Mrs. Stafford called and Mrs. Colrin excused herself. She went to He down and asked not to be dwturbed." Barrett's face lost color. He hesi tated a moment and then, all his eagerness drained from him by fear, mount eM the staira. He tapped on the door that was dosed between their rooms, heard Elinor, say, "Come in if it'-a you, Bar rett" Not "dearest" or "Barry," but "Barrett." He opened the ' door. She was standing, wrapped in the yellow liei- ligee, by & window. He saw that her hands were tightly gripped and knew that if he could touch them he would find them cold in spite of the day's heat. . "I'd rather yon didn't kiss me. please," she en id breathlessly as he neared iier. "You may be quite certain," he said, "that I never shall unless you'd much rather I would. I think you know tnatr "Yes, I do," she answered. There was a pause, and then Elinor said (Slowly, "Mother's told me. DARHETT said slowly. "Suppose we sit down and talk this over? Just what has your mother told you?" , Elinor had dropped to the foot of (he chaise longue. Hands clasped on her knees, she looked like a frightened- child on the verge of tears, Barrett drew a chair near and sat down, leaning toward her. He looked so big and strong, yet gentle, she thought. But he had been cruel, too, and unfair to her. He' had cheated though Rhe had given him a heart filled with truth and eager response to his lore. "Mother told me , that that you have an adopted son at the home of a widow who lives in the country, And that the child looks like you. Why haven't you ever told me? Why did you adopt him, Barrett t" "I can't tell you that," be heard himself answer in a dull monotone. "Don't you think I should haTe known? "I don't know," he answered dully, "I I told you everything that mat tered. Barrett! When the affair involves a wo man a man cannot always tell ev erything " he stated. Her cheeks burned with anger roused by a sharp flame of jealousy. So he was still sheltering this wo man who had come before her! "You admit you are sheltering aome woman? she asked. ; "Yes, Elinor." His eyes troubled her. . He was suffering. Even through her own pain she saw that. "You knew her before you knew me?" "Yes, dear" "Long before?" "Years." 1 "You were very young V "Yes, and I haven't felt young since except at those timee when you have shown me that yon cared for me. "Please!" she bepged, shrinking. , He dropped his face to his hands, groaned and then sat erect, shifting uneasily in hie chair. Then again, ward but did not meet her eyes. In forearms on his knees, he sat for- stead he looked down at the rug at bis feet. If he looked at her he knew he might easily blurt out the whole story. "I wish you could believe," he said slowly and miserably, "that things are not always as they seem, dear that I love you truly and as you should be loved, that I would never hurt you willingly. It's it's killing me not to explain!"
