Field assured me that after Ite had
come back the marquis shunned
ladies' society. If lee went to one
of their soiree or receptions or
balls, or whatever you call them,
of their soirees or receptions or
two, and go to the club and stay
there playing cards or billiards.

"Lost ?" said Gerald.
"Well, lost tbe only, woman he'd

you—oan guess that a woman was at
the bottom of it. It's always a
woman. Don't the F'rencri say when-

woman'? I'm not a Feencli scholar."
Gerald nodded.
