He bent toward her awiftly, then

"I'll give you u piece of valuable ad

And he threw himself Into hla chitlr.
He drew n notebook from hla pocket,
nd when ahe wilted herself he did not
look up. There was n gray cast about
bin face, and hla lips were compressed.
Bhe noticed that he was older than ahe
at flint mippoHcd and that the hand
with which ho held the pencil twitched
nervously; then ahe lay watching him
Idly from beneath lowered llda.
An hour later be looked up, and their
glnncea met. With sudden determina

remarked coanposodly.

"Nor with love."
He shook himself free from an I mag.

As she did not anawcr he spoke fienv

"Husli:" ahe cried, ber cheeks nam
ing. "How- bow dare you?" Her
voice broke sharply, and ahe fell to
nobbing behind her raised hands.
"My liod!" ho aald eoftly. b felt
bla breath upon her forehead, and a
tremor pussed over her, Then bla
bauds fastened upon bera and drew
them from ber eyea. He waa pantlug
like a man who baa ruu a race.
Khe woa looking atrnlght before ber.
A small homing bird alighted for a
awlft lustitnt on the railing near them,
scanning ausplcloualy the deserted cor
ner, and ahe knew that that bird would
Im hlaxoiied on her memory forever
after. Then she felt the man's Hps
close uhiii her own.
"You shall love me," he said, "and
rlkdit x damued!" !
Rhe atepHd out upon the deck, her
eyea shining. He met her moodily.
"Shall we walk up Into the bow?" be
asked.
Hbo nodded. "This la our last even
ing." she said. "We will make It
; long." i
j "However long we make It, there la j
, always tomorrow." j
i Her face clouded. "Yes, there la to-
! morrow," she admitted. ;
Khe fell Into step with him, and they
walked the length of the deck. Once j
, ahe lost her balance, and he laid hla i
! hand upon her arm. When she recov- f
! ered herself he did not remove It. I
"WV will go far up." she aald. "We i
1 will look atralght out to sea and for
' get what la behind us." '

She anilled Into bla face. "I will
j make you," she nnawered. 'Tut your
I handa upon the ralllng-ao and watch
the boat aa It cuts the wavea. Ia It
I not like a bird? And aee, the atara are
corning out."
A aalt apray daabed Into their facee
aa tliey leaned far over. A wet wind
blew past them, and ahe put up ber
hand to hold her hat. Hor aklrta were
wrapped closely about ber, and ber
figure seemed to grow taller In the
gray fog that roae from the aea. The
ethereal quality In her appearance waa
amphaalaed.
He drew away from ber. "You are
too delicate for my rough hands," be
aid.
"Am I?" aho toughed aoftly; then a
rtelng pnaalon swolled In her voice. '1
i io choose to bo broken by you to
U'iiu' caressed by liny other man"
Ills luce whitened. "Don't say that,"
he protested hoarsely.
"Why not, since It Is true?"
"It Is not true."
A half moon waa mounting luto the
heavens, and It lit the sea with a path
of allver. The pearl colored mist float
ed ahead of the steamer, fluttering like
the tllmy garments of a water sprite.
A down stars bung overhead.
"But It la true," she answered. Her
words rang clearly, with a triumphant
note. For a time ho did not apeak. In
the light of the half moou Hhe saw the
deepening furrows upon bla fuce. Hla
hands were clinched.
"There Is time yet," ho said at last,
"to withdraw a false play. Take your
love back."
She trembled, aud ber lips parted. "I
cannot," ahe replied, "and I would
not."
He stretched out his anna aa If to
Aniw her toward him. and she faltered
before the passion lu bla glance. Theu
be fell back. "What u mesa you are
making of your life!" be aald.
But hla warming eyea bad reassured
bar, "The nieas la already made," aha
responded. '
