She wanted to go in there and tear that unknown young man's eyes out! She wanted to slap him, hard, across his hateful, smug face. She wanted to scream, "Who do you think you are, saying that I should be chloroformed? What do you know about me? Is It my fault my grandfather left me millions? Is It my fault that the money breeds envy everywhere I go? I didn't earn it, no. Perhaps I don't deserve It But just having it doesn't make me bad, black and inhuman! ... "You think I'm stupid and arro gant and conceited. I'm not. I'd like to work with my mind, my brain. You dont know how I've tried, sometimes, to do something find something worthwhile. They laugh at met Even Mr. jWeeming laughs! i "I'm a prisoner, that's what I am. Grandfather's millions the life he brought me up to live keep me locked up in a little world I hate. I'm bored, do you hear? I've known that a long time but I never knew, until I heard you, how bitter it is. "What else will there ever be? What else will I have? What am I living for? Where are the thrills, the satisfactions, the contentment they talk about and write about in books? Where's the love the ec static, passionate, soul-lifting love I see in movies, read of, dream of?" . - The impulse to rush in there and confront the owner of that scorn ful voice died inside her. Her anger went with it, and now there was only the fear. She felt lost and helpless and suddenly she thought, "I hate him for making me look at my life! I hate him for tearing away the little pieces of camou flage I'.v) managed to hide in . . ." She turned, and peered through the narrow crack of the opened door. "I hate him!" It was as if she had to see him had to trans fer this hatred to some concrete image. AH she could see was a broad, gray back, sitting in the chair she had vacated. A brown hand rested on the arm of the chair a big' hand, with strong, . blunt fingers. And above the wide gray shoulders she saw a tanned neck and a well shaped head with dark hair. Fiercely her gloved hands curie' into nsts. "Ill see you again, y you chloroformer, you!" t promised him silently. "Ill see you gain and 111 make you eat that chloroform!" -:. v.; -.'! T5UT she was almost herself again when she walked into the lobby of the Algique. Clarence moved toward her from the dis creetly lighted lounge. "Carat" he whispered, "You are weary, no? Come, we shall have a drink." His black eyes were ten derly solicitous, his hand on her . rm gentle. She thought, "How shrewd Clar- tice Is! How well he understands e. He knows so much about! women . . ." . , . i Over her glass she asked him. rDo you understand everything about me, Clarence? Just every thing? Or only when I'm tired or (not tired?" He made a little gesture. "Who I can understand a woman, Bea trice? I try. I study you. I love you so, and want always to please you " You mean, you want always to be able to read me. So that you Won't ask me for something at the wrong moment , So that, at the right moments, you can wind me around your finger?" She was thinking out loud. There was no resentment in her tone, it was merely an appraisal. Clarence was in love with her. He had to be, to have given up Miml Frothingham who had just as much money and woaud have been easier to manage. In a way, Clarence was amazingly percep tive. She twirled the slim glass in her fingers. "Clarence," she said softly. "Clarence, sucrose I told you I'm unhappy, bored, rest less. What would you say?" "Say?" The black eyes slowed. and his hands reached for hers. I would say mv little bird needs relaxation, happiness, new scenes. love, tenderness. In short Bea-i trice, i would say that it is time for the honeymoon!" a CHE drew her hands away. "But Just yet, Clarence. I I can't really see that it's going to be any different after we're married. Ex cept for the house at Westbury, of course. But that " She dronned her eves. A ihnrn little ache of disappointment stung her. Almost she had hoped that beneath Clarence's flatter? and lovemaktng beneath the polished manners, the amusing little tricks she would find some depth to comfort her some sympathy that would warm her, something real DOUGHNUTS eoayaioHT. taai, nca Slavics, INC. and strong to evoke response, "Clarence," she said lightly at last "It's the same old trouble. Tired business men have it with their wives, darling, and rich girls like me have it with their fiances. You don't understand me!" "Ah! A moment ago, you thought I understood all too welL" "Let's leave it" she said. a "OUT somehow, it could not be left Even while they sat to gether in her car, and Jenkins drove to the club where Clarence lived, it nagged at her. At last she burst out "Clarence, I think I'll go in for good works. Those social workers have always taken my checks but never let me do anything. I'm going to fix that! I want to do something! It's the people who work who always seem to be so happy." "Work to do in the world?" he scoffed. "Ah, love, it's not the people who work who seem so happy. It is only the people who are not happy who, looking at other people, think they are hap py. You must know, to a girl in a five-and-ten-cent store, you ap pear to be the happiest creature in the world." "I wish I were a girl in a five-and-ten-cent store!" she cried. "I'd live. I'd worry. I'd fall in love I'd have some real feelings, some real emotions!" "You are having some real emo tions now," said Clarence, very softly. "Of course, you want to live!" His arms reached for her, and he held her tight "With me, you shall live. I shall teach you what life is, Beatrice. I love you. I love these little hands and your bright hair and your bad little temper." He put a finger under her chin and lifted her face until her eyes met his. There was a fire in his eyes, a dark and burning look that THIS CURIOUS WORLD IN WALES, L- THE eiSBAT WESTESN l?5iS?. (SAiL-wy HAS TRAINED DO&S ON ITS PJVfOLJU." ttW. f-J THEIR AAINJ DUTY rHTl TJ . .
