 She stopped abruptly and. with a heavy shudder, burst into tears in the strong, tender clasp of his arms.
 Some time afterward she slipped away from him and dropped into the deep leather chair drawn up in front of the fireplace. A little sigh escaped her. She motioned him to a neighbor- ing chair, but gravely and not with her accustomed gayety.

 "Of what are you thinking?" he asked.
 She turned to him, drawing her breath quickly. The logs in the fire place famed up in sudden brilliance, and for the first time she noticed his pallor and the dark circles under his eyes. His face, too, was graver than it's wont in spite of it's great content. II have forgotten how hard it was for you, too," Martha said. with quick contrition.

 He looked at her strangely, then seated himself on the arm of the big leather chair and, slipping his arm around her, drew her gently toward him.
 "It was yesterday" she went on in choked voice, nervously clasping and unclasping his hand. 'I was sitting hero, and kept thinking and thinking of you, and then suddenly I saw you You were sitting in car smoking anu laughing and talking, and all the while some dreadful thing was creeping up beside you-closlng in around you-and you would not see With all my might I called to you to come away, and al most that same instant came a terrific jolt and the horrible grinding sound If crashing cars.
