FREDERICK CHAPTER CVI. While I was glad of Blanche Or- ton's visit, #t in a way made me very uncomfortable. More so perhaps than 1 had been since the day I had been '80 snubbed by Scott. I tried to put myself in a business man's place, but "try as I would I vould S66 Mo reason why a legitinr®®s odusl- ness should be carried on in such a way; why it should be ne- cessary to use-the means Neil was naling to interest them in his pro- Jects--If those projects were puor- feetly legitimate ones. But I sald nothing to Neil, al- though I told hom of Mrs, Orivn's visit, He seemed rather surpiised I thought at first, but afterward I enneluded I had -been' mistaken. He asked me no questions, anda seemed to také it for granted that it was simply a social call without any ul- terior object. Yet while I sald nothing Lo Nell, 1 did not keep her visit--the cause of it rather, a secret. Mr. I'reder- ik called in the afternoon of the following day and found me "alone, although it was my afternoon at liome. My afternoons were not \s well attended as formerly, a cause of chagrin to me. 1 poured him tea, then said: "1 had a caller yesterday; Mrs. Orton. You know she was so nice to me the other night that 1 hegan to like her again----I used to think she was really charming when her husband was alive---she came to tell me why she received those women." I would not betray her in any way, but I felt I niust put the questions whith were so bothering me to someone, "'She said that men lke Tearle and Connor weren't happy unless they were entertained by handsome women who could play cards." I realized as I finished that I had not said what I intended, 'and that it sounded rather peiifile. "Yes, they are rather fond of the ladies." "Tell . me, please, Mr. Frederick, is it necessary to do business in that way--legitimate business 1 mean? It. seems so strange to me. Father always attended to business a* his 1 thought that was what of- tices were for." I tried to speak lightly. 'I did not want him to think 1 was too much worried. "I scarcely know how to answer you---Barbara," he had hesitated over my name. He seldom address: ed me go. "But it 1s done somé- times. Men like Tedrle and Connor are hard to Bandle sometimes. They are hard drinkers, and want their own way, espeajally when in New York. 'They have the arrogance of men who have made great fortunes quickly, "But why mix business with cards and--ladles?"' I asked. "Why not keep them separate. Can if not be done?" "f---perhaps~" he slowly, sip- ped his tea, and I knew he was try- ing to think 'how' to satisfy nie without blaming Nell. "Please Mr. Frederick don't treat me as a child. Neil won't tell. me anything about his affairs. I hear things, and I can't stand being kept in' the dark any longer. You are my good friend, aren't you? it you are, please tell me what to do to got' Nell away from those people and from---that business." I was so ignorant, 80 absolutely unversed in Neil's affairs that he, any one could See at once how little I knew. of business.' T think that was why he was sorry for me and tried to delp me. 1 had shown him I wanted to. help Nell. It made no difference that he eared . for me, really 4 think it mi him. more anxious to help Neil, He knew that I loved my husband passionately, and that'I would be true to him al- ways no matter what happen: "1 wish 1 could. 1 honestly do," he replied in his peculiar way. I'M give a good deal to set him straight, But I'm afrald he'll have to come a cropper first=--hetore he will listen to anyone." "You have talked with him?" "Yes, only, yesterday. I called at his ofijce. I had seen Seow, and Scott means mischief. He claims that Mr. Forbes has misrepresented hls properties and so has Induced him to invest, He didn't say mis- I tried to pagify him, but he wouldn't listen to me. Theén I went to your husband, and he wouldn't listen either. - 1 guess I'm- not a yery convincing talker, Mr, Forbes thinks Soott, 1a bluffing when he am not sure. Some- tio Sasboine dog bites.
