Michael learned tlie whole
story iri broken incoherence.
Patricia, it appeared had not
been so happy as she had said.
‘ She seemed to bo worrying
about something all the time/'
Mrs. Smith said tearfully.
“She was so quiet-and she
was always so anxious for the
postman and so disappointed
when there were no letters.
I ’hi sure she spent hours at
the window watching for him
to come up the road. I asked
her if there was anything
worrying her and she always
said no, but I am sure there
was, Mr. liolf- . .
Michael stood clutching Pa
tricia’s little note in Ids hand
and wondering what on earth
he could do. Useless to look for
her at Mrs. Flnnnagan’s again,
he knew. She would keep far
•nough away from any spot,
that had known her before. He
broke out angrily:
“Why weren’t you more
careful. I told you what would
happen if she ever got to know.
She never liked me. It was the
most • disastrous thing. ...”
Then he saw the distress in
her face and hurried to apolo
gise:
“I am sure you did your
best. Never mind! It’s bad
luck! But it can’t be helped.
But bow did she really get to
know?”
She went to my desk for
some envepoles and your
cheque was lying ‘there. I was
out, so she went to her sister
for an explanation. She de
manded to know how we knew
you and why you were sending
us money—”
Mishael laughed rusfully.
“And then, of course, si c
was furious.”
“She didn’t say a great deal.
She took it >erv quietly; even
when I cama in and she spoke
to me about it, die did not say
much, and I thought perhaps
she was not. si angry, after all.
I should have written to you,
Mr. Rolf, and :her—this even
ing we found this in her room.”
“When do you suppose she
wentt
“It must have been this
afternoon —before ten time-”
This afternoon 1 And now it
was eleven o’clock.
Too late to do anything to
night.
Mrs. Smith followed him to
the door.
“I know you will never for
give us,” she said sadly. “It
was not my fault, and, anyway,
I think it is cruel of Patricia to
have left me like this.” Her
voice broke< into tears.
Michael said what lie could
to comfort her, but he was
worried and occupied with his
own thoughts.
He w'ent half way down the
road, and then came back again
to ask if Chesney had called
to see Patricia.
Mrs. Smith said yes; he had
been each day, and that once
he had taken Patricia out to
dinner.
Michael scowled. Had Pa
tricia gone to Chesney? The
thought gave him an uncon
trollable pang of jealousy.
He rang up Chesney’s rooms,
but he was out, and he had to
get through the night ns best
he could.
At nine o’clock he was round
at Mr. Philips. The lawyer
listened to him with the ghost,
of a smile in his eyes.
“I thought we had got her
safely this time,” he said. He
knew all about Michael's ela
borate plans and the arrange
ment made with Mrs. Smith.
“ I doubt whether you’ve
ever got a woman safely unless
you marry her,” Michael said
bluntly. “And, even then, it’s
no go sometimes ”
Their eyes met and he
flushed a little.
“And what do you want me
r
i«,
io do?” Mr. Philips asked
kindly.
“Hood heavens, man!—find
her,” said Miehael irritably.
‘‘I don't hope to have any luck
this time as I did last. But, \
when 1 do find her, I’ll take
good rare she doesn’t play me
this trii-k a third time,” he
added darkly.
“I sincerely hope not,” said
Mr- Philips.
In his own mind he thought
Miehael would have been far
better advised if he had mar
ried Patricia in the beginning,
and so put an end to all this
nonsense.
Miehael went back again to
Chesney, and Chesney declared
that lie knew nothing about Pa
tricks.
‘‘You look as if you’re speak
ing the truth, I admit,” Miehael
said nastily. “And if you are,
perhaps you’ll lend a help to
find her; though how on earth
we’re to start about it—”
‘‘How did you start before?
Chesney demanded.
‘‘It was luck before,”
Michael admitted. ‘‘We can’t
expect it to be luck ngain.”
Bui they called at Mrs. Flan
, nagan's, and as Michael ex
pected, she knew nothing of
I HiriCIH,
“If you hpar anything, this
is my address,” Michael said.
“And you shall he well paid
if you can help us to find her.”
Mrs. Flannagnn declared
she’d do anything she could for
the love of the pretty lamb,
that she would, and expressed
her intention of then and there
starting out in her best bonnet,
to see what could he done about
it.
But for days there was no
sign of Patricia. Michael began
to look thin and worried. He
could not sleep at night, and he
wandered about London all day.
He wore Chesney out and
still showed no sign of giving
in himself.
“She may he out of the
country,” Chesney said. “How
do you know that she isn’t?”
