A momentary wave of sadness
!, swept through her heart as she wen
back upstairs for a hat and coat. Il
seemed, somehow, mockery to be
! glad that the sun shone. and thai
| she should be here at Red Grange
when one remembered that lonely
grave somewhere in France, and the
horrors that were daily being enact
ed there.
But one cannot be altogether sad
when the sun Is shining, and before
she had gone far with David she
found herself chatting and talking
with him almost happily.
Aren't you very proud of your
beautiful horne? I think it must be
wonderful to know that you are one
OF a family who has lived here foa
generations and generations: that II
all belongs to YOU"
"I am proud of 1t, even though
shall probably be the last Bretherton
to live here
| She looked up startled.
What do you mean?"
"Only that now Nigel is gone there
will be nobody to carry on the
name"
"But you will marry?"
He shook his head.
Its not very probable: I'm not
the sort of man women care for,
even If wished them to-" He smiled,
looking down at her.
"Oh, but you mustn't think that,
she told him impulsively. ITS only
Just that you haven't met the right
woman yet; some day she will come
along, and then
"Yes, and then?" he echoed.
"Well, then all the world will
seem changed and different; you will
wonder how ever you managed to
live without her."
His grave eyes searched her face.
"Is that how one feels when one
is in love?"
She looked UP. and quickly away
again.
afraid I have been talking nom
sense" she said distressfully.
They had reached the end Of the
path skirting the lawn, and David
held open a little gate leading to a
kitchen garden and paddock beyond.
"If it is nonsense. it's very charm
ing nonsense" he said, smiling. "You
make me feel that I have missed
great deal by being a bachelor"
She shook her head.
"I didn't mean that; It isn't all
roses when you care for a person
very much"
mot even when they care very
much for you in return?"
.But sometimes they don't" she
told him. "And then" She broke
off, wondering II he realized what
her words conveyed. but he made no
comment, and they walked on silent
ly.
Once he stopped to speak to one
of the gardeners; the man glanced
at Mary and touched his cap re-
spectfully.
.eThis is Mr.. Nigel's widow" said
David.
He did not look at Mary as he
spoke, or he might have seen the
sudden pallor that drove the color
from her face; she turned abruptly
and walked a step away.
When David rejoined her:
"Smithers knew Nigel when we
were both little boys" he explained.
HE was here on the estate as lad
in my fathers time"
She did not answer; she was be-
ginning to realize with sort of hor-
ror what her deception really meant.
1t was a continually acted lie. She
was proposing to live. day after day,
taking the respect and attentions due
to another-robbing the dead-rob-
bng the dead.

CHAPTER XVI
A Difficult Path

He took her down to the stables,
and showed her the loft where he
and Nigel had played as children;
he showed her the step-ladder stair
case down which Nigel had once
fallen on the last day of the holi-
days. \
'He cut his forehead badly
dare say you have seen the scar
but l don't think he minded, as 1t
meant an extra week at home. He
always hated school"
Yes, / know" she answered
vaguely. She was wondering what
would happen if suddenly she
stopped, turned to this man, and
said:
II am not Nigel's widow. I was
never his wife. I have no right here
at all. I am just deceiving you all
along"
She went to the door of the stables
and stood looking across the sunny
garden with - S that saw nothing.
David came to stand beside her;
there was sort of compassion in
his face.
IT hope you will be happy here
with u.s." he said. II hope you will
believe that 1 am anxious to be your
friend. II there is anything troub-
ling you. I wish you would tell me,
and let me help you."
His voice sounded kind and sin
cere; there was nothing but earnest
sincerity in his eyes; for moment
she longed to take him at his word.
and make a clean breast of the
whole miserable story, but some
thing prevented her; she even forced
herself to laugh a little. though the
tears rushed to her eyes.
you are very kind; I will not
forget. But-but there isn't any
thing troubling me-there isn't any,
thing at ALL"
And now she was no longer look
ing at him. She moved out into the
yard again as If to prevent further
conversation.

