She had come to fetch eome books she found she had left Id the kitchen, a cookery book and a manu script book of recipes she bad copied out. She had been surprised to And that Hel Moore was there, The porter told 'ber. But he bad gone out and said he would not be back until late.

She Just had presence of mind to say lightly: "This sleeve will eome out, If it Isn't mended! I don't suppose you've got anything here for me to mend It With." They looked at each other In em barrassment. "I didn't know you had come back," Laurie went on hurriedly. "The porter told me. I came to fetch my cookery books that I'd left be hind." "I'm only here for a few days." 'He looked eager and tremendously alive. As of old, she could feel the strength pulsing from his fingers, they sbook hands. He had Just come from the eye specialist. The great man's examination had had the happiest results. Sir Gilbert said .he was sure tbe danger of sudden i blindness bad passed, for the lmme 'dlate future at any rate. "Is Mrs. Budd looking after you 'all right?" she asked, keeping her voice with an effort to that light, (artificial pitch. "rES. thanks. But I don't trouble 1 her much. I'm going back to Gretton tomorrow. Albery Is going ' to spend eevornl days down there I suppose you know that. We are go ing to do the flnnl tests with the new fuel. Has he told you about It?" "No, Mr. Albery has not men tioned It again. It was only while I was working on the reports. Is It go ing to he a success, aftpr all? Have they made It snfi!?" "That remains to be seen. It seems a long time since we met, Ijiurle," be ertded abruptly. "More than a fort night. Ilnve you begun your cam paign of dropping hints shout onr mstrlmonlal disputes?" "Not to any extent." she answered eoldly. "Have you told Mrs. Steele?" TABLE ROCK HARVESTS HEAVY CROPS OF GRAIN TABLE ROCK. Aug, lfl.

"I't thought of nothing but getting read; for the Pacific. By the way, Laurie, you haven't made that appointment yet for me to take you up In the air. Have you forgotten 7" "I haven't forgotten." She forced herself to laugh, but it was strange bow, again, words seemed to be put Into ber mouth. "Perhaps I'll ask you to take me up when you try the new fuel!" "You can ask for all you're worth," b replied. "I assure you that's not the way you'll make your first flight with me." "Then, some other time," she said, still mechanically. "I'll ring you up. When do you start for the Pacific?" "At the end of next week, I hope." The sunshine bo longer came through the window To Laurie the room grew suddenly dark. "I must be getting off," she said, picking up her books from the table. But Rex Moore waa beside her. He took the books from ber. His bands were on her shoulders. His eyes were full of lire. "Laurie, I've learned something since we parted tbe other day." His voice was vibrant, full of such a surg ing emotion that her heart seemed to stop beating. "Ican'tllvewlthoutyou, Laurie. I love you I love you, little Laurie! Say you love me! We've been a pair of fools, but It's not too late." Mr, Albery, Rex." DUT it was too late. " Laurie swayed for a moment. An Irresistible Impulse drew her to him. As metal to magnet she was drawn, drawn until his arms were closing round her to fold her In his strength, as in a tower. But she started back with a sharp cry. "You are mad, Rex," she said. "You don't love me. I don't love you. Wa had that out the other day." "I'm not mad. I was mad. Now I'm sane. Laurie, you love me! You can't tool me. I knew It that night. Walt for me to come back to you!" Again bis arms seized ber to crush out her resistance. But this time she sprang away, throwing back her head, and managed to smile with a pretence of lightness. "Rex, I have done my bit. You tnld me tbe other day I bad paid my debt. You mustn't talk to me so wildly. I am going to marry Mr. Albery." He stared; his arms fell to his sides. Ills face went grey. "I see. I used to think you would before I saw that he was in love with you. I expected It until, as you say, I went mad. Do you mind telling me what he knows about us?" "I told him the truth." "What do you mean the truth?" He was like a man turned to stone. "That we were not married. Ahont the trick I played on him snd on you." "Rut surely, he'd nover forgive that! I told you, Lsurle, he'd never stand being made a fool of. But he has said nothing to me." "He left It to me to explain, Rex. He does forgive us for deceiving him. And It will make no difference to you." The man gave a loud, hoarse laugh of fury. "Of course, he wants you so much! He will forgive anything. And you're going to merry him for his money."
