CHAPTER LII.

ooh, Peg, darling, isn't it just delight
full, isn't it like fairyland-so strange
and new and different? And-oh, Peg,
isn't he handsome and sweet, and dear
and lovely and delightful? And he loves
we so! You can't think what bliss it is!
Oh, l am happy! The happiest girl in
the world Why don't you kiss me, you
sober old silly Peg, and tell me you
think he's the handsomest man in the
world and the dearest and the cleverest
and the nicestf Why don't you, Peg?"
They had arrived. The long voyage
between London and Singapore was be-
hind them, the voyage up from Singa-
pore to Kuala Bank was over, and they
were in Douglas Stewards bungalow,
and the wedding had been arranged for
the next day.
Douglas Stewart had himself met them
at Port Elliot A handsome man he was,
with an olive skin, soft and silky man
ner, and piercing dark eyes. Those eyes
set Peg against him. 1t seemed to her
they were somewhat sinister and that
thev were too close together. He was to
have come down to Singapore to meet
them, and there had been floods of tears
from Ethel because he had not, but he
had explained in letter, which even
Peggy had to acknowledge was perfec-
ton, that he had been i'll and had not
recovered in time. And all the wav up
to Kuala Bank on the journey by the
funny little railway he had been kind
ness and consideration itself
1--WE should have been married in Port
Elliot" he said. with a tender look at
the girl, whose fairylike pink and white
beauty seemed emphasized beside him,
"but the parson has gone on an expedi-
ton into the Jungle with Christian Pc
trie and one of the lieutenants from the
man-of-war, and / thought, my sweet,
the nearer we got to him the sooner we
should attain happiness"
It was all like fairyland to the girls,
who had never been ont of England be-
fore-the gorgeous tropical bush, the
graceful palms, the twining creepers, the
dense vivid greenery that shut them in
on every side, blotting out even the
brilliant golden light of the sun himself.
Peg had time to drink it all in, but the
other two were occupied with each 9th
er, and she felt little uncomfortable.
These two who wer looking into each
Others eyes ought to have been married
in civilized Singapore. Here they were
out in the jungle entirely at this mans
mercy. And Peg did not like the man.
She felt il more and more as she stole
glances at him when he was not looking.
And vet she asked herself why. Why
should she distrust him? He was Ger
tainfy vew good looking, and his letter
had been very nice, all that the most ex-
acting girl could desire; and yet Some
how she did not ike going up into the
Jungle alone with him. But then she
could not desert Ethel. She had prom
ised her brother to stay with her, and
STAY with her she felt she must She
thought Il all over in the train. she

stepmother would think it queer was
really no reason at all.
The girl seemed to read her thoughts.
Don't be frightened. If you always
go on in the same humdrum fashion
you'll never have any pleasure, and don't
you get tired sometimes of the hum
drum ways and want to break out ?

so do l." said Peggy fervently.
There, | knew it! Run away, Ted,
like what our solicitors say to her she
can change her mind"
But Peggy did like what the Rules
solicitor said 70 her-she liked it very
much indeed. But she was not entirely
without little forethought, and when
they were comfortably settled at the ho-
tel she went and saw her own kindly old
Mr.. jackson, whom she had known since
she was little child.
My dear" he said, looking at her over
his spectacles, ''if the firm you mention
say it is all right it is, and if you ask
my advice | say go. 1t is not good for
a girl to live mewed up in the country
as you are. The two ladies will be
| shocked, but they will have forgotten all
| about it inside a week, and really think
you have right to consider yourself"
Thank you," said Peggy. She thought
his advice we'll worth taking, and she
went back to the hotel smiling. Then
Mr.. Rule took her aside and spoke to her
gravely:
My dear young lady, you know how
anxious / am you should keep Ethel
company, but there is one thing / am
bound to tell you. This Douglas Stew
art is a Eurasian. That is why I am

Neither do l; but, you see, Ethel does
and she's doing the marrying, not you
or l."
How dare you let her? A pretty in
nocent little girl like she is! said Peggy
Indignantly.
| Rule shrugged his shoulders.
Ethel may be pretty little innocent
as you say, but she's got will of her
own Her mother left her heaps of cash
| to make ducks and brakes with, and
she's quite independent. She fell in

ALHOLANI OPENS
WITH MORE ROOM

During the last few weeks work has
been in progress at Aliiolani College,
which reopens today, in rearranging the
positions of the former school build
ings to make them more convenient
for their various uses, and in construct
ing additional dormitories and class
rooms. This latter work has been rend-
cred necessary by the large number of
students who have recently enrolled, so
that the school is not only provided
with accommodations for all who are
entering this term, but for any addi-
tioAal ones who may join during the
year.
Today promises to be very busy one
for the college on the hill, but with
its enlarged corps of teachers and its
better facilities for conducting its
work it looks forward to successful
wear.
