CHAPTER XxXVlII.

Three days had passed, and Orlando
Brotherson sat in his room at the no
tel before a table laden with tele
grams, letters and marked newspa
perS. The news of his achievement
had gone abroad, and Derby was, for
the moment, the center of interest for
two continents.
His success was an established fact
The second trial which he had made
with his car, this time with the whole
town gathered together in the streets
as witnesses, had proved not only the
reliability of it's mechanism, but the
great advantages which it possessed
for a direct flight to any given point
Already he saw fortune reckoning to
him in the shape of an unconditional
offer of money from a irst-class
source; and better still-for he was a
man of untiring energy and bound
less resource-that opportunity for
new and enlarged effort which comes
with the recognition of ones excep-
tional powers.
All this was his and more. A sweet
er hope, a more enduring joy had fol
lowed hard upon gratified ambition.
Doris had smiled on him-Dorisi She
had caught the contagion of the uni
versal enthusiasm and had given him
her first ungrudging token of approval.
1t had altered his whole outlook on
life in an instant, for there was an
eagerness in this demonstration which
proclaimed the relieved heart. She no
longer trusted either appearances or
her dream He had succeeded in con-
quering her doubts by the very force
of his personality, and the shadow
which had hitherto darkened their in
tercourse had melted quite away. She
was ready to take his word now and

follow. Love does not lag far behind
an ardent admiration.
Fame! Fortune! Love! What
more could a man desire? What
more could this man, with his strenu-
Gus past and an unlimited capacity for
an enlarged future, ask from fate than
this. Yet, as he bends over his letters,
lingering some, but reading none be-
yond a line or two, he betrays but a
passing citation, and hardly lifts his
head when a burst of loud acclaim
comes ringing up to his window from
some ardent passer-by: "Hurrah for

pass, he slowly regathers his strength
and rises, in the end, a conqueror.
Nevertheless. he knows, even in that
moment of regained command, that
the peace he had thus bought with
strain and stress is but momentary:
that the battle is on for life: that the
days which to other eyes would carry
a sense of brilliancy-days teeming
with work and outward satisfaction
would hold within their hidden depths
a brooding uncertainty which would
rob applause of its music and even
overshadow the angel face of Love.
He quailed at the prospect, material

terminable days! In his unbroken
strength and the glare of the MONDAY
sun, he forgot. to take account OF the
nights looming in black and endless
procession before him. 1t was from

darkness and makes grave of the
heart while happier mortals sleep.

Twenty-Five men are being worked at
