Yeu one of the struggle. Your experience Is wider rar tnan mine; but in tnis case I think I have seen .the truth mere clearly than you 'have. That man Harkness loves Audrey." Constance .reused herself as though from a reverie. t "I can imagine the mejdlng of Harkness' character," continued Aunt Ella quietly. "A boy of strong im pulses, motherless, left te the-care of a hard father who had no time te spare from his business. In his youth the lud would be given money, plenty of money, te ae away and amuse him self, as long as he did net encroach en ins tamer's time, wnen ne was 01a enough te be considered . suitable te assist Ills father,, the habit of drifting, of wild spending, had .ingrained itself se deeply that it could net, be effaced without something' stronger being brought te bear than a mere order from a father, whe'after all. had done little te create n bend of affection between himself and his son. Harkness, as you knew him, is the product of all this. Am I right, Constance?" , "Yeu may be," admitted. Constance diffidently. She was realising that In her quiet, simple way Aunt Ella had nrebed deener into the problem than she was capable of doing herself. "I am," asserted Aunt Ella. "Yeu knew, Constance, you., worldly-wise people are often wrong, Yeu de net step te think. Yeu Judge people superficially. Yeu de net always re member there is a world of thought which governs the world of action in which you live. I think you should go te Harkness and ask him te tell you the truth, and if the truth is that he loves Audrey, as I am certain he loves her, then you should bring them together." "" . A "Impossible!" protested Constance. "The man would ruin her." Aunt Ella smiled wntly. "Instead, she would save him," she said. "Hns that never occurred te you, Constance?" Constance shrugged her shoulders. ."Yeu de net knew Harkness as I knew him," .she muttered. "I tell you he is n devil nothing less. Yeu cannot turn him or control him. He Just gees straight en. The things that man has done, and laughed as he has done them! He ruined young Kll gnne. He has all but ruined Carteret. Yeu don't knew whnt y6u soy, Ella." "All right." Aunt iaims xace were a leek of resignation. "But I would ask you te remember, Cennie, that Audrey and Harkness love each ether BS, I believe, a man ana woman cau intra hut ones In all their lives. And you cannot kill such love as that. It never dies, smemer 11 auu tucive u. you will." a A ...... ,. She turned toward the house, but Constance put out her hand and seised ber arm. . ' "Ella!" Censtance'a manner was hesitating. "There Is something else I want te talk te you about." "Yes." "It is Connlngten ; what he said te me last night.' ' 3 M Aunt Ella waited In silence. "He wants Audrey," Constance gasped the information. "He demands her. e says 11 win 00 ircn And I cannot give her up. I cannot! Yeu knew I cannot!

At present I hardly knew what 1 am doing. I can not make n decision In my present state of mind. Audrey must go away. Aunt Ella's eyebrows lifted slightly. "Analn?" "Yes." Constance nodded feverishly. "Yeu could take her te Bournemouth or rrnmnnv nr somewhere like that, ter a HUle while. It would serve two purposes; help her te forget Harkness and prevent any chance of her bearing of the Eres for the time being. Will ,0"Idwlll de anything,", said Aunt Ella.
