NOW GO OS WITH THE 8TORI
CHAPTER X.
Judith put ens hand to her head.
"But It's nothing,'' shs Insisted,
smiling shskUy. "Just dtstiness,
t guess, from the car. Hard to
realise I'm on land again."
Arthnr regarded her anxiously.
"Sure you feel better?"
"Of course. I'm all rlgdt now."
They went up the walk to the
house. A woman In gray morning
dress stood waiting in the door
way. "Mrs. Wheeler, the housekeep
er," Knight explained. "Been here
for years."
As they came op the stepj
Knight spoke heartily:
"Good morning, Mrs. Wheeler.
Fine to be home again! Judith,
this is Mrs. Wheeler, who can tell
yon everything there Is to know
sbout the bouse. Mrs. Wheeler,
Mrs. Knight"
Judith took the housekeeper's
hand and smiled. She saw a large,
middle-aged woman with an air of
capability. Mrs. Wheeler was
florid-faced and wore glasses. Her
dark hair was piled at the top of
her head. Shs seemed sggresslre
ly alert.
"Good morning, Mrs. Knight,"
the woman said. "I hope you bad
a good royage, ma ami
"Oh. yes, a fine voyage, thank
you."
They had stepped Into a broad
hallway which aeemed to be ths
center of the house. A winding
stairway arose In the background.
Doors at oath side led Into larger
rooms. Judith caught a quick lm
presslon of dull, unobtrusive fur-ntshln-s.
Nothing stood out It
terestlngly but thsre was a bugs
bouquet of red roses In a hideous
rase upon a table. Ererythlng
glistened and shone with polish.
It must all have been put In read
iness hurriedly, and the girl felt
she should be appreciative.
"How nU-e everything looks!
Jnditd said, turning to Mrs.
Wheeler. "Oh. I shsll have to ask
you a great many questions and
bare a long talk this afternoon,
Mrs. Wheeler. I know yon can
tell me so much."
A younget girl IB a maid's uni
form stepped forward to take Ju
dith's and Arthur's wraps.
"This Is Harriet," Mrs. Wheel
er Introduced the maid.
"How do you do, Harriet
Judith answered, offering the gi'l
her hand. Knight murmured
greeting, half of which was not
heard.
Mrs. Wheeler followed Judith
and Arthur Into the living room,
where logs were crackling in ths
fireplace. It was a long room
with windows on the east and
north. Morning sunlight came
streaming through the ornate cur-
Ulna. Heavy over-stuffed furni
ture snd several chains of mihog
any stood about. There were In
numerable footstools, small tables
and occasional pieces. Two Chi
nese rugs covsrsd the floor, very
good ones. Nothing was radical
ly wrong with the room, Judltn
told herself. Everything was In
good taste. The whole simply
tailed to fit together. Its atmos
phere (it there could be said to
be a trace of auch a quality, was
stolid, unintelligent wealth.
Mora red ruses bloomed on ths
mantle and large reading table.
Judith was determined to be
cheerful.
"The flowers are lovely," she
told the waiting Mrs. Wheeler.
"How thoughtful to have ordered
them."
"We always hare flowers when
the house Is open, ma'am," the
housekeeper said primly, but Ju
dith was certain the prslse had
plessed her.
"When would you like luncheon
ma'am?" the housekeeper contin
ued. Knight had drawn a cigar from
a humidor and was lighting It.
"Have It any time you want,
dear," he told Judith. "Tou won't
mind It I don't wait, do you?
Thought I'd like to run in and
get hold of R G. (R. G. Hunter)
before be gets oft to the club. I'll
be back quite early, but I'd rath
er not take time for lunch. Sure
you don't mind?"
Not In the least!" Judith as
sured htm, smiling. What else
could she say to a husband so
eager to be off?"
Tou can serve me in about an
hour and a halt," she told Mrs.
Wheeler. "I'm going to went to
rest a bit."
Would you like to go upstairs
now, ma am?"
Why I " Judith hesitated.
Yes, I suppose I would. Tou'rs P"1'
going to leave right away, aren't
you, Arthur?"
He had already summoned Har
riet, and was putting on his top
cost. "Be back by 4 o'clock
sure," he told Judith. "Rest up.
Mrs. Wbeeler'U attend to any
thing you want. Good by, dear."
They kissed. Then Knight pull
ed ths front door opsn and was
gone.
Judith felt lost In the big house.
"Let's look about down stairs
a little before we go to my room
which hsd a doorway leading Into
another chamber.

Wondering Judith walked after
her. Mrs Wheeler threw the doot
open and stepped back. Judith
looked Into a lavish "Tench bou

The room waa very girlish
that Is, It wss exsctly wbst the
taste of a 17-year-old school girl

older woman explained. "My

She's coming, you know, to
morrow morning." Judith said.
'Yea. So Mr. Knight's messsge
said. "Well, we'll have plenty
going on all light with Tony
here!"
Judith scarcely heard. She was
still marveling at the lavish rose
and blus taffeta curtains, the rose
velour chaise longue with Its In
numerable lace pillows, the bed,
dressing table and other plecca oi
Louis XIV furniture. Genuine
woods, delicately constructed and
prodigiously expensive! There wss

dolls languishing together upon

'Tony never would let m
change any ot those things," Mrs
Wheeler wss quick to defend her
self. "She said she liked things
sort of careless. My all this cost

good man. And he never has ths
heart to deny Tony anything. She

him for It."

she said to Mrs. Wheeler. She was keeper asked
going to add that it seemed to be
a very larga house, then changed
her mind, remembering that ser
vants must be properly Impressed.
The Knight residence waa a
large one. Architecturally It was
attractive, tut furnishings and
draperies throughout la.-ked
brightness and modernity. On the
first floor there wera the living
room, dining room, library, a
smaller room where Knight kept
desk which was known as "ths
study," and on the west side of
the house, half-enclosed In glass,
'sun room.'
Upstairs Judith found another
central hallway corresponding to
the ona below, six bedrooms.
Somewhere at the back of the
house there were quarters tor the
servants.
Harriet, the sew maid, had been
hired only a week ago, Mrs.
Wheeler said. Then there ws
Thank you," Judnth spoke up
quickly. "I do want to rest and
