rushed up the stairs.
In the morning; she was very oler

sleeplessness were furrowed In her

He had sprung to his feet. "Edith.
I can never thank you enough for

advice. There's a train east In two
hours and I'm going on it. Fortu
nn'ely my property, or most of it, has
dissolved the way It came."
L ."She moved toward him with extend

He held her band fast In his. "Good

may sound foolish to you after all I

if if I had not met Irene if " He
paused j'nd went hot with embarrass
ment. What would she think of him?
An hour ago he bad been ready to
kill or be killed in grief over his frus
trated love, and already be was proc-
ticallv making love to her. Had "he
brought her to his room for this?
What a hypocrite he was!
"Forgive me. Edith." he said, as
speak to Miss Morrison.'
In a few words she explained Dave's
sudden disappearance, stripping the
Incident of all but vital facts. Bert
Morrison was all sympathy. "It's a
big story, you know," she said, "but
we won't think of it that way. Not
a line, so far as I am concerned.
Edith Duncan Is the girl we need. A
sort of adopted sister to Dave. She
may know more than any of us."
But Edith knew absolutely nothing;
nothing except that her own heart was
thrown Into a turmoil of emotions.
She spent the day and the evening
downtown, rotating about the points
where Dave might likely be found.
And the next morning the culled on
Irene Hardy.
In spite of all eforts at self-control
she treuib'ed us she pressed the bell.
She had never met Irene Hardy; it
was going to be a strange exiorience.
Introducing herself to the woman who
bad been preferred over her and who
bud apparently proved so unworthy of
that preference.
She bad difficult things to say. and
even while she said them she must
Jeii!ouy of her natural womon!iooi.
And she must be very, very careful
that In saying things wh'cli were bard
to say she did not say hard things.
And, tnosj difficult of all. she must try
to pave the wav to a reconciliation be
tween Dave and the woman who stood
between her hud happiness.
Irene rttended the door, cs was hor
custom. Her eyes took In Edith's face
and figure with mild surprise. Edith
was conscious of the process of n
quick Intellect endeavoring to classify
her solicitor, music teacher, busi
ness girl? And In that moment of
pr.uso she saw Irene's eyes and a
strange commotion of feeling surged
through her. So this was the woman
Dave had chosen to love!
No; one does not choose whom one
will love; one loves without choosing.
Edith was conscious of that; she knew
ll.at in her own life. And even ns she
looked lliis first time upon Irene she
became aware of n subtle attraction
gathering about her; she felt some
thing of that power wlcli had held
ouve to a single course inrougn an
these years. And suddenly a great
new truth was born In Edith Duncan.
Suddenly she realized that if the stecL
nt any time prove unfaithful to the
magnet the fault lies not In the steel
but In the magnet. What n change of
view, what a reversion of nil accepted
things came with the realization of
that truth which roots down Into the
bedrock if all nuture! . . .
"Won't yon come In?" Irene was
saying. Her voice was sweet and mu
sical, but there was a note of sadness
In It which set responsive chords
a-tremble nil through Edith's heart.
"I am Edith Duncan," she managed
to say. "I I think I have something
to say thnt may Interest you."
There was n quick leap In Irene's
eyes; the leap of that Intuitive femi
nine sense of danger which 'so seldom
errs In dealing with Its own sex, and
Is yet so unreliable n defense from
the dangers of the other. Mrs. Hardy
was In the living room.
"Won't you come up to my work
shop?" Irene answered, without
change of voice, find they ascended
the stairs together. "I draw a little,"
Irene was saying, talking fast. "Oh,
yes, I have quite commercialized my
art, such as It Is. But I haven't lost
my soul altogether. I daub In color
a lit'le yes, douh, that's the word.
But It keeps one's soul nllve." S1k
trembled, and her voice choked ; she
put out her arm to a chair. When
she turned her face there were tears
on it. . . . "Tell mo Edith," she
said. . . . "You know" . . .
"I know some things," Edith man
aged to say. "I know, now, thnt I do
not know nil. Dave nnd I are old
friends. My father took a liking to
him n-id he used of en to be in our
house. And we got to know each
other very well, and he told me about
you long ago. And last night I found
him at h'.s rooms, almost nnd nnd
swearing to shoot Conwnrd. Ami
then be K id nn that that "
"Yes? Yes? What d.d be tell you?
I nm not. afraid "
Edith turned her eyes to where the
white crests of tlc m I'.ntalns cut like
a crumpled keel through a sea of Infi
nite blue. "He told me be saw Con
wnrd li.-re . . . upstairs . . .
and Conwnrd made a boast. And he
would have shot him, but you rushed
upon Ifm and begged him not to. He
said you would have taken the bullet
yourself rather than U fehould find
("onward."
"oh! oh'." the girl cried, in the pain
of one mortally hurt. "How could he
think that? I didn't care for him
for Conwnrd but for Dave. I knew
there had been u quarrel I didn't
know why and I knew if Dave shot
him it wasn't in self-defense what
ever It was. he couldn't plead that
and they'd hang him, and that was all
I saw, Edith, lhat was nil 1 saw, nird
I would yes. I would rather have
taken the bullet myself than that that
should happen "
"You jxior girl!" fnid Edith. "You
jMior girl!" And her arms found tlie
other's neck. "You have been hurt,
hurt." y nd then, under her breath,
"more than me."
"What has he done?"
"He had already been convinced
nt be uhonM nfi'er his serv'ees tr j
his country, In these times. He said
he couldn't remain here, and he has
already left for England. I nm afraid
I encouraged him to leave at once.
'You see, I didn't understand."
Irene had taken a chair, nnd for
some minutes she sat In silence. "I
don't blame you," t-he said, nt length.
"You gave him good advice. There
remains only one thing for me to do."
"What?" snld Edith -after a mo
ment's hesitation.
"Follow him ! I shall follow him
and make him understand. If he
must go Into battle with all that
that means he must go In knowing
the truth.. You have been very kind.
Miss Duncan. You have gone out f
your way to do me a great service,
and you have shown more kindness
than I have uny right to claim from
a stranger. ... I feel, too, the call
for vengeance," she exclaimed, spring
ing to her feet, "but first I must find
Dave. .1 shall follow him .at once. 1
shall readily locate ';n in some way
through the military service."
She accompanied her visitor to the
door. They shook bands anil looked
for a mommt In each other's eyes.
And then Edith burst away and hur
ried down the street.
