loves her and she tells him that she is
to marry Beverly Mason, finally eon-
fessing that she loves Latour, but
binding Dale on his honor not to tell
him.
PART I—CHAPTER VL
VIVIEN.
Edith stood suddenly before him.
Dale Everett stood where she left him,
thought iiound. The little French clock
ticked the endless message of time, the
Nemesis, but the throbbing of his own
heart and the echo of the girl's challenge
were the only sounds ho heard.
Far less rapt he might well have
missed the softest rustle of skirts, the
lightest si.ind of French slippers on the
porch, as Editli Van der Huysen stepped
from it to the grass plot and passed rap
idly into the shrubbery.
Yet had Dale that moment seen her
face he might have thought a specter
had crossed the path before her, not
that chance had bronght her from her
room for a quiet stroll among the roses;
for its glowing olive was ashen dull,
and the hinted veins beneath now stood
out strong on throat and temple. The
red lips closed in straight and crnel line
that sent the blood all out of them, and
the brown eyes gleamed black as night
with evil, dangerous light
Bnt with firm step and figure erect
the woman walked away, and the blood
brought the olive to her face once more
as the lips curled into a bitter smile and
finally parted laughing as she said aloud:
“Edith Van der Huysen, can you
really be a fool? Yonr place is in court,
not camp. And surely you are old
enough to give up playthings. If not
vay lord is toy enough.' 1
And again the low laugh came, with a
tinge of humor in it; the eyes grew
lighter, and the tall form fell into its
auinoja grace, as the gravel crunched
and Adrien Latour came swiftly up the
walk
Parting the shrubbery Edith stood
suddenly before him, a glowing picture
in the great Gainsborough hat with her
old smile on her lipa
••Welcome, Sir LaggardT she said ex
tending her ungloved hand. “As you
could never lie ‘a dastard in war,' you
are yet in time.”
••And a* you can never be leas a rid
dle, yon read one again,'* the Creole an
swered, only half hiding a look of dis-
rippoiutment as he took the hand she of-
forsul •Will you explain this one. or ia
ilt shat in your book?”
Edith following his gianee
for the first time that she ‘
book as the hastily left '
them one by one back into the envel
ope.
“I have made my own fate,” she said
aloud, ns if to the superscription in
Adrien - * bold, free hand. “Having
made it, 1 will meet it like as trne a
woman as 1 may. In a few hours 1 shall
be a wife. These are the toys of child
hood: they are mine no more. Only a
future is mine—no past Among them
they have killed that!"
Still moving quietly, with no cloud on
her face, without even a S’gh, Bennie
Standish piled the papers and the flowers
in the empty hearth, touched a match to
them, and calmly watched while they
curled into gray ash, blackening as it
cooled.
Then she turned to the desk again,
chose a tiny sheet of l>aper, and wrote—
almost automatically—these words:
Qod pardons oar Rins Surely he forplvea our
errors He will pity the child, forced into a mar
riage without love: will light the wrong thus
done othci-s—and herself: On your honor, re
member! Adrlt n must never know the lore fur
him that forces t heno last words ever to he signed
> I'essis Stan hisa
Folding the sheet several times she
slipped it in tiie ennallest envelope and
sealed it with steady fingers. Then, still
holding it in her hands, she knelt by the
bedside and bowed her head in silent
prayer. Long she knelt; and the sun,
passing westward on his way to might,
looked into the window near and sent
his golden light around the golden hair,
like a halo.
When Bennie Standish rose from her
knees only the red rimmed eyelids told
of the storm passed by. Paler than its
wont, her face was quiet, even gentle.
Not one tremor showed in the hands
that quietly took out the simple, tasteful
traveling dress and dainty bonnet and
laid them on the bed. ready for the
bridal toilet This she began by drop
ping the masses of shining hair about
her shoulders and passing again to the
into never smnined ;t: and At
lant—with a deep breath, that was not a
sigh—tdie said to the reflected self:
“No! I have not sinned! God grant
I have not erred too deeply! Tim i* the
end of the child: may lie guide tiie
woman!”
Hearing Edith's step as she spoke
these words. Bennie turned quietly and
unlocked the always open door. The
other girl paused as she entered, and
looked at her strangely
“Why, Bennie dear, what is the mat
ter? Yon seem really woebegone. These
are not the looks for a bride elect! You
bring back wicked old John Snckling s
song:
Why «o wan and pale, young Iotiw
Prithee, why so tiatoi
Will when looking well cwnt move her
Looking til pi-vvAil-
Prithee. why no l>aie-
•Do not jest. Edith.” Bennie answered
gravely. “It is no trifling step 1 am
about to take. Can you wonder that
the responsibility weighs on me? It is
grave—awful!’'
