Mr. Rayburn then turned to me and asked: "Are you also interested in mip- ing?" "Certainly. Isn't a wife always interested in what her husband does?' 1"had spoken lightly, yet I meant my reply to be heard and no- ticed, especially by Neil and Mrs. Orton. They were conversing in low tones but very earnestly. "A man is fortunate who can en- list the interest of two charming women," his soft voice giving the words a meaning. "Pwo?" the question slipped un- consciously from my lips. "Yes---he glanced knowingly at Neil, whose head was bent toward bis hostess as he listened intently to something she was saying. "Oh, Mrs. Orton!" . He must not think there was anything going on of which I was ignorant. 'She is in- terested in everything and anything." "A very clever woman, and a dan- gerous one." "You read character?" "Yes. At times. It is easy to read a woman of her sont, Charming, fas- cinating, unscrupulous-- when it suits them." I was surprised that he should speak in such a manner, and iprod- ably showed it, because he added: "Of course I make mistakes. We all do--save the professionals." "What are vou two discussing?" Mr. Dantzig asked, "Is Rayburn tell- ing your fortune, Mrs. Forbes?" She By Jane Phelps FINDS THE DINNER CONVER. SATION ENIGMATIC "No---We were discussing charac- ter." "Which he reads-- or thinks he gan. 'By Jove you can, too, Rayburn! That is, you can at times. 1 recall that man in San Francisco you warn- ed us against, and whom we all liked so well we would not beleve you. You were dead right in that case. He turned out to be the biggest scalawag unhung." "What did he do?" It was Blanche Orton's drawling voice that asked the question, "Did he refuse to. come in with you on some deal?" veiled sarcasm in her tones. ' "Why insinuate, fair lady?" "1, too, read character at times-- I am only following your lead." The conversation puzzled me. What did Mrs, Orton mean? I look- ed toward Neil, and he was scowling. Presently he raised his glass and proposed a toast to success. I ima- gined he did it to change the sub- ject. For the remainder of the dinner the conversation was general. But later, in the drawing room, Mr, Ray- burn rather devoted himself to me. Neil was seated on a divan talking earnestly to Blanche Orton, and Mr. Dantzig seemed to be trying to in- terest Marie Wilson. | "Have you been in Mexico?" Mr. Rayburn asked. "No, Mr. Forbes has not heen there since 'we have been married. I hope to go with him, should it prove mee- essary for him to go again. I have a great curiosity about the country." "You will be delighted with Mexi- co City. Many of the old Spanish families are very delightful, and en- tertain on a scale of which we peo- ple of this country cannot conceive unless we have been recipients." "1 am more anxious to see all these wonderful mines than anything else, 1 think. I want to see just how they are worked, and under- stand all about mining." "You are asking a good deal for a promoter's wife," with which enig- matic remark, he turned to reply to a question Neil had asked. To-morrow-- Neil Tells Barbara More About His Business.
