Who's Who9

The child, the pride Of the neighbor-
hood because of his keen intelligence,
was left to play at the home of neigh
Dor. There was something different
about this home that seemed to attract
the child more than any other. Here
he was amused by an elderly man,
who read, played the plano, slept and
did nothing to mark him as the head
of household. His wife on the other
hand carried on a successful depart
ment store where she spent twelve Of
the twenty-four hours.
This condition seemed quite con-
trary to the child's conception Of
domestic life. To him the duty Of the
head Of the house was to leave after
breakfast for business and return at
night to dinner, while the wife was to
stop at home and attend to the house
hold duties. The ehild's mother re-
turned and noticed that the child
hooked puzzled, but could not put his
query into words. Finally he asked :
Mother, is she a heT'-New York

Al MEAN MARRIAGE"

Synopsis.-Harriet Field, twenty
eight years old, and beautiful, %
the social secretary of the t1irta-
dous Mrs. Isabel Carter, at
"CroWnlands," Richard Carter's
home, and governess OF seventeen
year-old Nina Carter. Ward, twen-
ty-four years old and impression
able, fancies himself In love with
his mothers attractive secretary.
Mrs. Carter's latest affair is with
young Anthony Pope, and the
youth is taking 1t very seriously.
Presiding over the teacups this
summer afternoon, Harriet is pro-
foundly disturbed by the arrival Of
q visitor, Royal Blondin. Next
day, at a tea party in the city,
Blondin makes himself agreeable
to Nina, and leaves a deep impress
sion on the unsophisticated girl.
Harriet's agitation over the appear
ance Of Blondin at "Crownlands''
Is explained by the fact that he
had been a disturbing element in
her life ten years before and she
fears him. The man Is an avowed
adventurer, living on the gullibility
Va Tic Au45 EICus ne frankly an
nounces to Harriet his intention of
marrying Nina, and urges her to
aid him. She is in a sense in his
power, and after pleading with him
to abandon his scheme agrees to
follow a policy of neutrality.
Knowing the tender feeling she has
inspired in Ward Carter, Harriet
Is tempted to marry him for the
position and wealth he can give
her, though realizing she does not
love him. Blondin has ingratated
himself with Madame Carter, Rich
ards mother, and she Is whole
heartedly in favor OF his marriage
with Nina. Ward urges Harriet to
marry him. She procrastinates.
Mrs. Carter elopes with Pope. Blon-
din threatens Harriet. She prays
to do what is right. Blondln and
Harriet agree to keep silent about
their past relations.

CHAPTER Ix-cOntinued.

"Your devotion to my son and his
family is extremely praiseworthy,"
said Madame Carter, coldly. ''But, as
Mrs. Tabor, who is Of course a woman
Of the world, and comes of a very fine
family - she was a Kingdom, the
Charleston family-as Mrs. Tabor was
saying, Richard is just the sort Of
cbiyalrous, splendid man who is per-
fectly helpless in his own house !"
Harriet smiled, with a touch Of
scorn.
"When, Mr.. Carter is dissatisfied
with me, Madame Carter, / shall Of
course consider myself - dismissed.
But until that time am very glad to
make his own house comfortable for
him.
The hard, angry color Of old age
had been rising in Madame Carter's
face during this speech, and now she
was quite obviously enraged.
''You are hardly in a position to
dictate to me in this matter /" she said,
shaking. Harriet watched her gravely
as she rose from her chair, made a
few restless turns about the room,
opened and shut bureau drawers,
dropped and plucked up handker-
chiefs and newspapers. In a dead 81
lence the girl asked:
"Was that all?"
A sort of sniff was the answer. Har-
riet sighed as she entered her own
suite to find Nina and Amy compla-
Gently dressing themselves for the
afternoons run.
''We're going to Easthampton, Miss
Harriet; Granny said 1t was all right, "
Nina said, in great spirits. 81 know

quiet significance. sIt would be g
marriage only IN the eyes Of the
world
'T see" she said. @E-T must have
time to think about I'll"
"As long as you Ilkeip She had
risen, and now he rose, too, Gnd went
with her to the library door and
opened it for her. "When you decide
come and tell me-" he said, bowing.
She turned to give him a parting
smile, with a desperate wish to tell
him half the honor and JOY she would
feel In taking his name, ln sharing his
responsibilities, but the pleasantly Inn
personal nod he gave her chilled the
words unspoken. Harriet fed to her
room.
"My chance" she whispered, press
Ing her cold finger tips to her hot
cheeks, 'my. chance at last-and
can't take It'll No, can't take it'll
don't care what his world does or
thinks-my world doesn't permit It'll
No-I can't. Not a divorced man, not
a man with a living wife I've been
a fOOl-I've been wrong, plenty Of
times, but I've never committed my
self to folly and wrongP
She stared blindly ahead Of her.
After a while she spoke again, half
aloud:
"Oh, but why does 1t have to be
this way If could go to him, tell
him what he means to me, If we were
poor-if we could take little place
next to Linda-never to see Nina or
his mother or Ward or Roy again
Oh, what heaven How I should love
it, planning for things together, as
Linda and Fred did, having him come
home to me every night
"But It isn't that way" Harriet sud-
denly recalled herself sensibly, "and
it is folly even to think about itl He
is rich man, and a married man,
and that ends It. That ends it."
A great desolation swept her spirit.
She fell from bitter musing to weaken
ing. The law permitted it, after all.
Plenty Of good women had shown her
the way. The family needed her; she
might do good here. And above all,
she loved him.
She heard a stirring in the bed
room.
"What time is 1t, ROsaT' she called,
suddenly aware Of weakness and
fatigue.
my goodness, how you frightened
me, Miss Fieldl It's Just noon."
"Do you happen to know If Mr.. Car
ter is still downstairsY'
"Yes'm, he is; he's expecting Mr.,
Fox to come"
Harriet smoothed her tumbled hair
and went slowly downstairs.
"But 1 love himp she said, sud