CHAPTER XIV
At the Red Grange


Mary Furnival woke the next
morning to find Miss varney at her
bedside; she started up with a little
exclamation.
.Ts it very late? oh. I am SO
sorry"
She glanced apprehensively at the
little clock on the mantelshelf; 1t
pointed to ten.
A distressed flush colored her
cheeks.
"Oh, am sorry! / had no idea 1t
Was so late. I never sleep on like
this"
Miss Varney laughed.
II am glad you have, my dear; /;
you looked, worn out last night;
told them not to disturb you. Have
you had good night?"
Mary looked rueful.
Much too good, I'm afraid. I will
get up at once"
They're bringing your breakfast
up 10 you. The fire has been Int al
ready, you see; it shows how sound :
ly you slept"
1T seems impossible!"
Mary had been SO sure that she
would not be able to sleep at all, and
now for nearly twelve hours she had
slept dreamlessly.
A smiling maid brought her break
fast, and set 1t on small table close
to the fire, 1t was all most daintily
served; the little teapot was silver;
the tray cloth of fine linen, embroi-
dered with the Bretherton crest.
Mary looked at everything with a
sort of awe. She had been used to
such plain homeliness all her life.
There was something luxurious and
delightful in this new daintiness of
surroundings.
She enjoyed her meal thoroughly;
she felt new energy and anticipation
thrilling her as she dressed. The
dullness of yesterday had gone: the
sun was shining; sparrows twittered
to each other in the ivy that covered
the face of the old house.
She went down the wide staircase
wondering what the day would bring
forth. In the hall she met David
Bretherton; he stopped when he
saw her, and held out his hand.
Aunt Florence tells me that you
have broken the record for long
Sleep" he said, smiling. II hope you
feel all the better for it."
She flushed little.
II am afraid you must all think
me horribly lazy: I am always up so
early. as a rule. And on such a fine
morning. tool"
would you like to go out? I am
Just going round the gardens; will
you come with me? ?'
81 should love to-" She was all
.eagerness to see the well-remember-
ed places; she would rather revisit
them with David than anyone, seeing
that she could never walk there
again with his brother.

When Nigels brother. David, calls

ashamed to tell him OF Dolly.s mar
riage. David mistakes Mary for his
brothers wife and asks her to come
to live at Red Grange with him and
his aunt. David and his aunt well

you had seen his face as did!"
Mary said nothing. There was a
leaping pulse in her throat that
seemed to be choking her. but she
tried to smile, meeting the elder
woman's wistful gaze.
Il suppose we don't all feel things

rose to her feet with little weary

Mary smiled rather quiveringly.
"I'll try" she said.
But when the door had shut on

CHURCH COUNCIL SEEKS REDRESS
 FOR JAPANESE
Urges Congress To Re consider Exclusion
 Measure

WASHINGTON, April 20.-The Fed erated Council of Churches today asked the Senate and House to reconsider the Japanese exclusion section of the immi- grafton bill and to join with the execu- tive department of the government in solving the problem 'in a more satisfac- tory way"
 "To sume up their opinion,' said a statement issued by the council, 'the churches believe that Congress is meet ing the situation in wrong way and that the same result may be obtained in a friendly way that would not hurt the Self-respect of Japan or interfere with the friendship that has long existed be- tween the two nations
 In a letter sent to every member of Congress, the council said: "The com mission on international justice and good will of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America regards the proposed immigration law which threatens to strain the relations between the United States and Japan as unneces- sary and as calculated to place our country in a false relation to a great and friendly neishbor.
 "The Japanese government" it said, recognizes the problems which the United States faces in connection with the question of assimilation and eco zlcnie comp etiti6n of 3hG Japanese inf- migrants But it asks that, il place of legislation, which it regards as aimed at Japan, a new arrangement be made through a conference, whereby due con- sideration can be given to her national self-respect.9
