"I don't care to bandy words with you,
young woman. Tell me "
"You heodn't to please me, you know.
And I slm'n't tell you anything."
"Why "
"My business," said Sally, with all the
insolenco the knew how to Infuse Into her
tone. "I think we covered that question
rather completely last nlght-or rather
this morning. I Imagined It was settled.
In fact, it wns. I don't caro to reopen
It- but I will say thls-or repeat It, if you
prefer: I'm not going to permit jou to
Interfere In my private affairs."
"You refuse to tell mo what you've
written?"
"For tho last tlmo positively."
"See here," Mrs. Blandish ventured,
after a baffled moment, bo reasonable.
There's no sense In making mo loso my
temper "
"I m sure I don't wish you to."
"Then tell me "
"Xp!"
"Must I threaten you?"
Sally elevated supercilious eyebrows.
"If you like."
"I liiivo a. way to force you to obey
me."
"Oh?" There was nn accent in this In
nocent syllable cunningly calculated to
madden.
"Very well. If you will have it. Do
you recall a certain letter of Introduc
tion?" "Why-no."
"Thnt you brought mo from Mrs. Corn
wnllls English?"
"What do you mcan7"
"Don't bo stupid. You surely are not
prepared to deny thnt you enmo to mo
Inst Wednesday, looking for work, with
what purported to bo a loiter of recom
mendation from Mrs. English,"
"I'leaso go on."
"Well," Mrs. Standlsh announced tri
umphantly, "i kept that letter, of course,
nnd now I'vo had occasion to look close
ly, I find It's a forgory."
Tlensol" Sally fnltoied.
"I tell you, 1 have safo In my posses
sion a letter recommending you to me
nnd signed with tho forged signature of
Mrs. Cornwnllls English. If necessary
to protect m.vsolf, I shnll not scruple to
exhibit that letter."
"Oh!" With n gnsp ot Incredulity Sally
sat down ond staled at this Impudent lu
tilgnntc. "Sow will you tell me whnt you've
written? No. I won't trust you to tell inc.
Give me thnt envelope. I'll see for my
self." "It Isn't possible," Sally eald, "that
jou would do anything so cruel and un
just and dlshonc.it!"
"Dishonest? I daro say jou consider
yourself a Judge "
"t can't bellevo It of you, Mrs. Stan
dlsh." "That's your personal affair, of course.
You'vo asked mo not to Interfere "
Sho permitted Sally to think It over,
iiieantlmo coming closer, holding out her
hand with nn effect of confident pntlonco.
"Surely you wouldn't show that forgery
jou'vo mado up to Mrs. Gosnold?"
"I don't know what jou mean by
'forgcrj- I'vo mado up.' I shn'n't hcsltato
to show tho forgery you brought me."
"I guessed nil along," Sally told her,
"that you wero not what you mado your
self out to be, neither a good woman nor
a kind one. But I nover for a moment
Imnglncd you would stoop to such In
famy "
"Now that's settled, bo good enough"
"But what mantes you so afraid I'll tell
Mrs. Gosnold nbout last night?"
"To protect joursclf, of course. I don't
believe j'ou mean to confess "
"Confess!"
"Tako ndvantngo of this opportunity to
restoro tho Jewels and get off without
punishment. Probnblj- you can't. Prob-nblj-
tho man you met outside nnd gave
thorn to Is bj' now so far away that j'ou
couldn't oven If you wnnted to "
"Walt a minute. Let mo get this
straight. I don't want to make nnj- mis
take." "Senaiule of you, I'm sure!"
"You really mean to accuse mo of this
nbomlnoblo thing?"
"I know no reason to bellovo jpou In
capable of it. And you did meet a man
out there Inst night."
"Then wlij' do you hesitate to inform
Mrs. Gosnold? Isn't It your duty?"
"Cm willing to glvo you tho benefit of
tho doubt, providing j'ou "
"iluvo you consulted Mr. I.yttleton
about this?"
That shot told. Mrs. Standlsh paused
with an open mouth. "Mr. Lyttletonl"
sho exclaimed, recovering. In a tone that
Implied complete Ignorance of the exist
ence of any such person.
"Mr. Lyttleton," Sally repeated. "You
know very well It was he to whom I was
talking out there and I know you know
It."
"Saj I do, for tho sake of the argu
ment; do you imagine Mr. Lyttleton
would sacrifice himself admit that he got
up and left tho house, for whatover rea
son, last night after going to bed to save
you?"
"No." Sally conceded; "I don't expect
anything from either j'ou or nny of j-our
friends. But Mr. Lyttleton will find tho
facta hard to deny. Thoro wna a witness,
jou must know though I'vo no doubt it's
news to you. Ho wouldn't bo likely to
mention thnt to you. In fact, I can see
from your face he didn't. But there
was "
"Who?" tho woman stammered.
"That's for you to find out. Why not
nsk .Mr. Lyttleton? it's no good, Mrs.
