He laughed and caught her hand
"A woman's promises" he said, "are

there with the wind"
Can you think that Of met" Corinne
demanded. and love me?''

Hugo?"
At the look on her face he turned
on his heel and went away, knowing
tnat here at least was one woman
whose will was not the winds will.
A little later. as Maurice came along
the road from his evening toll. he found
Corinne at the foot OF the pine tree,
sobbing.
Oh, what am going to do?" she
said to him. Must / live my life
alone, Maurice!'
They were simple folk, holding on as
best they could to q simple faith. More
worldly people might have felt them
selves absolved from a promise given
In q At OF temper. but Corinne. having
given her word, would not go back
on It.
After little while Maurice said: Il
am going away. You must learn to love
some one else. Corinne. Your oath per-
tains only to Hugo and to me. When l
am gone you win forget me-
NO. she whispered, mo-"
She chung to him in the gathering
darkness. but presently he said: Dear
heart. we must go. hear the roll of
thunder In the west"
As they went down the path the play
OF the lightning showed them the way.
The wind. coming up, first whispered,
then sang. then shouted, through the
pines.
We must rum" Maurice told the
girl; "there Is the old shepherds hut

They gained the shelter as the rain
came. Maurice found bit of candle
and In the dim illumination each
could see the despairing face Of the
other.
When / go away" Maurice said,

She came over and knelt beside him,
laying her head against his arm. Il
shall never marry" she murmured
"Oh, Maurice, shall never"
Her words ended in a shrek as she
flung herself In his arms. Save mel"
she begged. ooh, Maurice!"
Half stunned by the. glare and the
crash that frightened her, Maurice
rose and went to the window.
"Corinne," he cried sharply, as an.
other flash lighted the hill. come here
and look!"
A third fash, and again his exultant
voice rang out:
ut struck the pine tree. See. It has
fallen. Corinne!"
When the storm was over they view
ed the havoc of wind and storm.
Broken and burned, the pine tree lay
