JUST ONE KISS
ATER that night as Barbara and
Ray lay aide by aide In tba old
fashioned, four-poster bed tbat was
supposed, at one tlm.e, to bavo
held the body ot a queen, aba re
marked tentatively,
"J low did you make out tonight,
Ray?"
Ills tone was casual,
"I lost 20 pounds. That's about
1100, Isn't It?"
She. rolled around to face bim. A
abaft of moonlight stole In through
the window, up the bed and sur
rounded her face like a balo. It
was troubled,
"I'm sorry. I'll give you tbe
notes In the morning."
"I told you I would pay my own
gambling debts."
"But, Ray, you haven't the
money."
"I'll find It somehow. I may
win It back tomorrow."-
Barbara sighed and they lay si
lent. She was beginning to learn
that In Buch a mood It was useless
to argue with him. She made a
little movemont with ber band to
reach across and toucb bis hair,
but Just then be broke tbe silence.
"You and Henderson seemed to
have a good deal to aay to each
other tonight You were out ot
tbe room tor the greater part ot
tbe evening."
"He was showing me oyer tbe
house."
"Evidently he didn't tblnk that
I would be sufficiently Interested
or he might have waited until 1
could have gone along with you."
His tone rattled her.
"You can't blame him tor tbat.
I must say your enthusiasm for bis
place hasn't been particularly no
tlceablo!" "No But, at least, he might
have given me the opportunity, In
stead of taking you off alone. . .
"Oh! Ray," she Interrupted him.
"Don't be small and narrow-minded."
A pause.
"I see. I won't trouble you with
It again. Good-nlglit."
She waited a moment, a long
moment, It may have been min
utes, hoping be would say some
thing further. But he did not He
lay motionless on the opposite edge
ot tbe bed. There was a noticeable
spaco between them. It hurt Bar
bara tbat spaco.
She sighed once, twice, more
audibly the second time. Still he
made no movement and so present
ly, being tired out, ber lids closed
over ber eyes, leaving a suspicious
molstness where her lashos curved
onto her cbeeks.
Tho next day, at the return
game, Ray playod, It possible, even
worse, and this time, when he rose
from the table, he had mora than
doubled his debt-to the major. He
gave tho oldor man an I. O. U.
payable live days trom then, the
day they were scheduled to leave.
During tea Ray seemed preoe
cuplod, and Barbara noticed with
a certain secret misgiving that the
air ot restlossness about him had
Increased.
Afterwards be rose abruptly, an
nounced that bo Intended taking a
stroll and left the room. Outside,
he paused only to Inquire the way
ot the butler before setting out at
a quick pace In the direction of
the nearest postofllce. from where
he sent off an urgent telegram to
London.
e e e
The hunt turned a corner and
swooped down the valley, tho
bounds racing ahead, the horses
behind, their glossy bodies taut
and quivering as they proudly bore
the huntamen, a glimmer ot scar
let, black capped. In tbe struggling
morning sunshine.
We'll have him soon," cried
Major Torklns aa he pointed to
where, on the next rise, the fox
could bo seen, a brown streak.
"We should be on blm before he
takes cover In the Hammond
scrub," cried Larlng, a young fel
low who had Joined tbe bouse party
tbe previous night. "Jove! that
Mrs. Lowther Is a splendid horso
woman!" he exclaimed, as Baf
bara and Henderson shot by them.
Barbara, stunning In ber trim
khaki riding kit with a bard tclt
bat- crusbed down over ber hair
that gleamed pure copper in the
sunshine, was glorying In tbe ex
citement ot the cbase. She loved
riding, especially over tbe green
English fields,' but, all the same,
she was wishing tbat it bad been
Ray Instead of Henderson riding
by her side. , .
Tho night before, after their host
bad spoken ot the proposed hunt
Ray bad remarked, ;
"Dumin It all, Barbara, I can't
go. I haven t a riding outfit. '
'You could have ordered one la
London," sho pointed out "It
never occurred to me that you
hadn't one."
"Tbe last riding I did was In
Canada and the costume I wore
then would have hardly suited a
turnout like this!" and he grinned,
remembering the muddy corduroy
pants and the red woolen sweater
that bad comprised his costume
then.
"Anyhow, I guess Henderson will
take care ot you," be remarked
presently, not without a toucb of
sarcasm.
She threw up her head. "Very
likely bo will." But, all tho same,
ber keenly anticipated pleasure In
the hunt was gone.
They killed Into In the afternoon.
Mounting a rise, they saw the fox
In the hollow, crouching up against
a giant boulder. Its ears back, Its
teeth bared, as It made its last des
perate light for 'life against the
yelping dogs.
Barbara shuddered and turned
her head away.
, "Somehow,. I can't get used to
this this sport of yours. It seems
cruel and Inhuman to me. All of
us matched against ono poor fox.
It makes me want to rush forward
and thrash those dogs off with my
whip."
'We don't always have it our
way, Henderson reminded her.
"Many a time, if he's cunning, the
fox outwits us and, I heliove, In
somo Instances, ho enjoys the
chase as much as we do. It's all
over now. Co mo on, I'm going to
present you with the brush to re
member this by."
'No, thanks," said Barbara quick
ly. "I don't tblnk I want to re
member this scene."
He shrugged In annoyance.
They were on their way home,
crashing through the pine woods,
when Henderson Bald, i
"1 hope you're enjoying yourself
on this house party, Barbara."
"I am. You're giving me a won
derful tlmo. I'm ever so grateful
to you, Hendy,"
, "I don't want your gratitude,
Barbara. 1 want you to like me."
She opened her eyes wide.
"But 1 do, you old silly. What
ever niado you think I didn't?"
"You didn't like me well enough
to prevent your marrying the other
uinn." iv
She frowned slightly.
"Don't make mo feel badly, Hen
dy, please. You can like poople
In different ways, you know. I ltko
you ns a frlond, my dear."
"Bah! Who wants friendship?
You talk like Aunt Jane In nn 'Ad
vice to the Lovolorn' column."
It was growing dark In the
woods. From tho carpet of pine
needles under foot camo a damp,
mildewy smell that permeated the
forest, a not unpleasant smell. The
narrowness of tho path necessi
tated their horses walking abreast
and, suddenly leaning across. Hen-
desou took hold ot har bridle and
pulled both their animals to a halt
"Barbara kiss mo. You surely
like me well enough for that!"
Then, when he saw her hesltnte,
"Come along, this won't be the first
tlmo, you know."
She flushed slightly, remember
ing those moonlight nights on the
Vendena boforo she had married
Ray, How little consequence a
kiss hod been to her then! How
different everything seemed now!