“But yon never so looked at it before.”
Miss Van der Huysen answered quietly
“And you sqreiy have had time to think
of all this."
“1 was never so near it then,” Bennie
answered gravely, but still calmly. “It
never seemed so real before.”
“Scarcely flattering to the grooni to
be." Editli retorted with a dry little
laugh. “But then he will never know,
dear; so go on with your dressing like a
good child. Before l begin my own
war paint, can I do anything?"
“Nothing! Oh. yes; you can give"
Bennie put her hand to her bosom
touched the note hidden there, and
stopped suddenly, looking straight into
Miss Van der Huysen's quiet brown ev es
with trusting blue ones. “Edith, I be
lieve you love me—no, don’t interrupt
me! I know you do. Ami I trust you
implicitly. I bei.eve you can trust me
without a word of explanation. Here!
When we are gone—not before, remem
ber; bnt after we leave Rose villa to
night-give this to Dale Everett. Give
it when no one is by to see. Don’t ask
me anything, please! It is a simple
little note; only a word of farewell, and
a little request."
Edith Van der Huysen's eyes darken
ed, but the voice was sweetly low that
answered:
“Certainly, dear; Dale shall have it.
as you ask. And why should 1 ask any
questions? But have you nothing to
give—no word even—for Adrien?"
“Nothing," Bennie answered simply.
Edith took the little envelope, but
never moved her quiet, darkened eyes
from Bennie’s face as the latter crossed
to tiie bell.
“I'll ring for Marie to dress me now;
it is really late," she said listlessly, show
ing none of that excitement presumed
by the inexpert to belong to prepara
tions on the feminine side for the great
event of Ufa
“Can I do u<-thing more?” Edith ask
ed, still lingering. "Then l. too, must
go and prepare for the—sacrifice!”
The word fell slowly from her lips;
but. if meant for a cue, Bennie did not
pick it up. She only said gently:
"I did not call it that, dear. Now loss
me tnd go dress. ” ,
Miss Van der Huysen kissed her friend
on the cheek—one of those feminine
kisses that may mean a whole world of
affection yet would differ nothing in |
outward show did it carry poison to the 1
lips of an inconvenient rival. Then she
crossed the hall to her own apartment,
holding the little letter in her hand. Bnt
as she went she turned it over nervous
ly, as though it were hot and burned her
fingers.
In her own room she. too, turned the
rarely used key, threw herself into an
armchair and leaned back with half
closed eyes; but through the lashes
gleamed the dark light of busy thought.
Twice she raised the Uttle envelope,
staring hard at it then, as if she had
settled her point, tossed it on the bed and
went methodically about her toilet.
Half undressed she paused abruptly
and again took up the note, turning it
over in her hands: the glory of her
splendid hair rippling far down the
gleaming satin of bare, sleek shoulders
and "slim, "rounded arms, model for a
Venus, framing the rich face, through |
whose flushed olive burned eyes of fiery
blackness. , , . ..
-Dale Everett!” she said in a hard, bit- j
ter voice the world never heard. "Poor
child! she'd have me think 'tis he! 1 j
was never so near such a mistake before j
But, if she spoke truth to Dale, why
should her last words be to him? But
now I know "the charm of woven paces
and of waving hands!' What is tiie
worth of knowing, though?"
She stood erect, the light, soft drapery
emphasizing her perfection of curve and
dark feature. With eyes gleaming into
space she raised her hand in menacing
gesture, defiant, uncanny, suggestive of
a Pythoness in pose and in regard. As
she stood thus wheels ground the gravel
on the drive below, a carriage rolled to
the door and stopped. With a start
Edith came back to herself and to the
present. She shot a quick glance through
the blinds just as a dignified, well pre
served man alighted and turned to assist
a stylish girl and the venerable bishop of
tiie diocese.
Edith's red lips parted in a strange
laugh us she turned once more to her
toilet . - . -a
-The Minotaur is ready.” she said.
•And the Sacrifice? Her last word—her
last thought—is for another. ‘ Tis well
to be off with the old lovef Bah! and
she thinks to blind me!" Again the low
laugh came, unmerry, threatening.
“When Vivien had gained the chann
she cried, •Oh, fool!’ and all the forest
echoed, •Fool!’- And now to dress!’
