"Well/ - ,ye said with a comfortable
f!?h, as she drifted onto the divan.
"Thank goodness, we’re alone at last!”
“Illona. you must go at onee!” he said.
In his cold, precise tones.
"Go!" she echoed, looking up at him
in surprise.
"Yes '
t.-!td, fiisging herself off the
d”.an and picking up her hat off a chair
with a vicious slap, “your everlasting
work' Well, I’ll come back later—about
midnight.”
“Illona. you must not come back.”
"Not come back!” she repeated, slowly
and wonderingly, as she stared with
great round eyes at his cold, impassive
face There was a little silence and then
she broke out bitterly: "I knew' It’s
that man! " she pointed to the door
through which Joshakawa had so recent
ly vanished. "You’re always this way
after he has been here As if you didn’t
have enough to worry you with that old
kill-joy hanging over you like an under
taker! Well, I'll come back later, any
way!”
“Illona. you must never return!”
The woman gave a quick gasp and
took' one swift stride toward him.
"What”’ she exclaimed in a low voice.
Then. "I—l don't think I understand
you."
He looked into her eyes with eyes that
told nothing.
."You must leave at. once and never /re
turn"' he repeated as dispassionately as
if he were dismissing a servant.
"Why—why! Why—-what’s the mat
ter”’ she stammered, in a low voice, her
bosom beginning to heave.
"It. would be better not to go into that,
he said, coldly. “It is enough—you must
leave at once and never return!"
The woman crept nearer to him and half
held out her hands, tearfully, pleadingly
“Tokoramo!” she exclaimed, in a voice
barely above a whisper. "You are jok
ing!"
A Woman’s Rage.
He looked at her In away that left no
doubt on that point. "You must go, Il
lona'"
Her eves began to flash.
'"Why?” she demanded, her little white
teeth clinched and her face as white as
her teeth
"I do not wish to quarrel with you 1
would be kind to the end—this is the •
end' I ask you to go at once."
"But—why:, why?”
“I do not care to say. Go!"
"But." she cried, with proud anger. '
“you can not look at me like that and
say such things—and not tell me why!
“It is better so.” he said again, with ,
no change in his cold, impersonal tone.
“I would be kind to the end. Go, 11- I
Iona!"
,A touch of hectic color appeared in- I
stantly in the woman’s cheeks. Her eyes
biased.
“Do you think I will be cast oft like this ,
—like a worn-out coat? Ah. no, no! she i
exclaimed, with a sudden softening, creep- i
Ing toward him. "You don't want to make i
me angry. Tell me what has happened
—what Is wrong? Am 1 not your Illona .
Have I not waited all through the even- •
ing for you with my heart In my throat
In there.*” She pointed to the divan.
“Did I not lie there, throbbing with love
and sympathy, while you sat here an.!
worked?” Her voice broke for an in
stant. "Have I not been your quiet, com- ,
placant slave, helping you in every way
von would let me? And now you say I
ntust go- without a word, without a rea
son —well!" Her anger blazed up again. •
“I will not go! Do you hear?” She threw |
herself into a.chair. "I have a right to a i
little more consideration than that! 1
have had a little corner in your heart—it
has not beer much, but I have had it
And I will hold it!" He stood looking
at her without a ripple on his face, until
she sprang up with a cry that was al- ;
nwd a snarl. i
“For goodness sake, say something. ,
Don’t stand there and look at me like 1
that!”
Tokoramo turned quietly to a drawer in <
his desk and drew it open There was a .
clink of coin.
"I would be kind to the end. Illona.'' he
said 'You shall hare as much money
as you desire."
The words struck the last drop of blood
from the woman's face.
' Money,” she gasped, in a horrified
whisper
“Yes." he said, and stood expectantly
at the open drawety Illona bowed her
head and pressed both hands tightly to
ver face. "Oh!" she moaned. “You never
loved me—you never loved me' Is that,
what you think of me? Is that what you
think of me?"
He opened his lips to sneak, but she
went on without heeding.
‘ You never loved me! You never loved
me' But tonight!" She stretched out her
arm to him appealingly “Tonight—a lit
tle ago—you said you did, when we were
alrme- and I believed you! I thought that
underneath the ice you had one little
dr n of warmth—one little drop of love—
t'ha’ you had a heart. I have given you
my all! You have stripped me of my
my dreams—my all! And now
vou say I can have money—and go!”
a, swift shadow of pain passed across
the man. s face His eyes burned a little
b-’ghter as he strode swiftly up to her
and stared into her face
"Why do you lie’’" he demanded In a
low. passionate voice
"Lie! exclaimed the woman, falling
back a step before him.
"Yes. Illona—you lie! You have deceiv
ed me—and you know it!”

