Most of the excited spectators

Mrs. Sutrow walks with a

as excited over the Morgan in

She is all for Morgan. She said:

man since she met Malcolm and that
she loved him wholly and with a pa
thetic humility, and that Macolm knew
that, and that he was lying when he
expressed any uncertainty as to his re-
sponsibility for the child.
In Michael's mind there were some
things about which a man could not
lie. And Malcolm had added, to the
despicable compromise of lying 10
others, the final and full degradation
of lying to himself; Malcolm had talked
so much of his doubt of the child S
paternity that Michael knew he had
no single doubt of it.
Therefore Michael took to nodding
briefly to Malcolm when he must. He
did not go in for disciplining others
and he did not look on his curtailed
nod as punishment; to him it was only
protection against Malcolm Wetherall
with whom he did not care to have
any contact.
Michael, at that time, sent several
siZable and untraceable contributions
to Jersey who had not, at that moment,
forgiven his opposing the marriage

He had also learned of some episodes
of her pre-marriage life, and these
infuriated him as such truths do in
furiate men who had equally deep
strains on their escutcheons.
He therefore told Jersey that he
couldn't stick it any longer and Jersey
told him to go to hell. The scene was
not pretty. Jersey was in such state
of mind she did not conf1de in Malcolm
that she would become mother.
I'll make a settlement, of course, "
Malcolm stated largely; he had talked
it all over with the Wetherall sisters
who had agreed to anything. anything,
that would free him from that
woman"
"Oh yes, you will" Jersey had
screamed. 4 take a cent from you?

And for that moment, rough or

her on his lap.
Here she relaxed.
Miss Cassandra said It was "crimi-
nall' Michael said nothing; he was
looking down upon her eyelids; they
had closed after several Intellectual
Jerks that were meant to keep them
open. Below her heavy. dark lashes
were deep, purple shadows, shadows
that come only to adults long used to
world weariness; and seeing these,
Michael felt that which he had never
suspected could be in human minds
and hearts although he knew vaguely
that people were fond Of children.
What he felt was fierce tenderness
! that was too acute to be comfortable.
It was "a darned outrage" to keep her
up to these hours, he decided, and ne
was going to have it stopped.
"The poor little thing" murmured
Miss Cassandra.
Michael brushed back a strand OF
golden hair, which had strayed to lie
on Carrolls cheek. She opened ner
eyes to smile up at Michael and then
she stared across the table at Miss
Cassandra's waistline she said, softly,

ground would be heightened.
She had fallen into sound and even
sodden sleep, Michael saw. She was
very thin, he found, running hand
over her knobby little knees. Her feet
seemed to drip from her spindly legs.
She was utterly relaxed and done In.
He motioned Jersey, not far away,
to them. She came with broad grin.
Miss CaSsandra exhibited fair-and-
warmer thaw that made column

Come to NANNY" Jersey sang out.
"She's asleep, Jersey" said Michael.
Jaw GAVIN, Mike: she don't want to

lady over here, all over diamonds, and
she wants mammy's baby to give her
a nice, big kiss; come up and get up!

There we are! And now who's better?''
Carroll stood, swaying and blinking
she lurched a trifle as she followed
Jersey across the slippery floor and
toward "the nice lady all over dia-
monds" who wished "a nice big kiss. -
Michael watched the delivery of the
order with entire repugnance. This
done, man at nearby table beckoned
her with a fat, crooked finger. He
pursed his lips, he smacked them loudly
and he winked at Carroll.

he did not know that faces were turned
