The rich color rushed te the girl's
fcce. Hhe wanted te tease him hack,
te be gay and invincible, but the events
lltbe.hut twenty-four hours had made
a;dcei lmpresMbn upon her, and she
fjjnd that her eyes wcre full of tears.
Before she could hide them Stranack,
leaning forward, had seen her distress,

"Jly dearest Heart," lie bow, quietly,
"there's nothing te he sad ((bout, it

"But It can It debs," said Nudie,
wretchedly. "I tried te explain in my

The taxi had Mewed down before the

te open the deer. He looked deep Inte

"Yeu Bay se new," began Nadla des
perately, "but "
"Will you marry me, Nadla?"
. "Ne."
"Yeu tlen't love me?"
"Yeu knew eh, you knew I de."
"Then," said Strannek, "I shnll
simply have te begin te win you all
ever again. In the end I'll mnke you,
you funny, determined, little thing.
Walt till the elcctlen'B ever and my
time is mere my own, I sny, If I don't

de rare for me, you'll be glad that
they're weakened. Se you hope I won't
get in. Se you're a traitor te the great
cause of me."
"Oh, don't!"
The tears wcre perilously near Ra Ra
deo's cyes( again. She took up her
gloves and bag, nnd rose.
"I must go," she suld hurriedly.
"I have te pack. I nni going te llve
with my father from tomorrow. He's
he rich, Wilfred. Enormously
wealthy. Isn't that strnnge?"
They left the tearoom, nnd Stranuck
put her Inte a taxi, She Insisted en
going alone.
"Geed-by," she said, offering her
hand. It was difficult te meet Htrnn-
Lnck's gaze, allve with laughter, and
yet tender. She wished he would take
his dismissal as final, but somehow she
wen thrilled and comforted that he
would net give her up.
Stranack took her hand "and held it
a minute.
"Au revelr," he snld. "I shall call
en your father In a day or two, and tell
him my views about you, you "
Nadla tere her hand away and the
taxi bore her off.
The small and perfect drawing room
or (jiauuine urnyne's Heuse Had emp
tied of all Its visitors but one. The
gaming rooms downstairs wcre empty
tonight. Claudlne had given one of
her famous little dinners, and new,
marvelous In a gown of peacock gn.uze,
was lounging en a divan. Opposite
her Thced. glossy, oozing self-satisfaction,
was bubbling cheerfully while two
stulwart bcrvants removed the bridge
tables.
Presently the deer shut behind them,
nnd Claudlne cut into the stream of
ponderous inanities.
"I want te talk te you," she began,
"about that stunt of yours that you
put up the ether night."
Thecd settled hhiitelf mere comfort
ably in his ehalr. His quick car noted
something like nervousness in the rich
voice. "She wants te back out," he

"I've had it en my mind a geed bit,"
continued Claudlne. She took a ciga
rette from n wonderfully carved box,
lit it, and threw It uwny again. "And
I've come te the conclusion I don't like
it. I'm sorry te let you down, but
don't like it."
"Your first comment en It was that
It sounded geed," Thecd pointed out
emlnbly.
"I knew. Se it doe, ns n stunt.
Hut there Yi an aspect of It that Is rather
hard te swallow."
She rose nnd began te pnee the room,
every supple line of her swinging in
perfect harmony, her gown shining like
some exotic plumage.
Thced waited. Ills eyes new the mer
est slits in his face.
"I'm as thorough a creek ns you,"
she went en, "but there have ahus
been limits. Id stand In with you en
thl, If my daughter were net involved.
I've done the dirty en my own child
once, and I'm net going te de it ugain.
In fact, I give ou fair warning thut
I'm zelnc te de till in m.v neucr te nut
her In her rightful place."
Thecd was tee clever u man te lese
his temper.
"I confess I'm touched," he mur
mured. "Touched te .the heart. Hew
snered Is this mother Instinct ! fat us
peer Inte the future together. I see a
peer, neglected, docile little girl the
docility is important ready te full In
the arms of n mother mere sinned
against than sinning, and ask the said
mother's advice In the spending of her
fortune."
"Yeu cold-blooded brute:" hissed
Claudlne. She hnd wheeled en him,
panting, nhlaze with rage.
"All right." said Thced imperturb
ably. "We'll put this motherhood stuff
te the test. Yeu wcre quite right the
ether night. I knew where your daugh
ter is. I'll take you te ncr new if you
have the nerve."
"What?" cried Claudlne, taken
aback. "Is she Is she in Londen? Is
she near at hand?"
"She has been within ten minutes'
walk of this house for some five years,"
answered Thecd.
Thced was scoring heavily. Clnudine
was wholly unnble te conceal her agi
tation. Thced watched her.
"I thought you wouldn't have the
nerve te face It," he sneered.
"Idiot! It's past midnight. She'll be
In bed."
"Oh, no, Bhe won't!" replied Theed
with a low chuckle.
"Take me," gasped Claudlne.
She sped from the room. Thecd went
Inte the hall, where, n minute luter,
she appeared in n dark clenk which cov
ered her from threat te ankles. With
nn Imperious gesture she drew him nwny
from tlie front uoer, beiere wiueii lus
car was waiting.
"This way."
Mether and Daughter
A few yards uwny a high-powered
car waited, tne driver passive in nis
seat.
"Tell him where: te go," bald Claud-
inn curtly.
"Step at tlie corner of tne uui neni
read." Thecd directed the man. He
stepped into the car, in which Clnudine
luul already seated ncrseit, auu me car
darted forward.
Thced was no mean student of liu
man nature. He Knew that the woman
sitting motionless during the sliurt drlve
was preparing herself for a shock
trying te whip up the maternal Instinct
which hnd been dead these twenty.yeurB.
He grinned te himself. ,
The cu'r slewed und stepped.
"Walt here," he told the chauffeur.
Then he helped Claudlne te alight. "We
shall net be away long."
"It's a short walk and the pavements
are quite dry," he said, as he led her
down n narrow bide street, Anether
turn and two policemen confronted
them, eyeing them suspiciously, and
then :
"Iest your way, sir?" asked ene of
them.
"Ne thanks," replied Thced, and
they passed en,
"Here we are."
