His lightest word to her C was fraught with'it, his most fleet- ing glance betrayed it. At the end of the long three hours, when the guests had lingered out, one by one, and she stood by the fire-place, tired, drooping, superb, barely raising her eyes as she spoke to him, they might have been alone in the world. What did he say as bent toward her, what did his smiling eyes say? Ellen did not know, or care. The words were nothing, the look was nothing, it was the trembling intens- ity with which they charged them that ate into her soul like acid upon a plate. None of them was sane now, Ellen perhaps the least of the three. She was burning with an agony of jealousy and doubt and anger far more painful than apy actual fire would have been. She was conscious of Gibbs and Lillian every instant of the day. They were not often alone to- gether, after all. A moment in the long drawing room, befor» dinner, a few sentences murmured in her ear as Gibbs crossed the tennis court at Lillian's side, perhaps a stolen tea- hour once a week in the city; this was the most. Even for this there must be endless contriving and tire- less intrigue. Ellen could not tell what was suspicion, what fact, what was mere innocent chance, and what was deliberate arrangement. Sometimes, watching, watching, watching, forlorn and lonely, she longed to tear aside the veil of kind- ness and happiness in which her life was wrapped, and fling herself sob- bing upon her husband. «Gibbs, Gibbs, my darling! How much of it is true--how much otitis my wretched imagination? Have you let yourself come to care for her-- have you forgotten me? 1 am your lite--I am your past and present--I alone! Let us leave all this behind us and go somewhere where we may be poor again, and you shall paint, and I will mend and cook, and all the old joy will come back to us again!" : She dared not say it. What wo- man ever dare? She had lost so much, she'dared not risk more. El- len never had had much self-con- fidence, she lost it all now. She be- came afraid. Lillian could take Gibb's love away from her, perhaps Lillian could make him leave her and Tommy completely. Perhaps Lillian wanted more than his pass- ing admiration. Well, and if so, what could a tearful, disheartened, crush- ed little Ellen do? Sometimes, in'her misery, it would seem to her that her reason must give way. The blow had been too sharp and too sudden. Why, they had reached America only a few months ago, and he had beenyall her own then, he had spoiled h~r, and idolis- ed her, and told her all his joys and sorrows.

And then would come the hour of dressing for dinner, with a kindly and abstracted Gibbs, and the din~ ner hour itself, when Ellen was sil-| ent, and the old man pleasantly talk- ative, and when Lillian and Gibbs, barely addressing each other, were wrapped in a quivering zone of thrill. | Ah, she could not | | ing communion. | bear it--she could not bear | She was hardly conscious of what it!-- } | she said or did, as courage and hope | died out of her heart, and the famil- | far torture re-commenced. Gibbs was entirely unconscious of her suffering, because he was almost unconscious of her existence. He had never forgotten his wife for his business or his art, as many men do, but in the intensity of his new pass sion Ellen was completely lost to him. So might a man feel if he were sul- denly stretched upon the rick. Gibbs knew that Ellen was there, just as Tommy and Lizzie and his father were there, in the house at Wheatley Hills, but his senses re- | sponded to nothing but Lillian. He talked to his father, to Lizzie, to Ellen, and he redd books to Tommy Women Do Wonders With Diamond Dyes " Each package of "Diamond Dyes contains simple directions tq dye old, taded, shabby materials whether wool, silk, linen, cotton or mixed goods, any new, rich, fadeless color.

"What 'you might have done -- what you might have done in a dif- ferent environment!" Lillian said, as if to herself. "To tie you down to domesticities--you!" The soft, deep voice died away into silence. It was twilight in the studio, the end of a wonderful In- dian summer day was dying in the park. A cooler breeze than the city had known for many hours drifted in through the open studio windows, faintly the strains of a hurdy-gurdy came gaily from the street: 'Where the River Shannon's Flowing--"' Gibbs was perhaps a little tired. The day had been long and hot and dirty. He glanced at Lillian, all fragrance and freshness, ready to whirl him away into another world of greenness and silence and beau- ty.
