THE HERO WHO RAN AWAY.

BY J. Ss FLETCHEH.
 Copyright, 1906. by Joseph B Bowles).
 When the afternoon express finally rolled into the Care du Nord at o'clock of an April evening. Maxwell left the train with a sigh of immense relief He was in Paris. and in Paris he could breathe and think, and per haps make up his mind as to what was to be done at the present crisis of his life.
 Anyway. l am freed from the great. the overwhelming temptation of her presence" he thought. as he walked moodily about the flower scented streets. "A man gets so little chance of thinking clearly In a woman's pres ence. or If she Is within easy distance of him. If I'm going to fight this thing out it must me away from her. She"
 Maxwell stopped suddenly--thought and step alike came to a summary con clusion. He was dimly conscious that he stood at the corner of the Rue Royale. and that he was shaking hands with his friend Lady Ravensrode, from whom in some vague fashion the spring morning had suddenly borrowed new charm of light. shade, color and scent.
 Major Maxwell" she exclaimed. But why should one be surprised? Paris Is so very much next-door now adays. Let me see--it was night be- fore last that we met, wasn't it?"
 T think so," said Maxwell. II came over yesterday-Dover and Calais, you know-on business"
 '1 came over yesterday, too," said Lady Ravensrode "Folkstone and Boulogne. you know-also on business. My business is-frocks'
 Maxwell stroked his mustache He became conscious of the presence of Lady Ravensrodes maid. lowering at a discreet distance: also of the inter est which was being created in the minds and eyes of the passers-b by. who glanced at the English woman's gra- cious figure, copper gold hair. and vi- vacious beauty, with unmistakable ad- miration He looked at Lady Ravens rode, first furtively. then with cu- rlous determination in his hronzed face
 Send your maid away" he said. The frocks, am slre, can wait a little l-l want 10 talk to you. The fact

is, I'm in bit-no, I mean a good deal-of a hole. and I want your ad. vice."
 Lady Ravensrode obeyed this per- emptory order without a murmur.
 They sat down on a rustic seat under the refreshing shade trees of the Champs Elysees.
 Maxwell began tracing strange shapes in the gravel at his feet: he knitted his brow and pursed up his lips. and Lady Ravensrode watched him with tiny smile at the corners of her mouth. Presently he looked up. regarded her with a stony stare, and said:
 The fact Is that I've run away"
 Run away? With whom?"
 That" said Maxwell, "is feminine, but silly. ran away to think
 oh" she said, blankly.
 Well. I'll tell you the truth" he said, I'm running away from a wo- man"
 That" she replied. Ifs exactly what should expect of you"
 He looked quickly and suspiciously at her.
 "Ah;" he exclaimed. Then you do think me a coward?"
 T didn't say so." she said. "Is she pretty?"
 MdNWell rdlseu ms eyes ana stared ct her.
 Pretty" he said. ~'she-why. she Is the most beautiful woman in the world!"
 The honesty and simplicity of his tone were so evident that her inquiring eyes dropped before his.
 She Is to be congratulated that you are so fond of her" she said. softly "Ah. but then, she doesn't know" he answered. The thing is-ought I to tell her? That's what I want to know That's the question I want to decide. Oh, I'm a horrible coward about it."
 If you love her." said Lady Ravens rode. you certainly ought to tell her of your love for her. It's wrong not to: it's wicked
 Wrong? Wicked? Why?" he de-. manded, with signs of great surprise.
 Lady Ravensrode turned her face toward him and studied him with danc- ing eyes and a tightly-closed mouth Maxwell frowned still more gloomily.
 Why do you look at me like thatY' he asked. T know you're laughing at me, right away down in your heart.

Well" said Maxwell, T don't know. There's an awful lot to be said on both sides of the question. admire her talents and her cleverness. you know, just as I love her good qualities-and herself. She has always been very good to me. We are-friends."
 That may mean so much, or so little. Precisely how much does 1t mean?"
 Well" he said, we are friends enough to quarrel and to call each other names--I can't think of a better proof of our friendship"
 Tt is proof positive." she answered. 'J-I think you-that is. if you really wish my advice, and we are friends. aren't we. of almost the same calibre? think that you might-no, should speak to her. Besides-"
 "Yes?" he said 'Besides-whatr
 How do you know that she may not be-well. anxious that you should speak to her7" she said.
 Maxwell gazed at her scrutiniz- ingly.
 You mean that-that perhaps she cares for me?" he said.
 Tt may be so."
 He screwed up his lips as if to whistle.
 Upon my honor!" he said: q never thought of such a thing-it seemed too absurd. To think of mech? So-you really think ought to speak?"
 Yes" she answered.
 Maxwell looked round him. crip- pie was greatly interested in a parterre of flowers behind the wire fencing: no one else was near. His eyes came back to his companions face, and when she saw them she dropped her own.
 'T always was a clumsy beast" he said I've been trying to propose to you for a month, and I daren't And now I've done 1t pretty badly--in fact. don't know whether I've done 1t at all. but I wish you'd say yes or no. Margaret. for I'm shot If can stand the suspense any longer!"
 Lady Ravensrode slid her right hand along the seat
 Yes" she said Yes. It always was yes-if you'd known"
 Five minutes later the cripple stared with shining eyes at a shining gold coin.

and I want to know why. You see sometimes think John Maxwell, you'll be the luckiest man on earth if you car win her-try your luck!' But again think: Nonsense, don't make a foo of yourself, and
 Lady Ravensrode interrupted him quickly.
 What, by marrying herr" she said
 Good heavens. mol" answered Max we'll. NO. but by thinking that she would consent to marry me. You see it's here. She's young, and beautl- ful. and rich. and she is so much ad- mired that she might choose a hus- band amongst the greatest-she might marry a really great man." Every man Is really great in the eyes of some woman," said Lady Ravensrode.
 But consider-I am 43 years of age?' i said Maxwell.
 And the lady?-what Is her age? asked Lady Ravensrode.
 T believe she is 25-perhaps a little I more" he answered. 1 Lady Ravensrode laughed. You are certainly innocent" she said. T am 25, and I think that if I | ever marry again I should certainly have strong partiality for a husband at least fifteen years older than my | self"
 maxwell threw up his hands with a gesture of something like despair There 1t Is again" he said. I'm continually brought face to face with the fact that do not understand wo- men. I should have thought that a young and brilliant woman of 25 would have preferred to unite with a man of about her own age" And l suppose you think that a wo- man of 25 likes to marry a raw child of PIP" she said. smiling. Certainly you men are not distinguished for your intuition. But let us make progress think we have satisfactorily accounted for this disparity in age objection. may tell you. as a woman, that your lady of 25 will not object to you be- cause of your 43 summers"
 But even then,' he said, I've noth- ing to offer her. She's a brilliant wo- man-she knows everybody--she's big social reputation-I-well, I'm not ex- actly society man-Tm afraid my tastes are old-fashioned. In fact, I've a sneaking suspicion that like a quiet, stay at home family circle sort of life you know the sort of life that sort of man likes"
 Yes" she answered. T think do How do you know that-that she wouldn't like that sort of life. too?'
 Maxwell continued to trace patterns In the gravel.
