Lancaster's wide.- ly read novel. ”The Law-Bringers'f Many of the scenes were filmed in the frozen Canadian northland. Mr. Barker transported his entire cast to Canada. wirere for months they on- dured severe hardships while scenes of great beauty were filmed. Through the co-operation of the Canadian government, Mr. Barker was enabled to explore and make use of many out of the way places of Canada. for exceptional shots. Thrilling realism is the keynote of “The Eternal Struggle."

He is mad about you. We cauanmthahandlknowitbo- fore he did himself. It's only— roally—tbat I'm afraid you'll be bored to death with so much shop if you don't set up one for youb self.” - “Oh. I never intend to be bored again as long as I live." Mary lattiany was a 'very shrewd woman and she determined on a bold stroke. Her suspicion liiigered but had lost its edge. Cora Dwight was deep and subtle but there was .ac doubt that she was honorable. "I shall tell you something." she laid. “but you must give me your word that you will not betray me— llot even to Lee.” Miss Dwight’s mind. not her body. gave a slight stir of uneasi- ness. But she answered warmly: ‘Of course I promise." “Very well. then. It is this. i shall never return to America. I call in a fortnight. Leo follows soon after. and we shall be married in Austria.” “But—but—his playl" Miss Dwight was too startled to not. "He must be here for rehearsals. Some one has said that plays are not written, they're rewritten. and it's pretty close to the truth." “I shall consent to his returning in time for rehearsals. Prolonged honeymoons are indiscrect. It is better to divide them into s series. I fancy the series might hold out indefinitely if adroitly spaced. Moreover, being a modern myself. I like new methods. And be will be too busy to miss me. I shall be equally busy in Vienna." "But will he consent? Lee? He's not used to having his plans made for him. He's about the most domi- acting male I know.” "I feel sure be will when the time comes. It to woman'- peculiar gift, you know. to convince the dominat- ing male that he wants what she wants." Cora laughed. But she also could turn mental somoruults. “I think it a splendid arrangement. Then we should not lose Lee altogether. for we really are devoted to him. He is an adorable creature for all his absurdities. But I can't endure the thought of losing you." “You must pay me a long visit in “onus. Many visits. I can assure you that you will find material there. under my guidance. for a really great novel." Gora's eyes sparkled. She was all artist at once. "I should like that! flow kind of you. And what a setting!" “Yes, Austria is the most inter- esting country in Europe. and the most beautiful to look at—and d0 scribe." "It will be heavenly.“ Gora made up her mind at once that she would waste so more ingenuity to stop this marriage. its modernity up pooled to her. and she foresaw new impulses to creation. “The Amerlo cas Scene." conceivably, might grow monotonous with time: and with those daily recruits bent upon describing its minutiae with the re- lentless ediciency of the camera. And with all her soul she loved beauty. With the possible excep- tion of Bavaria she knew Austria to be the darling of nature. Once more she chose to believe this woman would manage Clover- ing to his own good. and to the/sat: isfactibn of his friends. who. as she well know. were alarmed and alert. They were too polite to show it. but much of their enthusiasm for [same Zottiany bad dimmed with the knowledge that she was s sci- entific phenomenon. Fundamental- ly the brilliant creative mind is quite as conservative as the world- ly. or the Iartieuiste millions between. for they have common on. cestors and ”lumen traditions. They feared not only to lose him. moreover. but had begun to ask one another if his career would not be wrecked. Miss Dwight concluded that such an uncommon and romantic marri- age might be a spur to Clavering's genius. which might weaken in a conventional marital drama’sct in the city of New York. She rose and for the first time kissed Madame Zattiany. “It will be too perfect!" she said. “Let me visit you in summer when he is re- hearsing. He can arrange to have his firstmlgbts in September. and then write his next play in Aust: filling his time while you are ab- sorbed in politics. Heavens. what a theme! Some day I'll use it. Per- fectly disguised. of course.“ - “And I'll give you points," said Kory. laughing. She returned the other‘s embrace: but when she was alone she sighed and sank back in her chair. without picking up It" book. Miss Gora Dwight had given her something to think of! 