NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
But in the morning she laughed at
her fears, for there was a letter from
Dennis, in which for the first time he
said that he missed her—and only
God knew what an effort it had cost
him to write those words—and ask-
ing how much longer she meant to
be a deserter.
"Dreams don't mean anything,"
Pauline told herself happily. "It
must have been because we had cu-
cumber with salmon for dinner."
She spent a happy day. The doc-
tor said her mother was better, and
there was a wire from her father to
say lie was returning, and Pauline
wrote a long letter to Dennis. "It
will be too wonderful, won't it?" she
wrote with trembling eagerness, "I
think I love you better than ever 1
did—if it's at all possible, darling, I
often wonder how I managed ever to
be happy before you married me, and
if anything happened that we were
separated, Dennis, I should die,"
O'Hara's face twitched as he read
her loving words, and for
a moment
he looked away from what he was
reading, wondering why it was he

but she had never again allowed him
to go to her flat, and that morning,
looking at himself in the glass while
he shaved, it seemed to ' Dennis that
he bad aged years in these few days.
Pauline's letter had •come by the
evening post, and Dennis was dress-
ed to go out—he was taking dinner
with Barbara and Stornaway.
Barbara had refused to come alone:
"Bring Dr. Stornaway," she had said.
"Are you ever coming alone with.
me again?" Dennis had asked, but
she had not replied.
He stood staring down into the
fire, smoking cigarette after cigarette
end trying to see beyond the immed-
iate present. Was there to be any
beyond? Barbara would not tell' hint,
and he himself could not find the an-
swer.
When Pauline came back perhaps
they would find it, or she would find.
it for thein. The telephone rang.
Was it Barbara, to say she could not
dine with him? ` His heart almost
seemed to stop beating as he waited,
and then he caught his breath in a
great sigh of relief as he knew it
was not she. It was Stornaway.
quickly to her and took her hands.
"What is it, my dear?"
She smiled. "Did Mellish tell you?
Bless her heart! She knows there i$
nobody else I should ever tell' my
troubles to, Dennis." Shebent and
dropped a kisson his coat sleeve.
"Mix some cocktails, please, and I'll
tell you."
She sat down by the .fire and
watched him; :'then' suddenly she
spoke.
"I had an unexpected visitor to-
day, Dennis." • '
"Ohl" He was not greatly inter-
ested. "Who was it?"
"My husband."
The . fragile stem of the glass he
was holding snapped suddenly be-
tween Dennis 'O'Hara's fingers. He.
had forgotten that Barbara had 'a
husband living.
"I thought you never saw him," he
said with an effort.
"I haven't for years. ,He carne
this afternoon. • I had no idea he was
in New York."
,There was a little silence. "What.
did he want?" Dennis asked sharply:'
She lifted her beautiful eyes.

O'Hara's face twitched as he read her loving words.... He could
not rid himself of the feeling that this letter was really written to him.
"That you, O'Hara? I say, I'm
awfully sorry, but I can't come along
to -night, after all. I've been sentkit
to go home. Old Thompson is ill

"No, not at all—I've notbooked

he rang off and went to get his ov-
ercoat.

knock on Barbara's door was answer-
ed, and then it was Mrs. Mellish who
admitted him. ,
She said, "Good -evening, sir," in
her quiet voice and led' the way into
the sitting room.
"Mrs. Stark will not keep you
long, sir." She hesitated, looking at
him with those quiet eYes that saw
so much and betrayed so little.
"Mrs. Stark has been a little up-
set," she added.
"Upset?"
"I expect Mrs. Stark will explain
to you, 'sir."
She went away, leaving Dennis to
wait impatiently;
"He asked inc to go back to him."
Dennis stood very still for a mo-
ment; then he turned mechanically
again to his jpb.
"You like French Vermouth?" he
said.
"Please." Then she laughed, a
wild little laugh that'sounded infin-
itely sad.'"Make it strong, Dennis,
so strong that I shan't care what hap-
pens. or what becomes of me." th
She flung out her hands with a ag
pathetic gesture of emptiness, but .
Dennis took no notice. He finished yo

her. As she took it he asked, "And ed.

his face, '"He says he has never car-
ed for any woman but rue, Dennis.'
"And you told him you would
think about it -.- about going back
to him?"
"Yes,"
"Did be give you a time limit?"
Dentis was white to the lips.
She shodk her head. "No=I pro-
mised to write to him."
She stood up suddenly beside him,
tall and beautiful and so utterly de-
sirable, that for a moment Dennis
O'Hara closed his eyes. Then she
said, "What's the use of hoping for
anything—for us, 1 mean? You know
it's no use; you know you can't do-
what you think you can,"
"You mean—tell Pauline?"
"Yes."
He clenched his hands into fists,
"Barbara—there' must be some oth-
er way."
"Yes." She smiled tremulously.
"You might come here secretly—as
my lover — and we should be happy
for the little time we could be to-
gether and unhappy for the great
while we had to be apart. And ;ome
day it would be found out, and then
"I should only mind for your sake."
She shook her head sadly.
"It wouldn't • hurt me—it wouldn't
be anything worse than the things
people say about nee already. But
you, Dennis — it would break ,your
heart,"
"Am I such a weakling?"
"No, if you were it would not mat-
ter."
He paced up and down the room
restlessly.
"If I were an honest man; I should
go tb Pauline and tell her the truth.
It would not hurt her as much, as it
will if some day she finds out that
I love you and that I think of yo
every ,moment and want you--"
"It's because you are an honest
man that you can't tell her," Bar-
bara said, and then, s he did not an
swer, she took up her cloak and hel
it to .him.

