"Mary â€" Mary KurnivaL" She shook hands with him when he left; she Rto<id at the door of the flat looking after him till he had diss- appeared down the long flight of stone steps. Then she went liack to the room, and cowered, shivering, over the fire. Nigel dead! Dolly dead! Mary found herself wondering if, somewhere on the other side of the mystery we call death, husband and wife had met. Such a few days had nK'asured their separation, after all, and yet â€" they had never loved each other. .She rose .stiffly when the fire had quite dieil out, and crept to bfjrd. Dire<'tly she woke in the morning she thought of the pap:^rs. Surely the truth would be known now! The litte maid brought them to her. Mary opened them with shak- ing fingers. But only la.'^t night's new.s, with a few added detiiils, was printed. But as the day dragged away fur- ther details crept out. A brief list of pa.ssengers and crew was pub- lished at the offices of the shippinjr company, where .Mary, waiting wearily, hour after hour, watched] th;> slowly added names with hag- gard eyes. .Somehow all her anger and bitter- ness against Nigel's wife was van- ishing-wiped out by the merciless hanil of De.ith. And then she saw her name, and that of the man she had married, go up at the end of that short, incotn- p'ete list: "Durham (or Dunham), Mr. and .Mrs. Rolu'rt drowned." She never knew how she got out of the office. She felt as if she were wa'king in space. For the moment .Mary's heart was dead and incapable of further suffer- ing. She felt as if she had reached the ^ni\ of her tether of endurance, and nothing mattered any more. There were letters waiting for her when she got back to the flat, but she let them lie on the table un- opened. She had forgotten David Hretherton and her own miserable in- decision in the horror of this fresh tragedy. It was only hours after their ar- rival that Mary opened those let- ters. One was a brief ucknow'edg- ment from the owner of the flat in loply to her own intimation that she wished to leave; and the other- .Mary turned it over dully. .She did not know the writing; but the post- mark Her heart be<tt a little faster as she saw that. .She broke open the flap. T'he pa|)er was < xpensive. and em- lioBsed with a heading- "The Red Orange." "My dear child" (it Iw-gan), "I>a- vid tells me that he has asked you to come here and live with us, so I am just writing to assure you of my very hi-arty welcome, fwth for your own sake and dear Nigel's.

By the ear.y post he had heard from David to the trffect that he had arranged for his brother's widow to come to Red Grange. "... Wo can but see how it works" {bo he wrote). "Aunt Flor- ence is quite willing for the experi- ment to bo made. She entirely agrees with my that we ought to do every- thing in our power to help her now Nigel is gone. . . ." "It's a mistake â€" I'm sure it's a mistake," Fisher said across the breakfast-table to his sister. "David hasn't seen the girl, and I havi«|. I'm sure he'll regret having taken such a step." "He can always send her away," said Dora idly. She was breakfa.sting in a loose teagown, and her hair was carelessly dressed.

'M shouldn't think David would suit her, either, if she's what you describe. She'll find the Red Grange dull, and David uninteresting." Monty laughed rather ruefully. "If she does, she'l' be too clever to let him know it. She struck me as being the sort of woman who would sell her soul for money and luxury. (.)h, no! I should say she'll settle her.self there quite permanently. It's a pity. I told David what 1 thought about it; but you know what he is once he gets an idea into his head.

This vital 'qnestlou has been decided after due deliberation by an English justice. In this ca.-e the man had Jilted llie girl and she had obtalnd damags for breacli of promise. The Jury expressed the opinion ihai In these circumstances Uie ring should bo returned. The Court look a differ- en< view. "If an engiisement ring," It said, "be regarded as a pledge or de- lK>8lt for Ihe ^llfllmellt ot a contract, a person who wrongly refuseti to carry out the bargain would lose the de- [KXitt." This doctrine seems ' to be legally sound, however objectionable it may be to aentlmeut. For marriage is essentially a contract In the eyes of the State, no matter how fiercely the flame of love may bum. If it Is the girl who Jilts the man then the obligation to return the ring falls on her. Thus the Court pro- nounces, and thus custom has ruled. .Most per.-ons would agree that the keeping of the ring in such conditions argues a lack of delicacy. Is It a mere hoop of gold anil stone'.' â- 'Ittob gifts wax pt>or when givers grow unkind." .\ffectIon that ends In separation sug- gests oblivion rather than remem- brance.
