PURSE •'THE PRINTER.” PRINTING A. OF ALL DESCRIPTIONS 16 1-2 E. MITCHELL ST. ATLANTA, GA. had the singular fact of making Philip undeniably and astonishingly happy. He asked himself. Indeed, why the fact that Meredith was Olrelda In disguise should render him so absurdly Joy ous. He pretended to hlmsrif that there was no logic In the feeling of pleasure. But that waa pretence merely. He knew In the depth of his being that his Joy waa (irmly baaed in the logic of hts heart. He perceived now why he had liked Meredith from the moment of their first meeting, and why he had al ways been conscious of an apparently strange Instinct to protect and assist Meredith. The disguise had deceived his brain, but It had not deceived the Instinctive. Inarticulate port of him. "So you are Miss Pollegfen?" he questioned, with a smile, the power of whose persuasiveness he did guess. "I am Mary Pollexfen," waa the half ahy reply. Of course she was a woman! spite her clothes, she was for Philip, as she faced him there In the lltt e green, confined office with its desk and ledgers, the moat Intensely feminine woman that the world contained. How came It that hts Intellectual apparatus had never discerned her sex? How came It—but hts mind waa full queries. '■** I* very strange." said Philip, that I did not recognize you aa Olral- da. Because I had seen your portrait at the Physique Club, and what i more, the portrait had positively haunt ed me.’* do not think It very strange, after all, Mary Pollexfen answered. "You see I am pretty expert ot making up. Seven years ago I played nothing but principal boy’—on account of my height, I suppose. So I was well used to men's clothes. And then the scar ab solutely changes my face.” "But where did you get that awful wound ?" "I paint It each morning,” Mary Pol. lexfen explained, falnty smiling at Phil Ip's astonishment. "It waa by accident a long time ago that I found out how a scar across the cheek like that seem ed to alter the position of the cheek bone and make all my face different." "Then you can wash it o(f at any timer’ "Certainly." "You relieve me Immensely, Miss Pollexfen." Philip sighed. "Unfortunately," said she, "nly hair won't grow quite aa easily aa 1 can wash off that scar.” There waa a significant pause. "And now. Miss Pollexfen," said Phil Ip courageously, "don't you think we had better come to business at once?" "Business?" she echoed the word, aa If startled. Yes," he said, "don't you think you had better tell me why .you are here In disguise. I know you must be In great sorrow. I guess you are in great difficulty. And I am Just as sure as I am of anything that 1 can help you. "How ran you help me?" she stem, mered timidly, gazing zelf-conscloutly at the desk. I shall be able to answer that ques. tlon better when you have talked to me a little. Talk to me. Tell me. I would be willing to do a great deal for you, a very great deal. I’ve no inten tion of Informing you that I would cheerfully sacrifice my life to save your little finger from harm. Because If I began In that strain I should feel an awful ass. Still—” he nodded hla head several times quickly as though to emphasize his words—“you may command me." He looked at her steadily. "Really? Her manner of uttering that single word enclmnted Philip. In her tone there was something of entreaty, some thing of an unserlous and delicate In. credibility, something of a challenge, and something queenllke. He seem ed to see In her at length the wor. Hhiped beauty of the stage—not at all spoilt by Incense and homage, but yet aware of the potency of her charm, and accustomed to the vows of devotees. "Really!" he Insisted. They exchanged a glance. And that glance established their relations. In the brief Instant of Its duration each formed a resolve, the one to trust, the other to shield, and the resolve waa momentous, definite and final. Mnry Pollexfen sat down. "Can we talk here 7” she demanded suspiciously, looking at the door. "Where else con we talk?" Philip asked. "The door Is shut. I’ll keep an eye on It. Now, will you telf m why you are here In this disguise?" "I came to look after my father, 1 said Mary. "I came to watch over him, Perhaps you will say It was a childish Idea, but—” "And a disguise was nscessary for •hat?" • . . . . "Yes. If my poor father had had the slightest Idea that I was meddling In his life he would have left the place.* "You were not quite on good terms, was that It?" Mary Pollexfen agreed with a gest ure. "We had quarreled," she said, we had not spoken to each other for sev eral years. I was very sorry—very sor ry to upset him and very sory that he would not see me—but I could not help It” "Yes?" Philip encouraged her. She was now on the opposite side of the desk from Philip, Idly and nerv ously pleating a piece of paper Into the form of a fan. Then she leaned her head on one hand. f had always stage,” she proceeded, wanted to go on the stage. The stage was In my blood. But my father hated the stage. Perhaps he had a cause to. He left me at school In Southend and went on a voyage, and when he came back from hla voyage I waa an actress on tour with a provincial com pany. Not a No. 1 company, Mr. Mae ters, but a wretched little company do ing fit-up towns. I hadn't written to my father to tell him. I dared not. At least, perhaps I dared; but somehow I could not put the words on the paper. So It was a terrible surprise for him when he did come back and learnt the news. I got a cousin