have declared their love for each
other just before he eet out : now
Laurie ie worried about Rex. and
still more about her eieter Gladys,
who ie fluinq high, wide and hand

is being mixed a cocktail In Jim

l"f'LL mix you my latest," aH
Jimmy.
Jimmy walked out of the room to
fetch Ice. and when he came back,
Gladys was looking at a photograph
that stood In lonely Importance on
his mantelpiece, Hanked by various
quaint animals blown out of glass.
It was particularly noticeable in
that room, without any other picture
of any kind, all glaring white, with
splashes of black and orange for cur
tains, tables of steel tubing and
plate glass, and enormous square
white armchairs, looking as If they
bad been cut out of a block of snow.
The photograph was of a girl and
seemed to belong to a different age.
An ordinary-looking girl, with a lot
of hair in plaits round her rather
large head.
"To our next meeting, sweetheart!"
"Who's this?" asked Gladys curi
ously. "One of your sisters?"
"No, it's a friend a girl I've
known since I was a kid," be
answered.
"My, Isn't she plain? I don't re
member it the other night when I
was here, Jimmy. And I bad a good
look around."
"No. I was going through some
drawers and cnme across it with a
lot of others. I forgot to put it
away."
' "It's not a girl you're In love
with?" Gladys's voice was decidedly
suspicious, although she could not
imagine Jimmy in love with a girl
who looked like that
"Good Lord, no!" There was
whole-hearted truth In Jimmy's
voice. He was displeased at the in
cident. Poor Elsie Grove certainly
was plain. The reason for the photo
graph being there was thst Mrs.
Grove had brought her daughter to
tea yesterday to inspect his newly
furnished quarters.
Elsie Grove was the girl his
father had decided that he should
eventually marry. They were not en
gaged officially, but the families
were bent on the match. It bad ad
vantages of business and property;
quite an out-of-date Idea, but, then
the two famlles were hopelessly old
fashioned. "TTERE'S the best cocktail you've
ever drunk." he told Gladys,
banding her a generous glass. "To
our next merry meeting," sweet
heart!" Gladys put her glass down when
she had finished, and stood by the
window, holding out her arm and
gsilng at a tiny wrist watch, set with
diamonds, that Jimmy had given her
that morning.
"It's lovely," she said, but I
wish you'd given me a ring."
"Silly monkey, you couldn't wear
it!"
"I can't ear this, either," she
said reproachfully. "It looks much
too exnensivp "
"You can wear It vhwn vnii'r I
with me. 1 love to see you with pretty
things, darling." It was one of
Jimmy's characteristic points, his
love of display, of expensive things,,'

"I'd love a ring," the girl went on,
and In her voice was the note of help
less devotion that thrilled the young
man, and sometimes made him feel
that life might be very wonderful If
one wasn't so tied up. "It would
make me sort of feel I belonged to
you, Jimmy."
"You do," he said, very low, and
took her in his arms.
"Oh, Jimmy!" she smiled happily,
and looked adoringly into his eyes.
His spell was on her more potently
than ever. "You do love me, don't
you? We are going to get married
some day?"
"You bet your life," he answered.
But there were depths in the girl
that she did not know herself, and
in them stirred a sudden fear and a
sudden pain. She clasped her arms
tightly round his neck and hid her
face on his shoulder. '
"Jimmy, I'm crazliy In love with
you. At first I thought It was only
a game. I'm a silly fool, but you're
Just everything to me. If you don't
love me, If you ever get tired of me
and go away from me, I shall die!"
"You silly Flowerface!" replied
the spellbinding voice. "As if I'm
not Just longing for the day when
we can be together!".
Gladys found herself crying, as
she hurried along the empty West
end streeta to get on her Chelsea
omnibus.
Poor Gladys! Perhaps she hadn't
reckoned on the power of love when
she started on this gay adventure.
Or, perhaps the new cocktail had
been too strong!
A 8 Laurie was walking along the
street, four days later, she read
a newspaper headline Mn a boy's
hand.
REX MOORE FLIES BACK
BUT CRASHES
She turned sick. For a few sec
onds she could not move. She could
not bring herself to buy a paper.
"Rex Moore Crashes."
She stumbled back to the flat It
was late afternoon. She had left the
office early. Mr. Albery was at Fen
Gretton.
She rang him up.
His voice was reassuring but
puttied.
"I've Just got a message." he- told
ber. " 'Phoned on fron the office.
Moore la apparently all right. He
came down somewhere In Ireland
not far from the Coast. He was
flying straight on. Some newspaper
men were soon on the spot. So he
has made the most marvellous rec
cord In the world so far.
"From what I gather, he wouldn't
say anything except that ha left the
American coast at the time stated In
the first messages we got. He went
to a farm house to get some water to
drink, leaving them to guard his
'plane. From then on he seems to
have disappeared.
"They waited, and as he didn't
come, they followed him to the farm,
but he had gone. They were told
he asked where be could get a car.
They went back to the air field as
fast as they could, and later a mes
sage came from Moore, asking them
to have his 'plane flown back to the
fleld, where he could come for It. He
was going back to London by train
and boat."
"He's not here," said Laurie. "And
there's no message."
"Probably he hasn't had quite time
to get back, Mrs. Moore.
