Behind the drawn blinds Jarfaman
was lying, restless, waiting for the
morning te be far enough advanced for
blm te rise and go forth te de battle
with Thced,' and then .40 see Kadla.

turn, yesterday, te this flat where every
echo listened for Nndla's voice.
Claudine's car bad brought him here
with a smooth speed that had driven
Claudine Immediately from his mind.
The servant Lady Deucester had prom prem
ised had ODened the deer te him and
served him a simple lunch. It bad
given him strength and a renewed con
fidence In bis. powers, but he had
judged it ndvisable te put off his call
en Nadla till nut day. He must net
alarm her by symptoms of fatigue or
weakness. He had gene Instead te the
room that Nadla had made his study
and, sunk deep in a leather chair, he
had let himself drift into idlu day
dreams.
The rest of the day had passed
quickly, quccily, .with memories and
nepes. Ann new here be lay, waiting,
watching for the new day te begin.
Jarreman could bear It no longer
He rose and dressed and paced bis
study until breakfast was ready.
He bad barely finished It before the
pell rang, and a visitor was shown
into the study.
.. "Lady Deucester, sir," announced
the maid. Jarreman strode into the
room wnere nis visitor waited.
Lady Deucester looked haggard, yet
Indomitable. She were a severe cletu
dress that added te her height, and her
elaborate make-up was softened by the
beauty of her furs.
"L came te step you from going te
see Theed this morning," she said
without preliminary. "I have asked
him te call at Deucester Heuse after
lunch, and I want you te tackle him
then, if you. will, in my presence."
"Yeu believe Theed will win and
you Intend te see him de It," Jarreman
remarked with a penetration that did
net disturb Lady Deucester in the
least. '
Lady Deucester Sends for Her Sen
"I knew you will win. and I in
tend te show you hew," she corrected
blm crisply.
Jarreman smiled his twisted smile
nud let the statement puss unchal
lenged. "Then this morning I shall call en
Nadla." be said. "It would certainly
have been better te wait till I'd set.
tied Theed before discussing anything
with her, but "
"Through my postponing the dia
logue, us you call It, it has been thrust
upon me with the added penalty of hav
ing te confess the Camden complica
tions te my son," she said. "Isn't
that bad enough?"
"Oh, no. returned Jarreman,
equably. "Net nearly bad enough."
Lady Deucester grimaced uguln, but
her soie rejoinder was te usk Jarreman
te lunch at Deucester Heuse at 1
o'clock. He bowed his acceptance, and
she left him te his thoughts.
"Se much better that I beg you te
postpone seeing her until you've settled
Theed." cut in Lady Deucester.
"Wait!" as he frowned. "This came
by the first pest."
She banded him Nadia's forlorn little
note. Jarreman read it aloud.
"Wilfred has discovered that I am
net Mr. .Tarreman's daughter. He
thinks I did net tell him because I
wanted te keep the money and the
house. I cannot explain why I did
net clve everything at enen te Nell.
Only you can de that. Nadia.
"P. S. Wilfred has gencuway."
"This was written yesterday." said
Jarreman, returning the note. "And
let me sec it was the day before yes
terday en which you nnd I bad our
illuminating chat, wasn't it "
"Oh, I knew what you're driving
at," retorted Lady Deucester energet
ically. "Yeu think I ought te have
trotted off te Nadla yesterday, early.
and said te her in effect; 'My dear
child, nil is saved! Mr. Jarreman is
buck nnd he's being most amiable about
ever) thing; he's going te reassign the
money te you (wlien I've get It beck
from Theed for blm,) nnd he's going
te forget all about that old Camden
business, and link up with bis wife
again ' "
A Conference at Deucester Heuse
"I beg your pnrden!"
" ' and provide suitably for Nell,
and net the fairy godfather te any one
who seems te expect it!' " Lady
Deucester swept en unbeedlug. "And
Nadla would have answered: 'Ob, hew
lovely, new I can tell Wilfred every
thing, and he enn threw tin his career
and go bankrupt trying te pay back all
Mr. Jni-remuu lias given me, nnd refuse
te accept another penny nnd I can up up
eold him uml we qin ntui ve en thrcu

Lady Deucester paused for brenth.
"And seu liostlieneil this interesting
dialogue bccaiibe seu knew thut when
you have said your say and Nadla has
saia ners, you will nnve te assure ber
that thcre is no need for her te starve

tation she rose uud moved, with a tiny
grimace, te the deer,
"Mis. Straueck is net at home, my
lady."
Lady Deucester stared nt Nudla's
butler. .
"Mrs. Strannck went out before
breakfast, my lady, and has net yet re
turned. And Mr. Stranuk is at his
club. He has just telephoned from there
about Ills letters." Lady Deucester
gathered hernclf together.
"Ah, it's Mr. Jarreuian's sudden re
turn from the Continent that has ciuihcd
such an upheaval," she said with a
crisp ease that dioe the gloom from
Dene's brew. "He nrrlvcd yesterday.
Most unexpected. Let me nee. I
should like te telephone te Mr. Htra
nuck." Dene Installed ber at the instrument
and withdrew. Ijidy Deucester, wult
ing for her number, pulled rcstlef&ly At
her furs. Nadla had gene out befire
breakfast, nnd was uet yet buck. Wil.
fred was at bis club. Fer the first time
Lady Deucester wondered whether the
humiliating confession she was prepared
te mnka would effectively heal the breach
between these inconveniently high prin
clpled children.
