PART I.
When Mr. Tyndall Passay at least re
turned to England, most of the people
who had once expected remarkaije
things of him seemed unite to have
forgotten that there had ever been such
a youiiK man. He wont about London
fcir a couple of days, calling here and
there at a house, only to tlnd former
acquaintances out of town or living
elsewhere, and looking into clubs where
hall porters did not recognize the name
he pronounced.
Even abroad, his habit had been to
avoid large cities; this vast indifferent
London became In those two days a
horror to his nerves. Against the de
pressing background of Its crowded
loneliness unpleasant visions began to
dellne themselves. He had In his pocket
It little account book containing proofs
' that It was very nearly time for him
to be thinking of earning some mon
ey; and its columns of delicately In
scribed figures, which at the outset
had barely Interested him, started up
an evil trick of cumins Into the fore
ground of his thoughts and displaying
themselves there with some devilish
effect of phosphorescence.
At luncheon time on the third day
It dawned upon him that the gloom of
his mind had broken the heart of his
nppetite. He looked at the bill of fare
handed him by the stranger who wore
the livery of the Applied Arts club,
and after a minute's labored scrutiny
lifted his head and glanced about him.
A score of members at other tables
were eating undoubtedly eating as If
they enjoyed themselves. The spectacle
surprised him because he verilled the
Impression by nnother look at the card
the viands set forth were nothing
less than abhorrent; their very names
revolted his senses. He tried to think
of something not enumerated, some
favorite dish which might be prepared
to his order; but all food revealed It
self to his interrogation as an offense.
A little shiver of vague alarm caused
him to push back his chair and half
rise to his feet.
"I think" he began. Intent upon Jus
tifying himself to the waiter, and then
stopped. A newcomer had moved to
ward the table, wih the light of rec
ognition on his face and the beginnings
of a gesture W'hlch might mean a gret
ing. Passy Intuitively completed his
rising, and turned the words on his
lips without a hitch to a new use.
"I thing this Is my old friend, Lau
rence Mole," he said, with a strenuous
geniality. They shook hands warmly,
and Passy, who hated having his hand
Bqueesed, for the once rather liked
the effect of a powerful and energetic
grasp. Kven as he twisted his cramped
lingers about to get the blood back In
to them, he smiled gratefully Into
Mole's face: "My dear fellow, I can't
tell you" he started, and then let an
other smile, still more beaming, finish
his sentence for him, as the other
obeyed his mute .invitation, and took
the opposite chair.
Hcally, it was amazing to think how
glad he was to see Mole. The recol
lection that they had never been more
than smoking-room acquaintances rose
In his mind; he even recalled that he
had rather shunned Mole as a common
place and uninspired creature, In the
old days but none the less he wel
comed him now as a brother. It re
quired an effort to keep utter silliness
out of the grin with which he continued
to regard Mole's broad shoulders, and
buoyant If uhillumlncd countenance. It
came to him that he had heard much
of the money Mole got for his land
scapes. His solvency was notorious
among fellow-artists, along with his
supreme willingness to have It Imposed
upon. To look at him, he was more
the strong stockbroker than the paint
er. His linen, his cheerful chuckle,
the fine, hard surface of his carefully
shaven cheek and chin, were badges of
a Philistine prosperity. It was not to
be forgotten, too, that Mole never talk
ed shop; one might meet him for years,
and not gather that he knew the dif
ference between cadmium and tur
pentine. Indeed his great point was
that lie didn't talk at all. He listened
superbly, though, with an unapproach
able patience and show of interest; and
Passy felt suddenly that what he had
wanted most of all was a listener.
The tale spread for Mole's unflag
ging ears was a long and diffuse one.
He ate as he listened, with a robust,
matter-of-course zest which greatly
strengthened Passv's confidence. A
brain so nourished and buttressed with
extra helpings und duplicated portions
must of necessity be serenely stead
fast and sensible; the Ideal brain for
the advisor to an unemployed gentle
man with nerves. Passy scarcely noted
that he himself was now able to eat
as well, and to drink freely of the old
brown ale In cobwebbed bottles which
Mole prescribed. He Bet forth his case
with eagerness, enforcing Its salient
points with a veined and flexible thin
forefinger on the cloth.
