kissed his lips. Her lips faltered on

and she was strong again. She
turned that holy smile upon his
face. "Andrew-so gladly-dear one

She stood up, trembling from head e
foot, resting her two palms against hi:
shoulders, prisoning him to the chat
with an infuriate strength. is this

He turned her hands deity, forced
himself free. The breath rushed up
in sitting warmth. He said coldly:
do you wish to know what / in

Gain! oh. you are talking to an
underling, are you? A servant! j

He grew ashamed, listening to the
rant. A blanched, suffering look
went across his face. And suddenly
her hands were clasped at his neck.
She was weeping in his arms.
"Andrew-forgive me. i cannot
help it that 1 love you. / cannot
help it."
He saw the futility of argument.
Unfortunately she tricked him into a
further scene.
The following Friday night she
came into his room. He had just
turned out his light. She sat on the
edge of the bed.
~Andrew-you're awake. 1 saw

He switched on the light. Her lips
were twisting with passion. She put
her hands on his arms, pressing the
hard, thin fingers into his flesh.
She had her hair hanging-an nm.
holy halo about her sunken checks.
Suddenly she leaned down and pressed
her mouth again and again on his.
She drew back, a triumphant glitter
in her eyes. Il am your wife, An

AS she fled to the hall, something
clattered to the floor. It shonc

CHAPTER Xxx
FLIGHT is DISCUSSED

Andrew laid the knife on the table,
regarding it with shamed, plying
wonder. This and her thin mouth
pressed so aYidly on his. made her
position clear.
She had one idea. He must be her
husband. He must give her love. This
monstrous demand she would repeat
as long as he remained in the house.
There could be no other adjustment
between them.
1t appeared now intolerably debas-
ing that be had permitted this hope
to exist; that he had remained an hour
after learning il.
He should have left; dropped
abruptly from her knowledge. He
scenes; end with quick unanswerable
finality her demands.
He dressed and, taking his clothes
in a suitcase, passed through the
\ humiliating silence of the hall TO the
mOonlit garden.
A mysterious sheen. glimmering and
family blue, drifted in gossamer wells
through the trees. White flowers
glOwed like pearls on the rich hem OF
the dark. The breeze came TO him
redolent Of hyacinths. 1t stirred
through his hair: laid a faint caress
on his cheek-coOl, delicate, poignant
with the beauty Of the night.
BEAUTY, PAIN
This beauty went into his mind
with ineffable pain-a white star shin
| ing on wreckage.
He went swiftly down the fragrant
path, the memory of her rapaciOus
arms reaching with their pitiful pas
sion through the tranquil purity Of the
night.
He had known love-Margaret's
love, magnificent, sublime-loye that
is one with beauty like the pale, royal
/ flowers blooming in the dark.
He thought Of Margaret. Her slim,
fragile hands clasping with glowing
tenderness his face. He longed To
stand before her; lose this anguish
in her deep, deep eyes hear her voice
Of music; rest in her quiet arms.
II only for an hour-a last hour.
II might be this. For he had a feel
ing that Margaret was lost TO hiEl :
that she could not do the thing be
meant to ask.
Their love had come to n final TEST.
A desOlate forebOding that Margaret
would not meet il assaulted him.
Andrews plan was clear. Lily, Lis
wife, would never free him. 1t was
only too certain she might learn Of
Margaret and, knowing Of her, would
make life q torment.
FLIGHT PLANNED
He meant 10 ask Margaret 70 80
away with bim-tO leave in a day
take Nora Lee and come.
At 4 O'Clock Saturday afternoon
Andrew drove past the great circl
Of hy6-angeas toward the curYinl
road where the shingled house sa
back among the eucalyptus trees.
He drove slowly. watching the blu
simmer Of the ocean. Figures grace
full and tall Iught his glance DO.
