ARBARA'S note reached nay
the ' am 'morning' and that
afternoon he was late In keeping
an appointment with Rita.
The moment she saw ' dim she
knew Instinctively that something
untoward had -occurred. But she
did not question him, and for the
moment he volunteered no Informa
tion. ' After a few perfunctory remarks
he seated himself at the piano and
commenced to play. But Jazz' was
not In his heart. After he hid
bungled a couple of tunes he swung
around abruptly on the piano stool.
"I'm going to be' free soon, Rita.
A bachelor once more."
A propotal from Ray but a otrsnB,e
She glanced towards blm quickly.
"You've heard from your wife?"
. Her oi wia -unusually sharp.
"This' morning.- Sbe ilutends
divorcing mo somewhere In Mexico.
1 believe It takes no time down
there."
A pause. Rita had no means of
telling from his face What ho , was
thinking.
I "You're you're not going to con
test It?"
There was a hint of breathless
ness In her voice.
."Of course not, sharply,' "It was
agreed when wo parted that she
was at perfect liberty to do this,
should she want to."
"But you ildu't want her to,
Ray?" . A' .
He stared down at the butt of
bis clgaret.
"No. frankly 1 didn't." ;
"I'm I'm sorry." s
. He fidgeted with the piano keys,
rubbing a knuckle along, the yellow
tinged Ivory. Then, abruptly, with
out warning, he started to play.
Improvising as he went along,
breaking Dually Into the "Grlovtn'
Blues," tho song he had written
the night he and Barbara had sep
arated. (
He was playing It harshly and
crudely, making those Jan notes
vibrate through the little silting
loom with its basket furniture and

"Why . did you leave her when
you love her, Ray?" '
- Irritably he threw bis flat down
hard on the plnno keys.
. "Because It was Impossible liv

' lilta nodded. 8he was too wise
to Attempt to argue with him. That,
she knew, to be ono of the Insoluble
mysteries of life.
i He worked solidly or the -remainder
of tbe afternoon, doggedly
and persistently. Yet, at the end
of several hours, he had accom
plished little. Presently, when twi
light had faded to sliver dusk, she
went out Into the kitchen to make
him a cup of tea before he set out
tor the club.- Bhe sol the little
tray on a wicker table besido the
piano. Rny, noticing It suddenly,
pulled her towards him.
"RItn, you dear Bport, you. You've

have put those tunes across at the
club. In fnct, I'd still be tooting

of doing anything better tor years
and years. , . . An! I'n. surely cer
tain I'd never have, written this
score wlthont your help. You'vo
been a wonderful pal . . ."
He broke oft abruptly, his voice
grown husky.
SUe wasn't looking at blm. Pres
ently, hearing a suspicious sniffle,
Ray crossed over to her and, put
ting a band under her chin, he
raised her faco to his.
, "Why the tears, Rita? I haven't
said anything (hat's hurt you?"
"Ot courso you haven't said any
thing Hint's hurt me, you old silly."
"Then why , , . ?"
"Nothing. . . . It's Just . . ,"
A sort ot tcatntlve pause. He
drew her closer.
"Rita, you like me, don't you?"
' She tried to smile, to think- ot
some wise remark, -but It would
not come. i.
"Sure."
' "You like me a whole heap?"
She nodded, one hand playing
with the lapel ot his coat. She
knew sho oould not speak without
making a foal ot herself, so she did
not. ' v !.
"Well enough to marry, once I'm
free? I know this Is a stupid tlmo
to ask you, dear, but I've thought
lately you careu."
Tho hand, that had been flugor
lug his Inpel, crept up around -his
neck, crept up und hold him to her
tightly. She clung to him tor many
minutes without saying a word.
Ho looked down at her tenderly,
aftecilonatoly, knowing by tho trem
bling of her body clost to his, the
short convulsive nobhlitg that shook
her, what sho had been sport
enough to keep from him all these
months. That ah loved him.
Teml.-rly his own nrms went
nbnut her. Ilo told himself he
loved her, lull with a love funda

"That's settled, eh. Kim? Direct