Summarized, Passy's was the narra
tive of large self-satisfaction. Insid
iously undermined and at last brought
down in ruins by the burrowing of a
Kioup of ambitions at cross-purposes
with one another. There had been at
the outset a notable talent he thought
of it jw as a fatal talent for appre
ciation. His passion for music an
swered across the deeps to his awed
reverence for architecture. His Intui
tive feeling for the right thing In paint
ing looked askance at his delicate per
ception of sculpture's inmost signifi
cance. He commanded the languages
of armor, of block-printing, of tapes
tries and tooled bindings and carved
oak; but when they spoke to him all
at once the effect was confusion. The
severe and complicated charms of her
aldry beckoned him one way; the looser
blandishments of medieval pottery ap
pealed from another quarter. The Jap
nnese thing had laid a lighter hand upon
him than might have been predicted,
but stained glass of the Burgundlan
period bore ciown heavily, and the
earlier schools of miniature painting
cried aloud to him. Treading roughly
on the heels of these antique lures, and
often elbowing them aside, for that
matter, and thrusting Itself to the fore,
came that grossly up-to-date affair,
amateur photography. Passy had mo
ments of deep shame In its company
and yet and yet might It not prove
after all the true friend In need? The
others were admittedly finite; their
fascination had been all ascertained
and ticketed; the completed set of
their tricks was to be found In cata
logues. But who could tell what novel
conquests the bromides and nitrates
might not be reserving for the real
Prince Charming among connoisseurs?
"The upshot of It Is, then," said Mole,
at last, "that between them all you
don't know which to pick."
"Yes, that seems to be it," Pussy ad
. mltted. They were In the members'
smoking room now, and regarded each
other from the depths of big easy chairs
tiefore the fire, what time they did not
tare torpidly through their cigar haze
at the coals and vacancy. "Yes, that Is
precisely it. I must find a profession
among them somewhere. It need not
be extremely lucrative; I look to it for
supplementary earnings, not for my
whole Income. It must be something
that n gentleman can do; it should pre
ferably be connected with the arts."
Mole noded reflectively. He spoke
lowly, after a silence. "What you
want, first of all, Is a studio."
Passy lifted his head. The dogmatism
of tone and remary impressed him, but

he had misgivings. "Of course that
would come In later," he assented;
"but it Is really the leading necessity?
Ought I not first to settle what I am
going to do in my studio, before I get
it?"
"Not In the least. No mistake can be
more grevlous than to hesitate and
fiddle about In matters of this nature.
It Is plain enough that Indecision mars
your character. You must do battle
with it her and now if it is not to
wreck your career. Say to yourself
that you will immediately take a stu
dio and upon the word go out and se
cure one. When once you are lodged in
It, when once the fact of possessing It
has entered into your being, then every
thing else will be comparatively simple.
It really doesn't matter so much what
you do In your studio, so far as that
goes; the essential thing is to have
one."
"It Is a bold process," mused Passy.
"It would not have occurred to me, but
I think 1 grasp your thought. You
fuel that the studio, so to speake, will
make the selection for me; that when I
have made a fitting home for the bride,
as it were, then the one who should be
chosen will be drawn toward it. and I
shall know her, and go out to meet
her." i
"Or words to that effect," Mole as
sented. "In short, once you have a stu
dio, you will know how to live up to It.
Without a studio well, you behold
youself anxious, frightened, discon
solate, pitching fruitlessly about like
a cork In a millrace."
"Yes; I profess myself convinced,"
said Passy. "And, since you spoke of
the want of Indecision, I will pile deeds
upon pursuatlon. Come with me now!
I will not sleep until I have scoured the
painters' quarters for a studio."
"Oh, It's only twenty minutes walk,"
remarked Mole, lighting a second cigar.
"Have another liquer of brandy? iou
will be overpowered with delight at the
place. If it had heem planted and built
for you by Provld'ce It could not
more ideally fit your wan.ts. It will
flood you with suggestions and Inspira
tions. It will take charge of Destiny
In your name."
Passy lifted his little glnss toward
his friend. "Your enthusiasm is conta
gious!" he cried. "How wonderfully
you have put heart In me! Doubts? I
laugh In their face! Uncertainties? I
set my foot on them! Come, let us get
out! I am consumed with engerness to
begin. You spoke as It you had a place
In mind but there must be the condl
lon that I enter at once."
"That Is the beauty of It all." replied
Mole. "I am leaving Kngland, c-rtaln-ly
for months, perhaps for years. I
start for Malaga this very evening.
There Is no reason why, If you will It,
you should not sleep in your studio to
night." "Perhaps I do not completely follow
you," said Tossy, doublfuily. "The ex
act connection between"
"Oh, to be sure, I hadn't mentioned
It," broke In Mole, as he got to his feet.
"It Is my studio that you are to take oft
my hands."
Darkness gathered In early upon the
succeeding day prematurely even for
November In London. Passy had never
crowded much labor Into a single day,
and when at last the light faded awny
In the broad sliding sashes high over
head, he forebore to use the gas, and
called his work done In a novel spirit
of content.
