had seen this man before I She
could not break away from the fa«-
ctnatlon of those burning eye*.
“Why," she began, “you—you're—”
"Yea,” he murmured In a low
throaty voice, “Rio del Romo I"
“Rio del Romo I” echoed Dale
softly. "The wonderful Rio del
Romo! I saw you In ‘The Fly
ing Ace’ and In “He Swoops to Con
quer'!"
“We’re here to make a picture
now," he nodded almost impercep
tibly at the man with the light,
wavy hair. “I. of course, star In
It. It Is called ’Wings of Cupid’ I"
“And you do stunts as tn the
o-.her ones? How perfectly thrill

She turned to the other man.
"Which of you Is the pilot?"
Rio del Romo Interrupted him be
fore he could speak. “I—I am the
hero of the picture—of course—
Rio del Romo—I!”
The other man smiled at her

he said.
The next two weeks were thrill
ing ones for Dale, but they caused
her a good deal of perplexity. For
one thing, when they swam togeth
er, It was Craig Thornton who
swam and dived and rode on the
surf-board, while Rio de) Romo lay
on the raft and scowled. He didn't
like things like that, he said. But
when they went to dances at the
Loon club, It was Rio del Romo, the
flying star, who got all the atten
tion. Dale was the envy of every
girl at the lake.

Romo told Dale that he wanted her
to marry him. When sl'e hesitated,
he was overcome with astonish
ment. Finally he said: "Well, to
morrow, when my picture Is done,
you may tell me then To he the
wife of Rio del Romo, think of
ltt The wife of the famous flying
star!”
Dele did think of It, but she
thought more of Craig.
In the morning she watched the

lake and then speed away over

her eyes widened In horror. Di
rectly over the mountain the plane
began to spin, and went crashing
to the earth. With a cry Dale
started to run toward It. 81ie was
sobbing to herself: “Oh, Craig.
Craig. Craig!" For now she know.
No glory of stars or pilots could
compare with Craig, who loved her,
whom she loved.
Suddenly there was a voice be
hind her. “Do not cry, do not cry
for me, for Rio.” Re was gazing
at her with those burning eyes.
"I do not go up. Me, I do not do
these dangerous things!”
Dale stared nt him wide-eyed,
breathless! "Who does?"
“Why. he. that Craig Thornton.
He does all the piloting! Come, tell
me you will marry—’’
But Dale never heard the rest of
It. She was off through the woods
and up the hillside to the place
where a broken bit of silver lay
crushed against the earth. And
there, miracles of miracles, was
Craig Thornton, one arm hanging
limply at his side, smiling and
walking toward her.
A long time later. Dale told him
about Rio. her eyes flashing. “Why
did you let him take all the credit,
den'?’’ Craig tightened his arm
around her. "I never cared." he told
her, “till I met you. Dale. And
then—I wanted you just because
yon loved me. I'll be a real star
now. for your sake. dear. I’ll ’Say

voice was very tender,
