Out side, twlilfilu was moving In, a cold spring wind In its wake. Tho, leaf Inns arms of tile nearest tree rubbed friit fully against tho house, tho lire craclilod "Happy?", Inquired Nor man, contentedly. "Perfectly.'' "V.'tsh this could go on forever," ho inuseil, "no more outside Influ encii. founds archaic, mayhe, hut I hullevo there's a primitive need In ovory man for a homo of his own; y'ktww, tho kind of a need thut forces him to go out and iiiuU good in business llko " "Llko tho cnvcmnii In tho forest made good with his hilly club J" In quired Judith, "Judy, you're laughing at mo." "No I'm not. I'm just thinking how nico it is to ho your particular woman, to say nothing of living In such a cave." "1 llko this cava too," ho said, hnyh.hly possosslvo.' Sho knew ho had had hut little homo life; us Cllit had luld, ".Plenty of houso and nobody In It." Ilo settled back again, and then Into their peaceful moment ciuno tho whirr of the tulopbono. Judith, not wanting to listen, couldn't help hoarlng a row words nnd was ready for something unpleasant by the lime lie returned. "Judo" under tho bravo scarlet coat his shoulders wore sugglng. "1 forgot to tell you. Lamporo has called a mooting of stockholders and the board ot directors for tho company, tomorrow at throe. Ho wautB you thoro." She nodded. Sho remembered dimly that Poppy Neville wos glv log a one o'clock li.ucr.eon and Bhe hnd promised to holp. Would she hnvo time to chinige' Sho shouldn't go to such a mooting In a milled silk suit and Dolly Vardon hat. "Judith," Norman Interrupted her thoughts, "I'd promised myself I wouldn't discuss this Devlni mat- tor with you, but you're my wlfo and I can't lot you go to that mooting unpropared. I want you to know what other people know. "Judy-girl, I wonder If you real ized that nig Tom had boon losing his mind during tho last few months of hlsllfo; In fact that ho had a serious brain affliction ot tho time ho drew up that new will?" JUDITH Jumped from tho enclr- cling haven ot her husband's arm. j "Norman," sho cried. ! "Thoro, Judy, don't tnko It llko that. It was bound to be a shock to you, I know, hut I thought It was hotter for mo to toll yon than somo- one olso." "Norman," she repeated, this tlmo brokenly. "Yes dear, It probably camo from sort ot a belated sun stroke. You ronicmhor how wo suffered on that trip? Why, honllhy as I am, thoro wora tlmos when I nearly went under. It sooms Hlg Tom stood up while ho was actually on tho Job. but tho moment ho got back homo whoro he could reins, tho whole thing camo down on him llko a ton of brick." ; "What do you moan?" "If you'll remember, Judy, ho hod a slight stroko the dn aftor his ro turn. From then on he began to grow queer. Kvorybody In tho leital department noticed . . . whal's Iho ninttor?" Judith stood before him. eyes nar rowed. body rigid with emollon. "So that's what they're saying!" she began In tho low voice Norman had co mo to rccognlie as one of anger "tho . . . tho cads. Llslen, Nor man Dale, you go to l.umpero nod tell lllm ,ho's the lowest kind of s liar there Is: the kind who ftlll try to destroy tho reputation of o man who rnn'l defend hli.trelf." ".liidllh, will you lUldn to res ion?" "To roason, gladly, whoro Is It?" Norman's dark oyes wore flowing In the firelight, his chlD had Jutted forward with Scotch stubbqroncBs "you'll admit ho kept you work ing all night tho night after bis stroke. Was that an evidence of sanity." "Aftor what you've Just said, Sot-' man, it was evidence of more than Hanlty . , . It was sheer genius. Only a man facing death could have- had the foresight to do what I3lg Tom Bevlns did that night." "I suppose that you, a twenty-, four-year-old " "Ma'teol culls mo an office girl,".: stippllad Judith bitterly. j "Leave Mu'teel out of thla," I snapped Norman. "Try to loavo her out," laughed Judith. "You wore saying, that a twenty-four-yoar-old ollice glr 'pre sumes,' Is tho next word Isn't It?" "Alright . . . prosumos to know more than brilliant, tried and proven engineers and lawyors.". "That's what you really bollevc," the suld with sudden conviction, (lion, "Norman, do you soo what this Is doing to us?" "It needn't," ho replied, aroso and walked to the door, "as long as Llgo is taking the woek off, Instead ot iiio day I'll hnvo to go down and look at thut furnaco." Judith walked slowly upstairs, uudrc-iscd mechanically and slid Into bed. Sho felt exhausted, Tho quick exhilaration (it anger hud burned out. leaving her numb. Down to tho west tho full moon begun Its ascent blocked by tho oak tree before Ilia window. Slowly It eased Into vlow, seemingly climb-, lug from limb to limb. 1 N OILMAN would coma up, they would talk It ovor and regret their Hurry of Lemper, Ilo would coino up boforo the moon Touched tho limb with tho queer hump. But It flattened Its sliver aurfuco against tho flllgtee of topmost boughs and sailed ou Into tho cloar bluo, with no sound from below. Judith was asleop when Norman, hair rumpled, oyes blinking even In the soft glow of t'..o bed lamp, did appcur. She didn't sea hlin stand and stare down at her, batllod. troubled look on his fnco. liven bad she seon tho look, sho couldn't hnvo known how much llko a child aha appeared to the man. In deferonce to her now dignity ns a matron she had let her hair grow and It lay sproad In becoming disorder on her pillow. Her eyes wore (ear stained Her body, fuller now and health ily pink, duo to Delphy's untiring euro, lay chid In maize yellow paja mas, ono foot and ono arm hanging ovor tho edge of the bed. Carefully Norman moved thorn back, pulled tho covers high, thon wont to tho chair lioforo the window. They spoke qulotly at breakfast, tho approhcnslvo Delphy and Llgo hnvorlng around llko two solicitous black birds. "Shall I cnll at Novllle's for you?" Normnn asked us ho was leaving. "No," Judith answorcd, "as long as you belong to the II rm rotnlned by tho Ilovlns womon, It would bo loss embarrassing for you if I come as Dig Tom's stenographer, rather thon your wlfo." "Just as you say." Ho kissed her and loft, and Judith felt an unrea soning desire to weep because ho hadn't Insisted upon standing by hor through the coming ordenl. Judith was afterwards to wonder how sho manngo'l to llvo through Poppy's luncheon. Hor borulllod frock ot dark blululi groen, and pert, small hat, won the hearty npprovnl of Poppy's guests. "Look as though you'd boon clip pod from the top of a candy boi,"' ono guest remarked. Sho thought of this Inter, tor sho hadn't hnd tlmo to rush homo nnd chnngo nnd was forced to attend tho board meeting In her party frock, and there was small comfort. , In tho smartness ot her ensemhlo as alio suw universal disapproval In tho fuees of tho men gathered thoro.

