' Helena Christy had to hold her toq on with both hands. Iler cheeks ai lips were as rod as June roses. Son chiffon ribbons blew out from und< her furs and flapped across her con panlon's face. They had the faint scci of some flower or other. Whatever I was, It was the scent he loved best 1 the world. But If either the woman or the per fume awakened any sentiment In bin the expression of tHon. Kelsie Sid dons did not show it. His handsome, manly faco wore the aspect of stern restraint habitual to him.