Standlsh. I don't uudeistnnd j-our motive,
and I'd rather not gues at It; but I'm not
a child to be scared by a bogy. Show
jour forged letter to Mrs. Gosnold. If you
like or come with me and we'll both
show it to her "
"Am you mad? Do you want to be
exposed?"
"I'm not afraid, Mrs. Standlsh nnd
j-ou arol"
After an Instant the woman a eyes
clouded nnd fell. "I don't know what you
mean," sho faltered.
"I mean that this scene hai gone on
long enough. I'm sick and tired of It
and it isn't getting you nnythlrg, either.
Good night!"
With this Snllj- marched to the door,
turned the knob, and found It locked and
-the key missing.
"The kej', please, Mrs. Standlsh,"
"Not till j-ou tell me" the other be
gan with a flash of reviving spirit.
Sally advanced n finger toward
push-button. "Must I call one of
maids to let me out?"
the
the
Capitulation was signaled with a dls
traded gesture, ".miss .Manwaring,
tell me "
do
"Nothing I'll tell you nothing!
Give
me that kejv"
"Promise j-ou haven't written
"The key!"
It wna surrendered. "Well but that
jewel-case; what have you done with It?"
"I'vo hidden it."
"Where?"
"I'll tell you tomorrow perhaps."
Opening the door, Sally strode out with
her head high and the light of battle In
her eyes.
A hesitant, pleading call followed her,
but she wouldn't hear it. Pursuit and con
tinuation of tha scene, with or without
another specious semblance of apology
and reconciliation such ns had terminat
ed their previous passage at arms, was
out of the question; the corridor was
lively with young women in gayest plum
age, fluttering to and from the dressing
rooms, and Sally was among them even
before fche remembered to reasaume her
mask. ...
At the head of the main staircase aha
paused, searching narrowly th shifting
groupings of the animated scene disclosed
by the wide reception-hall. She was look
ing for Queen Elizabeth's Imperious ruff,
anxious to find and keep In the shadow of
that great lady's sovereign presence: and
she was also looking fo- the leather-banded
sombrero of the cowboy and skull
cap of Harlequin, with a concern keen to
avnlri those sentltmen-
Conslderably to br surprise, still mora
to her disappointment, not even the first
oi these was ta evidence (aa Bally hxd
Vrv wait ,1M ..... i ...ii t i i .
made auro Mrs. Gosnold would be) watt
ing to welcome her guests Just within the
doorway to tho porto-coehere.
None tho less, the lady must be found,
and that without delay; the envelope,
with Its blank Inclosuro half crushed In
Sally's hnnd, was an ever-present re
minder of her duty first to herself, sec
ondly to her employer. If sho had writ
ten nothing, and but for Mrs. Standlsh
would have kept her counsel till the last
minute, tho lather's threat of denuncia
tion had lent tha temper of the girl an
other complexion altogether; as Sally
saw It, she no longer had any cholco
other than to find Mrs. Gosnold as quick
ly as possible and make complete tha
revelation of last night's doings. And
her mind wns fixed to this, with n cast of
angry pertinacity that would prove far
from easy to opposo or even to modify;
whothcr or not tho hostess wished It, she
must suffer herself to bo Informed Imme
diately nnd completely.
Threading a swift wny In nnd out
among tho mtsks clustered upon the
broad stnlrcns6 In groups of twos nnd
threes, laughing, chattering, nnd watch
ing tho restless play of life and color In
the hall, nhe gained the floor nnd then
the letter box, near tho door where sho
had thought to find her employer.
A distrustful scrutiny of tho nearby
masks failed to single out ono of those
sho had marked nnd memorized In tho
boudoir, nnd without detecting nny evert
Interest In her actions, sho slipped her
blnmeless messago Into tho box, then
turned back nnd, steadfast to her pur
pose, mndo her way forward through the
throng to tho vernndn.
After tho glnro of tho hnll tho dusk of
tho veranda was ns grateful ns Its coolth
nnd Bpnclousncss. Beyond tho rnll the
purplo-and-sllver night pressed close nnd
beckoned; Its breath wns sweet. Its pulses
throbbed with tho rhythmic pnsslon of
violins thnt sobbed nnd sung In hiding
somewhere in tho shadows. Up and down
that broad,, smooth flooring gay couples
swayed, ovo to eye and breast to breast,
anachronisms reconciled by the witchery
of tho dance. And when Snllv darted
across to and down tho steps sho found
tho lawns, tho tcrraco nnd tho formal
garden, too, peopled with paired shadows,
murmurous with soft voices and low
pitched laughter.
And she who quartered so swiftly nnd
so diligently that mnzo of lights nnd
shadows found nowhero the ono she
wanted, but rvorywhero tho confirmation
of her Becrot thought thnt thcro was no
plnce horo for her, no room, no welcomo.
On every hand lovo lurked, lingered,
languished, but not for her. Whlchover
wny sho turned sho saw somo lover
scnrchlng for his mistress, but not for
her. Thej- crossed her path and paused
nnd stared, sometimes they spoke ond
looked deep Into her eyes nnd barkened
to the voice with which she answered
them, giving back Jest for Jest and they
muttered excuses and hurried on; she vvn3
not for them.
