what you told me that day with
that Aiasvrorth follow' that I
didn’t know what to believe. I
hecan to think 1 lust Imagined
I'd been married at all!”
just then Joyce saw Rozie
moving capably about the dining
room, and running to her, she
flung her arms lm{>ulsively about
the older woman.
“Roxle, you darling!” she
cried, "Sam told me how won-
forfttl you’ve been—”
Roxle beamed and flushed with
Vleasare. didn’t do nothing!”
she sa{d confusedly. “But, my,
it’s good to have you back, Mrs.
Packard, we’ve certainly missed
you! And now do come in to
dinner If you and Mr. Nell are
ready.”
“Where’s Dickie?” she asked
Nell, when they were seated, "1
haven’t seen him since I got
hack!”
“Oh, that’s right—must send
ter him. He’s been living with
Sam since you left. Moped about
the house so dismally that we
thought he was going to cash in,
poor chap. I couldn’t do anything
- with him. He kept looking at me
reproachfully, as if asking what
I’d done with you. It gave me
the creeps.”
“Funny little Dickie!" said
Joyce.
Conversation lagged. Joyce did
not want to ask any questions
covering the time of her absence,
thinking she might turn Neil's
thoughts toward his mother, and
cause him pain. She likewise did
not want to tell him anything
about her life in San Francisco
during that time: it now was re-
- snming the unreality of a bad
dream, and she had no wish lo
revive the memories by talking
about it. So she ate silently.
All at once she was aware that
Neil was regarding her thought
fully, with a brooding stare un
like the matter-of-factness she
remembered in him.
“Anything wrong, Neil?” she
asked nervously.
“No, dear, I ^'as just thinking
kow wonderful it was to have
you back.”

“Ob, Neil, you, muBn’t say
things like that to bm! I know
R’s only yonr klndaesE. your na
tural sweetness—Joyce’s voice
choked up, and she left the ta
ble. Nell followed her Into the
living-room.
“Wen. we won’t go Into that
just now. Frill*, if It bores you."
Joyce was about to remonstrate
with him for his misconstruction
of her words, wheif’ he went
hastily 'jn, “By the way, I found
something that’ll prrobably inter
est yru— a diary kept by you—by
Frills—beginning about the time
of our arrival home In Manzanita
after our marriage.”
"Can I see it, Nell?”
“Sure, I’ll get It, just a min
ute.” And he went rather wear
ily out of the room.
Joyce was worried at the
change in Neil. He seemed to
have lost all his enthusiasm, all
his spirit. “I hope he’s not real
ly 111.” she thought miserably.
“Of course his mother’s death
was an awful blow. Perhaps a
little time . . .” Her mind was
running along this course when
Neil came back.
“.May I look at it with you?”
he asked, "I didn’t read much of
It. Somehow it seemed — not
quite right. I thought I’d put it
away and read it with you—
when you came home.” He spoke
so quietly that Joyce barely
caught the words.
“Neil.” .she said impulsively,
pausing before she opened the
book, "I do feel at home here!”
I{e smiled, a sudden sweet
flash that warmed Joyce to the
heart, and gravely they opened
the diary between them.
It was nearly midnight when
they laid the book aside. Fasci
nated, they had read every word
of the bold handwriting that
danced over its pages, and, fas
cinated, they had suffered with
the curious, lost spirit that had
cried out her secret fears in her
journal.
"Oh, Neil, it’s so terrible!"
cried Joyce, "I knew Frills had
been n bad lot, but I never
thought of her as suffering some
how—I, never thought of her as
doing all these things deliber
ately, in a sort of crazy effort to
get back her identity—to re
member!”
"Yes." .said Neil. "I don't
know much about these things,
tint I should think the me-iicos
might explain that second blow—
the time you were thrown from
Fire Queen—as a sort of mental
snapping, due to the pitch you’d
worked yourself up to.”
Frills' diary filled in most of
the gaps in the story that Neil
had gradually pieced out that
day for Joyce. From the scatter
ed notes she learned that Frills
had been conscious of her loss of
memory, but filled with the con
viction that all at once, some
day. it would ,-ome to her whom
she was, where she came from—
her whole place of life.
“Some deep instinct,” the
diary said, “ke’Pt me from telling
anyone. I felt that I must discov
er it, must work it out, for my
self.”
And then later, came an entry
that made a very deep impres
sion on Joyce. “I know I did
wrong to marry Neil Packard
without telling him. He’s too
good a man to be treated so
meanly, but I just couldn’t tell
it. I couldn't tell him. And 1
had to marry him—not again in
a lifetime am I likely to meet a
man so surely posesslng that
which can be depended on. In
this crazy world it's something
lo know that loyally of that sort
can be secured!”
As the diary Went on, the en
tries became more and more ex
cited. ”rm cheating Neil!” FYills
cried. He’s got a right to a wife
who’s more than just a unit ex
isting for the time being! I’ve
got to get back my memory!
Perhaps drink will do it. Bring
oa tha wine caps—'I’ll try ’em!
. . Why do I take so mack
perverse pleasure in shoibklng
people around here? Maybe when
I get back my memory I’ll find I
was a small-town sebool te&cber,
or somebody wbo never bad a
cbance to express berself! Well,
I'm expressing myself all right
these days! All I’ve got to do Is
think of something reckless and
wild, to be seised with an insane
desire to do it! . .
And then, all at once, “Arthur
Maitland—ugh. how I hate him!
Why do I endure him around
me? God knows! I flirt with him
like a common s’ereet woman—
yet I love Nell! Why dO I do It?
Sometimes I feel as if it’s to try
Noll’s patience, to see how much
he really will stand from me.
There seems to be no limit to his
affections!”
“. . . I’ve gone almost the lim
it and it’s done no good! What
did I think it would do? God
knows! Nell knows—^I can see
frim his face that he knowr
there’s been too much to that af
fair between Arthur Maitland
and me. If he'd only knock me
down—a blow, they say a blow
will bring back one’s memory.
But Neil won’t—he never will.
I’ll have to kill myself first. Per
haps that horse, that surely brute
Fire Queen. But I have a charm
ed life—a charmed and a damn
ed one! How is this thing going
to end?”
And the last entry in the book,
in sprawling, blotted characters:
"I’ve been rotten over that baby
of Sylvia’s. Of course Neil wants
it brought on here. But a child j
—why should I wreck a poor
child’s life as I’m wrecking i
Neil’s? It’s better off where it is
—I’m a lost soul now.”
“Neil,” said Joyce at last,
“Neil, doesn’t It help to know
that Frills did care about you
She did love you.”
Neil did not reply to her ques
tion, and Joyce saw that he was
trembling like a leaf. “Do you
think—do you think, Joyce, that
things might come out as mother
hoped they would? Do you think
you could feel that this was
home? I shan’t bother you much
myself, but we might bring on
I Lawton's child, and do our best
I with it. between us.”
I "Oh, Neil, I feel as Frills said,
; that in this crazy world it’s some-
I thing to know that loyalty like
I yours exists! ... Do you want
I we, now, knowing all this? It’s
I been a sorry business, and it
I seems to me you’ve been the vic-
i tim!”
i "No victim about it,” he said
i shortly, “I mean—I do want
j you—it, well—what about this
■\insworth?”
: “Ainsworth — Robert Ains
worth!” Joyce suddenly had an
idea. “Neil,” she said, “I think
I see now what Robert Ains
worth felt that day! I think he
must have felt ashamed of his
part in the whole affair—^I think
he must have seen it all, have
realized what a splendid person
