Copyright, 1912, by the New York Even ing Journal Publishing Company. '"Well,” she said with a comfortable sigh, as she drifted onto the divan. “Thank goodness, we’re alone at last!” "Illona, you must go at once!” he said, In his cold, precise tones. “Go!” she echoed, looking up at him in surprise “Yes.” “Oh." she cried, flinging herself off the divan 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. Sjlowly and woaderlngly, as she stared with great round eyes at his cold, impassive face. There was a little silence and then she broke out bitterly: “I know! 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, nleadingly. “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 eyes 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 I 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 tfell me why!” "It is better so,” he said again, with no change in his eold, impersonal tone. “I would be kind to the end. Go, Il lona!" A touch of hectic color appeared in stantly in the woman's cheeks. Her eyes biased. “Do you think I will be cast off like this —like a worn-out coat? Ah, no. no!” she exclaimed, with a sudden softening, creep ing toward him. “You don’t want to make me angry. Tell me what has happened —What is wrong? Am I not your Illona? Have J not waited all through the even ing for you with my heart in my throat— -1 in there'” She pointed to the divan. “Did I not lie there, throbbing with love and sympathy, while you sat here a.nd -- worked ’" Her voice broke for an in stant. “Have I not been your quiet, com p'scant slave, helping you in every way you would let me? And now you say I must go—without a w’ord, without a rea gon—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 little • more consideration -than that! I have had a little corner in your heart—ft has not been much, but I have had it! Arid 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 most a snarl. “Eer goodness sake, say something' Don't stand there and look at me like 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 have 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 drawer. Illona bowed her head and pressed both hands tightly to her 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 Ups to speak, 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 alone--and I believed you! 1 thought that underneath the ice you had one little drop of warmth —one little drop of love— that you had a heart. 1 have given you my all' Y'ou have stripped me of my thoughts, my dreams —my all! And now you say I can have money—and go!" A swift shadow of pain passed across the man's face. His eyes burned a little brighter as he strode swiftly up to her f 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! Y'ou have deceiv * ed me—and you know it!"

Please"— “Did you not deceive me?" he demand ed. harshly. His eyes held hers and they stared in silence while second after sec ond slipped away. At last she suddenly covered her face with her hands and turn ed away. “Yes," she whispered. She did not see him wince and his voice gave no clue to the pain tn his heart. "It is enough! Go!"

Can't you feel the triith—or are you a man without blood—without a soul? Are you not even alive? Can't you see how I have felt—how I have suffered? How I loved you! whether you wanted me to op not?
