Ma VliiierS crossed the great open
,space Of Trafalgar square and turned
Into the Strand. A cutting east wind
met BIN and he buttoned his great
cot still more closely about him. A
couple of poor, ill-clad, hungry-look-
ing children passed him, and he dived
into his trousers pocket for a stray
sixpence. He knew it was there, for
his cash balance had now dwindled far
below the limits of arithmetical calcu-
latioN. Finding it, therefore, with very
little difficulty, he rendered it to the
astonished urchins, and, mumbling
something about buns and cakes"
hurried off as though the police We're
OF his track.
Poor little souls!" he muttered. ITS
rough enough for a man, but it's worse
for ki3s!"
He walked on a few PAGES, and a
.smile-half sad, half humorous
crossed his handsome, thoughtful face.
He turned int an A. Is. G. shop, and,
taking q seat at one of the tables, or
dered an exceedingly modest tea.
He was reused from his reverie by
the sound of voices at the adjoining
table. Tor the first time since he had
entered he became aware of the pres
ence OF the girl whose eyes had more
than once been attracted to his face.
She was in obvious embarrassment
now, though Vilsiers was as yet ignor-

standing at her side. The girl was

so difficult with the kids, but a SOW
ereign' is different. And then there's
Mrs. Jinks!' Again he looked at the
poor. troubled face OF the girl, and he
ground his teeth. :
"Confound Mrs. Jinks." he muttered
to himself.
Secretly extracting his last gold coin
from its receptacle, he stopped sudden
ly, noisily jerking the table as he did
so. A moment later he arose and eX-
tended his hand to the girl at the ad-
Joining table. Between the finger and
thumb was a sovereign.
"Is this what you lost?" he said
steadily. 1T was on the floor

A few moments later n she was
gone, and Max, again Tightening his
pocket by the sum of ~sixpence, went
out into the Strand and turned down
a side street in the direction of the
Emhankment.

them regarding their future rclatinn-
ship. And there was. in truth, ample
reasons for such predictions. For the
first time in his life. Max Villiers had
yielded to an attraction so potent that
it subjuGated every other consideration.
He was in love and he fully realized
it.
He had by this time learned who she
was. 1t was dropped out, piece by
piece, in their frequent conversations
of late, and Max felt Il growing SYM
pathy with the girl whose early life
had so nearly resembled his own. She
was an artist, but until the last two
years success had eluded her. And
! then the turn of the tide had come,
and she, like himself, had taken it at
the flood. Steadily but surely she had
mounted the ladder of fame n nov
stood not far from the topmoSt rung.
| One brilliant maSterpiece-a conception
of great originality and ~power-had eff
fected the change, and now her progress
was easy and her name was We'll known
as one of the greatest living lady
artists. And then Max told her his
own story, so like hers that it seemed
almost repetition.
And now they, too, were about to bid
farewell to the lovely Rutlandshire
scenery. But before they went away
Max Villiers was determined TO know
his fate. They had wandered out into
the great shady park. and were sitting
in a little arbor hidden away beneatf
the tall old elns. There was a curious
note in the mans voice that made the
girl look quickly up into his face. hen
with Il soft pink blush on her cheeks
she turned away her head, for she hat
read his purpose.

He paused. The girls eyes were Oh
the ground. But h was not angry
he could see that, so he proceeded:
