faintly beneath lt cerementt of telf

ly e!f-ltiterest iertd it iway and
riifled the incipient pleading of honor
nd hnneity. "Why, Dorothy," he
tairj, coldly, "you turely hava known
me lotijr enough to hive learned that I
never adopt 1 retoVutlon without ha

"Did you," broke In Dorothy, im
pu'.dively, "exercite thli caution before

Percy fluilied mirrlly. "1 belleTe,"
)it wnt on, "In the old Peralin prov
erb, 'Undertake nothing of which thou
hait not well considered the end.'"
"An excellent motto, truly," taid
Dorolhy, coldly. "Since when, may I
aik, did you adopt thla moat wite
philoeophy. It teem pity It thould
have come to you to lit Do you think
you baie well considered Ihe end you

ildvd, brutally.
"Don't trouble youTtelf, Percy Tes

"It I. ended."
"Well, Dorothy," tild Percy, tome

"you did rem twfiilly In love with me,

"Ill, lill" laughed Percy, tinenidly.
"You are potltlvely brilliant." He d;d
not like the fact that Dorothy (rv
him hit freedom to rwdliy. It mm
whit dfpreclnted the hl(;h value he tet
on blniHehf. "I)e!len me," he told,
pompuvily, "I thill alwayi entertain
