at once, and rame toward her.
'In take I am wanted? What do

Hit voice was consiraineH. and
hi eyt wre hot as he looked at
the sirl'a white fare.

She put her hand to hrr throat, at

ill."
TVre was a little silence; then
Trtrr N'othard taid with an effort:
"I am torry for that. I bad hoped
the wan all right I will go up and
nee if there it anything more I tan
do." But he ttill waited a moment,
only turning away -when Ninette
gave no tign of hit pretence.
She knrlt down by the lire and
held out her handt to it warmth.
Dorothy was going to be ditfig
ured for life! There teemed no
room for any other thought in all
the world. It mrant that hrr blender
claim on Teter't regard and affection
was fettered for oil time with bonds
that noth'tig could evrr break!
"N'ot that I knew he really
wanted to break them," Ninette told
hertelf hurriedly. And yet deep
down in her heart the had known it
did know it.
Peter loved her a the loved him.
All along although the had been too
blind to tee it. her happiuejs had
lain with him, and now that the had
awakened to the truth it was too late.
The tragedy of the evening had
raised an impassible barrier between
them.
It teem a long time before the
heard Nothard descend the stairs
again. He came into the room quiet
ly, and shut the door behind him.
Ninette did not turn or raise her
head, and he came over to where she
knelt, stooped and raised her to her
feet.
He was very, white, but his voice
was steady when he spoke.
"You know what the doctor says?"
"Yes."
"They told you?"
"That Dorothy may be disfigured
for life?" i
"Yes." '
"There was a long silence. She
felt as if her lids were weighted and
as if she could never raise them
again. Then Northard said hoarse
ly: "You know what that means for
me that I cannot break my engage
ment, if Dorothy wishes to hold me
to it?" ...
Ninette found her voice then, the
hot color rushing in waves over her
white face.
"Why do you tell me this?" she
asked stormily. "What has your en
gagement got to do with me. and
whv should you wish to break it?"
. She tried to free herself from
him, but he held her fast by her
arm so that she could not run away.
"It's not the time for us to pretend
to one another." he said. "It's a
time for the truth to be spoken. I
love yoq you know that. I love you
'. with every beat of my heart, and I
believe you' love me. Ninette, do
yon love me?"
She tried to deny it. but somehow
the words refused to form them
selves on her lips.
"I saw it in your eyes tonight, be
fore this happened," he wenty on
roughly. "And you see, you cannot
deny it. I care nothing for Dorothy
you know that, tool Years ago,
when I was a boy, I did. and sne let
me down, I told you. Then we met
again and somehow things were al
lowed to drift, and we patched things
tip. She is nothing to me, and if the
truth were spoken, I dare say I am
nothing to her, except someone who
will give her a good time, and pay
her bills. Tonight" he paused and
drew a long breath. "Tonight has al
tered everything, if what the doctor
fears is true, and you know as well as
I do that, unless Dorothy sets me
free, I never can ask for my free
dom" Ninette tried to laugh, but it was
not very successful.
"I don't know what you mean, or
why you say all this to me," she
persisted obstinately. "Why say yon
loved her years ago, and so" She
raised her passionate eyes to his and
suddenly stopped speaking, her heart
overwhelmed with sudden desolation.
She knew that every word Not
hard had said was true; she knew
that no matter how they loved each
other, happiness could not come to
them now, unlets Dorothy gave it
with magnanimous hands. And she
hated Dorothy hated her with the
strong intensity of her nature, in
spite of the fact that tragedy bad
just knocked at the closed door up
stairs. Then all at once her pride broke
down and she ' tumbled forward
against Nothard't breast, the bitt-tr

"Oh, I do love you I do love
you!" - -.
"Ninettel" his arms went around
her, holding her fast. He could not
believe it was true that she wat here
clinging to him, when his love for
her had seemed so hopeless and tar
removed.
He bent his head and kissed her

