"And Donald and Mrs. Bates will

So that matter was settled, Wini-

answered.
"As to the matter Of the loan,"
Richard said abruptly. "Of course,

not-it is perfectly safe with me

we might let 1t stay where it is"
Certainly" she agreed. a
slightly anxious expression in his
eyes made her reply promptly.
Perhaps he was afraid that she
doubted his business ability. OF
course, he would invest her money
as well as she could-or as Donald
could, for that matter.
He was very gentle for the rest
Of the evening. The slight cap
tiousness that she had occasionally
noted lately was gone. She was
glad she had spoken Of his increas-
ing irritabiIity. He loved her too
much to wound her knowingly.
And 1t was a proof Of her love for
him that she had called his atten-
ton to this little falling.
She was also glad that she had
decided to let him invest that
money for her. He was so gener-
GUS and so fond of her.
She looked down again at her
ring.

There was yet another matter
that Donald had spoken of in con.

Anyway, she was not going to

despising men of the world for
imbeciles! She would tell Mr..
Crittenden about it, when she next
saw him, and make him laugh
too.
But when she told him he did
not laugh-not so very heartily.
He seemed concerned about Liv-
ingstone? Could it be he was
standing UP for him whether ne
liked him or not, as he had for
the cat?
And now what queer question
he was asking her-about why she
had said nothing at the breakfast
table about having already met
him. Why, how naive that would
have been! Why should you?
And he kept on talking about it
as though he saw something in it
she did not. He was looking at
her very queerly, not at all ad-
miringly. How strange it seemed
to have any man look at a wo-
man and not pretend at least to
be admiring her-strange-and
rude-and uncomfortable! She
must make him say something.
He'd be forced then to smile and
turn 1t off-whatever it was, with
a pretty phrase that pretended to
be admiring.
Oh-horrible! How could any
one be so rude! Why, it was as
though he had struck blow at
her! Brutal! And why? Why?
What harm had she done him?
Why did he want to hurt her? He
was cruel! She had not known
any one could be. so cruel and
hard-hard as a stone where was
it she lately had seen great hard
stones?).
What could you do when some
one was rude to you? What did
any one do who was so affronted?
Beyond the dark fury of her
amazement, her resentment, her
anger, her bewilderment, a light
began to break slowly like a dis
tant dawn. AS she looked at him,
stammering, remorseful, horribly
unhappy, aghast at what he had
said, but never once dreaming that
he might simply unsay 1t, she be-
came aware of what had really
happened:
She had asked him a question
and he had told her the truth.

The week slipped by.
Winifred had her new car now
and began her Christmas shop
ping. She did not have many
persons for whom to make pur-
chases. But she had a happy
idea and confided it to her lover.
She wished to prepare Christ
mas boxes for the families of
some Of the poor men among
whom he had worked. Did he
not think it would be an excellent
plan?
At first he was not as en-
thusiastic as she had hoped, but
when he noted her eagerness in
the plan he became more in.

list, he said, Of certain articles
that were always welcome, to a
poor mans family. But surely
there would be time enough to
get such things as groceries, etc.,
some weeks from now. Christ
mas would not be here for more
than a month.
ST want to get clothing, and
gloves, and blankets, and all that
sort of thing" she pleaded.
you are too extravagant in
your notions, DEAR" he objected.
People of that class would not
appreciate such articles as you
would buy. So long as their
stomachs are full, they are salts
fled"
Her ardor was uncomfortably
chilled. She would discuss the
matter with him no more now.
He was probably not In the
proper mood for that kind Of sub
ject.
Yet. when she first knew him,
he had been content to talk for
hours of his work among the
laboring classes.
Could his love for her have
changed his viewpoint? But no
she was sure that 1t had not.
She remembered what Donald had
said could happen to the would
be reformer If he. himself, be-
came rich.
Yet Richard was not rich, even
If he had come into $4,000. No
she would not believe that money
could alter his beautiful nature.
And she would not believe It!
She would trust in the best in
him. So she smiled into his
grave face.
"Old sober-chops"' she teased.
His eyes lighted with the CLEAN
she loved to sect made him so
handsome.
"Darlingv he exclaimed. 'How

He was silent and she waited.
She knew he had something moro
to say, and she almost held her
breath.
