He did not look back as Miss lavis closed the door behind him ; their eyes hud not met ; but he understood that she had comprehended him fully. Today he would be away from the Santoine house, and away from the guards who watched him, for at least four hours, under no closer espionage than that of Avery; this offered opportunity the first opportunity he had hail for com munication between him and his friends outside the house. He went to his room and made some slight changes in his dress; he came down then to the library, found a bool; and settled himself to read. Toward noon Avery looked in on him there anil rather constrainedly prof fered his invitation. Eaton accepted, and after Avery had gone to get ready. Eaton put away his hook. Fifteen minutes later, hennng Avery's motor purring outside, Eaton went into the hall ; a servant brought his coat and hat. and taking them, he went out to the motor. Avery appeared a moment later, with Harriet Santoine. She stood looking after them as they spun down the curving drive and onto the pike outside the grounds ; then she went back to the study. She dismissed Miss Davis for the day, and taking the typewritten sheets and some other papers her father had asked to have read to him, she went up to him. Basil Santoine was alone and awake. "What have you, Harriet;" he asked. She .-at down and glancing through the papers in tier hand, gave him the subject of each ; then at his direction she began to read them aloud.. As she finished the third page, he inter rupted her. 'Hits Avery taken Eaton to the country club as 1 ordered?" 'Yes." 'T shall want you to go out (here in the afternoon: I would trust your observation more than Avery's to de termine whether Eaton has been used to such surroundings." She rend another page, then broke off suddenly. "Has Ionald asked you anything today, Father?" "In regard to what?" "I thought last night lie seemed (lis turbed about my relieving him of part of his work." "I Ms! urbod ? In what way?" She hesitated, unable t" define even to herself the impression Avery's man ner hail made on her. "I understood he was going to ask you to leave it still in his hands." ' He has not done so yet." '"Then probably I fas mistaken." She read again for half an hour after lnnchoi Lad brought. "Now you' lio blind m; SLe pu away in the ami going , O-cssed care As site d: passed the the men it: :o-:i.

Harriet drove up and stopped beside the bar rier; people hailed her from all sides, and for a moment the practice was stopped as the players trotted over to speak to her. Then play began again, and she had the opportunity to look for Eaton. Her father, she knew, had .rAructed Avery that Katon was to be introduced as his guest; but Avery evidently had either carried out these instructions in a purely mechanical manner or had not wished Eaton to be with others unless he himself was by; for Harrjet discovered Eaton ) By William MacHarg Edwin Balmer Copyright by Little, Brown ani Company standing off by himself. She waited till he looked toward her, then sig naled him to come over. She got down, .and they stood together follow ing the play. "You know polo?" she questioned him, as she saw the expression of appreciation in his face as a player daringly "rode-ofi" an antagonist and saved a "cross." She put the ques tion without thought before she rec ognized that she was obeying her fa ther's instructions. "I understand the game somewhat," Eaton replied. "Have you ever played?" "It seems to deserve its reputation as the .summit of sport," he replied. He answered so easily that she could not decide whether he was evad ing or not ; and somehow, just then, she found it impossible to put the simple question direct again. "Good ! Good, Don !" she cried en thusiastically and clapped her hands as Avery suddenly raced before them, caught the ball with a swinging, hack handed stroke &nd drove it directly toward his opponent's goal. Instantly whirling his mount, Avery raced away after the ball, and with another clean stroke scored a goal. Everyone about cried out In approbation. "Hi's very quick and clever. Isn't he?" Harriet said to Eaton. Eaton nodded. "Yes; he's by all odds the most skillful man on the field, I should say." The generosity of the praise im pelled the girl, somehow, to qualify it. "But only two others really have played much that man and that." "Yes, I picked them as the experi enced ones," Eaton said quietly. "The others two of them, at least are out for the first time, I think." They watched the rapid course of the ball up and down the rield, the scurry and scamper of the ponies after it, then the clash of a melee. Two ponies wont down, and their riders were thing.

