four o'clock on a Sunday afternoon. A
young man and a girl were standing
side by side, leaning against a gate
which opened into a wide field. Be-

hill, half grass and half woodland; and

a certain well-knOwn lawyer. who for
narrative purposes shall be nameless,

person.

She was a lovely girl. and her lowell

was an oval face with delicately-chis-
eled features, and n mouth with soft
red hips exGuisitely cut, lips that were
at once passionate and proud, but al
ways tender. Her skin had that warm
undertone of clear brown which gives a
fuller richness to any beauty. But,
perhaps, it was in the large limpid brown
eyes that the chief charm was found;
and there was something SO true and
trustful in their gaze that most men
would nave forgotten to talk and looked
deep into their brown depths Nothing,
however, had ever been known 20 stay
the tide of Michael Chase's ~eloquence
when he had nee begun to hold forth on
his ~favorite theme-his own plans and
his admirable self.
He was Olive Winfeld's acknowledged
lover, and she was proud Of him. Not

primrose stars had opened; birds were
singing, and a fresh yet gentle breeze
was blowing into their faces as they
stood leaning against the gate. Yet
Michael. absorbed in himself, was un-
conscious of all this sweetness.
At last he paused for want of breath,
