wasn't aure that Mary had beard hint.
When ahe had aald good night, at
the doorway of the Koyal Danlelll,
Mary found It waa later than ahe
thought and with a little apprehensive
reeling went directly to her own
room.
There waa a light atlll burning In
Polly'a room, and reluctantly Mary
opened the door between their rooms
and looked In.
"Come In, Mary," called her mother,
Polly waa aiding op In bed, reading,

CHAPTER XIII
In the morning, bavin breakfasteo
In their respective rooms, aa waa their
custom, Mary, dressed for the street
came to ber mother'a door.
At the sight of Mary's pale face,
Polly's heart misgave ber. -bo knew
that ber own face waa pale, but slit
waa able to aay, In the chilliest ot
tones: "If you have made any plat,
to meet your father thla morning, I
will not Interfere."
"No," Mary answered In a tone
equally llfi-leaa. "We do not meet
until three o'clock, at the Accatletula."
"In that case, suppose we go to the
church of Kun Zaccarla thla morning
I Want to aee the Cellini Madonna
there, and we can walk."
It had all the appearance of a pleas
antly Idle morning. Though Po'lly held
her head high, ahe) waa surfer lug. The

any remark and stared unflinchingly

neiis might mean to a mldlle-sgod
woman who had not looked ahead or

thut morning Polly waa ready to cry
iiuurter; ready for any compromise
that would leave ber ber Maty.
Claude Dubba might have guessed
something of Polly s plight and been
sorry. He had fought his ovn fight,
and come through It whole, like the
sturdy soul be waa. Had Polly but
known It here. In Venice, was a
Claude who waa actuated by ao email,
revengeful feelings, but mo red only
by a real and very friendly desire to
help, and ais to ahare Mury. But
Polly, shuddering at the thought of
lonely years without Mary's cotupan
loiiKhlp, turned away with equal dls
tame from the thought of aharlng
Mury, and the grocery abop, with
Claude.
How could Mary conceive that ber
mother, ao long distrustful and acorn
ful of any emotion aave the maternal,
could turn with relief to tha thought
of cold, circumspect Loren Rangeley,
us contrasted with the Claude she re
membered. Claude represented to
Polly all the primitive emotions, with
the disagreeable background of a shop
Not hsvlng seen Claude for twenty
odd years, ahe created an Image of a
fat, middle-aged grocer with the on
controlled eiuotiona of a young man.
Alwaya there waa that ahep In th
background, and the Image csuaed ber
to shudder.
"It you wish to dine with your
father tonight, I ahall not mind," ahe
said to Mary aa they turmd toward
the hotel and luncheon.
"lie reasonable, ' Mothel," Mar)
pleaded. "Don't mnk,e me feel I've
lost my mother because I've found
my father."
Having made op her mind. Polly
waa one to carry things through gaily
"I'm afraid It will work out that way.
but, of course, I've nothing to do
with It"
"You have everything!" protested
Mary vehementis. "It'a all In yout
hands. Don't you aee Inst Father
well, he Just can't unless you give
some sign."
Polly's la.gh did not ring pleasantly
Id her daughter'a ears. "Clande
tahbs has been stating bla case rather
cleverly, I aee."
Mury stood rt'U on the bridge lead
log to their hotel, regardlese of the
crowd of chattering, atarlng Italian
who were passing by. "Oh Mother
you dou't get Father at all. He doesn't
think he baa any case. He thinks be
