I wanted to think, and I could always think better out of doors. I had twice tried to do something to, help Neil, rather to put myself in a position to help him, and had failed both times. Was there nothing I could do? Was I to make a failure of everything I undertook? TIt was nearly luncheon time when Cameron of Mayfield were in the city yesterday. Mrs. Howard Strickland and little son Dick of Hunnewell were city visitors yesterday.

Hyten of Hunne we returned to the house. To my surprise 1 saw Neil's hat and coat on the rack in the hall. I called, then went to the library. Neil lay on the divan, has hand shading his eyes. He neither moved nor spoke when I went in.

I laid my hand over his and asked: "What is it dear? Are you ill?" "No!" shortly. "Can I help you Neil? I wish you would tell me what is worrying you. I know something is," I added in response to a dissenting gesture. "No let me alone." I went quietly out and closed the door. I told his aunt he still was suffering with a headache, and so would not join us at luncheon.

The telephone rang two or three times but I would not disturb him, altho his office asked for him. "Have him call us," I recognized the pert stenographer's voice. well were here last evening attend- ing the commencement exercises. Mrs. Lee Brower and her small NEIL FORBIDS BARBARA TO GO TO MRS.

ORTON'S PARTIES CHAPTER, C. Neil scarcely spoke all the way home. But I tried to talk to Mr. Frederick altho I felt very little like conversing. It made me uncomfortable to think he had seen Neil drinking, too much.

I couldn't help wondering also what he must think of me for going to Mrs. Orton's. I realized perfectly that he knew I had received no invitation. That while she had made the others, even Neil, think she had invited me, he knew it was not so. With his usual kindness however he tried to put me at ease by talking of the latest play- and other things unconnected with what had happened that evening.

I was glad when we reached home, and altho Neil was cross, and rather surly I felt happy to think he was with me, instead of with those other women at Blanche Orton's. "What in tfie devil did you come over there for?" Neil asked. "You heard what Mrs. Orton said. And why shouldn't I go where you do especially when it happens to be to visit a widow?" "Well don't do it again! I won't have you trailing me." I started to deny that I followed him, then thought better of it and said nothing.

"I won't have it, do you "Yes, Neil." "See that you don't let it happen again. Those people aren't the kind I want my wife to associate with. Blanche is all right, but the others aren't your kind. He yawned prodigiously, and I hurried to bed without replying. There was no use arguing with him in his present condition.

The next morning he woke with a headache, but insisted upon getting up and going to the office. I did not urge him to remain at home. He had acted anxious and disturbed for days. Perhaps his affairs needed his attention, and if kept him at home, he might blame me." Aunt had annoyed him with questions, until as I went to the door with him he said in an exasperated whisper: "Why kloesn't she go home? She's staid long enough." "Neil acts peevish. He must be ill.

I am sure he is overworking," she remarked when I returned' to the daughter Rosalee of Ft. Scott are the guests of Mrs. S. T. Graham.
