And let me go out Into the fields and pick 'em myself like Maud Muller o- Marie Antoinette or any of those make-believe rustic gals." ' •; ,In her French-heeled slippers and her filmy silk stockings she went out into the rich black furrows of the fields, Dirk carrying the basket. "Asparagus,"'-. ; she ordered first. Then, "But where Is it? Is that it!" "You dig for. it, Idiot," said Dirk, stooping, and taking from his basket the queerly curved sharp knife or spad used for 'cutting the asparagus shoots. "Cut the shoots three or four Inches below tlie':surface." "Oh, let me do it!"

Her marriage was a great mistake and she knew it For the war, coming in; 1914, a few months after her wedding, sent the Hempel-Arnold interests sky-rocketing Millions of pounds of American beef and pork were shipped to Europe. In two years the Hempel fortune was greater than it. ever had been. Pauln was up to her eyes In relief work for Bleeding Belgium. Dirk had not seen her in months. She telephoned him unexpectedly one Friday afternoon in his office at Hollis & Sprague's. "Come out and spend Saturday and Sunday • with us, won't you?

Chapter XII In town Dirk lived in a large front room, and alcove on the tMrd floor of a handsome old-fashioned three-storyand-basement house.. He used the front room as a living room, the alcove as a bedroom. He and Selina had furnished It together, discarding all of the room's original belongings except the bed, a table, and one fat comfortable faded, old armchair whose brocade surface hinted a past grandeur. When he had got his books ranged In open shelves along one wall, soft-shaded lamps on table and desk, the place looked" more than livable; lived • In. During the process of furnishing Selina got into -the way of coming into town for a day or two to prowl the auction rooms and the second-hand stores. She' had a genius for this sort of thing; hated the'spick-and-span varnish and veneer of the fiew furnitureto be got In the regular, way. • She enjoyed these rare trips into town; made a holiday of them. Dirk would-take her to the theater and she would sit entranced. Strangely enough, considering the lack of what the world calls romance and adventure In her life, she did not like the motion pictures. "AH the difference in the world," she would say, "between the movies ond the thrill I get out of a play at the theater. My, yes! Like fooling with paper dolls when you could be playing with a real live baDy."% The day was'marvelously mild for March In Chicago. Spring, usually so coy In this region, haa flung herself at them head first! As the nwssirp revolviag door of Dirk's office building fanned him Into the street be saw Paula In her long low sporting roadster at the curb. She'was dressed In black.
