Of course I understood very little of what they discussed. 1 noticed however that not only Mrs. Orton but the other ¢wo women as well as the men seemed perfectly familiar with all the details. Occasionally the hostess would interrupt with some remark, and I noticed that Whatqger she sald received ~atten- tion. Ne was not so with the others. As I observed this I recalled what Frederick had said: they were in- vited to amuse and entertain men like Tearle and Connor. When 'the coffee was served the discussion had become quite heated. Mrs. Orton, Neil and Tearle talking fast and earnestly, Sho\and Neil were trying to prove to Tearle that if he put up a large amount of money, his returns were bound to he enor- mous. 1 noticed that Frederick had not once joined in the conversation, Finally we all rose from the table and adjourned to the drawing room where card tables had been placed while we were at dinner. "Mrs. Forbes does not play," Neil's voice startled me. 1 played an excellent game of bridge, bat never had played poker, the game they intended to play. "That is too bad! suppose we do not' -- "I will chat with Mrs, Forbes. You do not need me in the game," Mr. Frederick interrupted. He at once placed a chair for me somo distance from the table, and sat himself near, asking permission to smoke. Then: "Why did you do it? "I had to." © J did not pretend to misunderstand nun. "I must find some way to help Neil--instesxd of having him come here," I spoke very low. "You were very brave. I don't Sngepsiand how you accomplish it." "1 swill tell you some time. I will tell you now however that.l never liked Mrs. Orton sowell as I do to- night. She came tomy aid wonder- fully." "She is a remarkable 'woman---in many Sways,"" - hereturned . slowly. Then. for 'a few moments we 'did not speak. I noticed that both Neil and Mrs. Orton frequently glanced In my direction. Once I overheard one of the women say: . v "It's stupid to-night!" and T knew she was referring to my presence. Frederick also had heard and com- mended talking. After a few: mo- ments another remark was made, so 'palpably with me in mind that ne one could mistake its meaning. 1 flushed, to my annoyance, then re- gained my composure as Neil said: "As you don't play cards, Bab, why not play the plano." Then: "My wife is a finished musician," he addéd to no one in icular. do, Mrs. Forbes! I haven't The ® & omoter's Wife By Jane Phelps NEIL SUGGESTS THAT BARBARA LEAVE EARLY heard any really good music in ages," Mrs. Orton urged. 1 immediately went 'to the piano. I played gay little airs which I thought would be appreciated. Then at Neil's request more serious music, and music in which I always lost myself. For over an hour 1 played, then turned around to see Neil 'get up from the table and tagger toward me. I knew he had been drinking too much wine, yet 1 was totally unprepared for what followed. "Go on home now, Bab. You're a good girl all right! I won't have you coming here. Blanche is all right, too, she's a brick. But she knows about things, and you don't." "But I can learn, Nell," 1 said in a trembling voice, laying my hand on his arm, and not observing Mrs. Orton who had come up behind him. "If I go home will you come with me? Please do, dear." "Of course he will! there is noth- ing more to be done with Tearle to- night," she whispered. "If there is I can manage him better than you can. You ru along with Mrs Forbes. And thank you for com- ing to me to-night," she extended her hand to me. "I have been very glad and proud to have you," she looked me steadily in the eyes as she spoke. I knew she meant me io know she admired me for my ac- tion, "I will run along also if you wilt excuse me," Frederick said. "1 have a'taxi waiting outside. I will take you home if I may," he turn- ed to Neil. Long afterward I found out that he had the taxi wait sure I intend- ed to be there, and fearing a scene, had planned to get ma away. Neil accepted his offer rather un- graciously. He did not 'want to leave, and showed it plainly. Bat Mrs. Orton insisted that he accom- pany me, and that she did not need m.
