CHAPTER XXV.
By the -Bun-Dial.
Eyes arched vith fan-shielded whis.
pers, and fair faces, foreshortened as
they turned back over powder-whito
.shoulders, followed their swallow-like
movement. From an ever-widening
circlo of masculine devotees Kathariine
Fargo watched theni with a smile that
cloaked an incrcas!ng and unwelcome
question.
Katharine had never looked more
handsome; a critical survey of her
mirror iLL Gladden llall had assured
her of that. Never had her poise been
more superb, her toilet more enraptur
Ing. She was exquisitely gowned in
roe-colored mousseline-de-sole, em
brodered ic tuy billiaits laid on in
Greek patterns. From her neck, in a
single splendid loop of iridescence
against the rosy inlet, depended those
'fabulous pearls--"the kind you sim

metrqpolitan shop-girls had been wont
to gaze with glistening eyes; and with
in their milky circlet, on her rounded
breast, trembled three pale gold-veined
orchids.
Watching that quadrille through her
drooping emerald-tinted eyes, she had
received a sudden enlightening impres
sion of Shirley's flawless beauty. At
the tournament her fleeting glimpse
bad adjudged the other merely sweetly
pretty. The Chalmers' surrey had
stopped en route for Shirley, but in
her wraps and veil she had then been
all but invisible. This had been Kath
rine's first adequate view, and the
'sight of her radiant charm had the
effect almost of a blow.
For Katharine, be it said, had wholly
surrendered to the old, yet new, at
traction that had swept her on the
tourney field. And what had lain al
'ways in the back of her mind as a half
formed intention, had become a self.

Iride.

self. But there was no smilo on her
lips and her extraordinary eyes-cool
gray, shot through with emerald
were looking into his with a frankness
and sympathy he would not have
guessed lay beneath her glacial pla
cidity.
To Katharine, indeed, it made little
difference nihat philanthropic fads the
man she had Chosen might affect as
regarded his tenantry. Ambitions liko
these had a manorial flavor that did
not displease her. And the Fargo mil
lions would bear much harmless ham.
mering. A change, subtle and incom
municable, passed over her.
"I shall think of you," she sighed,
"as working on in this splendid pro
gram. For it is splendid. But New
York will nmiss you, John."
"Ah, no. I've no delusions on that
score. I dare say I'm almost forgotten
there already. Here I have a place."
11er head, leaned back against the
cushion, turned toward him, the pale
orchids trembling on her bosom-she
was so near that he could feel her
breath on his cheek. A new waltz
had begun to sigh its languorous meas
ures.
"Place?" she queried. "Do you think
you had no place there? Is it possible
that you do not understand that your
going has left-a void?"
He looked at her suddenly, and her
eyes fell. Before he answered, how
ever, the big form of Major Bristow
appeared, looking about him.
"It has-left a void," she said, her
eyes still downcast, her voice just low
enough, "-for me."
The major pounced upon them at
this juncture, feelingly accusing John
of the nefarious design of robbing the
assemblage of its bright and partic
ular star. When. Katharine put her
hand in her cavalier's arm, her eyes
were dewy under their long shading
lashes and her fine lips ever so Uttle
tremulous. It had been her best avail
able moment, and she had used it.
As she moved away, her faint color
slightly heightened, she was glad of
the interruption. It was better as It
was. When John Valiant came to her
again. . . .
But to him, as he stood watching
her move lightly from him, there was
voueh-fed illumination. It came to
him suddenly that that placidity and
hauteur which he had so admired in
the old days were no mask for fires
within. The exquisite husk was the
real Katharine. He s was the loveli

For one instant she struggled. Then,
slowly, her eyes turned to his, the
sweet lips trembling, and something
dawning deep In the dewy blue that
turned all his leaping blood to quick
silver. "My darling!" he breathed,
and their lips met.
In that delirious moment both had
the sense of divine completion that
comes only with love returned. For
him there was but the woman in his
arms, the one woman created for him
since the foundation of the world. It
was Kismet. For this he had come to
Virginia. For this fate had turned
and twisted a thousand ways. Through
the riot of his senses, like a silver
blaze, ran the legend of the calendar:
"Every man carries his fate upon a
riband about his neck." For her, some
thing seemed to pass from her soul
with that kiss, some deep irrevocable
thing, shy but fiercely strong, that had
sprung to him at that lip-contact as
steel to mdgnet. The foliage about
them flared up in green light and the