It was four; but T router i!i:ui so phi inly it was nor fear of bodily hurt that she moved instinctively toward him in sympathy. He looked swiftly at Avery, then at her, then away. He seemed to fear alike accepting or re fusing to play ; suddenly he made a decision. "I'll play." He started instantly away to the dressing rooms; a few minutes later, when he rode onto the field. Harriet was conscious that. In some way, Ea ton was playing a part as he listened to Avery's directions. Avery appointed himself to oppose Eaton wherever possible, besting him in every contest for the ball ; but she saw that Donald, though he took it upon himself to show all the other players where they made their mis takes, did not offer any instruction to Eaton. One of the players drove the ball clo.se to the barrier directly be fore Harriet; Eaton and Avery raced for it, neck by neck. Eaton by better riding gained a little; as they came up, she saw Donald's attention was not upon the ball or the play; in stead, he was watching Enron closely. And she realized suddenly that Don ald had appreciated as fully as her self that Eaton's clumsiness was a pretense. It was no longer merely polo the two were playing; Donald, suspecting or perhaps even certain that Eaton knew the game, was try ing to make him show ir, and Eaton was watchfully avoiding this. Just in front of her, Donald, leaning forward, swept the ball from in front of Ea ton's pony's feet. For a few moments the play was all at the further edge of the field; then the ball crossed with a long curving shot and came hopping and rolling along the ground close to where she stood. Donald and Eaton raced for it. "Stedman !" Avery called to a team mate to prepare to receive the ball after he had struck it; and he lifted his mallet to drive the ball away from in front of Eaton. But as Avery's Eyes club was coming down, Eaton, like a Hash and apparently without lifting his mallet at all. caught the ball a sharp, smacking stroke. It leaped like a bullet, straight and irue, inward the goal, and before Avery could turn. Ea ton was alter il and upon it, but ho did not have to strike again; it bound ed on and on between the goal posts, while together w ith I he applause for the stranger arose a laugh at the ex pense of Avery. I'.ut as Donald halted before her, Harriet saw that he was not angry or discomfited, but was smiling triumphantly to himself; and as she called in praise to Eaton when he came close again, she discovered in him only dismay tit what he had done. The practice ended, and the players rode away. She waited in the club house till Avery and Eaton came up from the dressing rooms. Donald's triumphant satisfaction seemed to have increased; Eaton was silent and preoccupied. Avery, hailed by a group of men, started away ; as he did so, he saluted Eaton almost derisively. Eaton's return of the salute was open ly hostile. She looked up at him keenly, trying unavailingly to deter mine whether more had taken place between the two men than she herself had witnessed. . "You had played polo before and played It well," she charged. "Why did you want to pretend you hadn't?" He made no reply. As she began to talk of other things, she discovered with surprise that his manner toward i !

The men rose, as she moved toward them, Ea ton with i.er; she introduced Katou; ( a chair was pushed forward for her. , and two of the girls made a place for Eaton on the window seat between theni. As tl'.oy seated tiiemse' e s and were served. Eaton's participation in the polo practice wa:; the subject of con versation. She found, as she tried to talk with her nearer neighbors, that she was listening instead to this more general conversation which Eaton had joined. She saw that these people had accepted him as one of their own sort to the point of jesting with him about his "lucky" polo stroke for a beginner; his manner toward them was very different from what it had been just now to herself; he seemed at ease and unembarrassed with them. Due or two of the girls appeared to have been eager even anxious to meet him; and she found herself oddly resenting the attitude of these girls. Her feeling was indefinite, vague; i; made her Hush and grow uncomfort able; to recognize dimly that there was in it some sense of a proprietor ship of her own in him which took alarm at seeing other girls attracted by him; but underneath it was her un easiness at his new manner to herself, which hurt because she could not ex plain it. As the party finished their tea, she looked across to him. "Are you ready to go, Mr. Eaton?" she asked. "Whenever Mr. Avery is ready." "You needn't wait for him unless you wish ; I'll drive you back," she offered. "Of course I'd prefer that, Miss San toine." They went out to her trap, leaving Donald to motor back alone. As soon as she had driven out of the club grounds, she let the horse take its own gait, and she turned and faced him. "Will you tell me," she demanded, "what have I done this afternoon to make you class me among those who oppose you?" "What have you done? Nothing, Miss Santoine." "I5ut you are classing me so now." "Oh, no," he denied so unconvlnc- ingly that she felt he was only put ting her off. Harriet Santoine knew that what had fitl racted her friends to Eaton was their recognition of his likeness to themselves; but what had im pressed her in seeing him with them was his difference.

' "I'm afraid I don't quite under- stand." The rnechanicalness of his answer ; reassured her. "I mean, Mr. Eaton" j she forced her tone to be light "Miss 1 Eurden was not as attractive to you '. as she might have been, because thr j has been some other woman lu your ! life whose memory or or the ez- j pectatlon of seeing whom again pro tected you." , "Has been? Oh, you mean before." j "Yes, of course," she answered has- ! tily. ! "No none." he replied simply. "It's rather ungallant, Miss Santoine, but I'm afraid I wasn't thinking much ' about Miss Eurden." She felt that his denial was the . truth, for his words confirmed the im- : press! on she had had of him the nijht before, i-he drove or:--or rather let 1 the horse take them on for a few ! moment duriug which neither spoke.

It was only Avery's car on the way home; nit Harriet had jumped a little in memory of the day before, and her companion's head had turned quickly toward the car. She looked up at him swiftly; his Hps were set and his eyes gazed steadily ahead after Avery, and he drew a little away from her. A catch in her hrearh almost an audible gasp surprised her, and she fought a warm Impulse which hud ail bur placed her hand on his. "Will you tell me something, Miss Santoine'.-" he asked suddenly.

They had reached the front of th house, and a groom sprang to take the horse. She let Katon help her down; as they entered the house, Avery who had reached the house (inly a few moments before them was still in the hall. And again she was startled in the meeting of the two men by Avery's triumph and the swift flare of defiance on Eaton's face. She changed from her afternoon dress slowly. As she did so. she brought swiftly in review the events of tin lay. Chiefly it was to the polo practice and to Eaton's dismay at his one ivinarkable stroke that her mind went. Had Donald recognized in Eaton something more than merely a good player trying to pretend igno rance of the game? The thought sud denly checked and startled her. for how many great polo players were there in America? Were there a hun dred? Fifty? Tw eiity-tive? She did not know; but she did know that there were so few of them that their names and many of the partieu'.a rs of their lives were known to every follower of the sport. (TO BE CON'TINCF-D.)