It wns ns if life nnd fato conspired to
humble her wplrlt and prove her nmbl
tlous of placo bej-ond her worth; to pcr
Bundo her that sho was by birth, and
must resign herself to remain always,
outcast.
Forlorn nnd haunted, she circled back
to tho house, nnd on impulse sought
again tho boudoir door.
Marie answered, but shook her head;
no, sho could not say whero Mrs. Gosnold
might bo found.
Impulse again took her out by tho door
to the drive. Motors wero still arriving
nnd departing, to return nt a designated
hour, but hero, nt whnt might bo termed
tho hack of Gosnold House If thnt man
sion could bo said to hnvo cither back or
front hero on tho landward sldo wns
llttlo light or nolso or movement. And
after an undecided moment on tho Bteps
beneath tho porte-cochoro tho Quakeress
stepped down and out Into the blackness
of tho shadow cast by the western wing,
a deep shadow, dense and wide, from tho
palo wall of the houso to tho edgo of
the moon-whlto lawn.
Sho .novort slowly on through this
pleasant space of semldnrkness, footfalls
muffled by the close-trimmed turf, her
emotions calming n llttlo from tho agita
tion which had been waxing ever more
high and strong in her with each succes
sive crisis of the night. Here the hreeze
was warm and blnnd, tho muslo nnd the
laughter a remote rumor, stars glimmered
in a dome of lapis lazuli; peaco was to
ho distilled of such things by the con
templative mind, peace and a sweet, sad
sense of the beuutj- and pain of life. No
placo moro fit than this could one wish
wherein to shelter and nurse bruised
illusions.
Iiisenstblj' sho drew near the corner ot
the building, in abstraction so deep and
jrtlll that she was nlmost upon them when
she appreciated tho fact that people wero
talking Just beyond that high, white
shoulder of stone, nnd was struck by' tho
personal significance of a phrase that
still echoed In cars which It had nt Mist
found heedless: " Quaker cos
tume, gray nnd white, with a cloak "
It never occurred to the girl to stop
and eavesdrop; but between that Instant
of re-awakened consclousnes.1 nnd the
moment when she came nround the cor
ner, three voices sealed an understand-Ins-
"You've simply got to make her listen
to reason "
'Oh, leave that to my well-known art!"
"She'll see a great light beforo 1 o'clock
or I'm "
Silence fell like a thunderclap as the
Quaker Girl confronted Harlequin, Colum
bine and Sir Francis Drake.
She said coolly; "You were speaking
of me, I bellevo?"
Drake stepped back, swore In his false
beard, nnd disappeared round the corner
in a twinkling.
Columbine snapped like the shrew she
maskid: "You little sneak!"
And Harlequin capped that with nn
easy laugh: "Oh, do keep your temper,
Adele. You've less tact than any woman
that ever breathed, I verily believe. Cut
along now; I'll square matters for you
with Miss Monwarlng If It's possible."
With a stifled exclamation Columbine
caught her cloak round her and followed
Drake.
The accent of the comlo was not lost
upon the girl. She could not but laugh a
little at Harlequin's, undisguised discom
fiture. "So j-ou're nominated for the office of
peacemaker, Mr. Savage!"
"I'm afraid so." He shuffled, nervously
slapping his well-turned calves with Har
lequin's lath-sword. "I swear," he com
plained. "I do believe Adele Is crazier
than most women most of the time. She's
just been telling me what a fool she
mada of herself with you. I'm awfully
glad you turned up when you did "
"I noticed that, believe me!"
"Oh, I mean It, Ever since dinner I've
been looking for an opportunity to ex.
plain things to you, but until Adele told
me your costume Just now "
"Well?" Sally inquired in a patient
tone as he broke off,
"We can't talk here. It's no good place
as you've, Just proved. Besides. I've got
an appointment wun another lady." He
grinned gracelcssly. "No. not what you
think not .philandering but in connec
tion with this soma business. I'vo got to
butter thick with dlplomaoy an awful Jot
ot mistaken apprehensions beforo I can
set Don and Adele right, after that con
founded foolishness of theirs last Highl
and this rotten robbery coming on top of
It. to make things look black! It's a
frightful, awful mlx-up, really, but as
Innocent as daylight, it you only under
stand it- Look here, won t you give me
a show to explain?"
CONTINUED MONDAY.

Th
"Love your enemies; do good to them that hate you;
bless them that curse you; pray for them that despite
fully use you, "quoted Headmaster Lyttleton, of Eton,
preaching in St. Paul's Cathedral. The result: a
threatened world-wide argument as to the ethics of
the situation.
At a time when millions of men have perished on European battlefields
and millions of homes are destitute and fatherless, the earnest admonition of the
noted English clergyman started a controversy that has spread to this country.
America's most prominent churchmen give you their points of view in
tomorrow's Public Ledger. Each is earnest; each argues logically each has the
welfare of the world and mankind at heart.
Some of those who have written short sermons, expressing their personal
opinions on this subject, are:
