Just what has your mother oldsou Elinor had dropped to the toot t the chaise tongue. Hands .Masped on her kneea, -she looked like a frightened child on the verge of tears. Barrett" re w a cbair near and sat down, leaning toward her. He looked so big and strong, yet gentle, she thought. Always be had been gentle. But he had been cruel, too, and unfair to her. He bad cheated though she had given him a heart filled with truth and eager response to his lore. "Mother told me that that ron have an adopted son at the oome of a widow who Uvea In the country. And that the child looks like you. Why haven't you ever told me? Why did you adopt him. Barrett?" "I can't tell you that." he heard himself answer In a dull monotone. "Don't you think I should have known?" "I don't know," he answered, still dully. "I I told you everything that mattered. Barrett!" "When the affair, involves a woman: a man cannot always tell everything " he stated. Her cheeks burned with anger roused by a sharp flame of Jealousy. Jeal-ousy. So he was still sheltering this woman who had come before her! "Ton admit you are sheltering some woman?" he asked. "Yes, Elinor." His eyes troubled trou-bled her. He was suffering. Even BOOTS AND HER GKFL NOO TEM VOVVSTER IS ttvn wty lUr- J v r TINMAN AB.t 'km VVT J- - K TO 6THa If I AT-A 1 X 1 1 1 1 , 1 WASHINGTON TITBBS ffASH,6Att, OOM'T UKE THE tOtk OP HMINO .MOTM , rrvr. roe.t MOTVCA BUT, GEE WlZ r tt J kME 32 s ' 4trrCiiiM0' through her own pain she saw that. "You knew her before you knew me?" "Yes. dear " "Long before?" "Years." "You wen; very young ? "Yes. and 1 haven't felt young since except at those times when you have shown me that you cared for me." "Please!" she begged, shrinking. shrink-ing. TTE dropped bis face to his hands, groaned and then sat erect, shifting uneasily in his cbair. Then again, forearms on his knees, be sat forward but did not meet ber eyes. Instead be looked down at the rug at his feet. If he looked at her he knew he might easily blurt out the whole story. "I wish you could believe," he said slowly and miserably, "that things are not always as they seem, dear that 1 love you truly and as you should be loved, that I would never hurt you willingly, rt's it's killing me not to explain!" ex-plain!" "And yet you can't because of some woman?" she questioned. He drew a deep breath that did nothing to aerate his sodden lungs. "No." he answered flatly. They sat for some moments, he looking down at the rug and she at him. She had been so certain, so pitiably and youthfully certain, cer-tain, that she had reached Utopia, she realized. And now she was learning that the man she had been so proud to call ber husband, hus-band, waa of the same mold as the rest. "Please go!" she said. "I'd rather be alone. I want to think it all through " Of course there was no thinking think-ing It through. She could only tell herself that she had been a fool to expect more. What had she seen in life but the same story, written with varying degrees de-grees of sordidness over and ever again? One thing she knew, growing hot from resentment, and that was this child had a right to have a place near his father, to have all he would have had with a different birth.. Her thoughts veered. For a while she forgot the boy Barrett's boy. How she had loved Barrett and how frankly she had let blm know it! Doubtless (she trembled at the thought), he had compared her caresses with others. TTIGGINS tapped on the door -t-- and she opened it to take a note. Barrett had written, "Dear, please eat some dinner. ' You could have it in your room. Don't make me more unhappy than 1 must be. Please keep well B." "I'll have dinner here in my room. Higgins." she said. "I have a slight headache " "Yes, Mrs. Colvin. I'm sorry about the headache." Higgins an swered and tiptoed away. The night seemed endless. Street noises thinned and for a short space were almost gone. Then trucks began to rumble and milk bottles to elbow one another, rattling. Someone passed whistling whis-tling and a coarse broom rustled on the pavement. BUDDIES j EC WOO ii TWE 1 CAM OO ABOUT, OT F HE c 1 tine i-iJ t v j r 60LD PIRST? 1 1 - i Ul 1 L - I I I Elinor heard Barrett moving about at four and through the crack below the door she saw a light which continued t burn as long as her eyes were open. When the first of day turned windows to oblongs of slate-gray she slept. She woke to hear rain and to see the somber light that comes with a steady downpour. She dressed awkwardly, feeling the shortness' of the' night and her new misery. :'' Barrett was at 4tbe breakfast table when she appeared. Hig gins wasyftn the rooai and Barrett arose, greeting her as usual witb a kiss. "I didn't expect you dowtt; he said. "I waa afraid you hadn't slept well." "I didn't. You didn't sleep well either, did you?" "No, dear." Higgins was gone now so that the "dear" was not a pretense. She saw that he could not eat and the mere thought of food nauseated her. "What win we do?" she asked "It's horrible for both of us!" "God knows!" he answered ho) lowly. "Barrett. I want to talk to you when you have the time " "Any time you say." he answered. an-swered. "After breakfast then. In the library?" "If you like," be agreed. Bui what, be wondered, was there to be said? He pushed aside his plate and rose as she was rising. rpHE library windows opened on a little square of court. Elinoi sat down before one of the open windows and Barrett drew a cbair close, facing hers. But Elinor did not begin. She, too. was waiting. wait-ing. "Of course," he said slowly, "you . can have a divorce." He saw the intensifying pain in her eyes and his heart warmed He went on eagerly, "I suppose you'd want that. Is there any chance that you don't?" "No," she told him. "Not now I wouldn't want people to know, for one thing. Besides I am as happy here as I could be anywhere. any-where. If you don't mind, I'd rather just stay on until you don't want me " "But, Elinor, that will make life Imprisonment in this bouse for you. I'll always want you here. I don't see how I could let yon go. I can't even imagine life without you. dear!" He was looking down at bis hands which be twisted She wanted to lay a hand upon hie arm and say. "What is the matter with us? We love each other. Why must we make each other so miserable?" But she could not: she could not. "What do you want?" Barrett asked slowly, raising bis eyes to meet hers. "I think I'd like to go somewhere some-where in the country and try to make a home for that child." she answered. "Your adopted son. It isn't right for him to be kept away like that." "Very well." For a space they were both silent: then he spoke. "I have a chance to go with an expedition expedi-tion to South America. Shall I Her heart seemed to shrink, to grow small and become cold. "It you want to." she responded. (To Be Continued) BY MARTIN t MUG tJPOH MB. H 7. MfcMSTtMfc , T. "TOO V0OU VINO. TO PCT OM Good u&av&ms; LISTEN!.' another dog TEAMf r .
