The Jews marry early, and had Adolphe continued to live in Frank- fort, it id likely that hé would have married long ago some daughter of "la haute finance," but something be- side business had kept him from it all . these years, the instinct hardly defin- ed, that as his money increased so his ideals would: expand, and that the wife who would suit Adolphe Lieb the son 'of old Lieb the jeweller o Frankfort at five and twenty would not suit the multimillionaire at thirty five. He was conscious not only that he could now make a great marriage but that in a sense on marriage de- pended his greatness, that he could not realize his dreams alone. Why even the Gollings had made further progress «into the heart of London exclusiveness than he had, and he was certain that it was Mrs, Golling's doing. | He liked Mrs. Golling very much, and had not minded when she told him that having brought Azuma to London, having her in the house in Park Lane had done him harm. He had even laughed, probably because he felt so innocent, but he had yet to learn that if the world doesn't care how criminal you are if you don't look it, it also doesn't care how inno- cent you are if you ' don't look: it. And no matter how young or how old, how pretty or how plain, of what race and what colo¥ a woman is, no matter what the links that: bind them, or if nothing binds them, & man who lives in Park Lane with a woman who is not his wife, must not be surprised if society raises its eye: brows, ; : In matters of worldly knowledge, Adolphe Lieb was a babe, younger if anything than he had been ten years ago at Frankfort, because busi- ness had absorbed him to the exclus sion of everything else, and because South Africa and dealings with men outside the pale of cultivated and ad= vanced civilization, had thrown over him something of pristine savagery. Lady Judith was conscious at once of his simplicity of mind, and of the rugged savagery, which 'had become second nature and which lent: him a charm he had not possessed as a oung flaneur on the streets of rankfort. : Yes, they had met at the right mo- ment, and when he saw Lady Judith it seemed to him as if he had just found something that was: missi from his house in Park Lane, whic! he had always known was. missing, but which he had not known how to give a name to. So a"man might see and recognize a picture which 'he knows has once fitted into =a panel over his own chimneypiece. ; Once - during luncheon without kn that he did so, he wondered "how a 'beautiful necklace would look ; her neck, wi he. had 'made from the finest diamonds of his 3, a necklace falling in drops in 'double rows of drops of which one could not see the connecting Prien 0 which | ars rollin fay at his waiting [ike a guil lige He never remembered tp have been so drawn out by any woman, forget- ting that partly he enjoyed her con versation because he so seldom talked to a woman of the world; or a woman at all, except Azuma,' while she, it only occurred to her after he had gone, that she had never before forgotten that she wanted to marry| jag a man, in her interest in the man him- self. Yet it was so. Away from her home, from. her mother, from the surroundings which, till the end of time; wouldweach 6ne be an associa: tion with ithe terrible past, with the sensation as of skimming the ocean close to quicksands, or instead, tak- ing perilous flights, she had been not perhaps so much her real self as she was now. Now she was more what she might have been, and being an intelligent woman, all he told her in- terested her, while the way he spoke of billions where others talked of thousands, had a strange fascination, such as she had imagined great wealth would bring, without being quite able to picture it. Yet she knew that he had no 'wish to dazzle her .by what he told her. The descriptive words fell by acecl- dent here and there, when he spoke of the new railway he was building, of his plan to build another town in South Africa. a When he left, Lady Judith tried to find out within herself -why she had been actually happy during that hour's talk; and 8he imagined that it was because by the feeling that the man was beneath her in position, that there would be no striving to catch hold of him, that she had only to put out her hand, that, as she de- scribed it to herself, "it was all go- ing so easily." And at the Sollings to which they had pereu led come, Judith telling , chaf- fingly, that if he didn't go she wouldn't, she had seen . the Quick 'bright gleam of recognition in his eyes as they met hers again, and they had seemed to resume the conversa= tion where they had left it." That was' what gave her a feeling of re- pose and certainty when she went in search of him, when later he was missing from the bigger rooms, and which gave a note of joyousness to her tonés when she exclaimed: "Dear me, what is all this about? Brr- , . rr. How an everybody looks.. I'm really frightened." Anyone less could hardly be imagined, but the joy- ousness: pierced, as her eyes alighted on Adolphe- Lieb, arguing 'with the Premier's secretary, who seemed real- ly annoyed.

Sa "Perhaps he isn't at all certain that you political people aren't al- ways glad of a war if you can only pull it' off properly." ; Adolphe ieb laughed, and the sec- retary looked very annoyed, He was one of those men who are so fussy and important about things that no- body can control, that when ai x occurred - which he might have con. trolled, nobody paid any attention to him.

To Mr. Du Cane she seemed almost like a traitress to her own' country, "After all, I suppose that in time there will be railroads everywhere," she 'went on, "and if Mr. Lieb likes to take the trouble, why not?" She smiled sweetly at Adolphe Lieb 3 who stood away from the conversa- tion as it were, listening to these two, who belonged to the same world, dealing swith the things which he alone understood. "It will mean a rising of the whole of EEYDL against it, and we . shall either lose Egypt or----" "Or have to take it." Adolphe Lieb put in the suddenly with a flash. of fire: "Which would mean war with the world," put in the secretary coldly. "War with the world, oh, Mr. Lieb; that you must not allow." "I, what have I to.do. with it? 1 merely suggest what I know we shall ave to do presently, it i words is for the Government to agcept or refuse," he shrugged his shoulders. = * At that moment a group 'of people .
