They all three left the place together
and LADY Blanche stepped into taxi
outside. departing with a little wave OF
the hand. Gerald. with sigh OF reSlg-
nation. entered upon his task. Arrived
at his destination in the neighoorhood
Of Sayille Row. ne took his tailor on one

companion.

some other direction.
Thanks very much for looking after
my things" he said,f turning to Gerald
as he took up his hat and stick.
That's all right" was the careless
response. Take care of the family
treasure"
Have another cocktail before you 60"
Lady Blanche suggested abruptly.

with his hand upon the curtain. II
found that last one little strong.
Look here"
"Well?"
you've asked me a lot Of questions,
both of you Can l ask one?"
Rather" Lady Blanche assented.
why the devil are you both so miser-
able?" he inquired.
"Miserable?" she repeated thought
fully.
We'll" he pointed out, you people
ere just as difficult for me to under
stand as l am for you. You've left a
mansion in Grosvenor Square, or wher
eyer it is, to CONS and live in news"
he added, turning to Lady Blanche.
You speak of dining ct home as though
1t were some terrible infection and you
look the picture of gloom when YOU talk
about the party you're going to tonight.
Mr.. Carnham's just the same. He
groans at having to dine at his club,
which seemed to me very attractive
place. He doesn't want to go to the
dance afterward, and he speaks OF a
supper party to some young American
ladies as though it we're some sort of
Sunday school meeting he had to at
tend. What's the trouble?"
our young friend here has presented
us with a problem" Gerald declared, his
fingers strcying toward the cigarette
box. What do you say. Blanche?"

it, I'm sick Of the whole caboodle of

Exactly my case" Garnham &C
knoWlcdged, except that I can't even
pay my creditors
Martin studied them both with new
interest. Lady Blanche, with her freely
displayed gray silk-clad legs; the
strange but very beautiful garment she
wore, trimmed, he noticed, with chin
chilla fur and fastened at the bosom
with q massive Georgian brooch con-
green; her face triumphing over unnec-
eSsary cosmetics. with its appearance of
strength and perfect health, yet with It's
expression partially spoiled by the
shadow of brooding unhappiness. The
man. his well shaped but insignificant
features disfigured by the discontinued
droop Of his mouth.

after which Gerald. with sigh OF re-
lief. glanced at his watch.
Half past A. he announced. Il am
going round to my club for bit. II

You think she meant it," Martin
asked difidently.

thing Gerald replied, as he turned
away with little nod. NO. 3lA Picca-
dilly at 10 minutes to II
Martin inspected the rooms and
promptly took them. For two hours
afterward he wandered about in the
bookshops of Charing Cross and its pur-
iieus. It was here for the first time
that he felt a real sense Of satisfaction
at his well filled pocketbook. One by
one he selected and put on one side
the books which in other days he had
left regretfully upon their shelves. His
tastes were catholic enough. There was
a Sterne he had always coveted, Bor-
row which on each of his previous visits
he had abandoned with regret, Field
ing. Don QuiXote and a MarloWe
in his little pile when ne had finished,
besides a few Of the modern poets ana
Decameron He left the place with
a sense Of stimulation. Here at least
he was in touch with the world which,
in a way. he understood. He pictured
to himself engrossing evenings COM
Portable room. whisky and soda for
which he did not have to send out, a
student lamp and at his elbow choice
of his precious books, or. with the Sum-
mer coming on, a run down to the
country in his new car to be presently
acquired. lounge in the woods some
where with a well filed cigarette case
and a chosen volume. Other dreams
were as yet stadowy. Maisie he could
not keep altogether out of his thoughts,
| but Maisie was a type rather than a
person. Her blatant infidelity was still
| ranking In his mind. He felt himself
| cynical about all women-the Lady

/ worse.
Gerald kept him waiting only about
/ five minutes

conflded as he gave the address TO the

Does Lady Blanche not live with her
parents?" Martin inquired.

SAYS she's going to start. At present,
heaven knows 1t must cost her hal1 her
allowance In cocktails"
"Will any one else be there this after
noon?" Martin ventured.
Might be-" was the laconic response.
Sometimes a crowd comes over from
Claridge's after dancing"
They descended from the taxi In
back street in Mayfair, entered YARD,
assembled an outside staircase and came
TO a door painted bright green, on which
was a brass plate the size of visiting
card, engraved only with the letter b.
There was an electric bell but Gerald
turned the handle and entered a hall
which was barely the size OF a cup
board. The curtains on the left hand
side were pulled apart and L@dy
Blanche, in a robe of black silk covered
with Chinese embroidery, welcomed
them with q cocktail shaker in her
hand.
Come in" she invited Not a soul
here. Come and see how the poor live,
MIR. Barnes"
Martin looked around him without
understanding The room was smaller
even than his own bed-sitting room,
with white walls divided into panels by
a thin oak skirting. the spaces filled
with fantastic pictures done in rough
crayons The furniture consisted chiefly
of one enormous divan hcapcd with
black cushions and one gate-legged
black oak table in the middle of the
room upon which was tray with half
a dozen glasses and some bottles. The
carpet was of a deep, dull purple, and
at the end of the room there were cur
tainS of the same shade.
you see my whole abode" she said
ION the other side Of the hen is my
hedroom-co isn't it? Some day
must show you my bathroom. It's quite
a gem"
She paused to shake vigorously the
silver receptacle she YVES holding and
filed three foaming glasses. Martin
was uncertain for moment as he raised
his to his lips whether to indulge in any
Of the forms of salutation to which he
was accustomed. His companion solved
his difficulty.
Here's our respects to you, dear
hostess" he said do i detect e faint
odor of absinthe?"
Scarcely drop" she answered.
To Martin 1t seemed the most deli
cious and the most potent drink he had
ever essayed He slipped 1t and looked
around in amazement. A dukes daugh-

The latter obeyed and Martin also
helped himself from the wooden box
mechanically.
mfr. Garnham has been very kind"
he acknowledged. He has told me OF
some rooms which / have taken and l
think I have ordered all the things
want"
And how are you going to spend this
EVENING"" she inquired. Are you going
to read another of Bacon's essays?"
He remembered those heavy brown
paper packages and for moment lost
his stiffness of manner.
| II bought quite a lot of books this
! afternoon" he conf1ded. Il shall I'M
pack them and look into one or two, l
expect"
"Moderns?"
Classics. most OF them. / don't know
what to ask for in modern books"
She sighed.
What pity one hasn't the time. -

stodgier than ever with these undirected
efforts at culture. You do badly need a

and what I don't. One can alter ex-

She detected faint note Of resent
ment in his tone and abandoned the

| the couch with her hands Clasped be-
| hind her head, she seemed to forget her
guest.

Lady Blanche yawned.

A new idea struck Martin as ne I'M

asked bluntIy.
