callei again. but she remained in her
room and he did not see her. He re-
turned home by the path over the
cliffs his thoughts filled with visions
Of woman's hair and laughing eyes
and sweet voice and brown arms
with dimples at the elbows. When
he reached the place Of their first
meeting he had fully awakened.
She remained in her room, and they
forgot to mention the fact that he had
called. She dreamed Of a strong face
and broad shoulders. Of muscular arms
and a low musical laugh. The next
morning all was changed in their little
world. The man was chained by the
deep humility Of love. The woman
mistook this for indifference.
The woman was fearful of mourning
the mans displeasure and of the
thought Of losing him. They were in
the tolls Of love. swayed by petty mis-
understanding, selfconscious and
cropping blindly in the dark, the one
fearing to offend the other.
ghus the days wore on and summer
was drawing to a close. Dame Con-
ventionality had resumed her sway
Hats appeared, hair was no longer tied
in a careless knot. They became
formal and distant And the man
could not speak of love to her when
even his attempts at friendship were
apparently not acceptable.
The vacations Of both had come to
a close but each dreaded to 80. It
was the woman who first decided to
return home. They met one evening
and the hearts Of both we're heavy as
they thought, this will be the last
time"
He was conventionally formal. Sud
denly her woman's intuition saw II
all in a flash. She prepared to go
He took her hand. In a moment he
found her in his arms. He never knew
how it happened.
Dear one" he was saying. Dear
one. / did not know--until now-hov
love you"
She did not reply. But he felt thai
he was happier than ever in his life
before.

velvet and gold. made his appearance
early, and was most fascinating and
debonnaire, paying much attention to
the ladies'. OF all the gallant and
courteous gentlemen present none
could pay compliment or whisper
a sentiment nothing so fetchingly as
he. In fact, his very gallantry
brought about his undoing. AS the

was requested to make his adieus, but

called to assist him. When lol the
mask fell from his face, and behold a
