The nurse was waiting for him in the upper hall. She whispered, whis-pered, "Perhaps you can help Mrs. Colvin. We're worried about her. They were so devoted He opened Elinor's door without with-out waiting to hear more, stepped into the room and closed the door after himself. A small night light was burning by the bed. Elinor lay there dry-eyed and too quiet. He crossed the room swiftly to lean above her. "Child !" he whispered. "I haven't anyone now," she said clearly. "You have me as long as you want me. So long as there is anything I can do for you," he assured her. He sat down on the edge of the bed and took one of her small hands between his. It was cold, twitching. He laid a hand on her bared shoulder and noticed that it was as cold as her JSand. She looked questioningly at him. "You're cold, Elinor." -Am I?" He rubbed her hands, suddenly raised her and held her in his arms. For a moment she was rigid. Then she relaxed and he heard, the first deep sob that shook her. "Darling!" he whispered. "Darling "Dar-ling !" A ' half hour later Miss Hem-mingway Hem-mingway entered the room after Barrett's "Come!" answered her knock.

Elinor, wrapped in blankets, blan-kets, was in his arms. She had been crying. Mlsa Hemmingway saw with relief. That reaction was normal' and reassuring. The girl had seemed too unnaturally contained. "I brought another sleeping powder for Mrs. Colvin " "Good!" said Barrett. Elinor sat up. .drank it and then lay back. Miss Hemmingway saw the man's arms tighten as she closed the door. "Am I tiring you?" Elinor asked. "Dearest, you could not tire me this way." HE stroked her hair with a hand that had grown unsteady, bent his head until his cheek touched her cheek that was hot from tears. "Elinor " "Yes?" "I want to ask you to give me another trial. Let me show you that I'm not so changeable as you think. I won't bother you in any way, I promise. Do you believe me?" "Yes " "What I want most from life now is to take care of you. Nothing Noth-ing else matters to me " Her hand moved and for a second sec-ond he felt that it pressed his hand faintly. He touched her soft hair with his lips, stared blindly at the leaping fire. "I want a chance to make you care for me without feeling ashamed." "I'm sorry I said that, Barrett. I know it's my fault that you can't care steadily " "But you'll find I can!" he promised. Why, he asked himself, him-self, had he expected the impossible impos-sible from her? There were no women who did not, in some way, let men down. Marcia had and so had her fiery, sullen mother. Elinor's mother had been brutally frank in her revelations of the failings of her sex. Miss Ella had felt that no form of spying was beneath her. They were obviously all alike, yet sometimes a man found one woman who compelled his love and thus a compromise. He had found Elinor. Doubtless Bob Telfare had held her as he did now but he told himself he must not think of that. He moved gently so that he could look down at her face, pressed against his shoulder. She was so white, so pitiably white. "If I could kiss you," he thought, "and know you kissed no one else!" She whispered softly, "You must be tired " "No!" "'ou're very good to me," she said n a drugged tone that is the result of pain and shock. "I love you," he told her. npHE small French clock struck two sharp notes. Elinor slept and then woke with a cry to" sob anew. He soothed her. JCelt-ber relax, and trembled, knowing that his touch could comfort her. At four he put her into bed without waking her. Then, lowering the night light, he settled in a small chair that stood near. The fire died: the room turned black. It seemed to him, waiting there for any need that she could have of him, that he had never been so close to a human soul as be was to her and without the faintest, physical touch. Perhaps, he rea BIJDDIfcS 1 TO "LTEAMfc TUt b TOO Bf0 CVTV .fcU ? how much msytoil we .ot "exkctv 3 1.32 KOT CO0iTKb TH V'VEAOACH PVLV T"0Y BOUGHT OY Vfcb .

When she woke be was sleep- " ing and the first dim morning sunlight was printed on the floor. As she looked at him Barrett . opened bis eyes and stared at her wonderingly for a short space and. then remembered .? He rose from, ihe chair with 'a stiffened jerk and, band On her shoulder, looked down at her. "Elinor." he said, "I want you to know that I'll do everything 1 can to help you. He thought ot those mornings after his father's death when be, waking, wondered first what troubled trou-bled him and then remembered with aching suddenness. Her eyes brimmed. He dropped to the edge of the bed and drew her into his arms. "We'll get through this, dearest,", dear-est,", he promised. She was clinging cling-ing to him. He felt a sweep of dizziness, a surge of blood that made his ears ring. "You sat here all night?" she asked in a whisper. He closed his eyes. Her hand moving on his arm! "Where else would I be?" he answered as steadily as he could, "so long as I thought you might need anything I could give you?" He held her away a moment, looking look-ing down on her. "You know 1 love you," he added, "but not how much " A GAIN he held her close and 2 knew that she was crying. "Remember what I said. It need not bother you," he heard himself assure her, his voice a little roughened. "I love you," she said hesitatingly. hesitat-ingly. "But 1 loved you before and it did nothing but hurt me." "I'll make you very certain that it won't hurt you from now on." he promised. "I'll give you all the time you want for the test. And now I want you to get up, dress and get out of the house into the sunshine with me. Will you, dear?" "Yes," she answered. She had drawn away from him "I do love you," she said, "but give me time. I'm afraid! I'm afraid of love!" Then she kissed him. Refreshed by a cold tub. Barrett Bar-rett dressed. He felt a contentment content-ment he had not known for weeks. Of course he was deeply sympathetic sympa-thetic with Elinor in her suffering but he had the knowledge that throughout the ordeal be had kept his head. He would give her time and with time perhaps as much trust would come between be-tween them as there could be between be-tween a man and woman. He breakfasted, wandered out of the house and a short half hour later she joined him. She looked worn and spent. He wrapped her in rugs and tucked her into a deck chair on the terrace, her back toward the hushed, gloomy house. Her hand sought bis and rested there. "Mother is coming oy plane," he heard her say. Barrett's brows drew close. For some reason rea-son beyond his dislike for her he dreaded Lida Stafford's coming. (To Be Continued) BY MARTIN GNNO TMTE Vfc , WC. WCG. U.S. AT.
