jTeataas bad-gone to bis room bait
boar earHer. There was a
UtermiMi tor Elinor and Barrett,
ay wasntDg to dietarb her, de
c Mod to poke It beneath ber door.
He bad writing to do and be knew
itbat be eould not sleep. Long
traaDeng bad made It possible tor
una to soncentrate and thereby
gain a sort ot relief. He worked
bat bis mind was not really on bis
work. Again and again, as he sat
writing, bis pen wonld slow and
itbe objects be was describing
objects be bad aoearthed after
eentsries ot hiding in the earth
would fade to be replaced by
'Elinor's face.
Hard moments tfaose; moments
when. It was all be could do to
stay at bis desk. Often they left
him spent and shaking. It was
the futility of the situation that
troubled bim, the fact that it wat
all so unnecessary and was mak
Ing Elinor so miserable.
He tapped on her door and to
bis surprise beard her say, "Comt
In I"
"It's I Barrett," be explained.
"Coma In." she repeated.
He opened the door. She wat
dttlng op In bed, the light from a
lamp beside ber shining down on
bar hair.
"Hare yoa a moment to spare t"
1 be asked.
"Of coarse." He didn't under
stand this. "I brought np a tele
gram tbat came for you," he said.
Unor took It and he sat down
ss a cliafr that was near her. She
am open tne envelope with Iti
mall transparent window. Then,
' "Mother's married I" aba gasped.
SHE gar him tbe message and

Chicago merchant wnoes reputa
tion Barrett knew well a Blue
beard Croesna with a string of dis
carded wires In bis cupboard. He
would, Barrett reflected, be a
Dutch even for Lids.
"Weill' be said, and could
think ot ao more suitable com
ment. ! expected that ar something
Hfce It." minor admitted, "but not
Quits so soon." Shs grew silent
then. Barrett felt shs was trying
to say something more and tbat
It was not easy -for ber to begin.
He had bis own speech to make
and ba wanted to get It over.
"Elinor," be said, and then best
tsted. "Test" Why was she looking
at him In tbat way? it was dan
gerous for both ot them.
"Elinor, 1 want to tell yoa tbat
I respect yoa wholly and In every
way. 1 haven 1 ala-aya I bad aa
idea a rather fixed Idea that
yon were carrying on some sort et
affair with Bob Telfare. I'm
thoroughly ashamed ot tbat now
and I bopa yoa can forgive ma.
I know how line yon are In every
way and bsve always been. I"
be paused, balked.
"Bat, Barrett! I eoaldnt do a
thing like tbat!" she said quickly.
I couldn't! ITs seen too much
of It to be ablt to Indulge ta It
myself. I've been square tbat
way, but not In others. I've been
email, Barrett! I know I bsve."
He saw tbat ber Hps were trem
bling. "I don't sea that," be
disagreed.
"Tea, yoa dot Or yoa eould
st yoa wouldl I've made yoa so
onheppy!"
"That wasn't yoar taakt. be aa
sared ber. "I know I hart yoa
desperately."
She shook bar bead violently.
1 hurt myself," shs confessed
ansteadrly, "by acting the way 1
have."
e e e
SB began to cry- "he had
cried ao often ta the last
weeks. Barrett moved toward
ber; be could not belp It. Be
settled on tbe edge of tbe bed and
drew ber into bis arms. Ha patted
her back with one big hand, held
her pressed dose to him with the
other. Has own ayes were sting
ing. I want to make yea happy,"
fas beard her say brokenly.
K yoa're happy then 1 wHl
be," be soM ber. hardly mora
eaeadHy.
"an a Mtle time, Barrett," aba
said. "IH ba lust as I was be
fore. I need a Hub) more time ta
get adjusted."
"Dearest, I want yoa so ba
bappy. That's aU I care about!"
"Do yoa mean yoa still lore
me?"
"Darttogt Be didn't Intend
that hM arm should tighten but K
dld. He hid bis face against her
hair. He managed to say, "It's
been bell!"
"I love yoa!" Elinor said. Then,
"Barry! Barry!" lor she bad fek
tbe sob that shook him.
Sbe remembered Bessie's words.
Ber arms were around him bow,
holding bim tightly. Bessie bad
said yoa only loved truly when
yoa wanted to help the one yoa
loved to forget old wounds. Well.
Elinor knew that shs loved Bar
rett BOW.
He raised bis race from ber
sboaMer. "I'm sorry, Minor," hs
said. .
"Notbing matters bat yoar hap
piness! " she broke In as be
paused. She ran an unsteady
hand over his dear, stiff, sandy
hoed hair. Shs tried to smile at
bim. His lips twitched; yet again
bis eyes filled.
Be kissed her beads then,
snowing In tba way be kissed
tbem all tba banger be had felt,
all tbe great love be had for ber.
He woald be endlessly patient, be
declared. It only she would assure
him tbat some day shs might feel
as she bad before. He wonld do
everything everything to make
It easy. She was tbe one woman
in bis Ufa. There was Do ons
else. There never eontd be any
other. Be would Bever forgive
himself for having doabted ber
fineness.
"I worship yoa!" be bad said
soaghly, then hid bis face once
mops against ber shoulder.
