CHAPTER XH!—Continued

She looked through everything and
found material with the dust of a year
upon it. !n a piie were pictures of
the poplar tree. He had made the
tree again and again. She caught a
hint of desperation. Hehadheen de-
liberated careless. He had distorted
the limbs, hut neither the carelessness
cor the distortion had given hint the
quality that iay now on the board
with the charcoal sketch of herself on
the stairs—a thing calted Life. VI-
tailty!
Months of work. Months of strug-
gie. Secret, silent—a new idea, a new
stirring pain goatling him out of his
path.
And every morning he had to go
and make the cat cartoons. He had
to go front the Sun to the movie
studio. When he was ionglng to ex-
periment wtth this new conception.
He was ready to leave satire for a
new form of beauty. He was ready to
establish a new and modern scitooi of
work.
!t was not an unnaturai develop-
ntent. Looking back, it seemed to
Ernestine that the years had conspired
in order to accompiisi) this. She re-
membered the tittie boy with ids leg
in a brace* who had made the book of
bird pictures for her—a hook site stiii
ioved and possessed, and which site
iiad been showing to Peter oniy a day
or two ago. Wiii had so loved the
coior of wings..
She recalled the water coiors on his
mother's waits: the smudged pictures
of John Pryor when lie was a baby—
crude hut warm. She remembered
what Mrs. Todd had said—all the
neighbors thought Wili wouid be a
great artist some day. If he were not
subjugated to her hlologlcai neces-
sities I
Through the newspaper environment
and his hero worship of Joint pooie
he had become a cartoonist. And he
had had hard work and desperate
struggle to at'contpilsit thnt. Hut the
very things tids success had brought
him had been a means of reieasing this
deeper, more sincere impulse. The
comfort, the ailiuence, the sense of
security, aii had enabled him to begin
to give heed to another voice.
And Wiii had thought in his slm-
piiclty that he cottid have a secret [

Mgiitfui gift of artistry. !te hud ex-
perimented here atone with new tools,
new methods, and thought that no one

Wiis going to destroy the cats as cer-
tainty as iove destroys infatuation.
Site stooped and brushed tightly
with her tips the charcotti image of
herself descending the stairs. Site
locked the door and went away, her
tips firm, iter eyes glowing in iter love-
)y face.
"Whenever you are ready, Will, 1
wiii be ready, too."
But Wiii did not seem to be ready.
He had changed. He had become
siient, morose, irritable. There was
no question now as to where he was
spending his time, for he pinyed bridge
hours every duy. He won constantiy,
Ernestine kept htm as clean of money
as she could, subverting aii that she
could iay hands on to her own pur-
poses. She did not know how much
money he won at cards, but his mania
was a now thing, and she could not
understand it. One night at a dance
in the club to which he beionged she
saw him through the open door Of the
cardroom, sitting at a heavy round
table, ids face absolutety set, his dark
eyes watchful, playing in an intense
absorption.
"Howdoeshepiay?"sheaskedher
partner, a friend of Will. "I've played
with him, of course, hut aiways with
women, and he seemed indifferent—
careless."
"I wish ! couid get him at a tahie
when there were women there." the
man, a middle-aged illustrator, an-
swered. "He has a great deal of my
money. Why, he piays an extraordi-
nary good game, and every one iikes
to piny with him because ite minds his
'own business. He piays for study, hut
he doesn't row. He makes no mis-
takes, but he doesn't jump on the
fellow who does. And cards) Oh,
boy—ho has them. He has an abso-
iuteiy marveious memory."
Ernestine knew this. Will's memory
was part of his equipment as an artist.
He would be able to visuaiize each
trlch that hud fatten, without error,
the knew. Hut site was troubted. Site
understood the psychological use of
the word "substitution." and it oc-
curred to her in connetcion with Wili
at the bridge tabtes, but she coutd not
get the thing ctearty. Will was drag-
ging himself with the mechanica) occu-
pation of cards. The cards interested,
absorbed, fascinated him; The mes-
meric fascination of the game wore

