the average, were the most sev

The fly In the day's ointment,
however, from the standpoint of
analysis, was that the total turn

SYNOPSIS
: Gilbert Windon had been in love
with lovely Denise Rendale from
the moment he met her but she had
eyes for . no one except Keith
' Sheldie, handsome young playboy.
However, Keith and Denise break
up when the irresponsible Keith
does not offer to marry Denise
upon learning of her father's finan
cial ruin. Keith frankly explained
that he was solely dependent upon
his wealthy father, and to marry
meant being disinherited. Denise's
sister, Felicia, suggests that she
marry "money" immediately as Fe
licla herself had done. The latter
loved the late Dnane Fenton but
married the unexciting, though
reliable, Eustace Gardiner Dayne
when Duane failed her. When Gil
bert proposes, Denise honestly
tells him she loves someone else,
but accepts him on the condition
that the marriage be a formal one
and, if at the end of a year she Is
not happy, he will free her. It was
Keith who precipitated matters. If
tie had not telephoned just at that
moment, suggesting that he and
Denise make up and spend the
week-end together, it is doubtful
she would have accepted Gilbert.
CHAPTER VII
That telephone conversation,
Keith knew very well, was himself
at his worst. He regretted it
through two days, sincerely, but
could notedde the manner of his
apology. Denise's last words, that
ahe would marry Gilbert Windon,
he did not take with particular seri
ousness, judging that she had said
them because he had flicked her
pride. But he did consider in those
days, for the first time in the year
he had "admired? Denise, the impli
cations of that adrniration, and
recognized that it was deeper than
he had guessed- And yet, he did
not want to marry. Marriage was
simply not in his present scheme of
life. t
At breakfast on the second morn
ing, opposite his father, around
whom that present scheme of life
had to revolve, Sheldie, Senior,
broke the silence from behind the
single newspaper which ne anoraea
by saying: "How often do you
wish I were dead, KeHhr
It was not as surprising an open
ing of breakfast-table conversation
as it would sound to owe who did net
know the elder Sheldie. It did net
even cause the house-man to lift his
yet from pouring coffee. -
But Keith sighed. What In the
newspaper had produced one of his
father's furious moods this time, he
could not tell. Probably the an
nouncement of some new Demo
cratic policy 1 However, it was a
little wearying so early in the morn
ing. He waited for the house man to
cave the room. Then he said
quietly: "I sometimes do wonder
why you so much dislike me."
His father-put down the news
paper, and looked him up and down.

that look had made him feel

Keith smiled. "As I've said be

His father's eyebrows, which were

that he remembered that pathetic
hulk so often, and that the remem
brance always made him wince.
Literally, it had no relevance. His
father, the doctor said, was strong
as an ox still, in spite of his gout;
and his teeth were in excellent con
dition! But there was something
about that caged animal making
futile gestures of rage, and the man
now opposite him, that was so alike.
Time had so ruthlessly gone past
them both.
He said : ' "Anything amusing in
the newspaper? May I see it, if
you're through, Father?"
"Not through." His father picked
it up again.
Keith made himself drink his cof
fee calmly. The daily irritation of
that single newspaper, insisted up
on by his father, had by repetition
nearly lost its force as no many
"2 dislike yon because you're
things had lost their force In the
long conflict of their life together.
Only the fact at the root of that
conflict had power still.
He looked uo to the mantelnieee
behind his father's head, and to the
portrait of his mother Mary Sheldie
hanging there. He had her lovely
looks; there was no doubt of that.
The thought, as always, gave him
a kind of wry amusement. For he
had no feeling about her (since he'd
never seen her to remember her)
stronger than a kind of respect,
mingled with curiosity. How had
she managed couraga to defy his
father at last! That dark gentle
glance of hers did not tell him, nor
the shy, wistful smile of her curv
ing red mouth.
Mary Lane she'd been, only child
of excellent people without a great
deal of money. Eighteen years old
when his father swooped into her
life like an eagle. Keith Sheldie,
Junior, who sometimes considered
himself cursed with too much imagi
nation, could well enough imagine
that wooing that his father, who
waa not young even then, but must
have had great charm (aa he had in

railroads, mines and companies:
that he must have impressed that
slender girl tremendously, with the
very drive of his nature ; and that,
married to her, he must occasion

times while he was pursuing his
pirate's career of adding fortune to

At any rate, when he her son waa
