CHAPTEH IV ' AT ioor 01 1118 w" rm! Field paused and knocked. A maid bo raniemberod admitted btm and, as she saw him, ber (ace grew bard and chill. He beard ber mur mur something about seeing It Uadamo could tee blm and be waited In the gray and silver sit ting room. In a few moments Norma appeared and settled her self In a low chair. Field pulled another close to hers and dropped Into It 1 1 wonted to tell you. Norma, that I appreciate your attitude to Estelle about me. m . She answered In a level under tone, ber eyes on the rug at ber feet "I want to preserve tor ber as long as possible," sbe said, "all the Illusions that make life bap- pier. Then, too, yon were not ' there and I was. I couldn't very well say anything ill of you." Be did not fully understand this. Sbe saw It and smiled a trifle wanly. "You dont see mncb logic tn that, do you?" she questioned. "I see what you're getting at all light," he answered honestly, "but I think lt'a bunk!" It la only decent1' Be paid no attention to this but went on. "Norma are yon going to tell her nowT" She stiffened, becoming erect and tense.- "It would kill all that I . have done my best to nurture In her," she answered with the first show of the old warmth and feel - lng he had heard In her voice. "We will have to pretend a great many things that arent true and that I know now never were true." ' TH try to make It easy for you." he promised a trifle thickly. Be found himself close to unstead . In ess from the relief her words had brought him. "Jim." she began slowly and less confidently, "will yon promise me to be careful about the things, the , people women I mean whom she aees?" . "My dear Norma, I am less the gallant now. I am SO," he an . swered bluntly. - "She nodded, her head a bit high, her eyes suddenly chill. Then she stood up with the manner of roy alty at the moment of a dismissal Presently Field found himself- out side in the glare of the sunlight The Vay Norma's head could lift so proudly, bad always made him feel himself to be crude and rough. ., This, witb her dislike of scenes and her withdrawals into silence. . had made him more crude and rougher. i She was stm capable of the same trick, he realised; the trick of v making him feel far beneath her. "Damn it!" he thought blinking In the sunlight But there was a reason tor him to endure it now. "'''The reason was a slender girl who ' r looked much as Norma had when " he had married her with the intent to fame her and "bring her down bit" . " stretched long and black in the I water Field saw Pablito swabbing I out a fishing boat He saw also the enchanting bine of the white- decked water and the sway ef the tall palms against the depths of an almost cloudless, silver-blue I sky. Estelle would no doubt de-1 light in such things, as her mother I had before her. The camp had amazed ber. Well, tbere was no ether like It he decided com placently. Be followed the dock which melled of seaweed and salt and was always darkened and damp I from spray and when he was near , Pablito be spoke to him. "Nice day. Smith." Pablito stood erect "Tea, sir. , Fine," he agreed. "Lord, you're a good-looking I specimen," Field thought He said I aloud, "Ton usually run the 'SI!- , rer Dart,' don't you? I may go out I la It later." ' 'Tor. sir." Field turned then to go back to the land. Would' Estelle go out With her father, Pablito wondered. TVTORMA FIELD stood In the gray i L1 and silver sitting room where her husband hod left her. remem bering the aftermath of one of their early estrangements. She bad been stricken by remorse and re turned to him, expecting to find him overcast by grief over ber de . parture and alone. He bad, on the contrary, been neither overcast nor alone! Then she remembered "trying again"; endless efforts at "trying again." She remembered , the bruises which had come, oddly enough, from promises that were as weak as water. After that- some time after that she had be come old and lost ber bold upon hope and at last the worst of bis 1ns were but pallid beads in the long, dork chain that made ber nights and days. . She bad been like Estelle once, She realised, physically and men tally. Gentle to pain, bard in de fending others from It Kind to I others but stern with herself. The I woman sbe bad become let ber see the child she bad been.. A lovely child the child Estelle echoed. Norma Field stirred and moved . toward ber dressing room. Sbe KATHARINE HAVILAND-1 ATLUK It was a blindly aimed prayer, the only sort she could say now, fair ing to believe In much of anything. She had cared a great deal for Jim Field In her pitiably young years, she realised. She hoped Estolle would never care for any man qulto so much as she cared tor herself. THAT afternoon Pablito took Estelle and Jim Field for the first of their many rides together In the "Silver Dart" Estelle was stirred to silence by the riotous color, the salt languor ot the air, the biasing yellow and the utter greenness ot the shore "I think," she said slowly, "that I have never seen any place so beautiful!" As she spoke ber eyes rested upon Pablito and. seeing him, she knew suddenly that sbe bad never seen a young man who was so fine In form and face. She did not mention this. She could only wlsb, with a new hunger, that thoy might be friends. Sbe was sure this youth with the blue eyes and straw colored nalr would be a friend worth saving. The men tn the boat saw her; nothing and no one else. Field watched her steadily with a slight smile lifting and softening his some times cruel lips. Pabllto's eyes followed her with a breathless awe. He saw ber as a rare mixture ot child and woman. She bad a dignity, unusual In American girls, which made her at times seem far beyond her years. At other times, with the faint showing of a soft trustfulness, she was sweetly young. Appallingly young, Pablito thought knowing Field. "She knows everything ot good." he decided tenderly, "and nothing ot evil." And tor a moment bis heart turned cold as he wondered what lay before her. Estelle's soft brown hair blew and color came Into her cheeks which were a little thin because sbe had been growing so fast Be could not help watching her al most steadily. And again and again he found her face turned his way. The hum of the motor and the swish of water as it broke to a white-churned froth kept Pablito from hearing much that was said, but one question ot Field's shook his world tor him because It brought ber close. Field said, "I think IH have a fancy dress party for you here. Would yon like that?" "Oh, yes!" Estelle answered and because she had been so suddenly warmly and vibrantly happy Pab lito smiled without knowing It un til she answered his smile. No woman or girl had ever smiled on him before nnless tendering him, with her lift of lips, the wrong sort ot invitation. A barefoot boy who guards a drunkard does not hold the key that opens doorways into kindnesa Now he knew kindness and the difference in smiles and the knowl edge was so beautiful that it brought an ache to bis breast He thought "I love you and it's not puppy stuff. Ton're beautiful and kind. I love you!" And so came the lore ot a life time in a land wbere there I; warmth and early ripening.