'l'kolsst thing she wanted was s so- grlsl honeymoon. She wanted this man's companionship and his help. .3“ she had slowly been forced to ,tho conclusion that Claverlng's was a mind whose euthuslasms could only be inspired by some In of creative art: politics would never appeal to it. in her compara- tive ignorance of the «naturalised brain. she had believed that a boil- liant gifted mind could concentrate itself upon any object with equal fertility and power. but she had seen too much of the Sophisticates t00 many of his moods to cherish the illusion any longer. Pier wrighting seemed to her a con- temptible pastime compared with tho hideous facts of Life as ex- emplified in Europe. and she had restrained herself from an sum was too philosophical. possibly too fatalisiic. not to have dismissed this attitude eventually. Clsvering could not be changed. but neither could she. There would be the usual compromises. After all, of what was life made up but of com- promise? But the early glow of the wondrous dream had faded. The mistress was evidently the role nature had cost her to play. The vision of home. the complete matebood. had gone the way of all dreams. .V , , . XLII She was not sorry to forego the doubtful luxury of meditation on the sadness of life. When Miss Trevor's card was brought to her she told the servant to show her up and bring tea immediately. She was not interested in Agnes Trevor, a younger sister of Polly Vane. but at all events she would talk about her settlement work and give a comfortably commonplace atmos. pberc to the room in which tragic clouds were rising. As it had hap- pened. Mary. during these past weeks. had seen little of New York women between the relics of her old set and their lively Society-lov- ing daughters. The women between forty and fifty. whether devoted to fashion. politics. husbands. chil- dren. or good works. had so far escaped her. and Agnes Trevor. who lived with Mrs. Vane, was practically the only representative of the intermediate ago with whom she had exchanged a dozen words. But‘ the admirable spin-tor had taken up the cause of the Vienna children with enthusiasm and raised a good deal of money, be- sides contributing liberally herself. She was forty-two. and. although she was said to have been a beauti- ful girl. was now merely patrieiau in appearance. very tall and thin and Ipinsterish, with a clean but faded complexion. and hair-colored heir beginning to turn gray. She had left Society in her early twen- ties and devoted herself to moral- lzing the East Side. She came in with a light step and an air of subdued br‘rht energy. very smartly but plaiul dressed in dark blue tweed. with a large black hat in which a wing had been seen- rstely placed by the best millinor in New York. Her clothes were so well-worn. and her grooming was smmoticulous. her accent so clean and crisp. her manner so do- void of patronage, yet subtly re- mote. her controlled heart so kind that she perenially fascinated the buxom, rather sloppy. preternatu- rally acute, and wholly unaristo- erotic young ladies of the East Side. Mary. who bad a dangerous hob. it of characterizing people in her Day Book, had written when. she met Agnes Trevor: "She radiates intelligence. good will, cherrincss. innate superiority and uncompro- mising virginity." '"Desr Mary!" she exclaimed in her crisp bright tones as she kilo- ed her amiable hostess. "How do- lightful to tind you alone. I was afraid you would be surrounded as usual." “Oh. my novelty is wearing 08.“ said Mary driiy. "But I will tell them to admit no one else today. I find I enjoy one person at s time. One gets rather tired in New York of the unfinished sentence.” “Oh. do." Mary's quick eye took note of a certain repressed evils- ment in the line eyes of her guest. who had taken an upright chair. Lounging did not accord with that spare ascetic figure. "And you are quite right. It is seldom one has anything like real conversa- tion. One has to go for that to those of our older women who have given up Society to cultivate the intellect: God gave them.“ "Are there any?" '- murmured Mary. _. “Oh, my dear, yes. But. of course. you've had no time to meet them in your mod whirl. Now that things have slowed down a bit you must meet them.“ "I'm afraid it's too late. I call in a fortnight.” “0h!" Miss Trevor’s voles shook oddly. and the slow color crept up her cheeks. But at that moment the tea was brought in. "Will you pour it out!" afied Mary. "rm feeling rather lazy." “Of course." bliss Trevor was brightly aequiescent. She seated herself before the table. ’flle man retired with instructions that m. dame was not at home to other callers. of late. and studied Cla'vering in‘ outburst more than once.
