Her traveling baga bad been
placed in the adjoining dressing
room. Elinor opened them, and,
looking over her trocks, suddenly
wished she had something that

'own to luncheon. She finally

as becoming. She mast remem
ber to tack Celeste's handkerchief
into her sleeve In order to show
It to Barrett.
She dressed her hair la a roll
at the back of her neck. She bad
worn It that way daring those
falser happy days when Barrett
had spent ao much time with her.
He had admired it that way.
Then, looking at the small
clock on the mantelpiece, she
hesitated. It waa only one o'clock,
it seemed Incredible that her
whole world could have changed
as tt had in the space of an hour.
She wanted to go down but she
did not want to intrude upon Bar
rett. Perhaps he would not want
ber to coma down before aha
mast. Aa ahe hesitated she heard
a tap on the door. She opened it
to And Higgles, the atolldness of
tha perfectly trained servant's
face erased by the smile he could
not subdue.
Mr. Colvln, said the butler, bad
sent word that he wished to speak
with Mrs. Colvln. Would she Join
him down stairs whenever she
was ready?
"Thank you, Hlggins," Elinor
said. He disappeared and after
a deep breath she stepped Into
the upper ball. Barrett was
standing at the foot of the stairs,
one hand on a newel post, looking
up at ber. '
"Look oat for that treacherous
step!" be called warnlngly. He
found be could not keep his eyes
from ber as she came down. He
had never seen her looking more
beautiful.

announced. At his words she

"Oh!" she shlspcred on a deep

"I wanted yon to know right

"It means everything," she
stated In a hash.

The girl laughed, nodding.
She liked the rear room to
which he led ber. Its solidity
spoke ot all she bad missed with
out knowing It. The room bad a
look of plenty and ot peace. She
could not imagine her mother
whining for money In that room
or anyone planning to deceive an

For a moment hla tace clouded.
"I dont suppose," he said, "that

They wen served a dear soap,

"Toar feet dont touch the floor

ried people hid such moods and
tried to seem only casually inter
ested in one another at first, hid
them even from their servants.
And Mr. Barrett waa usually so
slow to voice a feeling!
"HIggina," said Barrett, "cant
yoa hunt ap a small footstool for
Mrs. Colvln? I want yon to be
perfectly comfortable, dear," he
added across the table.
"Thank yon. darling, yon are
so thoughtful."' she murmured.
Suddenly they both laughed and

Joke bat for both ot them, tor one

HIggina came back to raise the
Venetian cat work cloth and push

"Ia that better, Mrs. Ootria?"
he asked.
"Yea, thank yoa, Higgras."
