Copyright. 1907. by Itobert W. Chnmbera * t ( Continued from list week ) Implied Intimacy between ibis reel bnircd youus girl nnd Cnptniu Selwyn. "Dear Miss Etroll , " shi said blandly. "I spoke na I did only to uwtirc you thnt I also disregard such mnllclous "Hut If you disregard It , Mr * . Fane , why do you repent it ? " "Merely to emphasize to you my dis belief" in It ; child. " returned Rosamund. "Do you understand'- " "Y-os Thank you Yet 1 should never hnvo honrd of It nt nil if you hud not told me. " Rosuuund"3 color rose one de-si ee. "It In better to hoar such thlii from a friend , ia it not ? " "I didn't know Hint one's friends said such thing5 ; , but perhaps It N hot ter that "way , no you say , only 1 cannot understand the necessity of my knew- ins of my hcnrln-i becnuso It in Cap tain Sclwyn's affair , after all. " "And that. " ' aid Rosamund deliber ately , "in why i told you. " "Told me ? Oh. because he and I aie such close friends' : " "Yes. Such verv close friend * that I" she Unshed "I am Informed that your intcivsts : uv soon to ho identi cal. " The fiirl Mmiy round , self possessed , hut dreadfully pnle. "if you believed that , " she Mild. "It wns vile of you to say what yon Mild , Mrs. Pane. " "But 1 did not believe It. rhlld ! " Btfimmcred Rosamund , several decrees reader than became her and now con vinced that it v-as true. "I u-never dreamed of offending you. Mlsi Er- roll. " "Do you suppose I am too ignorant to lake offense ? " said the girl unsteadi ly. "I told 'you very plainly that I did not understand the matters you chose for discussion , but 1 do understand im pertinence when I am driven to it" "I am very , very sorry , that you be lieve 1 meant It that way , " said Rosa mund. biting her lips. "What dld'you mean ? You are older than I ; you are certainly experienced ; besides , you are married. If you can tjlve it n gentler name than lusolence I would he glad for your Rake , Mrs. A girl splendidly mounted saluted her. Tane. I only know that you have spoiled my ride , spoiled the day for me , hurt me. humiliated mo and awak ened not curiosity , not suspicion , but the horror of It , In me. " Her voice became unsteady again , : tnd her mouth curved , but she held her head high , nnd her eyes were as fearlessly direct as .1 child's. 'And now , " she said calmly , "you know where I stand and what T will not stand. " if Rosamund had anything left to , ny or any breath to Kay it there were no'indications of II. Never in her Hip pant existence had Rho been so abso lutely flattened by any woman. As foi this recent graduate from fudge and olives , she could scarcely realize how utterly and finally she had been si lonccd by her. Incmlulity.exnspc'tation .imnzomont. had succeeded each other while Miss Ilrroll was speaking.ha Tln , shame , helplessness , followed us hitter rcsidn ? , but in the end the \erj Incongruity of the situation c'uno to hf-r aid. "I'm certainly a little beast. " she said impulsively , "but I ically do llk ( yon. Will you forgive ? " .No genuine appeal to the young tori's generosity had ever boon in vain. She forgave almost as easily as she bru ith- si. Even now in the Hush of ju--t re- ientruent it was not hard for her 4o forgive. She hesitated only in order to adjust matters In her own mind Mrs. Fane swung her hone and held out her right hand "Is St peace , Miss En oilI ro really ashamed of myself Won't you forgive me ? " "Yes , " said the joung girl , laymg her gloved hand on Rosamund's very Jlghtly. "I've often thought , " she add ed naively , "that I could lilie you , Mrs. Fane , If you would only give tno n. chance. " "I'll try , you blessed Innocent. You'vo torn me into ra-rs and tatters , nnd you did it adorably. What I said was idle , half wltted , gossiping nonsense. So forget every atom of it as soon as you can , my dear , and let me prove that I'm not an utter Idiot If I can. " "That will be ddlightful , " said Eileen , with a demure smile , and Rosamund laughed , too , with full hearted laughter , for trouble sat very lightly on nor per- fecc shoulders in the noontide of her strength and youth Sin and repent , uuce were rapid matters with Rosa mund ; caus.1- effect and umors.a quick sequence to be quifklj reckoned up , checked off and canceled rnd the next blank page turned over to K1 ruled and tilled with the ueit Impeiu i mcnt. There was in her more of ml- ( ! i ' I J j i Ituthrcn. chief than oV real malice and unfeigned liking and respect for the turning worm. * * * < * "And , my dear , " she said , conclud ing the account of the adventure to Mrs. Ruthven that afternoon at Sher ry's. "I've never been so roundly abused aud so soundly trounced in my life as I wag this blessed morning by that red headed novice. Oh , my ! Oh , In ! 