But an increasing restlessness was
on him; a restlessness that made
even the warm sunlight, the eX-
quisite loneliness OF the sea and the
unfailing softness Of the bays fam
Gus breeze from the south, seem
cloying and over-sweet. And he
brought 1t all out, or tried to, one
evening.
Ardath was In her dressing room
dressing for an entertainment to
which they were about to 60. Paul
sat on a chaise Tongue, lighted a
cigaret, smoked modify for a mo-
ment, and then said, Dearest, what
do you say we chuck 1t all?"
"Chuck it," she repeated. Star
tied, she turned to look at him;
In her left hand she still held up
the hand mirror in which she had
been inspecting some detail OF
other of her makeup. "Chuck
1t? You mean-our life with each
other?"
Sweetheart! No! NO. mean
this this life here on the
bay. How would 1t be II we up
rooted ourselves and went - went
somewhere and made fresh start?'
She laid the mirror down. Her
face had grown pale at his first
words; now the blood returned to It
again.
where would you go?" . she
asked. What would you dor" >.
OOH" Paul hesitated. I'D get
clear away from this place and
and all Of these people. I'd"
He stopped, and very painstak-
ingly stamped a cigaret butt in ar
ashtray.
do you know what I've always
half-wanteG to do?" he went on at
last. 1--WE always thought I might
like to live-"he looked at her
doubtfully, then continued - ITO
live on ranch. In Canada, perhaps
or the western United States, or
even In the Argentine"
She said. "A ranch?"
Eyes. Please don't laugh, dear
est"
I'm not"
"You see-I toured all of those
countries. years ago, when I was
prince. There's something about
that life-ranch life, I mean. The
country Is so big-in Manitoba, say,
or Montana-you have that feeling
Of freedom, as If you had plenty Of
room to breathe and move and live.
And the life Is so good, too. It's
useful, dear, 1t means something.
You can feel that you're accom-
plishing something, pitting yourself
against nature, actually doing things
with your own hands-"
She got up and came over TO him.
She sat beside him and tenderly
put her arms around him.

q, week 1t had been forgotten. But
II did leave a faint stain on the
public mind, Paul knew, II no more
| than O vague impression that the
former king Of Northumbra was a
hot-tempered brawler.
Some morbid instinct for self
punishment led Paul to collect the
Partisan journals and read the ac-
counts of the affair accounts
which, In the repeating, were gro
tesquely distorted. He looked at
them, in his hotel room, with a
xueful smile on his lips.
Don't, dear" begged Ardath.
"You hurt yourself when you
don't need to. What does 1t mat

very little, suppose" said Paul.
. "And yet-look at this one" He held
up an article for her TO read.
THAT the runaway king should
fight Is neither surprising nor dis
turbing," said this article. What Is
surprising Is that he should have
been guest in the house Of the
DUG de Montmiral where the en-
counter took place. That house Is
Frances most distinguished salon;
there one may meet artists, Scien-
fists, musicians, creative folk who
are far removed from the thought
/, less crowd that infests the lovely
Bay st. Francis. What, one asks,
was this self-deposed monarch do
! ing In that company? It is far more
startling to learn that the distin-
guished patron would have him as
u guest than to learn"

L Swedish Finnish clergyman
and economist who lived from
1870 TO 1903, might renounce his
early ideas, If he would continue
to champion the cause Of the poor
and oppose the spread Of indus
trialism. But, in his time, the fac
tory system was just beginning to
threaten the future Of the guilds
and 70 draw people from the small
country towns.
As a member Of the Swedish
parliament. he opposed protective
tariffs, which he said would ham,
per free foreign trade, and voted
against granting bounties to FISH,

do So After ALL even guttersnipe gosspmonger like Bay