“Because I know she isn’t,
and that’s all about it,”
Michael answered obstinately.
He went down to Clayton
Wold and made inquiries there.
Nobody had seen Patricia, and
he realized with a sort of
chagrin that very few people
were in the least interested in
her.
She was no longer either rich
or amongst them, and so had
censed to matter.
In desperation lie went to
the Shackles and asked Effie
to help him.
“You must know a list of her
friends, or, at least, of some
people where she might have
gone,” he insisted.
Effie looked at his haggard
face and a little pang shot
through her heart.
The loss of Patricia's money
did not matter to this man
evidently, she realized, as she
shook her head and answered
that she knew very little of Pa
tricia or how slit* used to spend
her time in the old days.
“I thought you were her
friend,” Michael was stung to
retort, and Effie answered that
dear Patricia had hardly been
the sort of girl of whom one
could ever really make a friend.
“She was always so proud—
she always kept so much to
herself,” she said. “And she
renllv was rather selfish, voti
know, Mr. Rolf.”
Michael flushed angrily, and
Effie’s eyes narrowed as she
looked at him.
“You seem very interested,”
she submitted sweetly, “and
yet I never knew that you and
Patricia were great friends.”
Michael shot her a furious
glance.
“When I find Patricia, T
shall hope to have the honor
of asking you to our wedding,”
he said.
CHAPTER X
A week slipped away.
“She must be ill,” Michael
told Patricia’s mother. He had
gone over to Kensington to
ask if there was any news, and
as usual had been disappointed.
“If she were not ill she
would write or come back, I am
sure,” lie insisted restlessly.
Patricia's mother did not
think so. She knew Patricia
better than Michael did, and in
her own mind she believed he
had more to do with her dis
appearance than anyone else.
One day she spoke to him
about it.
“I have tried to say this to
you for so long, Mr. Rolf,” she
said nervously, “but I have
thought—1 mean—oh, can’t
you throw any explanation on
Patricia having gone away?”
Michael stared at her.
“I know it was because she
found out about my paying for
her,” he said grimly. “I know
of no other reason. . . What do
you mean?” he asked conscious
of a curious expression in her
eyes.
Mrs. Smith flushed agitated
ly
“I only thought—only won
dered,” she stammered. “Pa
tricia seemed to be so sure that
you would come here to see
her. She told me so many times
that she was sure you would
come, and she seemed so dis
appointed when each day went
by and you did not- . . Oh, I
hope you are not angry or
offended with me!”
It was impossible to mistake
her moaning, and Michael sn
swered her anneal unhositat*
ingl.v:—
“I asked Patrieia to marry
roe—the day before she came
here to you—and she refused.”
Mrs. Smith looked frankly
disappointed and astonished.
“Then, of course, T must be
mistaken,” she said quietly. ‘‘I
bepr your pardon for having
spoken of it, Mr. Rolf.”
Michael went back to his
rooms. He hated them, and yet
he was afraid to stay away for
to Ion" in ease some news of
Patricia should come.
llad she really wanted him
1o "o and see her he wondered.
It did not seem at all likely.
She had only to ask him to go
if she wished him to do so.
She had been gone ten days
now—a lifetime it seemed! He
leaned his elbow on the mantel
shelf and stared down into the
fire with unhappy eyes.
Would he ever see her again?
Sometimes he believed that he
never would. One heard of such
complete disappearances —
people going out for an ordi
nary walk in the London
streets and never being seen or
heard of again.
And he wanted Patricia. As
he stood there in the silent
room he knew how much he
wanted her. With all her faults
and follies, she was the only
woman for him in the world.
Life at Clayton Wold would
mean nothing to him if she
were not there to share it. He
wondered why he had only just
discovered that he loved her of
if he had always known it and
be n shy of admitting it.
He looked baek to their first
meeting at the Chesney's river
party- He had pretended that
lie disliked and despised her
then, and all the time he must
have eared for her
If he had been indifferent
Lor arrogance and pride could
not have affected him at all. It
mush have been because he
recognized the depths of which
she was capable that lie had
been jealous for her to show
him of her best.
Always loved her—of course
lie had! There had been no time
in their acquaintance when a
line could have been drawn
that marked the border be
tween friendship and love. The
tiling had never commenced be
cause it had always boon there.
11c took his hat and wan
dered outdoors again. lie bated
the bouse; lie felt as if he
could not breathe unless he
were in the fresh air.
Tt was a col. starry night
that seemed to speak only of
Patricia as he walked along,
head a little downbent.