1 could have screamed with laughter nf my own undoing. " "It's what you deserved , " said Allse , intensely annoyed , although Rosamund had not told her nil that she had so kindly nnd gratuitously denied con cerning her relations with Selwyn. "It wns sheer effrontery of you. Rosa mund , to put such notions into the head of a child and Ktlr her up Into taking n llctitious Interest in Philip Selwyn which I know which Is per fectly plain to me , to anybody never existed. " "Of course it existed , " retorted ROMI- inuud , dellghtfd now to worry Allxc. "She didn't know it ; that Is nil. It really wan blmplo i hurity to wake her u ; > It's n good match , too. nnd no ob- vioUhly and naturally inevitable that there's no harm in playing prophetess. There io the youthful brother of our red haired novice now. He 'sees us , nnd he's coming to Intllct himself with another moon faced creature. Shall we bolt ? " Allxc turned and stared nt Gerald , who came up boyishly red nnd Im petuouf. "How d'ye do. Mrs. Ruthven ? Did yon get my note ? How d'ye do , Mrs. K.inoV Awflly jolly to collide this way. Would you mind If" - -Yon. " Interrupted Rosamund"ought to be downtown unless you've ( on- ui.deil to retire and let Wnll street go to smash What are you pretending to do in Sherry's at this hour , you very dreadful Infant ? " "I'\e linen lunching with Mr. Necr- Bard , and \\ould jon mind" "Yes , I would , " begun Rosamund promptly. Uut AJixo Interrupted , " [ ' -ring him over. Gerald" And as the boy thanked her and turned hack : "i'vo a word to administer to Hiai Ivy , Ronmiim ! . so attack the Neor- giid creature \\ith moderation , please. Y.M o\\o mo that at loa-t Iloio he is II jv , mil < ! i n't lie Impossible and Crlgh'tcn him , tfosnrnund. " The presentation of Ncergnrd was accomplished without disaster to any body On his thin nose the dow glis tened , nnd his thick , fat hands wore hot. But Rosamund was too bored to be rude to him , nnd Allxo turned im mediately to Gerald : "Yos , 1 did get your note , but I am not at homo on Tuesday. Can't you come Wait a moment. What are you doing this afternoon ? " "Why , I'm going hack to the oillct ; with Mr. Xecrgard. " Nonsense : Oh , Mr. Neergard , would you mind" very sweetly "If Mr. Er- roll did not go to the oQlco this after noon ? " N'eergard looked at her almost a used nnd uncomfortable smirl : on his round , red face. "Not nt nil , Mrs. Ruthven , if you have anything better for hlm"- "i have nn allopathic dose of It Thank you , Mr. Ncergard. Rosamund , we ought to start , you know. Gerald ! " with quiet slgnlllcnnce. "Goodby. Mr. Ncergnrd. Please do not buy up the rest of Long Island , because wo need a new kitchen garden very badly. ' ' Mrs. Ruthven's motor moved up from its waiting station Rosamund was quite ready to enter when Allso said cordially : "Where can we drop you. dear ? Do let us take you to the exchange if you nre going there. " Xow , Rosamund had meant to go i wherever they were going merely he- cause they evidently wished to be i nlo'ie. ' The nbruptne s oC tlw check botn irritated and amused her. "If I knew any body In the R-ronx I'd make you take nn > there , " she wild vindictively , "but us , I don't you may drop mo at the Orchils' , you uncivil creatures. Gerald. 1 know you want me anyway , because , \ou'\e promised to adoie , honor and obey mo. If you'll come with me now I'll piny double dummy with yon. No ? Well , of all Ingratitude ! " And she smiled dashingly upon Ger ald , then turned tip her pretty tioso at him , but permitted him to attend her to the Orchils' door. When he teturned to Allse and the car was speeding pnrkward ho began airnin eagerly : "Jack asked mo to como up. and , of course , 1 let you know , as i promised I would. Uut it's all right. Mrs. Ruth- von , becnuso .lack said tlu > stakes vill not be high this time. " "You accepted ? " demanded Allxo in quick displeasure. "Why , yes , as the slakes