An' I'd rather bar her your wife than
hava anything else In the world. Only
you've ecn her Just one you can't

Stanton shot him one straight, ex
pressive glance.
"She Is like you." slipped from hlra
Involuntarily; then, furious t his be
trayal of sentiment, he dropped the
Other's band. "We, had better go. or
we'll miss the train," be bruskly re
minded. "Oh, she Is like me." confirmed
Floyd; he turned to look again at the
factory. "We are pretty close chums.
Yes, you an' I bad better be getUn" to

They walked back to the nearest
trolley line, both silent
The subject was not touched again,
until the following morning, when they
left the train In New York.
"When shall I see you?" Stanton
questioned, as they exchanged fare
wells In the noisy depot "To-morrow
T"
"I'm going to be out of town for the
next two weeks. Mr. Green tells me."
Floyd replied. "They want me at the
Mercury factory, and there are some
other trips, too. I believe. Jessica la
going to be rather deserted; It you
happen to look her up, no doubt she
would be glad to speak to some one
besides her nurse."
"Thank you." accepted Stanton, as
carelessly. "Take care of yourself."
He bad not reached the exit when
Floyd overtook him.
"Here are the entries for the Cup
race." be panted, thrusting a folded
newspaper Into Stanton's hand. "There
are two Atalanta cars to run against
ci. It's you who need to take care
of yourself, until afterward."
"Floyd, wait! What do you moan?
Do you really think "
But bit mechanician evaded tie
question.
"Some people are hoodoo)," be
laughed. "Keep away from them,
please. Good-by."
He bad not spoken Valerie Carlisle's
name, yet Stanton knew against whom
he warned. And the melodramatic
absurdity of the Idea did not prevent
an odd thrill of discomfort and inse
curity, from which be took hla usual
refuge In roughness.
"I'm not in the habit of hiding from
people, boodocs or not Good-by."
"Oh, very well." acquiesced Floyd
oddly. "But If you won't take care of
yourself, Stanton"
"Well, what?"
"Never mind."
CHAPTER X.
An Interval.
It was on the second day after bis
arrival In New York that Stanton
called upon Jessica Floyd. This time
l.e went more confidently up the stairs
of the quiet apartuent house, sure of
bis right.
As before, the little old Irishwoman
clad In black silk was waiting to ad
mit him; as lefore, be could have
cried out in the wonder of seeing this
girl who turned Floyd's candid face
to him and smiled with Floyd's gray
eyes. . Only, this afternoon Jessicla
did not rise from the piano seat to
greet him. but from a cLair near a
window.
"Jes Is away again," abe regretted,
giving blm ber band.
"I came to see you, by bis permis
sion," Stanton returned.
The rich color flushed under her
marvelous skin, that was like no other
woman's be bad ever seen. Floyd dif
fered there, msn from girl, his com
plexion being much darker and less
translucent
"It is too early to give you tea and
cake." she told him. with a playfulness
partly shy. "liut If you will talk to
me for half an hour, it will be after
four o'clock and I can offer you hos
pitality. "Wbat shall I talk to you about?" he
doubted. "I am better at listening, I
think."
"Oh, anything, everything. Suppose
1 were Jes; I like what he likes, rao
Ing. factories, motor-cars."
Although the season was early, a
fire burned In the tiny bearth, on
either side of which they were seated,
facing each other. In the ruddy light
Stanton contemplated the smiling girl,
to ber pale-blue gown with Its lace
ruffles foaming around her full young
throat and falling low acroas her
hands.
"Tour brother has told you of the
Business partnership that we plaa for
this winter. Miss Floyd T"
She codded her bronze-crowned
head.
"Yes; I am very glad."
"Did be," a sudden fancy prompted
the question, "did he tell you that I
was coming here to see you. If I
flight?"
"Did he know of It?" she asked la
counter question.
Floyd had kept the confidence given
him, then, although no formal re
straint bad been made. The expres
sion that crossed Stanton's dark face
was warm and very gentle.
"He knew, yes. I wish I could have
met your brother years ago; I might
have been lens hard a man. more) lit to
know him, and you. now."
-You hard!"
"Has he not taught you that I am
to?"
In her earnestness she leaned for
ward, ber eyes fearlessly on bis.
"Never. I not Imagine he thinks
you that, do not so wrong his memory
of your kindness. A rough word what
is It? The first gentleness cancels It;
what Is a friend worth who does not
understand?"
Stanton bent his head, looking at
the fire.
"I have not had much gentleness
shown me." he said. "My mother died
when I was born; when I was thirteen
my father married again. My step
mother was a good woman, whom I
loved as well as my father did. Put
within the second year after the mar
riage, the horses they were driving
ran away, dragging the carriage over
an embankment and my parents died
itbln a few moments of each other
while being taken to the hospital.
Have I said that my father was
wealthy? He was so. He had made
his will, a year before. leaving every
thing to his wife: well knewtng that
she In her turn would pass all on to
me. She was much younger than he,
almost certain to outlive him. and
entirely to be trusted. But she bad
never made a w ill, delayed by chance
or forgetfulness. I suppose. When be
died five minutes before her, all his
fortune passed to his wife; then, upon
her death without a will, again legally
passed on to her relatives. I was left
with no share or claim."
"But It was yours by every right!
Surely, surely, your step-mother's rel
atives did cot take it?"
'They took every penny and every
inch. Miss Floyd. And I. at fifteen.

