She had not confided in Mrs. Bad way her apprehension of most of the men she had seen. “I hope you will find very little professional work to do,” Mrs. Rad way said to Bettington. He was charmed by her low, yet distinct, voice. He had thought Lavery’s portrait to be idealized until he met the original of it. He had often. In other years, rend of her. It seemed likoly, when she was frst married, that she would I accomplish that almost Impossible ambition, a salon. She had hlrth, money, wit and beauty, And with these advantages she had chosen Railway among the many who put their nil at her feet. He looked from her to the financier. What was it. Bettington asked himself, that had imide him, In her eyes, more attractive than any other mnn, Ambition probably, nnd the enthusiasm aroused by his big moment nt the capital. He won dered how much she had repented of It. There could be no doubt now as to her disillusions, lie thought he could discover a trace of sad ness in her lovely face; and. like Ln GIncondn, “her eyelids were n little weary.” Whatever uncomfortable pauses Id the conversation there were, due to Radway’s incessant grumbling at the food, the motion of the boat and his inability tn enjoy flavors that once fascinated him, she filled in without «seeming effort. She had. no doubt, become adept nt this. Bettington thought. After lunch Railway went to his big stateroom nt the extreme bow of the boat. t “Got some work to do,” he announced. “It will keep me busy till dinner.” Mrs. Railway knew ho was going to sleep. Then he would wake, feeling wretched, lie w<»uld take n highball, two or three, Thon he would dress for dinner and the real man would betray himself She was not sure whether she was sorry or glad that there was a new element Introduced by Doctor Watte.

This was a pleasant faced mnn of three- end-twenty, who obviously shared his uncle’s opinion of Clements. The boy seemed excited and wor ried. “What do yon think of the skip per?” Clements asked “A hard man to handle.” Betting ton returned, ‘‘as all obstinate men are.” “He’s of no Importance,” Clem ents said Idly. “Did you notice how •Sparks’ seemed to be upset?

Look, that’s Rail way.” Itadway had come on deck to walk himself into a condition which would permit him to enjoy an iin necessary luncheon. “Cocktails,” he commanded, as he He caught sight of Clements. Stopped short when he saw the Stranger. “Who’s this?" “Doctor Waite,” Clements an- swered. “You wired me to ship a physician aboard.” “I remember now.” Radway an swered. “Why haven't I seen you before this?” His manner was abrupt and hard. He looked doubtfully at this tall, self possessed man who re- turned his glare tranquilly “The doctor doesn’t like to con fess to being a bit seasick,” Clem ents answen d readily. “Then a cocktail will do him good,” Railway decided. “Bring four.

You are not here for that. You are here to patch me up If the need occurs.” “Patching won’t help you much,’’ Bettington remarked. “If you’re not up to the Job. I’ll tell Clements to ship some one who Is.” Abruptly Radway turned on his heel. He did not In the least mind If he had left his physician angry. The anger of tools and a poor man was a fool.