ot ours to tell him.” "Your mother was dead?" "Yes. She died when I was born. Just Imagine my position. At 15 I had had enough of school—too much! I could have gone with my father on hla Ip, perhaps. But though my father jd I uced to be good friends, and I liked the sea pretty well, I could never have been reconciled to the life on board a tramp steamer. Only my father's wish to be all In all to me could have made him dream of such a thing. I was obliged to live some where then. I could have lived with some cousins, but even at IS I had ex tremely strong likes and dislikes, and the prospect of living with my cousins didn’t appeal to me a little bit, though •re perfectly tolerable aa ac« decidedly,”, said Philip. •'You see that, don't you?" aha cried raising her voice, and, as It were, clutching for hla sympathy. "You see that? Well, I wanted to earn my llv. Ing and I wanted to start at once. Peo ple such aa I don't choose their careers. Their careers are decided when they nre bom. Mine waa. Nothing could have kept me off the stage. I was very sorry for my father's sorrow, and I think I may say I didn't let htB an- 5 er make me angry. He couldn't un- erstand. How could he be expected to understand? Supposing that I had suggested to him that he should g' up his ship and force himself to go the stage, he would have thought I was mad. But that would have been exact ly the same thing as his asking me to give up the stage and voyage with him or live as a lodger with the Sldgwlcks— those are my cousins. I tried to ex plain that to him, but he couldn't see It. He couldn't. He talked about wo man's sphere, the dear old thing!"* "Then you fought out the question at an Interview?" Mary Pollexfen gave a little shudder. "Yea," she said. “My company hap pened to be at Winchester while hla ship waa taking In cargo at Southamp. Ion. He came to see me. I remember I waa lodging In a little room In the road up the steep hill out of Winches ter—I forget Its name. Yes, we fought It out That was the worst day of my life, except the day after my father's death. And I was only 15. I was only 16 and he was over 60. Think of It! Now he Is dead, something soft In my heart hints that perhaps I ought to have given way. But- no) No! It had to be. There are things stronger than affection. I loved my father. My father loved me. But we parted. He might have used force -with me. He very nearly did use force with the man ager of the company. I won't tell you what he said when we parted. No one will ever know that except me. Now, I think It over I see I must have had extraordinary Individual force, even at that age—call It obstinacy—to withstand him. He returned to his ship. I went on with my business as the least Important member of a tour ing company of no Importance at all." "Why!" aald Philip, "it waa trag edy! ” That's Just what It was," said Mary, "and it often happens that In a real tragedy nobody is to blame—and every one suffers." "Didn’t you see him again?” 'I made two attempts for peace. The first was when I waa 18. I saw him once. I insisted on seeing him. It waa useless, absolutely useless! Cap tains live very solitary lives, I think, and that Influences them. My poor father's prejudices against the stage and me only increased as he grew old er. Our last direct Interview, four years ago, ended everything between us. We drifted apart, as they say— utterly. I found It Impossible even to keep In touch with his movements. In fact, I lost him. I didn't know the “And you have no other relatives?' "Yes,” said Mary Pollexfen, low tone, drawing her hand nervously along the table. 'There was my fath. er*s brother, my pncle—Walter Pollex. fen. But—" "But what?" Mary's eyes moistened. "It Is Uncle Walter who”— She stopped short with straight, evidently collecting her forces. "I must explain to you about that man," aha recommenced. "Althougl have never seen him—at any rate F not sure that I have ever seen him—I seem to know him Intimately." ’How ao?” Prom my father's descriptions. And, later, from what the Sldgwlcks used tell me. Walter Pollexfen waa years younger than my father. He very precocious Indeed aa a child, must have taken after him, as regards being precocious—certainly I dldn'i take after my father. I think the chib dron ot elderly parents are ften very precocious. And he was very clever, too. And extremely violent. He was one of those boys who become men at once. At ten years of age, my fath er ueed to say, no one could manage him. No one could do anything with him at all. He waa expelled from three school* at Southend before he was 21. He would listen to nobody. He once locked another boy up In a wooden shed and aet fire to It, because the boy wouldn't give him half an ap pie. And It was a mere chance that the boy wasn't burnt to death. Ha would have been If he hadn't pushed penknife and everything he bad In hie pockets under the door of the shed os a ransom. That was the sort of youth my uncle was. He had no mercy on animals at all. And yet my father said that he could be charming when he wanted to. At sixteen he married a woman very nearly old enough to hla mother—ran away with b e r- He had a thick mustache at fourti "An Interesting young man I" Philip commented. "Do you think eo?” said Mary. "The stage was hla passion, as it’a mine. I took after him In that. And It was because of my uncle’s con the stage that my father Only uncle got tired of the stage pretty soon, and I expect that I shall, too.

