I-or 'another, admiration of her meant

nntltheMs she Is. Yet I believe Mrs.

niRlit. She offers them just enough ex

"Kxcitement!" echoed Nadla, rest
Vly. "Dear Lady Deucester, I don't
mean te he rude, but renlly, people who
euro for each ether don't have te
full back en excltcincnt nowadays te
keen each ether interested. Heme life
Isn t ob dull as it used te be ; there's
companionship- "
"I have spent n let of money in my
lime," interrupted Lady Deucester.
"and I have every intention of spend
ing n let mere. And most of it, my
dear, hat gene in being a companion
te my husband. I run sec you don't
quite believe me. Yeu think I've
bought recklessly, you think you can
de It mere chenply. Well, I don't think
you can. Mny I tell you why?"
Nadla made a little movement of pro pre
test, but Lndy Deucester appeared net
te notice it. i
"Yeu understand Wilfred thoroughly,
dear child. Yeu have been n worker
eurseif, and you icspend te the work
forces ln him and respect them. Prob
ably you hope te work with him. net
ill the old way, hut en a hundred new
points, any one of which will mnke
typing his reports and letters seem
mere drudgery. And yet, if you per
sist ln tcnrlng your wuy out into the
open, as you nave put it, you will find
the avenues of real co-operation 'closed
t you, and only the drudgeries will In
left. "My dear, have you pictured te your
self exactly what your lives would be
without all the hopes und plans you
novo built upon money? Oh, I knew ii
sounds crude, but after nil, you knew
what poverty is. Yeu haven't nlwnys
thought in terms of cars and ceuntrv
houses. Loek nt this place leek nt
yourself and admit that it's money
that has made them possible."
Meney Is Necessary
In spite of herself Nadla looked. The
room in which they sat was beautiful
with the mellow beauty of carved oak
and lustrous velvets and leather stamped
with geld. Opposite her n Jeng Vene
tian mirror gleamed and she saw her
self sitting gracefully, ensily, ln a won wen
derful old chair that six months age
would have atrucsjier dumb with nd nd
miratien. Her eyes followed the lines
of her summer frock, ft miracle of cestlv
simplicity. She drew n deep breath anil
felt her silken garments caress her ns
if all her life she had worn nothing of
a coarser texture.
"When I married." Lndy Deucester
went en steadily, "I was Immensely
ambitious for my husband. He was
clever ; I, tee, had brains, and It seemed
te me that together we could carve a
splendjd destiny out of life. I won't
describe the first yearn te you the bit
ter disillusionment of them. My hus
band was all I had thought and mere ;
I was ready te help hlra till I dropped ;
but we simply never had a chance. 't
were wretchedly peer, Nadia. The
Deucesters hed always been peer ; there
was no money in the family ; and I saw
that without it we could de nothing."
An unwilling interest had crept into
Nadia's eyes.
"But somehow you get your chance,"
she said.
"Only because somehow never mind
hew we get money."
There was a breeding watchfulncs in
the low spoken words. Nadla listened
mere closely.
"It is of these first lcim years that
I am thinking. Yeu say that you In
tend te rcnay every nennv that Mr.
Jarreman has given you. De you real- I
ir.e what that will mean? Mellcntrave I
and I were peer Wilfred, if he is te
mnke full restitution en your behalf,
will be bankrupt. Mellentrave and I
practiced n thousand dreary little econ
omies in order te reach our goal you
two will economize uselessly, for the
eal will hnve vanished. Ne member of
Parliament may be a bankrupt. Yeu
knew that, surely? I hme no doubt
that Wilfred would work his wny back
te solvency, but his courage would have
gene. The struggle te provide n small
mnrgln beyond the bare necessities
would absorb him; in a sense I think
it would break him."
Nadia stumbled te her feet, and mak
ing her wny te the long window, steed
gazing out. Lndy Deuccster's voice
pursued her remorselessly.
"Wilfred Is as clever as his father,
in some ways cleverer; you arc mere
beautiful than I was ln my youth, and
your generation is kinder te you than
mine was te me, for It gives you a free
dom, a vividness, as it were, that Is In
Itself an enormous weapon. I agree
with nil my heart that things have
chnnged since my day, and every time I
invest in a new complexion I de It ln
homage te the new age. I ngrce that
nowadays people can struggle back te
prosperity from the bottom of the lad
der. I ngree that often the really bril
liant man Is discovered nnd pitchferked
out of obscurity ilnte the full glare of
public recognition. Hut all this Is net
what you nnd Wilfred planned all this
Is net companionship."
Nadla curved a bare arm against the
window frame and bent her head against
it.
Lady Deucester rose. She made no
movement te approach, but n force that
was nkln te cruelty leaped from her
mind te that of the girl who listened.
"These strokes of fortune, coming te
the man alone, brine no companion
ship. They mny take the woman's
breath away, but they leave her lonely.
If Wilfred, plunged Inte bankruptcy ns
he must be, were helped te free him
self, helped, I menu, through the in
fluence and the money of ether people,
he might still make geed, lint it would
net have been threuch you ; it weulil
have been In spite of you."
"But I nin net building our happi
ness mi WllfredV EiHtitmle te me! I
admit I slmll spoil everything for a bit. ,
I nuiiituiii tliiil. I cmiimt de other
wise. If Wilfred afterward is helped te
make geed, us you call It. by some
third person, that won't destroy our
levt for cadi ether. It lie Ims te jse
without second chance anil lie just
one of it crowd, that won't desuey lee,
cither."
A Confession te Nadii
I.udy Deucester it ruck ngnln.
"Leve! Wits I iittiickiug love? I i
knew you love each ether. Yeu mny
love each ether te the last breath of
miffciins and beyond It. Yeu may die
in u garret ruid Imve retained Wilfred's
