CHAPTER II

Menelaos looked worried. 1t may
have been the accumulation of do
nestle disaster, or it may have been
that he was about to demonstrate
his ability to make Helen do what
he wanted, but whatever the reason,
he was haggard and suddenly old.
He walked up and down several
timse, without any gain or conf
dence. Helen seemed prepared for
something. She had an indefinable
air of being amused. She never
looked better.
I'D like to talk with you about
two matters" he said. "One of them
I think will please you. Pyrrhus
accepts your invitation"
"Your invitation" said Helen.
well, he accepts the invitation,
and will shortly be here. He prob
ably is on the way now. I hope you
are satisfied"
What about?"
"You are having your own way
aren't you? A fine time to entertain
him, with our household so--upset!"
There couldn't possibly be a
worse time" said Helen. II sug-
gested the visit, of course, but when
saw how impossible it would be to
receive him Hospitality, begged you
to postpone the visit.
"You wouldn't listen to me, and
now you are sorry he is coming.
But shall do my best to entertain
him, and he probably won't stay
long"
ION the contrary" said Menelaos,
"if you do your best to entertain
him. he probably will never leave.
That's what I've been afraid Of, all
along. I think you had better keep
in the background as much as pos
sible and perhaps Hermione had
better, also.
"I1l entertain him. The more I
know of the men of the younger
generation, tibet less I care to see
my daughter with them"
Helen smiled at him, and he took
to walking up and down again.