Preliminaries over, a meeting ot the stockholders was called and l.ampere, their elected chairman arose. "Mrs. Hale," ho began, "prior to your coming, tho hoard of directors held a closed meeting.

Speaker Ralncy expressed tlio opin ion Wirt's allegations "have been shown to bo silly, ibut.tf we call these additional persons, hfa statements will get sillier and sillier." Representative Leh loach (R., N. J,), a member of the commit tee, disagreed with tho "slUy" Judgment, and told reporters: ; p "I think Dr. Wirt got off to a vory good start. His testimony at least shows the necessity or making n thorough investigation." Toward the close of today's session, Wirt suggested that the committee summon Lewis W. Douglas, budget director, and W. I. Westervelt, Chi cago business man formerly with, tho farm administration. They, Wirt as serted, could throw more light on the alleged plotting to bring communism. Speaker Ralney's name figured, too. Wirt quoting Westervelt as having said "he had auked Rainey what con gress was going p do, and Rainey re plied that congress would assemble. pass certain laws, stay in, session un til May or Juno, and within a month or six weeks the government would take over somo Industries 'and then I don't know what will happen.'

"Mitts Kneeland said," he went on, "that Tugwcll said: 'Lf wo .begin to plan nationally we must change once and for all our statutes and consti tution.' " He also'tcstlfled Miss Kneeland had quoted the asslutaut secretary of ag riculture to the effect that "It was Impossible to have a planned econ omy and have big business operating Industry.' , ' ; Representative Bui winkle (D,, N. C.) wanted to know who had talked of - President Roosevelt as a "Keren sky," later to bo replaced .by a "Sta lin." , "Lawrence Todd," Wirt replied. As to Westervelt, the schoolmaster testified the Chlcagoan had said "Dr. Frederic C. Howe (head of the AAA consumers council ) had told him that if there was a way to stop feeding people n federal relief that quicker progress could 'bo mado toward what wo are after.". ,, ' Westervelt also was quoted as hav ing said Tugwell asserted he could get $1,000,000 for a special school for "recent college graduates," and that It would be "easy to Innoculato them, with Ideas about the new planned economy."
