Rex considered. There seemed to be

justify the belief that he had an en-
gagement. If so, he must by all means
wait and trust to luck to pick out the
lovely blue-eyed grille who was the
party of the other part" and hope for
an inspiration as to what to tell her.
She might be with or without chap-
erone, she might be any variety of the
species, but Strong seemed to he quite
clear that she had blue eyes.
The crowd from the incoming boat
began to unload into the ferry-house,
and Rex placed himself anxiously by
the entrance. Three or four thin men
scurried in advance, then a bunch Of
stout and middle-aged persons stray

of young people in theater array, chat

and another set. and another-the main
body of the little army was upon him.

this way and that, knocking into
somebody inevitably at every leap, and
at each contact he wheeled toward the
injured and lifted his hat and bowed
low and brought out .I-beg-your-

Billy stopped short with a sudden
ness which came near to upsetting his
guide, and put both large hands on
Rex's shoulders, and gazed into his
eyes with a world of blurred affection.

with a sob, ''if I got you into hole,
