5jhf ok ahe could de weuH ie a
distasteful drudgery, and yet h hated
the thought of owing anything te thH

Farmer thought he read indecision
In h?f 8inc? and h Mid eteln

Hhe bna built much en what she Is
aure you can de."
"Yea, I knew," Elisabeth said, but

that Influenced her ae much aa the mem
ory of what Roysten had aald only
last night. "You've get te be bappyj

all ahe cared for.
She turned round . and looked at
Farmer; bis handsome face waa flushed

Nell Farmer took her hand and raised

Hut bla humility left Elisabeth un

..j ".wfk. sh? truilled against
the despair in her heart. She clung te
the belief that something would hap
pen te put things right, though what
could happen ahe did net knew.
Hhe wrote a dexen letters te Rey

ei" . her devoted friend.
. H,n "new that he mut hnve spoken
te Mme. Senevtls about her, for all at
once th rigorous treatment te which
me renchweman had subjected her
relaxed; she was allowed out alone
wnencvcr Ktie lined, and ahe was net
worked se hard.
. $n' .rfew'y he week dragged te a
fortnight, the fortnight te three
weeks and all hope left Elizabeth's
heart.
She wrote te Netta, and a short,
hurried answer came: "I am very
busy, aa we nre leaving Londen next
week. My feet ia ever ae much bet
ter. Excuse a ahert note; I will write
again when we are settled down and
tell yn all about It."
But no further letter came, and
once again Ellxabcth was conscious of
the forlorn feeling that she wns. In
deed, cut out of both Nettn's life and
Ileystnn a for ever.
Perhaps It was only natural that in
tb circumstances he should turn te
Nell Farmer.
He was se often at the house and
se attentive; he seemed te gue lier
wishes beforehand, and yet he never
presumed en her balf-hearted forgive
ness or made her regret It.
Unconsciously she had begun te call
lilm by his Christian name; uncon
sciously she was gradually adopting
the Rehemlnn ways of mndame's set.
The Irregularity of the life no longer
annoyed her, pcrhnps because she had
begun te realize that it la always
easier te let oneself go with the tide.
Preparation for her debut wero
proceeding apace; inailnme talked et
nothing else.
A certain duchess with a penchant
for "discovering" people waa giving
an entertainment at her heue for
Myne convenient charity, and Eliza
belli was te appear.
"Madame thinks It will be better
than a puWIe appearance," Farmer
told Elizabeth. Apparently the
duchess In question was an adept at
advertising, nnd F.llxabetli did net
knew whether te be amused or an
noyed at the subtle "booming" which
was nlready prepared for her.
Pat'a Wife Again Enters Elizabeth's
Life
"Dees anybody ever get n In Lon Len Lon
eon berause of their own ability?" she
atked Fermer with unconscious cyni
cism, lie laughed and ndmltted that
very little wns done newndnys with
out ndvcrtlxement.
"If a new actress suddenly flashes
before the public." he a!d, "it's gen
erally only after months of careful
thmiEht nnd preparation. If lier press
agents are xoed enough nnd beat the
drum loudly eiinugn, sue a aitneHi
morally certain te nnd herself a suc
cess." Elizabeth sighed.
"I don't like te feel that I may only
be c auccesa because of things like
that." she said.
Ills even warmed as they looked at
her. "In your case you are bound te
be n success, even if there were no
pres agents In the world," he said.
Elizabeth Ilkrd te hear that; ma
dame was always reluctant In her
praise, and Elizabeth often felt dis
couraged. ' ,,
"I may net be n suceecs at all, she
t.ald. as she had once said te Put Roy Roy
seon. "Yeu may never get jour money

"That la the least of my concerns,
he anwered quietly.

relevant question :

She lind never seen Delly herself
since thnt cln in the restaurant.

The color rose slowly te the girl s
fae. "I will come down," she said.
She tidied her hair and changed hei
freek. She v.nt conscious of a strange
excitement; perhaps she would hear
news of Uojsteu. Her heart bent fast
as she went down te the calen. where
Enid Hanger wns posing In front of one
of the long mirrors.
She turned as Elizabeth entered.
"He I've run yen te earth at last!
she said.
Elirnbeth did net knew whnl te ny.
"Yeu don't leek very pleased le see
me." Roysten'a wife went en hufllly.

heth said. ,
It was net the truth; she was a lit
tle nfrnl I of Enid, and' realized that
III some manner she had changed since
(hey last met.
She looked somehow coarser, nnd
less geed looking; she wns very much
painted, nnd she had changed the color
of lier hair.
"Plene sit down," Elizabeth said
nervmii-ly.
I'.iild leek the most comfortable chair
she could lind.