are not to amount to anything. " "Gerald ! " "What ? " he said uneasily. "You promised mo thai yon would not play again in my hoiibc ! " "I I said for more than I could af ford. " "Xo ; you said you would not piny. That Is what you promised , Gerald. " "Well , I ineant for high utakes. I well , you don't -want to drive me out altogether , even from the perfectly harmless pleasure of playing for noml nal stakes. " "Yes , I do. " "W-why ? " n-jkcd the boy In hurt our- prise. "Becnuso it Is dangerous sport , Ger ald. " "What ! To piny for few cents a point ! " "Yes , to play tor anything. And as far as that goes there will be no mich play as you imagine. " "Yes , there will I beg your pardon but Jack Ruthven said so. " "Gerald , listen to me. A bo a man like yourself ! .3 no business playing with people whi o losses never Inter fere with tlvir appetites next day. A business man has nu right to play uch n game anyway I wonder what Mr. Xcergard would say If ho knew you"- "Noprgnnl ! Why. he does know. " "You confessed to him ? " "Y.s : I Ind to.

Do you think i wns educated for this for the wife ot a chevalier of indus try ? " "M-Miu lluthven ! " ho gasped. But she was absolutely reckless now , nnd beneath it all perhaps Iny a certainty of theboy's honor. She knew he wna to bo trusted was the safest recepta cle for wrath ho long repressed. She let pitidonco go with a parting and vindictive slap and opened her heart to the astounded boy. The tempest lasted a few seconds. Then she ended as abruptly as she began. To him she hnd always been whnc a pretty young matron usually IB to n well bred but harebrained jouth Junr untetheral. Their acquaintance luid been for him a combination of charm ing experiences diluted with gratitude for her Interret and a harmless soupcon - con of sentimentality. In her partic ular ease , however , there wna llttlu something more a hint of the for bidden a troubled enjoyment , lecauso he knew , of course , that Mrs. Kuthven was on no footing at all with the Gcrards. "Dear Mrs. Ituthveu , " ho blurted out with clumsy sympathy , "you mustn't think such things , b-bccaubo they're all rot , you sec , and if any fel low ever said those things to mo I'd Jolly soon" "Do you mean to say you've never honrd us criticised ? " "I well everybody is criticised , of. course" "Hut not as wo are. Do you lead the papers ? Well , then , do you under stand how a woman must feel to have her husband continually made the butt of foolish , absurd , untrue stories , as though ho were a performing poodle ? I I'm sick of that , too , for another thing. Week after week , mouth by month , unpleasant things liue : been ae- cumulating , and they're getting too heavy , Gerald , too crushing for my uhouldcrs. Men call mo restless. What wonder ! Women link my name with any man who is kind to me ! Is there no excuse then for what they call my lestleasncss ? What woman would not be restless whoso private affairs are the gossip of everybody ? Was it not enough that I endured terrific publicity when when trouble overtook me two years ago ? I suppose I'm u fool to talk like this , but n girl must do it uomo ( line or burst. And to whom am I to go ? There was only one person , nnd I can't talk to that one. Uc that person - son knows too much ubout tno any way , which la not good for a woman. Gerald ; not good for n good woman I mean tt pretty good woman , the kind pooplo'o sistera am still talk to , you know. " "I want you to believe ine your friend , " said Gerald in the low , reso lute voice of unlntentfom 5 melodrama. "Why , thank you. Are you ho tsure you want that , Gerald ? " 'Tes , as long as I live ! " ho declared , generous emotion iu the ascendant. A pretty woman upset him very easily , even under normal circumstances. But beauty in distress knocked him fiat , aa ! It does every wholesome boy who Is worth his salt And he sold so In hia own naive fash ion , and the more eloquent he grew the \ more excited he grew and the deeper and blacker appeared her wrongs to i him She was very light hearted that even Ing when she dropped him at the Stuy- vesant club and whizzed away to her own house , for be bad promised not to piny again cni her pruni es aua EIO lind promised to be nice to him and take him about when oho was shy of nn escort. escort.Continued ( next week ) i I Your Attention Please. !
