 I am really glad, however. little Marquise, that l can now write Jack all about the shop in a letter instead of telling him about it. When he gets that gray look upon his face and his mouth settles into a thin red line, I am always frightened
 Jack told mo in his last letter that 1t was the first one he had written in his own hand in a long time and know you will he surprised when I tell you that tt vas cnIy the sec ond letter he has ever written to me that was not dictated, I was so happy when I saw his writing for I think the letter would have lost all Its sweetness had I known 1t was dictated to Sally AthertOn. I would much rather if such q letter had been dictated it would be given to stranger. I don't know why this Is so for am sure Sally Is my friend and likes me very much. But that letter vas something too intimate to be sent through con- seriousness of another person, es- pecially one who knows us both well.
 Soon, little Marquise. your home - the Secret Drawer - will be changed again.

 I went slowly out of Mrs. Dur kee's guest room, in which my mother-tn-law lay with d fresh ap- preciation of her shruWlress and insight
 She had instantly realized that the nurse meant 10 give up her case, and Mother Graham had capitulated but in such a maunpr that the honors were even.

 knew that the nurse was abso- lutely justified in her lctermiua- tion to ark 10 be relieved from the case -- decision, however, which she had not yet expressed in words = but l also knew that leaving 6 ease was something no nurse wishes 10 do, and I watched hot narrowly for some sign of relief at my quiet announcement
 "She has finally consented to go back to bed. I told her that her ap- pearance would frighten her utte grandson and persuaded her 10 wsit until tomorrow to see lum. I think you will have no further trouble with her"

 'T hope not she said bit sour ty. and I paid tribute to her com posture. There was not the slightest indication of any emotion in her face, and the next instant she gave me proof Of her quickncss Of thought.

elsewhere, Corrigan's assistant: were regarded by their men as lit. tie gods. This drug fiend whose sis ter Feliowes had kissed had possibly shattered the wall of solid respect years of patient toll had built up. For Enids sake he had refrained from telling Corrigan of the countless mistakes Paterson had made in his daily work, mis- takes that he himself had invari. ably cleared up.
 At the cosclusion of the final course, the girl rose slowly to her feet, dabblng her cheeks with her handkerchief.
 May I see him, please?' she asked in a low voice.
 Fellowcs handed her the key without a word. He sat down again and began dissecting green orange He heard her close the door after her, caught the tapping Of her slippers down the passage, the sound of the key in the lock of the bedroom door.
 A sudden rcvulsion of feeling urged him 10 follow her. He re- membered that she was a new comer 10 the east, that perhaps she had no knowledge of her brothers faiings. He felt that 1t was up to him to comfort her. His heelless shoes made no noise on the boarded floor as he hurried after her.
 The sound of voices looming from the room where Paterson lay brought him suddenly erect in the passage. He had no intention of listening, but the words the girl spoke in a strange, missing voice that he scarcely knew, held him rooted 10 the spot. struck motion less with amazement.
 You fool! Why couldn't you have kept away from 1t for another week? I'd done my part. l had that poor idiot between my finger and thumb. Oh, you fool,"
 The weak, mumbling tones of Paterson followed.
 Why can't you leave me alone? ? I couldn't keep off 1t - and that's all there is 10 it, l had to have something, hadn't l?"
 Fellowes crept back to the living room, his brain reeling, He tried 10 force himself 10 think coherent ly. He clenched his fists. So he was the poor idiot? God. What 8 blind fool he'd been! And still he couldn't see clearly. Was 1t possible that Enid, knowing full well her broth CTS failinGs, had come with him, desperately resolved to keep him straight? The agents had said he was q good man, at any rate. But That poor idiot" ranked. And why should he keep straight only for another week.
 The atmosphere Of the house s'ifcd him. He felt he must have air, buckets Of it! He grabbed a Teral hat from nail which served as a hook, and plunged for the vcranda. He rccled back in utter as) onishmcnt, hardly believing his eyes.
 Corrigan, cool and collected, sat calmly in chair by the bamboo table His topee was on the floor by his side and a haIf-empty glass stood al his elbow. He was grim ming from ear 10 ear.
 Slippers, pyjamss and felt hat complete." he murmured as if to himsclf."Ye Gods, it's wonderful what a clever woman can do to a man"
 Fellowes gasped.
 Weren't going out like that, by any chance ?"pursued his employer relentlessly.
 The first assistant collapsed on to d seat by Corrigans side.
 How much do you know, Corri- san?" he inquired lameiy.
 "I know that you want a good stiff lot, old son!"