Something—site couid not quite get !t.
Rite couid not ask hint whether he had
teased going to ttielittteoiiice. She
felt haiked and wounded.
One duy when he telephoned that he
would not eat at home, and came in
after midnight, he fiung down on the
tahie a roii of bills.
"I've been piaying for ten cents a
point. Won rubber after rubber," he
said Indifferently.
Ernestine picked up the money and
counted it
"This wiit pay for—" she began, and
Wiii exciaimed passionateiy:
"My G—d, Ernestine, what do you
do with the money? I never see you
that you don't have your hand heid
out to me."
Her fear gave her sudden fury.
"Am I to account to you for every
penny?" she exclaimed. "I did with-
out, iong enough. Now that you're
earning, ate you going to he niggard-
ly with me? Don't you dare ask me
wiiatldowithmy money!"
He made no answer, his face bored
and scorttfui. She hud been thinking
that when he came in site wouid try
to talk to him. but ttow the moment
was passed. He undressed and got
into bed.nnd said in his quick ir-
ritable way:
"Either turn out the tight or go
somewhere else, i'm tired."
"From working?" site asked, and
then regretted swiftiy. That was too
much iike that other time—that other
pain.
Wili did not answer, itut turned his
hack audftung hts arm, In the blue
pajarna sleeve, up over his eyes.
Ernestine put out the lights except tite
smtili lamp at her aide of the bed,
andsutontheheiiforawiiHe, her
feet drawn up and her uruts ciastied
aroundherknees, thinking, her mind
turning tills way and that, her heart
fuli of patn.
"Wiii?" she said at iastgentiy, but
he did not answer. She went around
and stood beside him, iooklng down at
him. He was asieep. His eyes and
brow were hidden by tite foid of his
arm, hat his wide mouth, his mobile,
sensitive, excited mouth was in repose.
Where had she seen that droop he-
fore? !t was Elaine's. It was the
gentle enduring foid of iier mouth,
when she had been iittte and sick so
ntuch, and had itorne it all with such
remarkable patience. Will's mouth
was iike that. Not in cut or form, but
In the iine of Its expression. Wiii was
bearing something. He was sick. He
was enduring. Ernestine fett herseif
iost in a dark wood. Fiereeiy, passion-
ateiy, she buried in iterseif her per-
sona] resentment and pain. Site must
find a way out for aii of them. If she
couid see what to do! If something
wouid show her tite way!
Next morning Will ate his breakfast
and went out. his manner more norma)
that it had been of [ate. He kissed
her cheek, and said to her:
"Was I ronghiastnigiit. kitten?
You're paie. Sorry. I teft the money
in your desk drawer. Use it. It's ail
for you and the children, anyhow."
"Thanks, Wiii," site said iudifferent-
iy, for now she did uot care about the
money at all. "Ho you know any-
thing about Loring and Llliian? We've
not seen them for days. I've been
spring housecieaning, and haven't even
phoned her. I tried to get tier just
now, andnooneanswered."
"I think Loring and I'astano are
having some trouhie," said Wiii. "I
saw ituby a day or two ago, and he
was black in the face about somethiag
Loring tried to put over on him. Ile'lt
be hard, if ite gets turned ugainst
your brother-in-law. I'li caii Loring
at tils ofllce today, and see if I can
find out what's up. Welt, so iong.
I'nt iate."
Ernestine was busy with iter family
and household aii morning, but with a
sense of troubied foreboding in her
heart. She went to tite phone two or
three times, hut couid not get Liilian's
house nor Loring's oflice.
"Funny thing Liilian's maid isn't at
home," she thought, but no one an-
swered the proionged ring at the otiter
house. Ernestine went on about her
work, and at eieven o'ctock, Molly
caiied her to tite phone.
"Hetio," said Ernestine.
It was a woman's voice, crisp, young
and businesslike.
"Airs. Wiit Todd?"
"Yes."
"This is tite Van Hueten Ctark Street
Savings hank calling. Could you come
down here right away?"
"Why—1 don't know. Why shoutd I?"
"I'm afraid I can't teii you that.
You're to come here for a private con-
ference. I beiieve it's important."
"Why, yes," said Ernestine. ."I can
come. But 1 don't understand. There's
not a run on the bank, is there? I've
aii my savings—"
"Oh, no," said the cheerful voice.
"Nothing iike that, I assure you. Can
you be here about ten minutes of
tweive? Tite doorman wiii take you to
the private ofiice."
"Weit," said Ernestine, "it aii seems
very mysterious, but I'M come. I t) be
there at ten to twelve."
"Thank you. Mrs. Todd. And.
piease, I was to ask you to come by
the Ciark Btreet car, and leave tite car
at Ontario Btreet, instead of coming iti
your owtt car."
The crisp voice was disconnected
Ernestine put the receiver in pia e
wonderingiy. Weii, there was no an
Bwer to her questions untii she was
there.
She ieft the street car at Ontario
street and waiked south. The door
man at the bank greeted her wtth a
stiff nod, ieft his ptaca and waiked
back through the big downstairs room.
Ernestine foiiowed him.

"Sit down, won't you?" the voice,
sitky, soft, as ntways, had in it a note
of gentieness that went to Ernestine's
heart, in spite of her formed and set
prejudices against Ituby Pastano.
He drew up for tier a chair uphol-
stered in red pigskin, and abb sat
down, upright, ready for fifght, on the
edge of it. He seated himseif before
her on the empty desk.
"I dtdn't wunt you to come to my

beiieve that t am Wiii'sfriend?"
Ernestine fett that the occasion wits
momentous. Site fett herseif thrust
hack from the ordinary conventional
judgments of her ciass and generation
to something more fundamentai. She
answered naturally, honestiy:
"Yes,"sttesaid, "yes, Ido."
"Good." he said. "I've not done

"What do you mean, Ituby?' she
asked, her thoughts turning to Will.
How couid he be involved with this
man? He tiad never tind any contact
with Pastano except the free contact
of friendship. He had never had a
favor from him.
"No." he said, reading iter thought,
"not Wiit—but Loring—your sister's

"Loring—ruined? But how?"
