BEGIN HERE TODAY

Youth, beauty, social position, and
sincere love-these were not suffi-
cient to hold the affection of
BELLAMY BRUCE, cursed with
an appetite for cheap flirtations and
expensive liquor. The decision to
leave him came when his wife,
LUCINDA BRUCE, having toler-
ated series of escapades and receiv-
ed his promise of reform, discovered
him intoxicated and dancing with a
woman of ill-repute in a Broadway
cabaret. On the eve of her depar-
tare, Lucinda renews an old acquaint-
ance with
FANNY LONTAINE, and learns
that her husband is thinking of form
ing a motion picture company in
California. With them, she visits
the New York studio of Alma Daley
and takes great interest in the screen
life. Then comes her break with
Bellamy and a sudden departure to
Chicago, where she is visited by her
lawyer,
HARTFORD WILLIS. Lucinda re-
fuses to return to her husband.

scene of intimate domestic drama for
the edification 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 singing
winter air. The canopy lamps made
the sidewalk bright, and she discov-
cred her bellbody shivering by the
open door of a taxicab.
Abandoning all pretence, Lucinda
ran. The beLboy caught her arm
to help her into the cab and chat

was prevented from answering by

co ON WITH THE STORY

81 see you are beginning to formu-
late a philosophy of life. You will
need it, my dear, if you mean TO
fight this out alone. Philosophy is
good medicine only for lonely hearts.
The others it merely hardens."
Lucinda eyed Willis sharply. "Bel
has been to see you"
He looked me up" Willis adj
mitted in mild surprise, "two days
after your disappearance, thinking
you might have communicated with
me. OF course, could tell him moth
ing. But how did you know"
That suggestion, the underlying
thought that | might not be intend
ing to fight out my fight alone
that originated with Bel, didn't it?"
"Wellw Willis stammered, trying
to smile disarmingly-"I confess"
at wasn't enough, of course, that
| should have found Bel out for the
dozenths time, there had to be a
lover in my background to account
for my leaving him! Did he mention
any name?"
Willis made negative sign. BEL

ut doesn't matter. What else did
he have to say?"
"He seemed most remorseful-"
II know how remorseful Bel can
seem"
"He spoke of employing detectives
to trace you"

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
broguht from New York, "put them
in taxi at the door, and hold it till
come down"
Running out in the hall, she
found the stairs and pelted up two
flights. One of the elevators was
rising. 1t stopped two floors below,

Returning to the hotel about five,
she was approaching the elevators
when, midway in the foyer, she
stopped stock still, transfixed by the
sigth of Bellamy standing at the
registry desk, in earnest consulta-
ton 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 signs 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
closed.

Willis let for New York on a late