A boisterous fire of wood crackled
and roared on the Irons under the huge
open fireplace and carved chimney
front, which monopolized most of one
side of his studio. The chimney was a
bad new Imitation of something that
had never been worth copying, and its
days were already numbered in Pnssy's
mind, but for the moment he could al
most forgive It, so invigorating and fine
was the snapping blaze below. He
drew up a big lounging chair, placed be
side it a small table, with glasses and a
bottle of sloe gin the one native bev
erage In Kngland which caught his
present whim lit a cigarette, and sat
down to receive self-congratulations by
his oa hearthslde, at his own pleased
leisure.
The studio was really a wonderful af
fair. From the point of view of the
rising wind outside It was an exposed
glass "structure, Himsily founded, and
placed In an open angle nearest the
bridge, where the full sweep of the river

blasts could enfold and grind and rat
tle it about to the heart's content. As
the new owner saw and felt It from the
Inside, this very fact of its being the
plaything of blasts lent a stimulating
air of adventurous isolation to the
place. The engirdling wind which
shook It at the shutters, and tried the
door; which whistled across the sky
lights up above, and dragged the flames
upward from the hearth with the bel
lowing suction of a simoon, created for
him a kind of Island on which to live
secure from observation and Intrusion.
He sipped at his glass, and smiled af
fectionately upon tho blazing logs, and
stretched out his slippered feet toward
them.
Presently he thought he would dress
and drive to the club for dinner. The
bedraggled file of incapable four
wheelers,' which usually vegetated on
the incline leading to the bridge out
side had evidently been scattered by
the tempest, but Charles would call a
cab. Or no; upon reflection Charles
had taken a holiday to view the Lord
Mayor's show, and would be seen no
more till morning. However, sufficient
unto the hour was the hansom thereof.
Just now he would have thought for
nothing but the .luxury of having a
home and being In It.
Around three sides of the tall central
space ran a gallery, to be reached by a
flight of stairs at the rear, and up there
partitions had been put in by Mole
or some unknown predecessor of his
to form a bedroom and dressing cham
ber. All this upper part was wrapped
now In darkness, but during the day
Passy had hung from the gallery rail
some old rugs, and breadths of em
broidered altar vestments, and the re

flected firelight upon these was delight
ful to the eye. The contents of the
cases had been brought home in his
modest way as a collector were all In
evidence cuirasses, fans, swords. Jars,
reliquaries, and the rest upon trie
walltt or in appropriate corners. Mole,
In his hurried departure, had left eas
els, and an infinity of artistic raw ma
terial big, stretched canvass, portfolio,
drawing books and blocks, old frames,
rejected beginnings of pictures, and so
on into the Hat rubbish of a studio's
litter. Beyond pushing tt as far into
the background as possible, and here
and there picking out a bit for the
walls. Passy had not dealt with this
embarrassing legacy as yet. On the
morrow he would go through It more
attentively, and make a definite clear
ance of what was not wanted.
The lines upon which his wants would
be likely to proceed were hardly clearer
than they had been yesterday, but the
fact no longer possessed any urgency.
What was of much more value than his
studio furniture and. waste. Mole had
left a cheerful and comprehensive Im
pulse toward optimism, which con
tinued to warm and brighten the place.
Oddly enough. Mole mentioned Inci
dentally that he was leaving England
because he was broken-hearted, or
something like that; but If this were
true, then he had a marvelous talent
for keeping his emotions In separate
bulkhead compartments, so to speak,
for Passy had got nothing but high
spirits and gay confidence from con
tact with him. A casual suggestion
from their talk had taken a certain
root In Passy's mind. It had to do with
the possibility of lectures on the arts
In general. Illustrated by .lantern-slide
views of objects, places, ateliers, and
the like. Perhaps there was something
In the Idea, and Passy had gone so far
as to get out some hundreds of nega
tive fiims, and assort them, and think
of making mints for them if there
was ever any real daylight In London,
Hut If that project came to naught,
then some other would fructify. It was
all right. He smiled again, and rolled
another clenrette.
hlch had seemed to be apart
of the wind's general racket repeated
Itself at the door, and caught hiB car.
Something like a hurricane was blowing
outside, and there were streaming
splashes of rain upon the glass now as
well. The pound came again. It was
hard to make sure whether it belonged
to the storm's hubbub or not, but after
a moment Passy zeal as a new pro
prietor triumphed, and he went to the
door.
It opened Into a little passage, de
sc ending In three steps to the outer
door which gave upon the street pave
meit. When he drew back the spring
bolt of this latter a tremendous bwoop
of rain-laden wind on the Instant flung
him backward, with the door banged
upon him. A figure of some sort was
swept Into the passage by the same
violent propulsion, and when he turned
from finally mastering and securing
the door. It was to note that this some
body had ascended the steps and en
tered the studio.
