: CHAPTER XIV,

The winter continued cold and
clustering. Helen sketched no more
out of doors. But she did the interior
of the Dutch house and both sketches
we're sold on the opening day Of the
spring exhibition. Whenever Derring
chided her for careless disregard Of
her health, she would meekly call his
attention to this very pleasant and
tangible result Of the North Shore ex.
petition.
Derring gradually became conscious
Of another result-less palpable, hut
no less real. Since their first acquain-
lance he had known that her presence
had q marked effect on him-soothing
and quieting him II he were tired, and
Quickening his fancy and imagination

She would always gather the light and
life in everything and transmute it to
something softened and human.
She was trying the colors on the
edge Of her block, making ready to

Their eyes met, and they broke into

bluntly.

She had become absorbed in the

But there are other claims"
He was looking at her intently.
Grace must be sent to school and
the boys are hardly able to take care
of themselves; and there is mother.
They all depend on me. Don't you
see that 1t would be selfish?" She was
leaning forward and looking at him,
impersonally, with the old air Of COM
radeship.
But would help"
Il know. But you have no right to
marry yet. There would be children,

idly. Whatever she decided must be
right. But one phrase stirred his
pulses.

of the car two business men were

of the car two business men were
talking.
AS the day wore on, each person in
the car assumed for Derring distinct
Individuality. The sense of isolation
deepened. He entered into converse
ton with no one, but sat idly listen
ing to the flow of talk. @
AT times he watched the changing
landscape. Along the margin of each
little stream the willows grew yellow
In the sunshine. Across the plain q
mass OF low crimson marked where
the sap crept up at the touch of
spring. AS they approached the woods.
the crimson faded to soft, feathery
gray. Then they were among the
trees themselves, and1the sunshine,
slanting across the great trunks, hung,
caught in tangled underbrush, or rest
ed lightly on some tuft of moss or
dark, shining pool.
Derr1ng was impressed with the in
congruity of 1t all-his solitude in the
midst of the life that pressed so close
about him, the hum of busy talk and
the shrek Of the engine deep in the
woods where one never goes except
alone OF with some congenial soul.
With one glance he caught the fresh
ness Of the spring, and with the next,
the commonplace face and striped
trousers of the passenger across the
aisle.
His thoughts went to Helen and
their love. to the happiness of the
past year and the days that were be-
fore them. The car and its occupants
faded from sight. He brooded on the
beauty and mystery of their relation
the foreboding of danger-the nee
essary accompaniment of love- Great
happiness-deep suffering Sunlight
and shade. The capability Of sin in
man-at once the mark of the beast
and the promise Of divinity within

ed the New England hills. But what
ever foreboding the future might hold
for him, he no longer dreaded ito
power. He saw deep into its nature.
He who loves much will suffer much.
Throughout the journey the thought
stayed with him: and when. once or
twice, he felt the dread Of danger
near, he even rejoiced that distance
could not mar the closeness Of love.
The longing for her safety that stole
from his heart would in another man
have been . prayer.

They stood in the doorway, Just out
of sight OF the pupil. He was watch

that she looked pale and worn, az II
she had not slept.
"You are tired" he questioned in q
low tone.
She admitted that she was-"a lit

"No. Come. It will rest me t.

But If I come, shall speak," he in
sisted.

a moment, and then only said, as she
turned towards the studio, II will
wait for you"
He left the building, tumult Of Joy
and doubt in his heart. She had given
him permission to speak, but she
seemed to have refused his demand
before 1t was made. He dared not
hope. He hoped in spite of fear.
As the day wore on the fear sub
sided and the Joy Of love took pos
session of him. That, at least, she
could not take away, no matter what
she might refuse.
He found her alone, at work in the
gray afternoon light.
II am improving the last minutes, >
she said, looking up as he entered and
speaking lightly, as If eager to put
their meeting on commonplace foot

shame, he found himself thinking that
the trip would give him chance to
test the communication. He would
be gone only few days. Nothing
could happen. But at least he should
know what he had to expect during
the long weeks of vacation. So anx-
ious was he to make the experiment
that he almost forgot the dread Of
separation.
"Be as happy a. you cantor my
sake" he said laughingly as they
parted. Don't run any more risks
than you can help"
The morning train was full Of the
hum OF life. People seemed to be

He watched her us she sketched in
the outline of still-life study. She
was sitting as usual, with the light
falling full upon her. Yes, he had been
right. Her face was pale.
What is it?" he asked abruptly, at
last, in q low tone.
II am afraid of It," she answered
quietly.
"Why?"
Because things will never be the

shadows in the corners grew darker
and heightened softly toward the cen.

ing for her to speak. The harmonious
tones and subdued colors seemed to
