LII the woman in the doorway. Come sit

Mrs. Wharton was his housekeeper and she
knew her place; but under the present stress,
she compromised with this knowledge and
perched rigidly on the edge of chair.

She gave little leap in the chair. How
can you be 50 calm? OF course -" her glance
went around the big room with its books and
cleaning mahogany - its not as though
you need the money. Not many young men

looked out upon the crepe-myrtle bush, its
vulgar pink restrained by the moonlight.

her mouth"
Mrs. Wharton wrinkled her nose Il know"
SHE did know. He'd had to talk to someone
and, during the lonely year since the divorce,
Mrs. Wharton had been his repository, his
safety-valve, his pillar of strength. She knew
all about the quarrel and what led up to it;
and, savagely, she sided with him. He'd come
to wish, lately, that she wouldn't be 50 saw
age about it. 1t had been, he saw now, equally
his fault.
She came to him and clutched his sleeve.
Then what are you waiting for? She won't
track you down for love. Not her." She sour
ried to the door. I'm going to the station
right now and buy your ticket" But she
stopped then and said with her back to him,
with all that money, suppose you'll be
moving away to bigger town."
He swung around from the window Ger

Mrs Wharton, and couldn't get on without

He waited until he heard the front door
close, then he too got his hat and left the

1t had been so senseless. He saw that now.
After he'd come away to hide in this little
town and nurse his wounds, he'd been able to
look at it all more calmly And he knew that
it needn't have happened. A silly fame of
misunderstanding famed by the eager care
