The trlegram is intended to humiliate Farrell Armttags the millionaire v)ho is financing Uark'e London career. Farrell hopes that when he has made the arrogant artist suocessut Barbara tctll no longer 1(1 him. and will Hit stark tor 'ark's benefactor. Barbara tele graphs Mark's mother, who re plies that Mark does not need her. Chapter 85 MARK'S ULTIMATUM BARBARA told herself that she would write to Mark and ex plain that she suspected only a mood In him. Then, if It were more than a mood, he could send his call again. She made her way to her own room and lit her lamp. There was an old Venetian mirror here which aha had delicately re-gllded. She lit the candles that flanked It and looked at bor reflection. Candle-light was certainly flat tering. It made her hair the pale, delicate gold ot the gliding and un der esch wave It placed a shadow. It gave darkness to her eyes, the texture ot white velvet to her skin, mystery to the line ot her throat. She (elt as though someone stood at her shoulder, whose gaze Im possible but there was no available car. She hurried out without explana tion. She swung down a side-road and emerged Into a decorous street of offices. Before one of these stood a big, dark car which she recog nized. As she hesitated, its owner came across the pavement and she dashed up and spoke to him. "Sir James, could you possibly run me to the station? I might Just be able to catch the London ex press, If you would?" He started violently and peered at her over bis everlasting smirk. "Get lnl Got lnl By all means 1 Jones, slip along to the station as fast as you can. Pull up this rug, my dear Miss Barbara; the eve nings are far from warm lately. Though, bless me, you youngsters, don't seem to feel the cold I" Barbara was puzzled by bis man ner. Ho appeared to force himself to meet ber eyes and yet be was more syr ipy than usual as he fussed over ber. He had turned off the light In the roof Just as the car moved away but almost Immediate ly he turned It on again, "You've bad a wire from Mark, have you? I suppose he's not so well again. Natural he should send tor you quite natural, Leila tells me he's making a Bplash up there, 4 " ' E I T 'Li urri fc "I ALfii I 1 . J She read the massage seated on the ladder. gered upon ber. Not Mark not blew out the candles and currlod downstairs. The next few days left her with out word or sign from either ot the Lodelys, Tholr silence stretched her nerves and she threw herself In to her work to (orget the whole affair. Then, gradually, she lost the ense of being a naughty dleobe dlont child and began to paper the kitchen. She waa on the top of a atap-laddor, ber shears thrust Into the pocket ot ber smock, her thoughts straying towards tea and hot buttered toast, when the tele graph boy came up the path again. She called him In and read the message, seated on the top ot the ladder. Mark made himself per fectly clear. 'Dome fo me hero or ponitdcr our engagement at an end.' "No answer," ahe said. She bad to choose between ber self-respect and her marriage to Mark. There was no mistake about It Mark was not 111 or In trouble, ha waa Just determined that ahe should step out of the stream ot her own Ufa and coma to bint when be beckoned ber. She thought, sitting there In the gathering dusk, that aba had no oholca but to go; and she thought that, this love she had tor him was very' closs to fear and very close to hate. But she made no preparation to go. She sat there, thinking and wishing she could baTe finished the kitchen. Half an hour elapsed and then another telegraph boy lumbered up to the little house. She read: 'Please, Barbara.' There was uo more. Oh, but It was enoughl She dis missed the boy and flew about ber preparations. No mooning, now. In 15 minutes she was closing up the house and running Into the road. She thought she might catch the London train If she could get a car from a garage she knew. She was there sooner than she bad thought all the same. Wonderful, I think, conaldorlng everything. Yes. Leila stayed a night with you last week, I hoar?" "I'm afraid Bhe wasn't very oom fortablo." ' "Most kind of you to put yourself ( out. My girl's spoiled, I foar, and It's a bit Into to do nnythlug about 1L Cool and hard." Barbara was baroly listening. A part of hor mind was recording that 'Sugar,' though very nearly obsoqulous In manner, was tar from easy In her company; and an other part was prooccuplcd with times and distances. This other part took complete command as a long, shrill whistle tore across the lights ot the town. "There's my tralnl" At the same moment the chauf feur slowed, pushed aside the glass panel and spoke over his shoulder. "No use, sir. We can't make It now." Barbara, disappointed, prepared to alight. "Ono moment. Miss Barbara! It occurs to me but have you an al ternative plan?" "I bad bettor get to Taunton, I think. There's a chance ot catch ing a very good train that leaves there about nine." "One niomont! It occurs to me that perhaps you would allow me to send you to Taunton In thla car." Barbara, half out of the car, was quite unable to conceal bar stupe faction. So, apparently, wasjJonea, who all ' t gasped. "It's very kind ot you. I don't know how to thank you. But what about you? How will you get home?" "By train," 'Sugar' assured her. As the car movod off, Barbara glanced out ot the back window. 'Sugar Cane was standing In the middle f the road and she thought he was talking to himself.
