V ! ! .1 10 t m i . THIIiTT-NIXB Many times, during the jdark lioijrs. which lay ahead of her, Syl via thought of that drive. They ' had been late In starting, and al ready the winter fun was drooping, toward the korlzsnw turning from " "golj ejLo orange, from orange to across the Immaculate fields, from , rows of ? ma pies and' oaks border-'Ing-the road. ; -Steve had purpose- ly chosen, a .

"This sure does beat "driving a machine, on a 4ay like this. , JJJddap, f CharUe!" They spun along, the bell tinkling mer ily, the. runners cutting through the icy crust, of the road with a .pleasant hum.

He flboked ' down .at .Sylvia with his jwhlmsif af smile. .r, couldn't be any, more xo, and Hve?'VherUdd him. ."Do you .'know, Steve' dear,- -when I'm- as ,happy a-his, I-aiwaysatch my Jielf wondering what misfortune is 'waiting for me Just around the icorne."

"Nonsense J" Steve dropped Jiis ' whip and gave her a quick hiig. Ifon't yon know, sweetheart of mine, that misfortune can't harm peppiewbo really love?" - ? -' f'l wish it wre true, Steve, but 4Jt isn't. .People who care for each other a we do are -shining marks jfor old man Trouble. So many 'things can happen. For one, your mother! may find but " f "No more of that, dear.' Steve stopped her words with a kiss. "If you really ee4 :6 strongly about it, we'll tell her." fe''"Do. ypv think she would be lieve?" " ' "Of course she would.

And between nowjand 'june--'' ;Tve been jthlnking about that," Steve said q,ucklj "and I don't see any sense In this June stuff. Nqt any.a-tall. I just told mother that, -the bther: day, because she seemed to .think I was about to , .-desert her or Something. . As far as I'm concerned, "we i "can't get the arteRellicejase . Any, too , quick. Why not hunt up a minister next v Inday, - when: we -ko Into town, and tell him to "do his woraV . ?TVell,'why; riot? Sylvia thought, with a little shiver of joy.

And Mrs. Harmon might hesitate to name her as co respondent fcn a jdivorce nlt, wjth Steve' ready to fight 'her battles, help dear her -Jiame. They .might even force the ease to an issue, put the parties at f interest on the stand and let them tell their stor ies. Sylvia wais ready enough, now, to tell hers. The ; more she thought about it, the more angry she became at the injustice which had been done her.. ..She had been beaten, for the moment, when she left Hollywood beaten and discouraged- but Bhe did not feel beateh now. Her love for Steve had changed . all that. For his sake, for the sake of his people, she was eager to fight, to demand justice. As these thoughts whirl ed through her brain she felt Steve's arm about her. He had stopped the horse at the crest of a little hill, and a flood of crimson light from the setting sun swept over them. ""Dearest," he whispered, his voice low and very tender with emotion, "J, don't want to wait. I love you too much. June is four sionths away. Say you'll marry me now. He swept -Sylvia into his eager embrace and kissed her so passionately ithat she trembled.) "Say you'll marry me Monday. I want you In my arms for . al ways." - - Sylvia did not speak. Her feel ings choked her. ' But she could nod her head -and did. Steve gave a great shout. "You-you mean it?" he cried, staring at her, unable to believe she was in earnest. "Yes, Steve I mean it. I'll marry you Monday. But on one condition." "There, now," he groaned, with mock solemnity, "I just knew there was a catch in it some where." "Not much of a atch, dear boy. Only this we've got to tell your mother before we are married, not afterwards." "And ask her consent?" "No. Not that. I'll marry you anyway, if you want me. But I'm not going to do it under false col ors. She must know who I am must hear my story. If she be lieves it, as you say she wil, all well and good. If she doesn't be lieve it. we'll have to prove it to her. that's all. But I'm not going to deceive her any longer." "Fair enough," Steve said, after a moment of thought. "And I don't mind saying I think you're right. We'll explain the whole thing to her tonight, and ask her blessing. And as soon as we're married, instead of going to Egypt we'll go to Hollywood and make those birds In the picture; business give you justice or know the rea son why." "Yes, dear. That's Just what I want. On your account and your mother's more than on my own. I never should have left Holly- wouu m me iirst place, 1 guess, but I'm glad I did, just the same. Otherwise I shouldn't have met you." .Steve drew her to him and their lips clung together for a long, happy moment. Then he picked up the reins and turned the cutter around. "Time we were getting back," he said. "You'll want to dress for dinner, of course. After il'nner we'll teU her." The sun had dropped behind a ledge' of leaden clouds, and all the beauty of the day had gone with it: Steve whipped up his horse. "Cold, all right, isn't it?" he laughed. It seemed to Sylvia, too, that a strange chill had crept into her heart. Perhaps she sensed in ome telepathic way the horror which at that moment had crept into another heart, not many miles away from where they now were. - To be continued.) Copyright, 1026.