What was she doing? Where
vva3 she? It tortured him that
lie did not—and perhaps might
never—know. In an aching
imagination he had pictured
her so often—alone and un*
happy—with the tears running
down her cheeks as he had
tried not to see them that first
night when he left tier at Mrs
Flannagan's.
She had been kind to him
that night. He liked to think
of the way she had tried to
thank him for what he had
done for her and of the little
spontaneous way in which his
Christian name had escaped
her.
lie called on Chesney, but
Chesney was taciturn and
would not come out. He blamed
Michael for everything thal
had happened to Patricia.
“If we never see her again
you’ve only got yourself tc
thank,” he said savagely. “No
body but a ■clumsy fool would
have attempted to pay a woman
like Mrs. Smith to have Pa
trieia in the house.”
Michael turned round on him
angrily:
“I suppose you’d be sur
prised to hear that Mrs. Smith
is Patricia’s mother, wouldn’t
you?” he said sharply. “Yes,
I thought so. Well, put that in
your pipe and smoke it, my
friend ” He went out again,
banging the door behind him.
Out on the street again, to
tramp on once more. He had
given up staring at every wo
man whom,he passed now. He
had given up his belief that Pa
tricia was in London, but be
cause he did not know where
else to look for her he stayed
there doggedly, hoping and
praying that chance would be
kind to him again, as it had
been before. He walked on,
hands deep thrust into his
pockets, head downbent.
What was the use of going
back to his rooms? He hated
their silence and loneliness.
One might as well stay out'
doors and pass the lonir hours
away.
He turned to cross the road
He would go and look Philips
up. Philips was a decent little
chap. Philips—
“Look ut, there,” yelled a
voice, and Michael woke from
his dejected reverie to the fact
that a motor-lorry was bearing
down upon him.
He leapt to one side and
safely out of its way, but as he
tried to gain the pathway he
slipped on the curb and fell
heavily, twisting his foot badly.
A policeman who had seen
what had happened came to
his assistance and helped him
to rise.
“Any damage, sirt he asked
cheerfully. “Narrow squeak
that was.”
Michael was rather pale.
“I’ve sprained my ankle, 1
think,” He tried to put his foot
to the ground, but gave a
stifled*groan, clutching at the
constable’s arm helplessly.
Another man was coming
along the path. He looked at
Michael sharply, then came for
ward.
“My dear hoy, what has
happened?” he asked anxious
ly. Tt was Mr- Philips himself.
Michael explained as best he
could—he was in considerable
pain.
“I was on ray way to see
you. I don’t know how it hap
pened. I shall have to have a
taxi. Can you see me home?”
“Why, of course It’s most
unfortunate — most unfortun
ate.”
“Might have been worse,
sir,” the constable said stoical
ly “Gent was nearly run over.”
They took Michael back to
his rooms and found that he
had sprained his foot and ankle
badly.
“You’ll have Jo have a doc
tor,” Mr. Philips insisted
“Nonsense! I say you must!”

Q. Please give the religious affili
ations ot President and Mrs. Hoover,
and explain why they were married
by a Catholic priest. D. C. S.
A. In 1899 Mr. Hoover, a young j
engineer, had had a job in Austra
lia, and was returning to San Fran
cisco, He was to leave immediately
for China to take up another posi
tion, so cabled his fiancee, Lou
Henry, that he wished to be mar
ried without delay. The 'cable
message miscarried, and upon his
arrival quick action was necessary.
There being no other clergyman in
the town of Monterey, Cai„ where
the marriage was to take place,
they persuaded a Catholic mission
ary priest. Rev. Raymon Marin
Mestries, who was also a civil of
ficial, to perform the ceremony, aft
er h? had obtained a special dis
pensation from his bishop, as neith
cr Mr. Hoover nor his bride was a
Catholic. Mr. Hoover is a Friend or
Quaker. Mrs. Hoover is an Episco
palian, but attends the Friends’
Meeting House with Mr. Hoover.
Q Where did the Mayas come
from? N. A L
A. This is one of the world’s an
cient mysteries. Research is now
going on in the Vatican library in
Ihe hope of tracing manuscripts of
nriests who visited America at the
‘Ime of the Spanish conquest. It is
hoped that these may prove a key to
.he Mayan hieroglyphics which
have been found. At the time of
the conquest the Mayas had a vast
literature preserved on scrolls or pa
pyrus. These were gathered and
burned by the Spanish invaders. De
spite the fact that the Mayas had
evolved a complex civilization and
had developed astronomy and math
ematics to a stage not surpassed bj
the ancient Egyptians, the source of
this civilization is unknown.
