Two eager lips met his In such passionate abandon that for a long time after Tony and Gussle had gone away toward the boulevard Philip MacCauley lay face downward on the shore, the sun peeping at him from the eastern hilt. « « e e e e e Paul Pendlehaven lay wide awake In his bed, hit sunken eyes tilled with darkened sorrow. His brother had sieved with him the most o f the night and now sat beside him. “ WUl you sleep!" asked Doctor John. T i l try," was the response. “I could If I knew where she was." Doctor John reached over add took hit brother's thin hand. T h e morning may bring her back.” he said soothingly. "And Paul, old man. If you worry like this, you'll be back where you were four weeks ago.” The Invalid sighed heavily. “ I ’ve grown so accustomed to her.” he said In excuse, "and somehow since you told me of her people. I fear some thing may have happened to her.” “ W e'll hope for the best,” said John Pendlehaven. rising. “ Now If I run down for a wink or two w ill you lie quietly while I'm gone?” "Yes.” came In a breath, and true to hi* word. Paul Pendlehaven scarcely breathed for a long while after his brother went out, although his heavy gray eyes stared at the breaking dawn. I f anyone had told him a month ago, he could have longed for any human being as he now longed for Tony De von, he wouldn't have believed IL He dreaded the day without her dear smile bending over him. Perhaps she would never come back. A t that thought he groaned. I f he could only go to sleep. Only close his eyes— His lids sank slowly down, and he slept dtfully. Mingled In hls'dreara of Tony Devon came a sharp sound. That, like Tony, must be a dream, too, that sound that was out of the ordinary noises of the day. for although the atm had called Into life the bees and birds, Ithaca stilt slumbered. The noise came again, striking against his nervous brain and waking him. Suddenly, with panting breath and beating pulses, he lifted himself on hit elbow. The screen had fallen from the window nnd perhaps ten sec onds passed as he stared mutely at It. Then like a nhot front a gun, Tony t>evon sprang through the window In to the room. For a moment the sick man gazed at her with mingled emo tions. Something dreadful had hap pened to her. She was so while, so wralthllke and changed, yet blotching the pallor of her face were reddlili blue bruises. Then the bare feet took the distance between them In a bound. The dlmplee at the corners o f her Ups lived a moment nnd were gone. When Paul Pendlehaven dropped back on the pillow, she spoke. "M e and Gnssle's buck." she aald brokenly. “ I climbed up the tree and got to tho roof, fearin' to wake up the other folks In the house.” She sat down beside the bed. “ Somehow I knew you'd bo lookin' for me. sir.“ C H APTER X. “ Me and Gusale’s Back,” Brokenly. Sha Said room he found his brother in sound slumber, and Tony Devon, her face discolored with bruises, fast asleep in the chair by the bedside. It was a stubborn Tony that faced IVvctor John that morning. Adroitly he tried to draw from her the reason for her extreme paleness, for the dark marks stretched across her face, and the meaning of the shudders that sud denly attacked her. “ I can't tell,” she reiterated in dis tress as she had to his brother. “ Please don't ask me.” That her mother was dead, she firm ly believed. This she did tell the doc tor between many sobs and tears. “ I ’ll never see her ever any more,” she told him tremulously. “ And If you'll let me. I’ll live here forever and forever and take care o f Doctor Paul." "M y brother can't get along without you. dear,” he said, deeply touched. “ I f you had seen how be grieved last night, you wouldn't have made that remark." "1 know he likes me,” said the girl, sighing, “ and ! love him. Why, I love him— ” She searched the man's face and caught his smile. "B etter than you do me?" he came In with. “ Yes," aald Tonnlbel. honestly, “ but you next— " Then she thought of Philip, o f the hours he had held her against hla breast, o f the kiss in the morning's dawn, and she fell Into ■ bashful silence. When Doctor Pendlehaven told Mrs. Curtis that Tony had returned, her face drew down In a sulky frown. "But we needn’t enre," Katherine said afterward, "she doesn’t bother us much. For my part I can't see how Cousin Paul standi her.” “ Johu saya Paul almost died last night,” took up Mrs. Curtla. “ I sup pose she’s one of the tilings we've The Stoning. Never before since he had taken np his work o f redemption had Philip MacCauley found the hours so long and ao difficult to live through. Day after day he canoed to the place Tony had promised to meet him, only to re turn to Ithaca more at sea than ever. He had the sickening Idea that the girl he had grown to love was again In the clutches of her brute o f a fa ther and Reginald Brown. Tony, too, began to lose the high spirits that had returned almost im mediately after her escape from the canal boat. The gray eyes grew dark ly circled, the lovely mouth seemed t# have lost the power to smile. Paul Pendlehaven noted all this with apprehension. He questioned the glH time after time, asking her If she felt well. If there was anything she wanted, but she always replied In the negative. One day after they had had their dinner, he sat looking at her curiously. She was close to the window reading a book, when he caused her to look up by calling her name. “ Run downstairs. Tony dear,” he went on, “ and tell my brother to com* up here before office hours, will you, honey?” The girl rose, laying aside her book. She dreaded venturing Into Mrs. Cur tis' presence and shivered when she remembered the critical Katherine who looked her over with supercilious tole ration whenever they happened to meet. But she made no complaint and went slowly downstairs The dining room door waa closed, but ths sound o f velcea from within told her the family was at dinner. She opened the door slowly and stepped Inside. For one moment her vision was obscured by the fright that sud denly took possession o f her. As the blur cleared from her eye*, she saw John Pendlehaven smiling at her. Then n sharp ejaculation from some one els# swung her gaze from ths doctor's faon, and It settled on— Philip MacCauley. “ I thought, oh, you w oro d ea d." I thought iTO Bit CO NTINU ED .) A Roast.