ed orphan. They bad no Interest In
me, and I was old enough to support
myself. One of them offered to get
me a position as office boy."
"Oh! You"
"I lived," be grimly answered. "I
asked tbem for nothing. What per
sonal trinkets belonged to me. I sold,
for the first needs; then I set to work.
My father had wished me to bo a

myself In doing It. very good: that was
better than poverty. I was poor for
six years; poor for a lifetime I wilt not

"No. you will not be." she agreed,
her voice quite low and agitated. "You

"Circumstance bent me. when It set

say there might be some amall excuse
for mr savacerv. It Is after four
o'clock. I was promised tea."
Jessica roue to cross to the little
tea table, but lingered for an Instant
"Jes once told me that be had been
guilty of the Impertinence of saying

the worst temper he had ever seen. I
think that if he were here, he would

"Perhaps he may yet retract the

beverage, then In quizzical surprise) at

"Yes." she laughed, coloring. "With

me that whenever he was out with

"Aud do you always give people

and oddly pleased.
"I would like to." she retorted.
"Then I would tike very much to
have you go to the theater with me.
tonight."
"As you like." she conceded, her
heavy lashes sweeping her checks.
The first step was made. For the
next two weeks they saw each other
frequently. Twice Stanton brought
one of the Mercury cars and took Jes
sica for sedate afternoon drives. Ber
eral rainy days she gave him sweet
chocolate and sat opposite blm before
the bright little hearth, listening or
talking with the equable sunnlness so
like Floyd's. Indeed, Stanton soon
came to feel with her the sense ol
companionship and certainty of being
understood that be felt w ith her broth.

During that Interval he did not

Meanwhile the Cup race was ap

Stanton went out to the Long Island

"It is possible to come Into New

Why the Planets Collide
Crsvlty and Other Agencies Arc at
Work in Bringing 6tars
Together.
There Is good reason to believe that
tha bodlea In space both luminous
and dead occasionally fall together,
and his conception of such an event
waa given by Prof. A. W. Blckerton
in a late Royal Institution lecture.
The collisions do not come at ran
dom. Gravity and other agencies are
at work, and before two auns collide
they come Into each other's Influence
for hundreds of years, being drawn
towards each other with constantly In
creasing speed. As the velocity would
be proportionate to size, the colllaloji
would take place In the same time
about three-fourths of an hour for all
bodies. With the collision the two
stars become a new one, the tremen
dous speed Is suddenly converted Info
heat and the explosive force expands
the new star at the rate of millions of
miles sn hour. This, Professor Blck
erton believes, explains the origin of
Nova Persel, which suddenly flashed
out In 1901 with 10,000 times the bril
liancy of our sun. This star became
the brightest In the heavens exoept
Stilus, and was the most brilliant new
star that has appeared In 300 yearn,
