It seemed to him suddenly shameful that she should still be beautiful, and, because he was afraid of being a soft fool and speaking to her gladly he sprang up and crouched above her and snarled out dreadful things — words that he had never known, he knew. "Go back to your lover !" he finished, "your rich lover! I'm not wealthy enough to afford to buy beautiful ladies' love !" She stood quite still, looking away with wide eyes of horror. But curiously enough the horror and the shame in them seemed to be not for herself but for him. He felt an immeasurable self -rage, as tho he had struck at something helpless, unprotected. He wanted to hate her, but instead he hated himself. The coat had slipped down. On her bare shoulders he saw a faint bruise. He could have killed, then. There was a sound at the door. Dick turned and saw Slater Holcomb in the room. Thick waves of shadow blurred the figure but he began to move toward him slowly, craftily. Then, as at a great distance he heard Holcomb' s voice — — "Wait ! Before you kill me, Hastings, suppose you listen and see whether it's worth while ! Ask your wife, man — ask her whether I've done her any wrong or not !" Dick Hastings choked out incoherent words, "Scoundrel— the boat! All night — you cant get away from me by lying — " "The captain misunderstood orders," Holcomb said earnestly, "and when I ordered him back into dock the tide was against us and we couldn't make it. I admit it sounds incredible, but your wife has done an incredible thing. She showed me something I hadn't seen for years — my conscience ! It was a pretty poor one, a puny little undeveloped thing, but it saved us both — and you too, man ! You can kill me, of course, but what's the use going to the chair for it if it isn't necessary?" The shadows cleared a little. "Margot, is it true?" Dick grated, "is this man telling the truth, or shall I kill him?" "He is telling the truth," said Margot Hastings slowly, "I went to him, Dick, to get him to back the invention. I wasn't afraid to go because I believed he had a conscience, and I proved it ! He is going to finance us. He is going to be our friend "■ He knew that she spoke the truth, yet her eyes ! They were still wide and horrorfilled. And then he knew the reason. "Margot !" he groaned, "my Margot ! And I doubted you !" He slid to his knees, hiding his head against her dress, shaken with a man's difficult sobs. And seeing them so, Slater Holcomb turned and slipped quietly from the room and left them together. The beautiful face above the bent head was twisted with spiritual travail, out of which forgiveness was born. She had given everything she had for this man, and he had taken her white love and cast the mud of doubt over it, and torn it with dreadful words, more dreadful thoughts. Yet she could forgive. It was the mother in her that lifted his head, and drew him up and laid her cheek against his cheek. "You can forgive me, Hon'? You can still love me?" he begged her, "everything's going to be as it was before?" "Everything — as it was — before — " she answered, and thought she spoke the truth. But she was wrong. Two things never again would be the same. The bridelook was gone forever from her eyes ; and never again would either of them say as of old, boastingly, "such things couldn't happen to us — we're different]" Witk Browning at trie Movies By Marguerite Stevens Ethel Barry more "That woman's face, It's calm simplicity of grace."

McCarthy She is lithe as a willow in springtime That plays with the wind like a fay; She is lithe and slim like the willow When June will be gone in a day — But whose are the arms that enfold her When the dusk of the woods is grey? Yon hulking brute of a "hero" In the mimic photo-play. Her dimples are daughters of laughter, Of laughter fit for a queen, And they tempt to a thousand kisses And shackle the heart, I ween But who shall taste of the kisses When the woods like spring are green? Yon "hero" that plays in the movies. When they come to the final scene!
