He must stop her, must tell her of Helen and go away at once. : She laid a hand gently on bis arm. "You know, John," she whispered, "you are very, very welcome home." Rand's agony at the girl’s tone and gesture waa annihilated by a thun dorous crash. Darkness came upon them with the shivering of glass, the cracking of strained timbers The long ghiftlessness in the management of the road had borne fruit in a fear­ ful colllalon. Rand lay stunned for a few seconds and then by powerful wrenchlngs freed himself from the debris. He aUxMi dazed as a realization of the disaster forced itself upon his numb­ ed senses. “Ruth.” he cried, "Ruth, where are you?" Frantically be tugged at the splintering beams.

He raised her tenderly and carried her to the little grassy bank beside the tracks. Very gently be held her with great bitterness in hts heart tor be knew that she was dying and that she had given him a love which he could not return. At last her eyes unclosed and be bent to catch the words that her lips were struggling to form. "1 don’t mind, John—because you came." She hesitated. "Oh, Ruth," he began In an agon- ized voice half Intending to tell her all. A faint smile crossed her face and she interrupted. "I always knew you would come, John, for you promised, but It has been so long." The man was completely unnerved. He could not let her die without one kind word—this girl who bad found tbe years so long. He bad promised nothing at parting more than a boy's thoughtless ”1'11 come back.” "Ruth," he said unsteadily. Her eyes opened again very slowly. Looking in­ to those eyes, all words failed him, and. stooping, he kissed her brow. Later they found him there in the starlight, with the dead girl in his arms.

Hand did not make himself known to them. He caught himself wishing that they had known him, but was aware at the same time that be was unreasonable to expect It To them the years had no doubt seemed long­ er than to him He had worked hard not pausing to observe the flight of time. And since he had met Helen, how short the months hid been, sweet little Helen who was soon to be his wife. There were only a few other pas | senders In the car. Rand scrutinized ' each one imagining that be might And In them some old friends of hts youth. A few seats ahead of him sat a young woman to whom bls eyes reverted , questlonlngly several times. There was something about the wave of her 1 black hair or the low coll of it against her neck that haunted him with a vague familiarity. Once she turned a : little and he caught a glimpse of her cheek Ruth Hayes! The name un­ ; thought of for so many years flashed i Into his mind.

Her eyes met his for a second uncertainly and then a smile of happy recognition lighted her face. She extended her hand.
