intently regarding her. Then he
asked.
why should it be odious to you?
You say you don't dislike him? And
would, of course. tell him that you
only wished to know him better before
deciding finally"
n She made no answer in words, but
nervous tremor ran through her,
Hilary felt suddenly immensely sorry
for her. There was something here
that he didn't understand. In a still
gentler voice he said:
BE frank with me, won't you,
Celia? / want to understand quite
clearly what you mean in saying that
you will never marry. Is 1t only an
ordinary girlish within, or is it some
thing more?"
Much more" said Celia
He could scarcely hear her. He
hesitated, then ventured:
do you mean that the idea of mar
riage, with any one, is repulsive to
your"
She made a motion of assent with
her bent head, and now he noticed
that her clasped hands were shaking
among the black folds on her lap. In
a flash he saw again the little stream
at the convent and her still figure on
the bench where they had sat. 1t was
when she had spoken of her father
that her hands had trembled like that.
Comprehension flooded him. and with
1t compassionate tenderness.

She was silent, her head still bent,

Now he drew up & chair and sat near
her.

it very odd in an old bachelor like
me to be pleading loves ,case--but you
are so young-there should be so

can't bear to think that a fixed idea
will perhaps cut you off from all that
yours by right. Won't you try to
leave your mind open, not clenched
like this against what's natural and
beautiful? Because where love is,
marriage Is beautiful.
Her answer was more distinct this
time.
You have never married." saidSshe.
This riposte utterly routed him. In
spite of his sorrow and their being
in Laura's favorite room, he would
have laughed out but for the servants
who might have heard. When he
could command a sufficiently serious
voice he said
You have me there, my dear"
Then he added, and she could tell by
I his tone that he was smiling now.
though she still kept her eyes down:
THE fact is, Celia, we're two very
queer people, the pair of us, I'm
afraid-and since I've tried to do my
duty, and failed in persuading you
l might as well confess that I feel
about marriage pretty much as you
do
II know it,"
He jumped mentally. and was with
in an ace of jumping physically.
You know it?''
i've always known it-felt it. per-
haps l ought to say"
Recovering from his establishment,
he thought 1t again his duty to en-
tighten her somewhat.
1T is because I've never loved any
one enough that I've not married,
Celia"
And it's because I know / shall
never love any one enough that /
shan't marry
This reiteration of her resolve never
to marry brought before him again
the vexed question of her future.
They were now not only in a dilemma,
but an impasse. Her hands had stop
ped trembling; she looked to him even
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1926-02-28

And all at once her hands began
shaking again. She murmured some
thing. He bent to catch what she
said, but couldn't hear, and asked
her to repeat it. She repeated 1t
clearly:
There is the open door"
He stared incredulously, couldn't
take in that she knew what the quota.
ton meant, then realized from her
set little face that she knew very
well it's meaning.
"Celia!' he cried aghast.
He was a great man. He didn't
think it was wrong-when there was
nothing else to do"
Celia! Celia!" cried Hilary again,
and sitting down beside her he caught
both her hands in his, holding them
tight and hard, as if holding her back
from some sudden madness.
She was quivering all over now, but
her pale face had again it's locked
expression. To all his remonstrances
she only answered:
1T wouldn't be doing any harm to
any one"
Don't say that again. he ordered
vehemently. Are you yourself no
one? Haven't you any idea of what
should feel? Don't you know that
I'm very fond of you? That I'm only
trying 10 HnO out the DeSt way OF
making you happy"
He had to put an arm about her
shoulders to control the convulsive
shuddering that ran through her. 1t
was like embracing the thin shoulders
of a child.
Answer me, Celia? You believe
that 1 have a sincere affection for
you, don't your"
"You-are-good," she managed.
She wasn't crying. Her greenish
eyes, wide open, had that strange
misty look that he remembered. and
were fixed as if on something far
away-on that terrible open door. :"
1t was at this instant that he was

more pathetic, though, than she had
at first. That black gown was not
only piteous; it was most unbecoming
to her. He reflected how barbarous
the custom of mourning" was, and
at the same time there came back to
| him his last nights picture of her in
| a brocade gown and the great carved
| chair. What pity it was that he
couldn't take her to live with him.
There was really something very en-
! gaging about her queer unexpected
, ness.
You know, Celia" he said now,
having come to the conclusion that
| candor was the best way of dealing
with the situation "if only people
weren't so stupid I'd like very much
to have you under my own roof
| adopt you, so to speak," he ended,

would like it, too" answered Celia.
Something wistful in her voice, and
| her brief glance at him, seemed to
suggest, Couldn't it be done, in spite
of people?"
He positively didn't know whether
she had taken in what he meant.
"Of course it's impossible though
| you know that. don't your"
20. yes" said Celia. You wouldn't
want them to say that l was your
mistress"
This absolutely f1oored him. There
was no installing what her tone i'm
piled this time. 1t was as if she had
said in words: II shouldn't mind but
you would"
He took to pacing the room again,
his thoughts more aimless and tOpsy-
turvy than ever. Coming back to her,
he said
"Well, Celia-I confess I'm non
plussed. What l wish to do for you, I
can't. What you wish to do for your
self, don't want you to. Have you
any suggestion to make?"
No. I'm sorry she said.

educated her to be a teacher, and that
she had failed to qualify for one.

careful politeness. what sort of work

Something with my hands" she
answered, looking down at them.

AS he said nothing in reply to this,
she reflected a moment, then went on:

This startled Hilary out of his III

coming his irritation, at her childish
lack of comprehension.

Hilary broke in on her.
There's no need to repeat your

ing more and more stilted as his anger
rose. What I should like to hear is
your alternative plan, if you have one,
and will do me the favor to tell me
of it,"
She looked full at him for a second
or two, and on her closed lips was the
smile that gave her face that locked
expression.

do some kind of work." she asked.

FRENCH SEEK PASSAGE
OF 25-YEAR-OLD BILL
Would Give Appeals to Persons
Convicted of OBTAINING Presi-

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, February 27~Among the
bills introduced In this session % the
Chamber of Deputies is one to amend
a bill passed by the Senate &c years
ago which has been slumbering in the
archives of the chamber ever since.
Regularly every year during a quarter
of a century that bill has appeared on
the chamber calendar, but no de-
cis1on has resulted. A measure passed
by one of the chambers of Parlia-
ment does not die at the end of the
session, as 1t does in the American
Congress. If It is not acted upon by
the other house.
The bill in question was framed 10
regulate the procedure in cases Of
offense against the President of the
Republic. providing penalties for what
would be les ma jestie' in a mon
archy. 1t would give the correctional
court Jurisdiction over such cases. II
the bill ever passes. persons convicted
Of defa ming or using violence toward
the head Of the state, would be able
to appeal.
No such cases come before the
assiZes court, from whose decisions
there is no appeal except on the
ground of faulty procedure.
