Stone had drawn his chair up to a
little table and, taking fountain pen
from his pocket, was writing busily on
sheet Of drawing paper.

vised the artist, lis to go back to your

he said. II understand your position
perfectly. I'm hopeful this viii be
precisely the jolt he needs to make
a normal man Of him."
He arrived at the apartment too late.
His patient was already dead.
But this affair signed Smif's re-
lease. She was a failure after all.
Nothing would persuade her that she
had not "fallen down on" her job.
Doctor Newbold used every argument
possible. The man was fore-doomed.
Even # she had married him, 1t would
only have postponed the evil day. She
stood toward her clients in the posi-
tion OF doctor. Suppose doctor
gave up his practice because he lost a
patient? Nothing he could say made
any impression, perhaps because an.
other element In the affair had deter
mined Smif.
She was positive in her conviction
that as Madame Saitou she should
never have reduced. Her instinct had
been correct when It had warned her
that her great size was part of her
equipment. If she had remained the
huge woman she was when she had
inaugurated her business this would
never have happened. No one looked
al the fat with eyes Of romance. She
told herself that she was right In her
decision TO quit.
Far different from Susan's was her
sisters attitude when they all met.
The three young women Joined forces
at the Colony club; all awaited the
coming Of the youngest of the four
as they had on other occasions in the
past. And, just as indIfferently as be-
fore. Sniff wandered in.
The sensation was all and more
than Louise had hoped for. The sis
tiers fairly babbled their amazement.

but there's no denying the money goes

with the problem Of how best to settle
her youngest sister matrimonially.

so absorbed by her interest In the
place and the people that she would
have nothing left for her enterprise in
New York. It would become hated
task, dragging her away from all she
loved. And If that were SO, she would
find herself unable to supply the SYM
pathy and understanding which were
what her clients needed.
Strangely enough, 1t was her first
failure that freed her, and it was a
case very similar to the one that had
led her to think Of making herself
of use in just that way.
The patient came to her from DR..
Henry Newbold. His name was Alfred
Comyn. He was a year or two younger
than she, neither handsome nor the
reverse, alone in the world, tall, thin,
precise In dress and department, In
terested in nothing, not even in his
own symptoms, which rarely fail to
rouse a passing enthusiasm in the
egocentric human being. The mans
impassivity reminded her Of Stone and
the difference between them served to
emphasize the resemblance. Stones
impassivity was transparent shell
Of ice, assumed to protect the surglng
currents beneath. He was all energy.
Alfred Comyn's indifference was lava
crust under which 1t was probable
there was nothing save ashes. Ger
t$snly she could discover no spark or
warmth.
Since she could not be sure of this,
Smif had set about finding him hob
by. Jades, old masters, Chinese por-
celains, stamps, Americana; all had
been tried without response. Doctor
Newbold was encouraged, in that the
young man wished to continue his
visits to Madame Saitou. The doctor
implored her to persist In her at
tempts.
aDon't give up. ! beg you" he said

So. continuing her efforts, the next
time Comyn had an appointment she
met him carrying fluffy Angora kit
ten. While she talked 10 him, she
petted the kitten but made no move to
draw his attention to 1t. Finally she
used an excuse to leave the room and
in passing him dropped the kitten on
his knee.
Hold It till come back" she said
casually. On her return be was still
holding It impasslvely; but, since Il
was purrlng loudly. she deduced that

quired, amazed. "Why have I never
heard Of him before?"
Sniff laughed. This was a question
she was prepared to parry and 1t car
ried the conversation safely away from
Garcia Mason.
"St0ne Is a distant cousin of ours.
I've grown quite fond of him and I
mean you to meet him. soon. He didn't
really want picture Of me, so stop
looking unspeakable things at me. It
happens that he has miniature of

ably like me, and he decided to have
a life-size copy Of 1t made. Knowing

with Monsieur Mabeuse. agreed to
pose because l felt sure an enlarge
ment Of miniature was doomed to be
silly footing failure. A miniature
could be copied from painting pos
sibly, but worthwhile result could
not be reached working the other way
round"
"Hm," said Susan. and that was ali.
For the time that closed the matter.
Smif had devoted more than a little
thought to what she was to do with
her business. She hardly saw how she
could live in Virginia and continue her
work In New York.
Passionately she told herself that
she could not give up Virginia. She
was not called upon to allow her busi-
ness to rule her out Of all the happi-
ness she had looked forward to at
Lovelylea when her duty to Cintra was
done. In her mind she tried to build
up satisfactory compromises, none Of
which was convincing. Once at home,
she knew too well that she would be-

absent. She took 1t from him with a
murmur Of thanks.

cially bar pets. don't suppose you
know anyone who would take 1t, do
you?'
He rose at once to the bait with
what almost amounted to eagerness,
although all he said was: "I'll take
1t myself"
She sent him away with the little
creature buttoned within his coat so
that only its head stuck out.
The next day Comyn called her on
the telephone. He must see her. It
was imperative. She gave him an ap-
pointment and she had scarcely greet
ed him before he asked her to marry
hlm--to marry him at once.
This proposal came as a shock to
Sniff, her business contacts were so
impersonal to her. Afterward she re-
preached herself for having been SO
positive in her refusal. If she had
left him some glimmer of hope the out
come might have been different,
He went directly back to his apart
ment, rang for his man to take the
kitten and shot himself through the
heart.
Smif had telephoned Doctor New
bold at once on Alfred Comyn's depar-
ture, worried over the possible result
OF her refusal. The doctor had been
greatly interested in the evidence of
awakening emotion in his patient and
inclined to regard 1t as favorable
symptom.
"Of course you couldn't marry him.

CHAPTER x

AS the summer wore away, Sniff
grew increasingly weary Of her chosen
occupation. Again and again she made

far short of furnishing the human In

Susan was the earliest Of Smif's Wis

her only as the very dignified and dis
tant hostess Of her formal parties
would not have recognized the grateful
woman who kissed her friend fervent-
ly with tears in her eyes.
'There are no words to tell you our
gratitude" she said chokily. ut would
