Ha bad been very Quiet all venlng. almost sad, and aa If be wore not enjoying himself. With sudden Impulse aha leaned acrosa the little table between them and spoke. "You're ao quiet." Hla eyea met here steadily. "I bare been wondering U you re member that I told you thla morning there was something I wanted to ppeak to you about" Georgia's eyea opened wide. "I'd forgotten," ahe slid guiltily. "I thought ao." He looked away from her Into the crowded ballroom. "Hare you had enoaib of thlst" he asked bluntly. "But lt'a only twelra o'clock," ahe objected. Be made a helpless gesture with his hands. "It's such a notae. I can't talk to you." "It's quiet enough her. What do you want to tell me? Is anything the matter?" He turned his heal to her again, his eyea angry. "Yes," he said, "I lore you, and I know you don't care a bang about me, that's what'a the matter." Oeorgle stared at him, and her heart-beats quickened. "You mean . . . you want to marry me7" she asked. "Yes." He moved hla chair a Utile nearer to her round the table. "I know you don't cart for me; but you like me a little, don't you?" "I Ilka you a great deal." "Then couldn't you? I mean, won't you?" "I don't love you," Oeorgle said. "I know, but lota of girls marry fellows and get to lore them after wards." There waa a little silence, then . Oeorgle eaid: "Not If they lore someone else do they?" ' There was an uncertain note In ber voice. Clifford laughed harshly. "Do you lore someone else?" "Yes." "Someone who won't marry you?" "He caa't. He'a married." "Would he If he could r ' "I don't think so," Oeorgle said truthfully, and then more firmly. ''No, I'm quite aure he wouldn't" , "And you're going on all your life hankering after a fellow who doesn't care for you?" ' "lt'a not 'hankering'," Oeorgle said. "I'm quite happy; at least I think I am." "Do I know him?" "No." "Do you ever see him." "I haven't, not for a long time. At least It seems a long time," ahe added wistfully. "And you're content to go on, hop ing that some day he will change his mind?" "I don't think about It like that" CLIFFORD laid hla hand over hers. "Look here he aald. "I think I understand you. You live In the clouds and dream. Aren't you dreaming now about thla fellow? Just Imagining that you lore him? You must want a home of your own, and a husband. All girls do. I'll be good to you, Oeorgle. You must know that and I'm not badly off. . . ." "If you were It wouldn't matter, if 1 loved you, Oeorgle aald. He gave a little exclamation of pain. "Yon never know a man till you've lived with him," Clifford said almost roughly. "You can't know me or how good I'd be to you until you try. Getting engaged Isn't getting mar ried. Get engaged to me and see how we get on. Lota ot girls experiment like that and I think lt'a only fair they should. H you fled you don't like me "But I do like you.' She listened to him apathetically, with a feeling of tears In her heart Why should the wrong voice always say such beautiful things? He said again abruptly! CRESCENT CITY PORT WA8H1NOTON, July 10, AP) At the request of the house rivers A FAMOUS "Do you mind It we go soon? 1 can't stick this any longer." 'We'll go aa soon as yon Ilk," Oeorgle aald. She waa feeling very miserable; It waa bad enough to be unhappy herself, but to know that someone else waa unhappy oa her account made things a thousand times harder, especially someone who had been a kind friend. They said goodnight to their host, ess, Georgia pleading a headache. "I haven't really got one," ahe told Clifford aa they went out to hla car. "But It seemed unkind to leave without some real reason." "She probably thinks that It was Just an excuse to get away with me," be answered unkindly. 'I don't mind what she thinks," Georgle said aerenely. They drove away In silence. H was a' cold clear night with a pale moon which looked aa If aomeone had unkindly given It a punch on the cheek. Georgle looked at It and remembered that the same moon waa shining down on Germany, and on the hospital where Nicholas Boyd lay. Was he In much pain? She claspod her hands closely together, telling herself that she ought to be thore with him. What waa It be had once said to her? "Someone who, porhape quite un intentionally, lays a gentle band on your soul." The memory of those worda was like something warm wrapped around her, and for a moment she closed ber eyea. Clifford spoke suddenly. "I suppose I shan't be seeing you again." "Oh, why not?", "You don't want me." Oeorgle wished she could say "yes I do" and really mean- It It would be wonderful It she could return thla man's love, to want him and to have him for her own, but she knew It waa not possible. "Can't we still be friends?" ahe pleaded. He laughed mirthlessly. "All girls say that when they turn a chap djwn." He pulled the car about Into a garage. i "I've got to get some gasoline." He left her, banging the door be hind him aa he got out It made Oeorgle remember Ed ward Bancroft; he was so fond of banging doors, and be banged them so' eloquently. She smiled faintly, looking back wards at her life with him. - ' Would she ever go back to It? And It so, would she mind very much? Clifford was talking to the garage man; she watched him with far away eyes. He was good to look at strong, reliable; suro? some day he would meet a girl who would care for him as be deserved? Juat now he looked unhappy. There was a frowning line of pain between his kind eyes, a line which ahe had unwittingly brought thore. She looked away from him wllb a consclenco-strlckon feeling, TiB atreet aeemed very deserted; a dog rummaged about In the opposite gutter for a bone, and a woman had just come out of a little shop where tobanco and newspapers and aweots wore aold, and waa standing looking up at the moon. Georgle wondered It her thoughts were sad too; It somewhere In the world there wss somebody she would like to have been with and was dot allowed to by Life, or Fate, or whatever power It was that or- dalned things.' The littlo shop looked peaceful enough with Its drawn blinds and dim light staining through the crack, and yet It was Impossible to tell what sorrow and tragedy lived be hind Its walls. She was In a mood to notice de tails. Idly she picked up a scrap ot paper lying on the seat beside her; a torn fragment from what wa- probably the afternoon paper. She looked at it with vague inter est then suddenly she caught her breath with a eharp sound ot pain. Clifford glanced at her as he re turned to the car. "What'b the matter?" he asked, struck by the Intensity ot her gate. Georgle did not answer blm. She felt as If the world and all solid things had floated away from her, leaving ber giddy and agonised, with only the ffordi she had read on the serap of paper blazoned before her In letters ot fire.
