She tl‘ied to think of Lawrence Schofieldâ€"tried to believe that he was far the better man of the two, and that with him she would stand a greater chance of hap- piness, but common-sense and logic died against the magic of Chitten- ham’s arms and the touch of his lips. She only knew that during all the weeks since they parted in Switzer- land, she had ached for this moment, dreamed of it and longed for it, and that now in wite of her proud defian- ce, it had come, and when Chittenham asked again: “Do you love me,â€"â€"do you want me after all, Julie?” she had no answer. It was a long time before either of them spoke again. Chittenham did not attempt to kiss her, he just held her in his arms, his cheek against her hair, as if she had been a tired child who had come to him for comfort and protection. It was Julie who moved first. “Bim will be in soon. Poor Bim, I’ve been such a beast to her lately.” She drew a little back from ‘I'lvn. looking athim with eyes that were all wet and ashamed, and yet happier than he had seen them since that night in Switzerland. She let him draw her closely into his arms, and when he pressed her head down against his shoulder, she closed her eyes with a little sigh of spent resignation. ‘ Giles learns that Sadie Barrow, his ‘Wife, has gone in for spiritualism and is attending seances by a medium named Chryer. He calls on Julie, who is cold to him. He reproaches her for her reckless life. They q/uarrel, and-she leaves with Lawrence Schofield. Her friend, Bim Lennox, tells Giles that Julie really loves him. Lombard calls on him and says he is in need of money. He threatens that if Chit- tenham does not give him money he will spread the tale that he and Julie had spent the night together at St. Bernard Pass. Giles is indignant and shOws Lombard out. Later Julie and Schofield go to a movie together and'the pictures remind Julie of the Alps. She finds Chittenham waiting for her. She Bernard and Schofield becomes suspicious. On the Way home they get a newspaper which con- tainsithe news of the death abroad of the other Julie. At her flat she finds Chittenham waiting for her. She confesses to him that she loves him.

Through his friend Lombard, Giles Chittenham meets the “other Julie,” the notorious woman who had ruined Rodney’s life. She tells him that she is going to die; the doctors have given her up as incurable and she is leaving England. She is worried a- bout her cousin, the girl Chittenham loves. That Julie â€" his Julie â€" is going in fast company, among them a common little American girl named Sadie Barrow. And Sadie Barrow is Giles Chittenâ€" ham’s wife. He did not know that she was in England. That night he meets her at a. party at his mother’s Then he discovers that this girl is not the same Julie Farrow who ruined Rodney, but her cousin of the same name. She seems him when he con- fesses his love and his inability to marry her. They meet later in Lon- don, where she is going the pace that kills. Another man, Lawrence Scho- field, wants to marry her, in spite of her wild life.

' But she was not satisfied. 1 “Gilesâ€"supposing she won’t divorce you 2’” D “I am not afraid of that.” “But supposing she won’t?” Julie / “I am just wondering how all this came about,” she said brokenly. “How I . . . how you made me give in to you.

She and I have not been anything to one another for along time. Where are you goâ€" ing?" ' Julie had risen to her feet, gently disengaging his arms. “Will it sound very horrid of me if I say that I wish I didn’t?" she whisâ€" pered. “Noâ€"no, stay there. I want to talk to you. It’s still all so unreal â€"I feel -so muddledâ€"as if it’s just a dream that I can only faintly remem- ber.

A little line of pain creaâ€" sed her forehead. “You must be a Wonderful man if you can say that with such confidence,” she told him sadly. _, “What do you mean?” She closed her eyes wearily before the insistence of his. “Bim is awayâ€"” Chittenham said. “I rang her up before I came he”.

IYou know I’m an unbeliever.” m For an instant he was conscious of angry premonition; what did it mean? â€"then he laughed at himself. The idea was preposterous! Why should Lombard have followed him? He re- membered their last meetingâ€"and ILombard’s detestable insinuations. Chittenham’s face grew grim. Supposing Lombard had been wait- ‘ing outside Julie’s flat during the past five hours? ll “The evil spirits couldn’t get you, ‘eh?â€"~don’t worryâ€"” Giles laughed. l“I meant to come anyway.” ll “And, Gilesâ€"in case you’re angry ‘at meeting her again after what hap- pened the other nightâ€"Miss Farrow is lcoming!

Behind him was the sound of other steps, a little slower than his, and yet in some strange way seeming deliberâ€" ately to be dogging him. Chittenham glanced over his should- er, irritatineg conscious of being fol- lowed. A taxicab on the lookout for a late fare turned a corner, and Giles hailed it. At all events it would put an end once and for all to his interested folâ€" lower. As he slammed up the door he glanced backwards alsng the road the way he had come. “To tell you the truth, I’m just a tiny bit nervous! I’ve never been mixâ€" ed up in anything of the kind before, and I thought with you thereâ€"” “I only asked because she has sp0k_ {en about you several times. I think she rather likes you.” “Nonsense!” His voice sounded almost angry and Julie looked up at him in surprise. “Don’t .you want her to like you? She and I are great friends. I prefer her to any one I have met sinceâ€"~” She stopped with a little shrug of her shoulders. “What a question! I hardly know what to say,” he said lightly. The man was passing beneath a street lamp, aml in the sudden light ‘his figure seemed strangely familiar, although for the moment Chittenhan‘ could not place the resemblance. The taxicab moved away and then all at once he knew â€" it was Lom- bard. That was the resemblance he had seenâ€"Harry Lombard! ‘ “Need We‘suppose any such thing?” “I want to suppose everything. I want to know what the worst is that we may have to face.” Chittenham looked away from her, and there was a hard line about his mouth. “If such a thing happenedâ€"it would be for you to sayâ€"” he answered at last. ‘ “Such a scandal!” he teased Julie. “Neither of us would have a shred of reputation left if our best and dearest friends knew how abominably We have been behaving.” “I haven’t any best and dearest friends except Bimâ€"” she answered, and then abruptly: “Giles, what do you think of Sadie?” _ “Sadieâ€"" He was glad that as her cheek was resting against his shoulder she could not see his face. It seemed an ill omen that at this moment she should speak of his wife. He avoid- ed a deliberate answer. “What do you mean?” He looked at her sadly. “That then there would be only one way in which we could belong to each other, Julie.” For a moment she was silent, then with a swift little gesture she turned to him, hiding her face against his breast. It was two o’cloek before ‘ Giles thought of leaving the flat; She did not pretend to misunder- stand him, but the hot blood rose to her soft hair and her eyes fell. “Would you care well enough for that . . . if there was no other Way, Julie?” ace you at you and I met on the top of ,” Giles addedlfor her. nearly three in the morning PHONE 188 THE JONES COAL CO 1F0R COAL 0R WOOD.
