Chaster It
ABOUT LIFE
IT iu Nichols who broka th 1-
knee, bringing Georgi down
from ber seventh heaven with
faint shock.
"So you had a good thna this
afternoon, Robin, ' ba said.
"I had a good lunch," aha admit
ted. "I've never had such a lunch in
my life. We started with melon
and cold soup, and we finished up
with ice pudding with hot chocolate
aauce all over It"
"It all sounds a bit chilly," Nich
olas said.
"It wasn't," Oeorgie answered,
"We hs4 hot things in between. 1
should Ilka to have a lunch Hke
that every day."
"You'd soon gat tired ot It One
gets tired ot everything."
"Do they?" Oeorgie sounded
doubtful. "I've never bad very much
to get tired of."
"That's where you are fortunate,"
be told her. "It's when people have
a surfeit ot everything that they
get bored and weary and begin to
look round for something which
they can t have."
"What things they can't haver
"Things which belong to other
people."
"Like other people's husbands,
Gaorgle thought She felt rather
than saw that he turned to look at
ber.
"I envy you," be said suddenly.
Ton know so little of life and you
will have such fun finding out all
about It."
"Did you find It fun?"
"Did I? Well, I found It out very
mrrerentiy from the way you will,
I found It out artificially, among
people who don't really count a
great deal."
"I think film people count enor
mously, If you mean them," Oeorgie
laid. "Look at the pleasure they
give people like me. Why, before I
ever knew you, you'd given me so
much to think about" she broke
off.
"And since you've known me, the
great disillusion has set in, I sup
pose," Boyd said cynically. "It's a
mistake for people like me ever to
appear In tho flesh. Not that I count
one lota now."
"You count a lot of iotas," Oeor
gie said quaintly. "Mora lotas to
ma now than yon did before."
There was a little silence, thon
Boyd said,
"Some day, Robin, you will make
a man very happy."
She laughed a little tremulously.
"I would much rather that some
man made me happy," she told htm.
"I think It must be wonderful to
have someone all your very own. to
know that when he comes to the
house, he comes to see you; to know
that you can write to him and tell
him how much you love him with
out It being thought perfoctly aw
ful; to know that if you're unhappy
you can rush to him and tell him all
about it and be sure that he'll un
derstand and ba kind."
DOYD said: "I am afraid there are
not many men iu tho world who
would como up to your Ideals, Rob
in." Oeorgie sighed. "And If there
were, they'd all ba married, I ex
pect, she said unthinkingly.
They had reached the five-barred
gate sow, where they bad stopped
and talked the first morning attor
Nicholas came to the Boar's Head,
and unconsciously they stopped
now.
Oeorgie leaned her arms on the
gate and stared up at the moon. "It
teems funny that everyone in the
world looks at the same moon,
doesn't It?" she said suddenly. "We
here, and Mothsr In America, and
tomorrow you in Germany. By the
way. Mother Is coming home. She
arrives next Friday, the twenty
second," she added with sudden re
membrance ot that cable.
"Does she? Are you glad?"
"I don't know. I suppose I ought
to be."
Thar was a little silence, then
Boyd said abruptly: "Your friend
Asber ... Is bis father a doctor by
any chance?"
Oeorgie did soma swift thinking.
If she said yes, Nicholas might
think she had been discussing him
with Clifford, and she knew ha
would hate that
"He hasn't got as far as telling
me about his family," she said, not
quite truthfully.
"I only asked," Boyd answered,
"because I know a Dr. Asher. He
lives in London too."
The silence felt again, which she
presently broke.
"Shall you go back to America,
afterwards?"
He laughed. "The more I think
of America the further It seems to
recede," be said with a touch of bit
terness. "I shall certainly never go
back unless" he did not finish his
sentence, but Oeorgie understood.
"It will be a success," she said
quickly, and then, "But If It ien't
what will you do then?"
It seemed a long Hme until be
answered.
"I suppose I eball pass teto the
land of forgotten men."
"You will never be forgotten,"
Oeorgie said almost angrily. '1
shan't forget you, anyway."
"Then no doubt you will be the
solitary exception," he answered
with grim mirth.
"There's your wife," Georgia said
impulsively, then caught her breathJ
"Yes," Nicholas echoed. "There
Is certainly my wife."
"And will she coma and settle
down here with you?"
Boyd thought suddenly of bis
parting from Bernle and of her re
peated parrot-cry: "I can't live In
England ... I can't live In Eng
land" "She doos not like England," ha
said quietly.
"Doesn't like It!" Oeorgie wss
Indignant "What does that mat.
ter?" aha demanded. "If you're
here, It ought not to matter wheth
er she likes it or not" She broke
off, wondering If onoe again she
had said too much.
Boyd turned suddenly, so thst
his back was to tbe gate.
"Do you know, Robin," he said.
In a, curiously soft voice. "You are
a very dear little girl?"
"Am I?" Her eyes were like stars
In tbe pale moonlight "Then do
you like me a little?"
"Mors than a little, perhaps," he
admitted reluctantly.
IJER eyes met bis for a moment
then sbe broke out
"And yet you said you didn't want
to be friends with me any more?"
"Perhaps that is the reason. My
friendship is no use to you. If they
make me . . . less hideous again, I
shall go back to my old life, and II
not"
"If not," Oeorgie said quickly,
you can still be friends with ma
I shouldn't care If you were as hide
ous as ... as the Hunchback ot No
tre Damo," she said eagerly, casting
about In her mind for the most viv
id symbol she knew. "As a matter
of fact I didn't think he was so hide
ous. He was so pathetic."
And do you think I am pathet
ic?"
There was a little silence, tben
Georgle said very gently:
"I think you're Just a darling."
Nicholas turned his head sharply
away, and Oeorgie went on. "1
don't suppose I ought to say things
like this, though 1 really can't see
why. If you see a flower nobody
minds if you say how beautiful It
is, or a tree, a great strong, beauti
ful tree" Sbe stopped, a little
ashamed ot her eloquence.
And It the tree Is blasted and
falling?" Nicholas said.
Georgle crept a little nearer to
him.
"It's still the same tree," she said.
She hesitated a moment then
slipped a hand into his.
"It seems such a pity that you
won't let ma be as nice to you as I
want to be," she said simply.
Boyd took his hand awsy.
"Do you know that you are say
ing all the things to me that I ought
to be saying to you?" he asked.
She made a helpless little ges
ture, and after a moment Boyd
said: "My wife also arrives next
Friday, Robin."
"Oh, but I thought you said
"She has changed her mind and
Is coming sooner."
Oeorgie stared down at the short
grass at her feet; it looked silvery
In the psle moonlight
"Woll," she said at last, "I sup
pose It's only natural she should
want to be with you as soon as pos
sible." "As you would want to be, It you
were my wife," he said.
"I should never have left you It I
had been your wife," Oeorgie an
swered. In the following silence a clock
struck ten; Oeorgie counted each
stroke mechanically.
