said, "there should ,be a third butI

!"°It is there zome'vwhere. On the
;able under the lamp, I think," said
Penelope vaguely, she was 'trying her
mkfe with a (broom straw. It was, a
ovely cake, puffy and (brown. Giles
.argot first editions for the moment
while 'Penelope drew out the straw,
iecideed the cake needed a few more
minutes, opened the oven door, and
rid ,the ,brown (beauty in its cavern -

(Ghees' eyes took in with apprecia-

"Do YOU like it?"
1"Yes. - I .sometimes think there was
a real aesthetic value in .the fine old
kitchens of our ancestors. You could
put- a whole efficiency apartment into
one of them:, and there was much
more of real 'loveliness thah in the
cheap imitative effects , of much of
our orale.", -
He lingered to, .talk about, it, and
went bark reluctantly to his, books.
Penoelape called after :him that when
the cake was done he was to have a
slice of it and, a cupof tea. "Which
helps a lot," he }bald her.
He found lying on the table the
thin purple volume which he so,ugl:'.
He found too, Ia handkerdhief. tucked
between the pages to hold the
place.. . . '
The han,dkemchief was a wisp 'of a
thing in ,pale yellow . ' . . as he
lifted it his nostrils were .assailed by
a faint perfume . . white ros-

'His heart seemed to stop,beating
Joan!
'Hie looked ,about the room: as if ,to
find some further trace of her. He
said, aloud to t'he empty air: "Of
course it -can't 'be, it can't."
With the handkerchief in his hand,
he sought the 'kitchen. "Mrs. Sears,"
'he said, and held up the wisp of
chiffon, "do you ,mind telling me
whose this is?"
Penelope turned, from the oven.
"That? ,0 6, it's. Joan's.' Joan Dud-

"In the village. Why?"
"Because . . well, I'm Giles

"Well, of all things," Penelope was
on tiptoe with curiosity. She re,mem-
bered that Joan bad spoken of Giles.
"What made you think it was her
handkertchieff ?"
He laughed. "I recognized the per-
fume.''
"'Well, sb,ell be gtwl to see, you-"
"'I'm not sure,',' .,
'"Why not?"
"She went away without leaving
any, word, iMrs. ISears. It seems
strange that just ,by chance I should

"When you are as old as I you'll

"Perhaps." Gilles shelveld theology

"Joan? Oh, in time far tea."
"And: ,I'm to 'leave, it with you?"

into a chair in front of the fire and

As she talked he was aware of a

ness which -had :beenone of her chief
,harms: ,She walked into keen in-
be'rest, however, when the spoke of
Finding the handkerchief in the book.
"How did, you know it was mine?"
;he demanded,
He reached into his packet and
brought out a wisp of rase colour.
`You see?" he said, "you dropped it
the night ,of ,the storm. And I knew -
the fragrance."
"Oh," she said4 and, a flush came in-
to her cheek. He wondered what the
Rush meant. Was she offended?
'There- yeas a Imomrent's sileenee out

me of yourself? You see• I've heard

"`There isn't much to tell, except
that 'I am not going to marry -Drew,

misunderstand her attitude, think
her self-tconscious. •
"'I 'thought. it 'best :not to let any-
one know," was her explanation. And
just then Penelope came in ,with the
tea. After that the conversation was
general. At lash Joan spoke of her
dancing class. '"You should see the
children."
"'You should 'see Joan," Penelope
said, "she's like a fairy."
Giles shook his head. "I told her
when I first 'net her she was a dry-

ing'pageant, Giles said. "I wish you

said, "why not?"
It was dark when 'Giles, rose to go.

"I will walk with you through e
wood," Joan offered unexpectedly.
"Won't you be afraid ..to 'coma aback
alone?'� Giles asked.
"No, 'I do -it often, and there's . a'
moon."
They anent through the kitchen, and
When the door was opened, old Muf-
fet .like a grey shadow slipped out
ahead of them .and was lost in the
gloom". The wind was blowing a
gale, and as they walked along in
the darkness, Giles) took Joan s arm,
anchoring her as it were v.gainst
the blast. "I can', .tell you," he,
said, "how glad I am that you are
here with that good woman. I sup-
pose I should regret your break with
your aunt, ,but. I don''t. Not after
seeing Mrs. Sears. A year wth het•
is 'better than a decade with Mrs.
Delafield." '
"Pen•elope''s a 'darlin; ," Joan agreed
"but there are times when I ,miss -
the fles'hpots." -
They walked on for a while in sil-
ence, 'then Joan added: "Ah -d there
are tirne;s when I ntiss•-,Drew."
All at once, tumultuou,siv, because
lie, was her ,friend wird becaust, there
in the windy dark it seemed easy to
give him her confidence, she told him
aft, about it. S,he began from the

co to bend me, to her will
and I would not." ,She told of her
final• rebellion and departure. But
she (lid not tell him ,that she had
be"•n to the bookshop and had seen
Scripps.
At the very last, came I,ho confes-
aion of Dre,w's visit and hi.;' wish to
