DICKY TELLS ME OF HIS LOVE (Copyright, 1916, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate) 1 could remember all that that evening. Strange as it may seem, it was Dicky who calm- me after my outburst. Happily us, my laughter had ' the of only a few persons seated and, after all, no distressing been created. } fortunate circumstance was that Dicky had not seen his sis- ter at the othér end of the dining as he was with Arthur, ly imagine what might if the poor boy had known after humiliating me, Arthur had gone to spend the even- with Myrtle. . had made him forget his , and so when my agi- ition Was at its height, he placed his on © 48 it lay on the table, and, it gently, urged me to be calm, re was something about the boy's words and something in his manner which had the desired effect, but I still was keenly aware of Arthur's presence at the other end of the room, and it required all my self control to prevent others near me from noticing that something was wrong.

"If he had loved you he would 'not have left you as he did. I could see that he was angry when he found you here with me, but af- ter he did find you he would have stayed if he had cared for you. It is Just as I told you. He does not love you. He is slipping from you." The waiter had brought the wine, and Dicky raised his glass and drain- ed the entire contents, As I watched him I saw the color come back to his face and an added lustre shine in his eyes. Again he placed his hand over mine. "Roxane, dear," he said, "if Ar thur does not love you, I do. You are the most beautiful and the sweet- est woman in the world." "Don't!" I cried, drawing my hand from his. "I am sure Arthur does love me." Dicky leaned forward suddenly. "Look at me, Roxane," he sald. "Can you expect me to believe that that man loves you? Why did you ever marry him?" \ I noticed for the first time that he had ceased to call me Mrs. Pem- broke and was addressing me by my first name, but I did not object. In- deed, it seemed but natural that he should call me Roxane, so intimate had we become in a short time. Then, too, he seemed to have grown older.