"No, no!” she cried.
“You have lied! You deceived me about
Lindener! Why do you lie?”

! "Oh, my love! Please”—
“Did you not deceive me?" he demand
! ed. harshly. His eyes held hers and
i stared in silence while second after sec

(•covered her face with her hands and turn-
I ed away.
I “Yes,” she whispered.
I She did not see him wince and his voice
gave no clue to the pain in his heart.
"It is enough! Go!" And he pointed
to the door. But the woman faced him
in desperation. She was fighting for
something she had wanted all her life and
had found—only to lose it in the hour
of discovery.

’ "Yes—if you will have it—l did!" she
cried. And then, in a kind of desper
ate. hopeless compassion: "Oh. you blind
one! Can't you feel the truth or are
you a man without blood —without a
soul? Are you not even alive? Can’t you
see how I have felt—how 1 have suffered?
How I loved you. whether you wanted
me to or not? I did play with Lindener!
What had I to expect from you"—her
voice broke with a sob—"but that soon
er or later you would go home and leave
me here to eat out my heart with grief
-to die of longing for you! Vou stood
first in my life—and I have rmt even stood
second in ybtirs! Anri Linriener wants to
marry me!”
“All this does no good. Illona,” he said,
coldly, when she paused for breath "I
would be kind and just—whatever you
are."

"Whatever I am!” he cried bitterly.
"Whatever I have been my love for you
has been the true thing in my life! Can't
you see that?”

Many of the questions received from contestants
are of the same sort and a few general explanations may
clear up some points.
Some do not understand what a complete set of
solutions is. A set embraces solutions of all the puz
zle pictures in the contest from one to seventy-five, in
clusive. Each contestant is permitted to send in at the
close of the contest one, two or three complete sets; but
there must be only one answer to each puzzle in any
one set. That is, you cannot have two or three guesses at,
a picture unless you send in two or three complete sets.*
No sets are to be sent in until
after the close of the contest, that
is. until the last of the 75 puzzle
pictures have been published.
Then each set must be arranged in
numerical order and forwarded to
the Contest Department, No. 20
East Alabama street.
The sets will be considered sep
arately. That is. if you send in
more than one set, your chances
of success rest entirely upon your
best set. Correct answers will not
be transferred to another in order
to make a correct set.
It is not necessary to send the
pictures with the solutions, but the
pictures may be used in arranging
the sets of answers if contestants
choose.
If more than one proverb in the
Proverb Book has exactly the
same meaning, though not quite
the same wording, either will he
considered a correct solution.
The names of the winners and
the answers to all the puzzles will
be published at the close of the
contest.
Anyone is eligible to enter the
contest at any time. There is no
age limit. It is a contest for all
persons of all stations and ages.
The out-of-town residents have the
same chance of winning as the city
residents.

contest now can obtain the back
numbers of th*e puzzle pictures
that have been published thus far,
by sending to the Contest Depart
ment the regular rates of The
Georgian, 2c. for the-- days on
which the pictures appeared.
The back numbers include the
answer blanks. A person who ob
tains a full series to date is imme
diately on an equal footing with
all persons who began when the
first puzzle was printed.
Yon may call for back numbers
or order by mail.
New contestants will find the
Proverb Book a very handy guide
to the contest. This attractive
booklet contains more than three
thousand proverbs, including all
those that will be represented by
the puzzle pictures in the competi
tion. A copy of the Proverb Book
mar be obtained by sending 30c to
the Contest Department. 20 East
Alabama street.
