He dropped on his knee and pressed it to his lips. Almost before he had risen he found himself alone. It was a dreary little party that as- sembled in the small Penalty salon that evening before dinner.

It was the middle of Septetn. ber, and he was thinking idly that the Increased stir In the Champs Elysees showed already that the dispersed forces Of Paris were beginning to eon- . con tra te again. Paul Trafford woe . wondering what !dna or seet,lon was preparing for him. It was Just n year ago, her in this very Travelers' Mob, • that Wilt- 4b1re had broached the subject of his love for Paula. Trafford bad entered on the winter which be had thought to mak.° the happiest or Mg vieteriouri ,nfreer. A.nd yet In those very Menthe he Wei lost his wife and wrought some indefinable change between Ills (laugh. ier and lihnSelf. Yea, there was a change. 'There eetlid no longer be tiny doubt of that. Bat watt It between them or in tlieni? Trafford was not used to cloae aunty- -As of eharaeter and admitted he Ult1 not know. She puzzled him. She seem- ed happy. She was often lively In her •Iulvt way. She was tenderer and ,Iweeter with him than she had ever been. She had borne the rupture with Winship so easily that he had been astonished. Ile could only think that the scene in June, with Its brutal at Mel; upon himself. • laer father, had killed what she bed taken to be her love for the Inan. Ail that had passed or satisfectortly. And yet there was this subtle differenee in her, this some- thing. which Was just within range of his perception. though it Wag beyond his power to explain. In spite ef lier nearness she seemed mysteriously Apart from him. It VMS as 4 there was In the atmosphere 'about her some -spiritual element that put blrn ill at mist% He wondered It he were not growing to be afraid of her, as though the were no longer the daughter of his Omni, hut some ethereal visitant from )ther spheres, "If her eister. Jennie were to come lack to we from the Lord's own keep - mg," he sometimes said to himself, "1 lon't suppose I should have a strange? 'eeling of unearthliness." . There seemed to Trafford but one steam of bridging over the gulf that otifl opened between the girl and cora- mon life -that she should marry and have children. It was Impossible, then, for his mind not to go bach to Wilt- shire. There was the man for her: It svas a. million pities that she bad not felt so herself. He Would have wetch- ed over her and worshiped her. She spoke of him often and always in a strain of tenderness. Then, too. she Lind never looked so favorably on 041' other man,' with the exception of this young Winship, for' whom, after all. apparently she had not eared. • "Lord, if it could only be brought about!" he said to himself now. "I be- iiie7eaee. ls!!ould be ready then to depart In• •' He was turning away from the Win- dow to think of 'his lunch when be was suddenly arrested by an incident which • seemed to hint like an answer , to prayer. Wiltshire himself was en- tering the club. There Was' nothing • remarkable in. the fact' beyond what was, passing in Trafford's mind Wilt- shire Was a member of the Travelers'. and it was natural that he shoeld be, In Paris at just that time ef year. But Trafford could not see it so. Long ago Lie would have called it one of his lucky chances. Now he could only feel that Wiltshire had been "sent." . The two men Eshookbands with a .sincere effusion whichmeant more than pleasure in each other's coMpa- ny. Each was an actor in the other's drama, and the interrupted playcould. begin 'again. • "This Is luck," Wiltshire exclaimed. "1 thought you were in America." "I meant to go, but I didn't I found that George could leek after what Was to be. done just as well as t. He's, • there' with Laurit anil.their youngster. Paula and I 'are at Versailles. You lutist come out and see us." ' "I should like to, In Ie meantime can't we have lunch together?.. Then -we ---- • • - - • - "AM right, but not here. There'd be too many fellows interrupting us." In Trafford's tone there was a -hint ofconfidence's to be exchanged to which the duke was not Insensible. • "Let's go to Henry's," he suggested. •"That's'•where they .feed you best .just It was in the minute. 9r,going out to take a cab that each :found, leisure tg• note the changes that seven Months had produced in his companion. "By George. he's improved!" Tref- ford said to biniself. • "I ,believe Paula would see it. He'S better looking, and he's smarter, and he's gpt. an -expres- sion hi his face that was never there :before.". . • .. • ' wPader what's aged him so?" iltshire was asking silently.. "He's grown old in half a year. He looks like a , man .who's had some .great shock. • I suppose It must have been Mrs. Trafford'S death." The scrapS or conversation after they had ordered lunch Were as the tuning of the fiddles to the playing of the piece. Wiltshire talked of his trip to the Cape and gave his views on South Afriea. He shifted to the Dolo- mites. where he had been in Augast, and passed on to tell of a. few days' shooting he had just had in Hungary. • "Novi I'm on my way hbme. to slaughter birds at Edenbridge.. I sup- pose Alice atid I must have some 'peo- ple there." - "1 expect you're very keen. on it," • Trafford hazarded. • "Not a bit If there. wafelinfth g better to do I shouldn't go. Let give you one of these eggs a l'ecos- seise. You'll find 'em good: The fact Is. Trafford, .1 can't stay anywhere.• . l'in' on the jump.

"What could, there be?" "Only what might not be unreasona- ble -between a girl Re Miss Trafford and • a bandsoIne, idealistic young chap." "Ob, come now! The fellow's a scoundrel. • 1 know all his ins and outs and of his people berore him" "I'm surprIsed.to hear you say that. I've always ;thought rather highly of ifitn. Alice has just got hirn a some- what important commission, He's been over .at Sandringham painting Queen Alexandra. She'd heard about. bis portrait of MISS Trafford and got Aliee to. seed her a photograph of it She seems to have been quite struek with it and sent Miss Trafford a mes- sage to that effect. She thought the likeness extraordinary, apart from the other merits of the work." • "Yes, I believe Lady Alice did write Paula something of the sort." "We were rather pleased' over the business, so that I'm sorry to bear your opinion of the young man." ' "Oh, my opinion is of no importance! The only thing that counts is that. as far its I can see, Paula thinks of him as I do, I shouldn't pay any attention to the matter in 'one way or another it It were not for the parpose of assur- ing you" - "Thanks!" • The word came out Ip that dry, la- conic tone which hints that the rest of the subject can be best pursued in silence. It was dropped then and there with a significant abstention from fur- , ther speech. It wet only when they were shaking bands at the door to go their different Ways that Trafford al- luded to it again. 9 say.
