CHAPTER X-continued

IL
WIN was only slightly aware Of her
weeping. He seemed to have entered
into a new and stimulating plane Of
existence. He had passed out OF the
role Of adorer and slave for Ernestine,
he thought, with some indefnable vex-
alton at her In his heart. He felt
himself a man grown now, and full OF
sap. A wife was only one part OF the
complex and fascinating business of
living.
He was late at the office in the
morning, as they had oversight. There
was something heavy against the door,
so that he could scarcely open 1t, and,
on entering, he almost fell over the
lifeless form of John Poole.
He had come back to the office after
his birthday party, and had been at
work. The light still shone over his
drawing board. He had died here,
alone, and win, even in that first
shock, was full of the knowledge that
his death had come, not alone in the
night but with the loss of his gift.
Yet on the drawing board was a pic
ture-his last. 1t was different from
his other work. 1t was bend in the
stream with a great tree overhanging
the water and the meadow beyond
and the figures Of half dozen small
boys naked and white in the sunshine,
playing about the tree and on a spring
board caught beneath a great root.
There was in 1t no mockery, no satire,
no Glowing. 1t was simple, kind.
Staring at it, before he went to give
the alarm, viii felt sure that this
work of the skilled pencil was the ex-
ternalization after half century of
some remembered scene Of his boy
hood.
viii grieved honestly for John Poole
and thought often and mysteriously
about that last picture. If John Poole
could draw like that, why had he
never done so? The answer to this
was disturbing.
viii established his rights to Poole's
cartoon ideas only to find them worth
less. Contracts ran out, strips piled
up unused, and he found himself work
ing against vast Indifference, more
crushing, more impenetrable than that
which he had fought for a place for
Poole's strip. But his new inner
activity carried with 1t such personal
joy that he could not be sufficiently
chagrined by the collapse of his bust
pocc opfornriSa and the danger I'm his
income.

Rothschild Maxims Put in Alphabetical Order

The following maxims were hung
in Baron Rothschild's bank where he
could show them to ambitious young
men: Attend carefully to details Of
your business; Be prompt in all things;
Consider well, then decide positively;
Dare to do right, fear to do wrong;
Endure trials patiently; Fight life's
battles bravely. manfully; Go not into
the society of the vicious; Hold in
tegrity sacred; Injure not another's
reputation, nor business; Join hands
only with the virtuous; Keep your
mind from evil thoughts; Lie not for
any consideration; Make few acquant-
ances; Never try to appear what you
are not; Observe good manners; Pay
your debts promptly Question not the
veracity of a friend; Respect the
counsel of your parents; Sacrifice
money rather than principle; Touch
not, taste not, handle not intoxicating
drinks Use your leisure time for i'm
provement; Venture not upon the
threshold of wrong; Watch carefully

Ernestine's with a penetrating look.

CHAPTER XII
The Rift in the Lutte

Il think you'd better go to Pastano's,
don't you, Ernestine?" viii asked one
night in June. The children sat at the
supper table with them, and the heat,
turning more sultry with dusk, was
already sitting.
Its one way Of getting rid Of us"
said Ernestine, a quality of familiar
bitterness in her voice.
Will made no answer for moment,
then he said, with more gentleness
than had become his wont, Il think
perhaps it'll be good thing for all Of
us. 1t will give me chance to work
out some ideas here in the house alone.
and it will be rest and change for

wrong again." said Ernestine, and
laughed unha2pily.
They were poor again now, and 1t
was so hot. It was necessary for them
to 20 either to Pastano's or to man,
mas, and this fact spoiled the pros
pect of summer at the lake. She
wondered why she was reluctant to
leave viii when they rubbed each
other so raw!
1t was Not like 1t had been, that
other hard time, when they were close
heart against heart, sharing every
thought and feeling. For now, she
was poor, but he was not. She was
looking upon the face of poverty that
John Poole had depicted for her years
ago when she was careless bride.
But viii, either because Of longer and
closer acquaintance with Lack, or,
more probably, because Of his own
secret happiness, was not dismayed-
was, in fact, unfeeling.
All day long, with the front bed
room door shut, he worked In there on
drawings which he would not let her
see, but which he could not seem to
sell. Their difficulties, her fears for
the future. did not pierce him. He
was intolerably good-natured and
happy. Ernestine was filed with
deep despair and vexation with him
that he could be SO casual.
AS she sat, trying to swallow
little of the food she had prepared so
carefully, Ernestine saw ahead Of her
a long vista of the years in which she
washed and ironed Wills clothes,
tended to his bodily needs. for food,
for comfort, for sex. and was for ever
outside the circle of his reality, a per-
son whom he saw only to forget when
his glance left her. She could bear
any hardship, and pain. But to do
without love-this she could not bear.
