80, Cor sweet young LADY,"

nav picked up her basket, hurried UP
b rho main road, and was soon Walk
ing swiftly homewards. But swiftly as
che went, the storm moved more quick
ly still. u,,,r,
Flash succeeded fash with startling
raniditv.. the whole artillery OF heaV-
on seemed rumbling across the SKIES
The sea was no longer calm, but NOV
cd and swelled as If in some stranse
couvulsion; and every moment the shy
grew blacker. A dreadful oppression
filed the air, which was almost sumo.
catingly hot. As Day hurried on nan
running, she felt her throat dry ana
parched, and the perspiration stoou III
beads on her face.
No human creature had passed her'
there were no houses between F1nstray
and Abbot's Head. But suddenly, as
Dav ran on, she heard the sound or
hell ringing behind her, and, turning
she saw cyclist come flying along the
road at terrific speed. For moment
her heart bounded, for she thought II
was Magnus. Bicycles were not so
common in that far Orcadian land.
The next moment she knew it was I'M
possible-Magnus had gone in the 9th
err direction. The cyclist was on her
in a few seconds. He slowed up as he
approached, and, touching his cap,
asked:
Can you tell me if / am right for
Stromness?"
Straight on" Day replied. He touch
ed his cap again and flew on. Day
looked after him, and his figure was
lit I'D by a brilliant flash of lightning
as she looked. He was gentleman,
she could tell at once-slight in figure,
dark in complexion, handsome and al
most patrican in features. All that
Day took in in that bright flash; then
he was beyond her sight, hid by turn
in the road. She hurried on.
Suddenly fash of forked lightning
burst out, quivered for a moment over
the landscape, lighting it up with a
blue and purple glare, then went out.
Almost at the same moment terrific
clash of thunder shook the whole sky;
the rafting and pealing above was
like the day of doom. Day was cour-
ageous, but that awful peal made her
start nervously and fly EDWARDS. She
was close to the narrow road which
turned up to the Head when some OBJ
ject lying on the ground just at the
crossroads drew her attention. Her
heart leaped to her mouth. Could il
be the cyclist, struck by that fearful
bolt?
She ran up to it, hardly touching
the ground in her haste. In few Sec
onds she saw that she had been right
in her conjecture. The bicycle lay on
the side Of the road with twisted
handle-bars; and few PAGES from it
in strange, huddled-up position, mo-
tionless, lay the unfortunate rider!

CHAPTER III.

Day went on her knees and bent
over the PROSTATE form.
Are you hurt?" she asked in a
somewhat shaken little voice. But no
answer came. She tried to draw the
mans arm from under him. II was
limp and powerless, like that of the
dead.
"Oh, God, grant that he Is not dead!
Day whispered, in an awe-stricken
voice. She was young and strong, and
the warm blood of youth flowed
through her veins. 1t sent a shudder
to her inmost heart to think that the
man whom she had seen a few Sec
onds ago as full of youthful health
and energy as she herself might be
lying now cold, supine, without sight
or heaflng-dead.
The lightning was still playing about
her head, and the thunder rafting:
but Day hardly needed it. All thoughts
Of her own danger were banished from
her mind. The effort to turn him
around, so that the mans face was
hidden, for it was turned inwards upon
his arm. Day made violent effort
to turn him so she could see his face.
She succeeded partially at last; but
then the sight that met her eyes terri
fed her more than ever.
CHASTITY pale, with closed eyes and
mouth, and with apparently no breath
coming from between the tightly-set
lips, 1t seemed to Day like the face Of
dead man. In its white, awful pallor
she saw it more distinctly now than
she had before. The features were fine
and delicately cut, and the whole face
refined; only the mouth, in it's close
set seemed to give indication of stern
nature-too stern for SO young a face.
"oh, mereiful Father, grant that he
may not die" Day prayed again, hard
ly knowing what she said. for in her
deepest heart she believed he was real
ly dead.
What am I to dor
Then, swift as an arrow, II flashed
into her mind what she should do. She
rose from her knees, called to Ola, who
was shifting about the PROSTATE figure,
and flew up the road which led to Abb
bots Head. In three minutes, hot
breathless. painting, she was at the
door.
Bell was looking out for her, with a
scared expression on her face.

her gaze travel over that great eX-

as often presages a storm. The SKY
above was blue, but thickly yelled with
grey, thundery clouds, edged with a
