1t was the man who asked the ques-
tion. Her bare nod of assent was
enough to answer him. He did not
go on to ask what she had stolen.
After all, it didn't matter.
And now she waited for her hus-
band to come back from melting out
justice = logical, necessary Justice
upon the little Malay woman who had
stolen the curtain rings. He was all
she had-all she loved or wanted in
the world And she was alone with
him in that remotest corner of it.
1 suppose situations like that are
not uncommon. This one is getting
told about because it just happened
that my wife and ] were the two
American guests at the residency that
night, and that Sylvia told il to us
told it in many ragged little frag-
ments, under pressure of panic and
desperation that forced her to clutch
at anything that looked like a SYM
pathetic hand,
The story was simple enough.
Two days after her husband had
gone off into the jungle to secure his
nine heads the Maintz, from Singa-
pore, came into the ha rbor at Raff1eto on.
The new monsoon was blowing at
the one precise angle which gave 1t
access to the harbor and two big
packing cases, both addressed to the
residency, were dropped overheard in
an attempt to land them. By the
time they were rescued and got
ashore the consignee's marks were
pretty well obliterated. But both of
them were brought forthwith to the
residency.
Now, the Honorable Sylvia had ex-
pected a box. She had come out to
the Far East more than two years
before, amply equipped for a casual
glance at the tropics. She had varied
the plan by staying and marrying
Carew. The necessity for replenish-
ing this wardrobe became pressing,
and she ordered more clothes by mail
from London. One of the two boxes
undoubtedly contained these clothes.
But in view of their recent INNER
sion in sea water it devolved upon
the Honorable Sylvia to open both
boxes at once.
As 1t happened the box she opened
contained the purchases which Mrs.
Thorndyke-Martin had made in Paris
"a lot Of jndecently lovely stock
ings and underclothes, a couple of
frocks and a certain miraculous hat.
They had been beautifully packed,
and the brief immersion of their box
in the water of the harbor hadn't
damaged them a bit.
For one delirious moment Sylvia
thought they were hers. But it didn't
need. really, the discovery of the Pa
risian modiste's bill to convince her
of her mistake.
Then she opened the other box,
which contained her own purchases.
She found them just as CHASTITY and
provincial and absurd as in her worst
anticipations she had pictured them.
And it was while they were all
spread out in her big shabby boudoir
in the residency, the butler had
brought in the wireless message an

South Asiatic squadron at Rafleton.
4 y r <
VOU will have to think minute to
realize just what that visit i'm
ported to Sylvia. Admiral Etheridge,
friend of her mothers. And the young
flag lieutenant who had signed the
message was sort of second cousin
of her own. Probably half dozen
OF the officers she would be expected
to entertain were boys she had danced
and fiirted with in the old days. The
visit meant that Sylvias old world
was coming for look at her.
Her old world, had treated her
badly: there was no doubt of that
1t might have pitied her a little for
shown itself Mortified, coldly impla-
cable and at last insolently derisive
when she insisted on marrying him.
1t had been fiercely satisfactory to
send the old world overheard, in the
wonderful blaze of passion and pride
and self-a abandonment that had given
her to Carew. And those fires were
blazing still. He had never disap-
pointed her once. The price she had
paid for him weighed not a grain
against the complete and poignant
happiness he brought her. Her old
world was welcome to come and look.
But-and here the bright red
burned in her checks and her finger
nails pressed hard into her small
palms-but they must not be allowed
would be at her husband rather than
her. I'VE remember the Sylvia he
took. And this is what he has made
her-this pathetically dowdy little
colonial, trying to dress as she imag-
ines people are dressing back home"
She looked at things that had come
in her own box from London. And
then she looked at what Mrs. Thorn
dyke Martin had bought to pass the
time in Paris. They must be nearly
alike in size and figure, and clothes
don't have to fit nowadays anyway.
A half dozen deftly placed pins would
make everything right. Dressed like
that, how she could face that old
WoTlu oI I1O" Couiu
she bid them welcome and entertain
them and send them away again,
wondering, Even if her husband did
not return in time to see his triumph
and make it perfect.
For you can understand, can't you,
that it would be his triumph rather
than hers?
The Honorable Sylvia put on the
hat, and a great resolution formed
itself in her soul. The Thorndyke-
Martins were expected to get in on
the General Reyes, along with Capt.
Burch, a day or two before the squad
ron arrived. Sylvia would go to Mrs.
Martin and buy or beg or borrow
those clothes. Whatever happened,
when the admiral and the flag lieu
tenant and the rest came ashore, they
should find her wearing them.
And then the General Reyes came
into the harbor, and without drop
ping anchor at all sent a boat ashore
for mails. There was no time to ex-
