solution of the situation by think ins of Nurse Ellesmore and Ros } Conaldine as two separate people.
 He did: and I was bound to agree with him. In other words. 1 gave my consent to his marriage and by the terms of the will that is enough to put Lester in complet} aut hority over his possessions '. Lytton-'
 "'LJm ?"
 "Wha;s the girl like? l don't mean physically - I've been told she's dark and handsome with on@ [, ooked eyebrow or something - but what kind of q wife will she make Lester?
 "Is she well. you know what l mean. Is she going to be his socia; death-Warrant or not? Because 1 Lester will never find any kind Of life outside the society of others Of his type. He is gregarious or not1: ing"
 Lytton shifted miserably in his scat He was not used, he told him. self, to this stepping gingerly about i between lies. half-hes and evasions. He said, desperately, "Old man, l wish l could tell you what yo'l want 10 know but ] can't. And that's the truth"
 Grannock evidently accepted this as normal.
 i No, l suppose you wouldn't | llnow.' he said. You only knew her as a nurse . It's odd, doc, how Lestas description of her has stuck in my mind. It's the uneven eyebrows, I suppose. I find myse.t in relation to myself but as the woman who is to be my brothers S wife,
 The doctor grabbed again at the pretence that Halle and Rose were not one but two.
 T should have thought,ihe said, that you had someone else to think about"
 Grannock smiled. q don't somehow. actively think about Rose,' said Grannock. "Shc : a part of my mind and of my spirit She is my life. . Sorry. Didn't lEow l was given to that kind Of thing, did you? But perhaps it's 1 because I've never actually seen 1 her"
 No, of course you havcnt.'
 "I'm told she is very lovely Nurse Casey very sweetly told ma ! 50. But, Lytton. here's a queer thing. Casey got mixed up with Rose and and that Ellesmore woman. She said Roses eyebrows weren't level, that one was higher than the other. When l exclaimed she said she'd confused the two"
 She's a fool.'
 "They aren't alike, are trey? l don't know why it should have come as such q shock to believe tha. they are even of the same type"
 "There isn't q shadow of rcsem- 1 blance between them." lied the doc | tor hcftily. AS for eyebrows or whatever it is. you can take it from me that damn few people have got perfectly level eyebrows. You | haven't. I haven't. Your brother l has one of the very few symmetr- cal faces I've seen and that's one Of the reasons 1 don't like it."
 You were always a little down | I 1Ct 1 brother.
 "Ncry likely. And talking of faces, old man, just let me see ii that swelling of yours is gone yet.' He plunged into discussion of Crannocli'S general health and kept at it until Hallie was again visible | between the trees.
 'l'm here again, SaXely" she i called, and Lytton recognized this as an agreed signal which would re. lieve Grannocl1 of speculating or her nearness. 'I find I've left some things at Mrs. Bartholomcw's Will | you give me a lift there, DoctCy | Lytton 2"
 With pleasure"
