal SAID as
an opening.
you've not seen Nina today?" Nj
mas father asked.
II broke an engagement with her at
the club" the other man assured him.
1--WE will probably meet at the Bel
lamys', at dinner this evening"
"Ah. 1t was about that wished to
speak" Richard paused, and Blondin
watched him with polite interest.

"And-" Harriet stopped, and began
again: "And do you want things to go
on just as they are?" she asked.
For answer Richard smiled at her In
silence.

you're very kind" the girl said, eyes
averted, voice almost inaudible. They
were both standing now, Harrlets head
turned aside, so that he could not see
her face, but her soft fingers resting In
his.
"I'm not kind at all I" Richard said,
with a rather confused laugh. He pat
ted her hand encouragingly. "The sea
trip will shake both you and Nina up.
and do you a world OF good !" he said.
"You think" Harriet raised the
soft, dark lashes, and her splendid,
weary eyes met his, "You really aren't
worried about Nina"
And she tried by very faint stirring
Of her fingers to free them and, finding
them held, dropped her eyes again.

Richard said, with more force than elo-
quence. Then, with little laugh that
was partly amused and partly embar-
raised, he let her go.
He watched the young, slender fig
ure and the shining, bare head until
they disappeared among the great
trees about the house.

Richard commented, mildly, as she
paused.
"Weil," Harriet said, 81 met Royal
BlondIn one night. He lived In our
town-Watertown. He had q dreadful,
artificial sort of mother. My sister
didn't approve of her at all. A friend
of his named Street was an artist, and
he had a nice little wife, and a baby,
and they lived In big, barnllke sort

and they-they all loved me, and he

to talk about Yogi philosophy and
Oriental religions and poetry and aft

them all that he loved me, and l him.
And we were engaged. OF course
Linda suspected, and there was oppo-
sItion at home, but in the studio, help
ing the Streets get their suppers, 1t
seemed so right-so simplel Royal
said he did not believe In the orthodox
ceremony Of marriage. He argued that
no one could live up to its promises,
and l believed him. Miriam Street,
the artists wife. was poet, and she
wrote the ceremony by which we were
married. We had a big supper, and
they were all there, and this poem

and the mans friend, and for all their
friends. And then there was q promise
that when love failed on either side,
the two were free, to keep the memory
of the perfect love unstained by the
ugly years."
She paused; Richard did not speak.
She had told him this much in a sim
pie. childish voice, voice that was an
echo of that old time, he knew. Pres
emily she went on:
"There was music, and then they all
kissed me, and we had supper, and
they drank our health. l went back
that night to my sisters; Royal
stayed with his mother. We planned
to go away on our honeymoon the next
day. 1 did not tell Linda and Fred
that I considered myself married. I
knew they would not understand and
would try to interfere.
"The next morning slipped away
from the house with my suitcase, and
met Royal Blondin downtown. We
motored to Syracuse and took a train
there for New York. l had felt sick

Whole into hot parafiine. In using this

necessary to shunt, or connect it,
across your phone receiver wires, but
if using it in Il vacuum tube set you
must use q grid-leak shunted across
it. This is merely Il piece of cardboard

terminals and with several soft lead

posts should be not over iiy"-ci-h;hs

(made of carbon, for writing ink will
not serve) is used in place of lead
pencil, but the latter has the advantage
that the lines can be varied or adj
justed to give best results by means
Of an eraser.
Variable condensers are much more
difficult to make and while any in
genious boy can make them, it is
usually cheaper to purchase them
ready made. There are two common
forms, one known as the sliding plate
Fig. 26, the other as the rotary, Fig. 81
The former consists of a number Of
metal plates, which slide back and
forth in a frame, case or box provided
with grooves and fixed plates. The
rotary type consists Of a number Of
ranged as to rotate or swing past a
series of fixed discs. In each form,
the air spaces between the plates cor
respond to the waXed paper between
the strips of foil Oh the fixed con-
densers. BY means of either Of these
two variable forms, fine adjustment
of capacity may be obtained. Many
people cannot understand the func-
tion of Il condenser, but, broadly
speaking, it is to store up electrical
energy and then suddenly release it.,
as the current passing through is in
terrupted, varied or broken, or, in
other words, to increase the oscilla-
tiOns.
Although most small sets will op-
crate with fixed condenser and a
variable one is not necessary, yet the
variable type will always improve the
receiver and will permit much finer
tuning than tuning coil of any type
by itself.
