Floor Ruthven glanced somewhat dubious- ry at the dog; then as the animal made no ofl'enslve movement he craned his fleshy neck striving to see inside the house. He did seeâ€"nothing very much. only the same young girl, still in her furs. emerging from an inner room. her arms fill of dolls. ’ ‘ In his eagerness-to see more Ruthven pushed past the great white dog. who withdrew his head disdainmny from the unceremonions contact, but quietly followed Ruthven into the house, standing heside‘him, watching him out of great, nmpn'deerlike eya; * ‘ But Ruthven no longer heeded the«‘ dog.

Only an open door confronted him. with a his. mild eyed wolfhound standing in the doorway looking steadily up at him. Voxod, determined not to return without tome definite diecovery. Ruth- von stepped upon the veranda. Juli around the angle or the porch he heard a door opening. and he hurried for- ward. impatient and absolutely un- afraid. unxioue to let one good look at his wife and be 01!. i There were clumps of evergreens I about, tall cedars, a bit of bushy tore- land and a stretch of snow. And across this open space of snow a ,Iyoung girl was moving. followed by a white wolfhound. Once she paused. hesitated. looked cautiously around her. Ruthven, hiding behind a bush, saw her thrust her arm into a low evergreen shrub and draw out a shin- ing object that glittered like glass. Then she started toward the house again. At first Ruthven thought she was his wife. Then he was not sure. and be out his cigar away and followed. aiinking forward among the ever5 greens. But the youthi‘ui. tur clad tiguro kept straight on to tho venudn or the house. and Buthvon. curious and determined to and out whether it was Alixe or not. left the «mi-shelter or the evormnn and crouod the open space Just as the woman‘s 6mm dil- nppearod around an uncle of tho vo- randa. Mr. Hanam was a very busy, very sanguine, very impetuous young man. and when he met Ruthven at the Edge- water station he told him promptly that he had the best case on earth; that he, Hallam, was going to New York on the next train, now almost due, and that Ruthven had better drive over and see for himself how gayly his wife maintained her house- hold, for the Cossack sleigh, with its gray crimson tchug, had but just re- turned from the usual afternoon spin. and the young Chatelaine of Willow Villa was now on the snow covered lawn. romping with the coachman’s huge white wolfhound. Ruthven drove to the villa. Which he‘did, without hearing from them uhtflr Mr. Hanam Mtélegraphed him to come to Edgewater If he had nothing better to do. To all of which his attorneys listen- ed very. attentively, bade him have an fear of his life. requested him to make several aflidavits and leave the rest to them for the present. Excited, incredulous. but hoping for the worst, Ruthven had posted ofl' to his attorneys. To them he naively confessed his desire to ‘be rid of Alixe. He reported her miscondmt with Neen gardâ€"which he knew was a lie-her pretense of mental prostra tion. her dis- appearance and his last interview with Selwyn in the card room. He also gave a vivid description of that gentleman’s disgusting behavior and? his threats of violence during that in-‘ terview. ant maven was totally unprepared to! the report brought him by 1 pa- vato may to the effect that Mrs. 83mm was “apparently in perfect health. living in the country. mains taking a villa and sins of sewsnm that she might be seen driving a per- fectly appointed Cossack sleigh any day with a groom on the rumble and a companion beside her; that she seem ed to be perfectly sane. healthy inl body and mind. comfortable, happy and enjoying life under the protection of a certain Captain Selwyn. who paid all her bills and at certain times was seen entering or leaving her house at Edgewater. nethve‘i‘ieedeé‘mfiné’f' He needed 1: because he meant to put the ocean between himself and Balm before commencing any cult. whatever ground he mlsht cheese for entering each I suit.
