I'D UT me ashore! 1 was a fool to
come out with YOU"
In the stern of the little row boat
Nancy Dalton's voice rose loudly-half
angry, half frightened. The frail
craft swung out, pointing toward the
center of the mountain lake, glitter
ing in the hot sun of the August aft
ernOon.
''Oh, Dick, please take me in" Her
tone was pleading now. "It's getting
late, Dick"
The tanned face bending above the
oars was curiously pale. Not yet"
broke from the set lips. ST don't have
many chances to row you, lately"
But they'll expect me-" She
glanced anxiously at the receding
banks. No answer. The boat she. on.
After a moment: "Dick!"
"Wen?"
"There is no use in being so fool
ish. It's silly. A big, strong man like
you shouldn't mind. There are plenty
of other girls"
The man paused in his rowing and
pointed with a dripping oar. Look
he said, hoarsely. ''Way over on the
hilk-my little house, Nan. I was
building it for you-for us. when j
could make you home you said. 1t
is almost done. Now" A quick
choke strangled his words.
I'm sorry, Dick. OF course,
couldn't tell about-about-" Her
hand went to her eyes. I'm only a
girl, you know"
Dick Caney's words came fiercely:
you're sorry! You couldn't tell
Only a girl! In the name of the Heav-
en- 1 hoped for and the hell I'm going
to, how does that help me? is your
eyes and hair and hands and voice
you'll Mamie, I've worked and planned
and waited, dreaming of the day com
ing when 1 should take You home
To look in your eyes, to stroke your
hair, feel your hands, hear your voice
and know at last you were mine-all
mine"
"oh. Dickl"
"And trusting you, never dreamed
of anyone else. / don't blame Burns
He's a man same as / am. And you
are ten years younger than l. Your
folks-well, he's got money and style
and I'm only Dick Caney. I'll take

''Oh, take me home, Diclil Don't
talk like that! Don't look so at me!
Please take me home"
''Tm going to-" The strained
weather-beaten face was full of G
fierce pity. The suffering eyes rovet
of across the water
