Again he kissedt her hands and
she chung to him. He kissed her
lips, then moved abruptly away.
At the door he paused and turned.

"how happy you've made mel"
Then he was gone.
Elinor began to cry again but
this time they were tears Of hap
piness. How could she have hurt
him as she had? His future was
what she should be thinking
about-not his past. She knew
how utterly she loved him. She
had not deserved all Barrett had
brought her. Barrett had said
she was the zone woman in his
life. Dear, dearsBarrett!
She lived again those moments
when he had held her close in his
arms, declared he would wait pa
tiently il only she could care
again in the old way. Obi" she
breathed aloud. This happiness
was real!
Marcia arrived the next day
after Bob andeBarrett had driven
to the nearest links, their golf
bags poking from the car.
Marcia, looking dramatic in
black. stepped from her car. She
saw Elinor andI turning. saw Ger

is my happiness. learned this
morning that can never have an
other child. You'll let me have
him back, won't you? You won't
fight to keep my boy?"
"I don't understand" Elinor
said. Poor passionate Marcia!
Barrett had admitted that she was
often "little difficult" Was this
one of the vagaries of mind
turned sick because Of her loss?
Marcia moved slowly toward a
chair into which she sank
YEARLY. For moment she
leaned back, her heavy eyelids
closed. Then, looking again at
Elinor. she said:
I'm talking about my first
marriage" She nodded toward
Gerald. Hes my son. you know.
Barrett shielded me. I've been

that it was because | let him do

But you mustn't think such
things, dear!" Elinor said hotly
That's morbid. She too
dropped to a chair close to Mar

become absurdly weak. Barrett,
poor Barrett!
II made Barrett promise not to
tell anyone but presumed he had
told you!" Marcia went on.

 She was so young, and so fond of gaicty: she blossomed like a flower in the artificial light of admiration and what she called life" he could not see her in little house in some obscure country village, which was all he would be able to afford to give her. Yes. Bernie would be the greatest problem he knew-the last hurdle at which perhaps he would finally crash.

 "You must see my dear fellow ... no fault of yours. Real bad luck. If there is anything can do. ..."
 The usual empty platitudes, L tered with the full knowledge that there was nothing anybody could do.
 A shooting star shot suddenly across the blackness of the sky and fell.
 "As I have fallen" Nicholas told himself grimly.
 His career had been as brilliant. as rapid and as short as that of the blazing thing that had just passed beyond his vision-to fall-where?

 Yes, that was true enough, but 1t was hard luck that the only time he had played it seriously. his whole career should be wrecked.
 The girl had been nothing to him. and even he could not say what crazy impulse it was that had sent him dashing to her rescue.
 It hadn't been at all picturesque either. and if she had kept her head she would have been quite safe.

 Twenty past two! Bernie ought to be in. He had not liked to refuse to let her go to Roy Killick's. party, perhaps he had even been glad to let her go-to postpone the moment for as long as possible, when he would have to tell her that he was on the scrap-heap. S5
 He had not undressed-whatw was the use when one could not sleep?
 New York lay like flashy jewel far below him: dizzy drop down to the street where the cars, and taxi-cabs sped along like gleaming spiders. It would be certain death if fellow stood out on the ledge and let go. and he wouldn't be the first who had found it impossible to find sufficient courage to walk calmly away from the, glare of a great position into nothingness.
 There had been girl in Holly wood. poor little devil who had once played opposite him. He had liked her in way. she had no req. vice, but she had been weak. and success had gone to her head like wine. A dose of poison had finished her.
 There was a slight movement in the room behind him, and he turned sharply to see his wife standing in the open door that divided their apartments.
 She was a little flushed. and her eyes were bright. She took a step forward and asked. What are you doing. Nick?"
 "Nothing-looking at the stars"
 He moved towards her, limping painfully. and he was quick to see the little shadow of distaste that crossed her charming face.
 "Well?" she said. Did Jaffer come?"
 "Yes."
 "What-what did he say?"
The Daily Alaska empire., 1933-07-15

 Boyd said nothing; he felt as if he were talking to stranger. And yet such short time ago she had been so much in love with him. Once or twice he had felt unhappy about it. afraid that she cared more than he did. 84z e ass,. Bernie had loved being the wife of Nicholas Boyd. the great film star! Now she was nothing. She had fallen with him and was just the wife of man with limp and a scared face. -...s.
 She said again. almost fearfully, "I can't live in England"
 "I don't ask you to-"
 After a moment she said Cant we stay Leref It's no use giving up hope. l thought the doctors said" He turned and looked atyher.
 "The doctors have said that they can do no more. This is the face I've got to live with for the rest of my life. All the kings horses. and all the kings men can never mend Humpty Dumpty again" he added cynically.
 For moment their eyes held one another-hers making no effort to disguise their dismay-zhorror?-. no. he tried to believe 1t was not that; his-hard. in steady defiance.

 It was two o'clock in the morn- ing, but far down in the street below, the hum of ceaseless traffic and the sharp hoot-hoot of motor horns filled the night.
 Nicholas lay on his back. his hands folded beneath his head, his eyes fixed unseeingly on the patch of sky which was all that was visible through the open window-sky like the black slinky velvet of a woman's gown, hung with sparkling dia- monds.
 "Finished!"

 "Beast!" n r.i. Boyd said nothing: he was sitting on the side of the bed now, staring down at the floor.
 Bernie came step nearer, slowly, as if she was almost afraid of him. "yXyHAT else did he say?" she w asked again.
 "He said what expected he would say-my contract is can celled. I'm no more good to him."
 "Nick!" f as
 He laughed at the dismay in her voice. but now he did not look at her. He was wondering if she would come to him and put her arms round his neck and tell him that it made no difference. that she still loved him.. finished as he was. He longed so desperately for comfort.
 But Bernie only stood there. the white wrap falling back from her bare shoulders. her lips parted.
 What does it mean?" she asked at length.
 "It means that must, suppose, go back home"
 She caught her breath on sharp sound.
 "To England?"
 Its my home"
 "And-me?" she asked.