"Let us go, Dennis—Dr. Stoma
way will be waiting,"
He took the cloak from her, but
as he laid it over her shoulders, he
suddenly enfolded her with his arms,
pressing her head back against his
breast. "Barbara—kiss me--"
He lips moved to say no, but Den-
(nis silenced the word with his own,
and so for a long time they stood
while Barbara gave herself up wholly
to the intoxication of the moment.
"Just this once—for the last time,"
she 'told herself. "Just this once-
for the very last time."
And when at last he released her
she was' white and shaken and could
not meet his eyes, though he tried
to laugh.
"Nobody has ever kissed iire like
that, Dennis," she said faintly.
"Arid was it — happiness?" he.
asked.
"It was—heaven," she whispered.
He told her about Stornaway as

drove away together, her cheek
ain his shoulder, her hand in his.
`I didn't tell yo ubefore. I thought
u would refuse to come."
`I ought to refuse now," she sigh -
She raised her head and looked
him. "Dennis, this isn't really me
all. I used to be so unhappy—
now, I feel young and warm and
hout a care in the world." But
nnis O'Hara's eyes were sad as
.looked away from her, and the
rds of Pauline's letter came back
him like a sad reproach—"If any -
g happened that we were separ
, I should die."

They Spent a happy evening;
"We'll forget everything but that we
are together," Barbara said, So they
dined and danced and.talked of
things that were farthest from their
hearts. It was as they were leaving
that they came face to face'with Jer-
ry Barnet: •
He had obviously been. drinking,
"I told him .I would think about
it." There was a long silence. "You
'know he divorced . me," she said. 'pre-
sently.
Dennis did not answer.
Her face whitened, and she said
almost in a whisper: "It wasn't true,.
Dennis, not —• not what you think.
But I' was as tired` of him as he' was
of me, so° I let him think ---what he
liked, I swear it's the truth."
"There is no need; I always believe
you."
"Foolish Dennis!" But there were
tears in her eyes—so often now there
seemed to be tears in her eyes.
"Well -- go on," Dennis said after
a moment.

ARTIFICIAL SUNLIGHT
Nowadays, many things which are
found'in nature are also produced ar-
tificially. The term "artificial" no
longer suggests an inferior substitute,
for indeed something that is artificial
may have certain advantages, such as
being more accessible and more uni-
form in quality than the natural pro-
duct.
From the earliest ages, man has
appreciated the warmth and growth -
giving Bower of the sun. Man, along
with. plants and animals, has turned
his face to the sun. Sun -baths are
not a modern invention; they were
used many centuries ago. The Greeks
included solaria in their homes, and
built ;places by the sea where they
exposed their naked bodies to the
sun.
Sunlight isnot, as we know, avail-
able on cloudy and rainy, days. More-
over, .sunlight 'varies in itsduration
and intensity with the time of day
and the season of the year. In order
that sunlight may be constantly av-
ailable, irrespective of clouds, time
or season, special lamps have been
devised to produce artificial sunlight
and other forms of light.
Sunlight, whether natural or arti-
ficial, has certain effects ,upon the
body. We know, from personal.ex-
perience ,that sunlight burns and •tans
the skin. We also know that to ex-
pose our bodies to the sun and air,
provided the exposure is properly.
regulated, gives us a sense of health
and energy,
Studies mad of the effects of light.
on the human body have shown that
it is of great value in the prevention
of rickets, that it is most useful in
the treatment of a limited number of
diseases, that it is of questionable
value in' others, and that it is actual -
ly harmfal in certain conditions.
Because light treatments have some
value is no justification for the exag-
gerated claims which have"been made
nor' for the widespread• use of lampss
regarding the extent of the power of
which, the user is ignorant.
There is no simple rule for apply-
ing light in the treatment of disease.
The area to be exposed, the source
of light to be used, and, the ..dosage,
together with the condition of the in-
dividual.;and his reaction to exposure,.
all are all points which must be con-
sidered if the dangers arising out of
the abuse of light' are to be avoided.
A real danger lies,in self -treatment
with light. I1 treatment is required,
the use of light needs to be as care-
fully prescribed and supervised as -
does any other form- of treatment.
Light is not a cure-all.' •In some con-
ditions, when properly used, it- is a.
valuable aid in treatment; in others,:
as we have said,'it may be definitely
harmful.
