Her fear communicated itself. In the dark room, the moon lit sea rippling- as It seemed against the rerandah, sba and Cllre sat up (n bed. whispering. She'd spotted her former husband pn the beach that morning. She'd followed him to Maxim's where, ac cording to recipe, he was Indulging In too many cocktails. That after noon she'd slipped out to spy on Blm again. He hadn't budged. In the baccarat room that evening he'd been gambling awajr his fa ther's fortune like a madman. "Bat does he know we're here! Has be Interfered with you?" Cllre tssked. A weary shake ot the puuled poad. "Lou-Lou's with Dicky all dolled up." "Then we should worry! We'll remove to Blarrlta tomorrow." In the morning when he remind ed her oi their plans for flight, she astounded him. "It wouldn't be right"- "How not right!" "To leare Dicky In his- weak ness." "What would you gain by reason ing with him!" "I could save htm. Lou-Lou's with him. She's all dolled up like a prin cess. She's the girl. If you're forgot ten, for whom he stole my coat. A cad Influence, I'm anxious." The argument bade fair to go on endlessly, till she pricked his pride. "Yon can only bare one motive (or forbidding me to talk to him that yon don't trust me." The meeting took place that after noon. She had written Dicky a formal note, inviting him to tea at the Ste. Barbe Oolt Club. As Cllre and she approached the last green, they espied blm thank heavens, he was minus Lou-Lou I seated blond, sober and bo-flannelled beneath one ot those mush room umbrellas which glre shade to tables In hot climates. "Hello, Dlckyl Think yon know my husband!" The two men grinned their hos tility. Santa did the talking. When Iced drinks bad been served, she wasted no time In explaining her mission. Cllre bad noted the coquettlshness with which shd had dressed, aim ing to make the moat of her ap pearance. She followed the same tactics in her conrersatlon, expos ing to her ex-husband a more gen tle side of her nature than he bad over guessed existed. He turned to Cllre. , "I wouldn't know her tor the ame wife." She was all sweetness and con- Ideratlon. From a thousand an gles she worked on blm. He'd blamed malignant circumstances tor his failure. He was rich now- had the chance for which he'd pro teased that he wis always search ing. She begged him to brace up and seise his opportunity. "I'm not married to you any longer," she capped her peraua- The Bulck sedan, being driven by Mrs. R. C. Oreen, waa completely demolished Monday afternoon at the eorner of Central and Jackaon streets when the car collided with a truck belonging to Vie Medford Construct ion company. Mrs. Oreen suffered minor Injuries to her knee.

Cllre felt like an Infidel at an erangellstlc meeting. He gazed away at the shadowy Pyrenees, at the arc ot sea flashing like a mir ror. He didn't believe in all this lush. "Don't see why I should be proud. At the same time don't see why I should be sorry." More prayerful pleading between Santa and her ex-husband. Cllve excused himself and went of to chat with the club secretary. When he returned, he was greeted wltb the glad news that Dicky had prom ised reformation. He had pledged himself to abandon Lou-Lou, to re turn Immediately to America, to forswear the derll and all his works. He was going to make good so that Santa might be proud of blm. Till he sailed, he sought their company. Their honeymoon be came a threesome. He embarrassed Cllre by his gratitude. "If 1 don't keep near your Influ ence, I shall fly back to tempta tion." Cllre was by no manner of means certain that he wasn't being hum bugged. He didn't breathe freely till he'd seen the prodigal on hoard the train, bound for the purer at mosphere ot self-conquest and Chi cago. In the little time that remained he and Santa strore to recover tbelr Interrupted ardor. They had partly succeeded, when their peace was disrupted by the cabled news tbat Mr. Cleaaby's firm had crashed. Olive's Imagination at once visual ised wha lay before him. He would arrive in Now York to learn that he was out of employment. His case would be precisely the same as Dak's: he would be financially de pendent on Santa. Inability to sup port her had been the prime cause of Dak's matrimonial shipwreck. 'But darling, there are heaps ot Jobs for clever men and you're clever." Santa made light of bis forebodings while they packed. The Madrid to Paris express halt ed Just long enough for them to climb aboard. They had scarcely reached their compartment when the wheels were again turning. Lowering the window, they leaned out shoulder to shoulder, drinking in the flower-spiced twilight. Paradise was fading. There was something heart-breaking about Its complete Indifference to their de parture. Tbey plunged through a cutting; when they emerged St. Jean de Lus, where they had tasted ecstasy, was lost to sight.