He was very'well known In the profession. The profession thought even more fact, _ name of his new ship. I didn't know why he had left the old one. I didn’t even know If he waa alive. That shows bow'relatives may'get separat ed, mentally and physically. I never spoke of him. I fancy most of my friends took ms for an orphan. Of course If 1 am to be perfectly honest must admit that I was wrapped up In my own career. And habit Is so strong.

Then 1 didn't know where to send them ta— And—and—don't you now think Its very sad. Mr. Masters, such a thing as I am telling you?" The change In her lovely voice was swift and dramatic. Philip felt the lump In his throat He could not speak. He nodded. "These cousins of yours," he man aged to say at length. "They could do nothing to get the captain to alter his views?" Nothing. They were nice, quiet, or dinary people. But they would as soon have dared to come between my fath er and me as go Into—Into a den of lions. They were afraid of both of us. They still live at Southend, or rather, tust out of Southend. I doubt If they tave heard of this affair even yet.'

It was supposed to be an accident. But according to what people say. It wasn’t an accident at all. However, all this was 'blrty years ago. Then he went America." “And what became of hla wife?" “He deserted her when he waa elgh teen. But Jutt before he Went to America he found her again, and he made her go with him—I suppose be cause she had come Into some money. And then she died. In Cleveland.'' "Died!" "It Is supposed that he killed her. I say 'It Is supposed'—no one except my uncle esn be sure. Anyhow, there was a great outer}-. Father used to have cuttings of the articles that ap peared In the New York and other newspapers about the affair. Uncle had to disappear, at least he did disap pear. After that he must have traveled all over the world. He was In a revo lution In Uruguay. He had a circus In Yokohama. But my father only heard rumors of him at long Intervals. On the other hand he seemed always to know exactly where my father was. And front time to time he would write and demand money." And did he get It?" 'Ye*, he got It. It would, of course, have been better If he had not got It. But lather could never refuse him al together.

"No, but l’va heard from him." “When?" "About three weeks ago I got strange letter from him. It was ad dressed to the theater. That letter was the cause of my coming here. I will show It to you. Then you can Judge for yourself." She paused, and slowly drew a let- handed It to Philip, who opened U and read: “Dear Mary: This Is from your old Uncle Walter, whom I daresay you have heard of. Your father ta a fool, and you had better bring him to rea son, or It will be the worse for him. He's getting obstlnste In his old age.

Now he’s just got to give In. If you know anything about me, you know that candor Is my most sublime quality, and I'm candid now. I'm nothing If not candid.

"P. 8.—Your father Is or will shortly be at the Comer house, Strange street, Klngsway.” Philip folded up the letter, and gave back to Mary Pollexfen in the midst of an extraordinary silence. Of course,” said he, "knowing what you did of your uncle's character you naturally took that for a serious threat?" “I did—most certainly. I thought I would go and see my father. Then I decided to write, and I wrote. I didn't send him uncle's leltsr. I thought that might do more harm than good." "And then?" "Then I received an envelope from my father, and the envelope contained my own letter unopened, but tom across.