CHAPTER XLI.
Peter Makes a Choice.
It was Ninette who spoke first,
breaking away from him, her cyet
wild, her voice tremulous.
"It isn't fair I never have any
happiness! She doesn't love you,
and I dol I've never had any happi
ness! lt't been only trouble, all
through my life!"
"My dearest"
"Oh, you take it so calmly!" the
broke out." "You are quite willing
to marry Dorothy, just because they
say she may be scarred. W hat does
that matter? She never cared for
you you've just taid so and I"
She stopped, afraid to trust her
self to tay any more.
Nothard walked away from her
agitatedly. After a moment he broke
out again:
"lt't my duty, at I see it She
has only her beauty you know that
Ninette, and you know what will be
said if I ask her to give me my free
dom. I can't do it, Ninette! I love
you with every beat of my heart,
but this " He stopped as someone
tapped at the door. Mrs. Cranford
entered. She looked from her
nephew to Ninette, and hesitated,
painfully aware of the tragedy in
both their faces;, then she said;
"Peter, Dorothy is asking for
you." .
There wat an elocjuent silence,
then Peter made a quick, irresolute
gesture.
Mrs. Cranford hesitated, but they
both seemed to have forgotten her,
and she went silently away.
Ninette turned round then. Her
face was marble white, and her eyes
blazed. She had lost all sense of
justice and proportion in her newly
realized love. She bad known the
joy of being held in this man's
arms, and of feelings his kisses upon
her "lips, and for the moment her
soul was aflame with jealousy.
"If you go to her now I will never
forgive you or speak to you again as
lo" as I l;"el" she said.
She hardly raised her voice, but
it was shaken to the depths by the
strength of her passion.
"Ninette, for God's sake"
She drew back.
"I mean what I say! Put yourself
in my place and see how you would
feel. Imagine that some man who
cares for me was upstairs, asking
for me ill! How would you like
me to go?" Her breast rose and fell
stormily; her lips shook so that she
could hardly form her words. "If
you go now you will go forever
I never want to see you again! I
don't care if she is ill or what is
the matter with her. You say your
self she doesn't love you. Well, I
dol I suppose I've no pride to say
this now, but it's the truth, and I
won't spare you! You can go to
her, if you like, but if you think I
shall stay down here, and pot mind.
when I know you will kiss her, and
" She cried out as if in pain as
he caught her hand and tried to turn
her to him. ' .
"Oh. let me go let me go!" she
sobbed.
But he was stronger than she and
held her forcibly, making her look
at him as he spoke.
You don t mean this Ainrtte;
you're upset, unstrung! It's my duty
to go to her now, and you know it.
I love you there is no other woman
in the world for me but Dorothy
is ill-" ... . .
Ninette cried out passionately:
"I wish I were dead I"
She trembled so that she would
have fallen but for Nothard's up
holding hands and for a moment
they looked into one another's tragic
faces silently. Then he broke out
again:
"At least kiss me, Ninette if it's
for the last time!"
When he bent toward her she
struggled, and tried to hide her
face, but she was like a child in his
grasp, and he pressed a long, pas
sionate kiss on her lips before he
released her.
He turned to the door, but as he
opened it the called his name wildly.
"Peterl Don't go to her don't
go!
. For a moment she thought he
hesitated; then, with a sudden move
ment, he turned and walked out of
the room, shutting1 the door behind
him.

"That Man"
For fully JO minute I heard the
continuous murmur of their voices.
Lillian's, uniooth, cricp, narrative
the physician's, at first nervous, ex
postulating, filially acquiescent. And
when Lillian returned to the recep
tion room there were traces of a bat
tle bitterly fought, hardly won, in her
eyes.
Dr. Pettit, behind her. was vitibly
fluttered. He turned to me awk
wardly. "Your trip hit done you good, f rs.
Graham." he laid, with his best pro
feional lir. "You are looking ex
ceedingly well. How are Mr. Gra
ham and the child?"
"Both are very well, thank you,"
I returned demurely, hesitated, then
atked abruptly: "And Miss Foster?
Is she ttill in Sag Harbor, and
well?"
I had asked the question simply to
startle him out of his ridiculous self
consciousness, but when he percepti
bly paled at the question I was angry
I had asked it.
"She is not in Sag Harbor. At for
her health, I do not know, for I
have herd nothing from her for
weeks."
His Words and manner indicated
that nothing was more trivial, more
remote from his mind than the wel
fare and the whereabouts of Claire
Foster. But I who knew of his in
fatuation for the breezy western girl
caught the look of suffering in his
eyes, and guessed that there had been
some sudden and tragic ending of his
love story. Buf I had no chance to
say anything if I had wished to do
so, for Lillian was already at the
door, and made an imperative little
signal for me to follow her. ,Wfheu
we were safely out .of hearing she
exploded:
"Of all the colossal, coiled-in-red-tape,
anointed idiots, that man is the
most colossal and the most anointedl"
she exclaimed.
"Won't he do what you wish?" I
asked.
"You can bet the list cent you ever
expect to have that he will," she re
plied emphatically. "But it. took me
10 minutes to convince him that he'd
better. I hope your mother and Eliz

Tell Her the Truth.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a young
man of 22 and have been friendly
with a girl over n year. ' I love her
very much, but due to the lull in
business and the continual decrease
of salary I am in no position to get
married. I was going to surprise
her Now Tear's with an engagement1
ring, but it seem doubtful now. I
do not want to get married until I
am in a position for it. I am a
young 'man who does not want to
make a fool of a girl and break her
heart. When I start something I
want' to finish it. Now, I love her
very much and I haven't the nerve
to tell it to her. In that way, I
think she gets the Idea that I don't
love her. Do you think if she really
likes me she would wait for me?
M. G.
Tell the girl the honest truth
about the situation. Your love
sounds like a big, honest, fine feel
ing, which any real woman would
be proud to have. And you are
young enough to wait. The only
thing that would be utterly unfair
to the girl would be to leave her
in doubt as to your feelings. She
has a right to know and to make her
own decisions.

A Silly Song
By A. CUCKOO BIRD.
Old Mack Teelaiid went to town
to sell a load of steers. He hadn't
been so far from home in almost
20 years. He got the money for his
stock and went to feed his face.
The folks all smiled behind their
hands when Mack came in the place.
He owns a section and a half of
good Nebraska dirt, but he was
dressed in overalls and home-made
gingham shirt. After supper when
he went to pay his bill, by heck,
the feller at the register refused to
cash his check. Mack didn't know
a soul in town and din't have a cent.
He had to wire to Banker Burns
and have some money sent. Mack
Teeland's kid ain't worth a darn but
he's a dude for fair. He puts per
fumery on his shirt and goose grease
on his hair. He went to town some
time ago and stayed a week or two.
He lost the last red cent he had.
as gamblers sometimes do. He had
been eating in the place, 'bout once
or twice a day, where Mack had
tried to cash the check they would
not take for pay. "When Mack's son
found that he was broke he promptly
grabbed a pen and went down to that
eating house and cashed a check
for 10. Old Mack coughed up to
meet the check and Banker Burns
delares, it's funny folks can't see be
