Now he wondered If Nora Lee
had some deep, sinister motive IN

heard that beseeching: mo more!

He had caught to the fun its
sharp anguish. And in a flash
he had seen into Natalie's heart
perceived his power.
All day a disturbing memory OF
it lettering in his mind. In I'M
guarded moments a buoyant note
of Joy struck out, bringing him
sharply to his senses.
He then assured himself friEid-
" that he was not responsible for
another's emotion. He neither
could nor wished to be concerned
with IT,
But in the middle of the utter
noon a telegram came. 1t. set
him queerly on edge. 1t said:
'sLeaving-will write you later"
Natalie's initials were signed to
the message.
A chill. dismayed sense Of loss
seized him.

Natalie's telegram tainted his
senses. It's brevity enveloped her
departure In mystery. Following
as it did that revealing scene,
her going took on the color Of a
dramatic and piercing renuncia-
ton.
He saw her vivid face, pale and
chiseled as q gardenia, the family
coral lips losing their color, the
intent eyes turned appealing to
his. He saw her stand SO and
wave her hand in farewell to
him. Excitement Tanned lis
thoughts.

He waited uneasily, yet feverish-
ly, for her letter. He grew warm
wondering what she would say.
He was young and had looked
but little on women. The idea
that this one-so superior to the
vast legion Of womencould be
swayed and dominated and so
played upon by him-this idea
stole secretly with a quivering
heat again and again across his
mind. It looked about furtivsly
to make sure that he was ralf
dreaming, then it seized fire from
his senses and set 1T blazing in
his thoughts.
Would Natalie return? Would
they see each other again? How
would the affair end?
These flushed speculations were
carried on a little outside the
threshold Of his@conscious mind.
They told him complacently that,
he was not concerned-but Just
for the sake of argument 1t was
natural to inquire what hap
pened when such a woman zas
Natalie Herbert became involved
in this kind Of love affair.
