I have nevetjseeri a sadder face than Robert S avarin's as be finished telling me of his early hopeless love for Lillian Underwood, when, as a girl,; she brightened with her pretty fresh enthusiasm his dingy studio. He gazed down at the stream, which, lit by the dancing sunbeams.

I turned to him helplessly, for I did not wish to forestall his confi dence. "You mean " "That the sight of Mrs. Underwood has brought back to me tenfold the feeling with which I once regarded hsr," he said tensely, : "And the strength of my will is broken. I can not be near her and not let her know how I feel toward her. She isn't free even to listen to me. Therefore it Is better that I go away." He stopped and gazed down the stream again, while I wrestled with the temptation to urge him to stair at any cost, and to reveal to Lllllanlev erything he had told me. For despite my Puritan training, or perhaps, queerly enough because of it, I have no sympathy with, no reverence for the marital tie" which binds Lillian and Harry Underwood together. Lillian had married Harry Underwood before the death of her first husband, the unspeakable Mor ton, whose unjust divorce of her had shadowed and. branded her life. The HOWARD FOSTER PLAYERS ALL NEW PLAYS NEW PICTURES BLIGH THEATRE J 1 n later marriage was, as I knew, Elmp ly one of convenienc3 and of com fort. In the real, true sense it was no marriage at all. although Lillian had played the role Of devoted wire, as whole heartsdly as she did any thing entrusted to her. And Harry Underwood had reward ed her years of care and tenderness by deserting her whrm she brought home her child from whom she had so long been separated, calmly re questing In a letter from South Am erica that she divorce him. This Lil lian was determined not to do. be cause of the stigma that would attach ty little Marion were her mother again to appear In divorce proceed ings, but secretly I did not see how she would be able-to avoid it. If Harry Underwoodwas determined to drag her through the divorce court he would do it. especially when nrged oh. as I was sure he was. by Grace Drarsr. who had fled with him to South America after her last mad at tempt to win Dicky from me. What Madge Said. V I look a sudden resolution. I could not bid Knbert Savarin to stay, but I at least could give him an Inkling of how matters stood. When I had told him Lillian's story. I had stopped with her husband's desertion of her. I had said no word of Harry Under wood's coldly cruel proposal of di vorce. "There's something I think you ought to know before yon full de cide to go away," I said timiaiy. He turned to me quickly., "Till it to me at once," he said peremptorilv. and I saw that his reeling for Lillian was so strong that in discussing any matter concerning her he lost sight of the eottrtesy of speech due any one else. I told him In as few words as pos ible of Harry Underwood's demand for a divorce, Lillian's refusal to cite him one. her reasons for refus al and my conviction that some way In defiance of all law and reason, Harry Underwood's indomitable wip vould find a way to bring Lillian to his terms. He listened quietly, and only the clenching of his hands be trayed the agitation he must have felt at my recital. At its close he was silent for.a long minute, and then he cried out fiercely, passionately: "If She Could Only" "If she. could only care for Tne, I would feel that I had the right to fight her battles for her! Bat as that is impossible, I am tied. Impo tent!" "What makes yon so certain that it is impossible?" I asked, my b,eart beating wildly with the daring of my own question. But something quite outside of myself seemed urging me on to say thing3 I had thought not to utter. "What do you mean?" he counter-j queried, whirling and seizing my arm in a grip that hurt. - ' "Nothing." I said, "only that I think ' ycu . underestimate your own power. I know that Mrs. Under wood remember your early friend ship with much pleasure, and I do .. a A noi sec wny you snouiun i try i win her." i - j lie held me by the arm. looking at me steadily for a minute. I knew that he didn't see me at all, that ho was looking into some possibility of the future. At last he loosened bis grasp and spoke Elowly, heavily, i "1 wish I could believe you but I cannot. No, there is but one thing I can do for Mrs. Underwood, and I "hop I shall have strength given me to do that thing when the time comes." ,i (To be continued) EIGHT CHILDKKr HAD CROUP.
