w AN ROOD looked at his
wife, then at the morning
paper and knew that the
house: of cards in which he had
been living was about to fall.
In a few seconds she would learn
of his disgrace and punish him
according TO her own high stand
ard. He had been a fool. He
sins had found him out. How he
hated the girl who had led him
on and on until she had coaxed
a fortune out of him. He knew,
however, that he had been willing
to be led.
He longed for death, but, he
must face Alice, which called for
the greatest moral courage pos.
sible. For Alice was above re-
proach and lacked charity FOR
those who failed.
He watched his wife as her
eyes rested on the startling head
line and Van Rood saw the rich
color leave her face.
When he was ready to plead for
forgiveness, she laid the paper
down and looked at him.
II see that your cousin has
been making fool of himself

have better taste than to dra x
us into such undesirable proni-

lieve that she did not understand.
He would face this as his race
had always faced life. He fol-
lowed his wife. She looked at him
coldly
Please, Henry, you are not
TO defend your cousin. We will
consider this thing closed"
But it is not closed, Alice,
for l am the man who has
dragged the old name down I
have danced to the piper; the
price is great. If you want to
leave me 1 shall agree TO any
terms you demand
How kind of You to shield

been closer than brothers, but
even such love cannot demand
nor take so much Not another
WORD, please, i am going 10
California this evening with my
maid and the children. We shall
sail at once for Japan. You can
join us there when 1T suits you.
You might come over in the
yacht and we can sail about
for a time until this disgrace
has been silenced."
Alice Van Rood opened
drawer and took out time
table. She had saved her self
respect and protected her chill
dren, but something in her died.
Henceforth she would carry the
dead bones of love from place
to place and never be able to
bury them. She. too, lived in
card house which might fall at
any time, but she had builded it
carefully and meant to shield it
from every wind which tried to
tear it apart.

shutting the window down on

them with the ends of wire which
he had taken from his suitcase.
Having drawn down the window
blinds, he switched on the electric
lights, swung an armchair about,

sound of a piano. Kestner, as he
continued to listen, recognized
the air 1t was Rubinstein's
'Barcarole,' and it was being ex-

The piano music continued,
stopped, and began again. Then
