The dining room was exquisite.
The bare board walls were covered
with bOughs. Great brass bowls of
long stemmed cut flowers stood
around the room. The table was
beautiful in heavy satin damask, cry

Craig was astonshed. He had not

lighted only by numerous tall. uncap-

Craig, however, was a little quiet.
He was thinking of Lois tonight more
than he had allowed himself to do
for years. kirkland had told him
that she had married ana was a wild

was somewhere in the West trying to
get strong. - don't think she is

II was time for the salad. Craig
glanced at his plate, and half started
from his chair. The only person in
the world who could make salad look
like that was Lois Fleming. She
used to make it for him with her own
hands.
Lois was a splendid cook. Often
after the theatre, instead of going
for supper. she would whisper that
she had made him some salad, and
they would have cozy hour by them
selves in the den with'a dainty little
supper she had arranged herself.
Craig caught his breath sharply. He
must be dreaming. He stared at it a
moment and then slowly lifted his
fork and cut into it and tasted. Sure
ly Lois had made it. The dessert and
coffee were endless. He left the
dessert untasted. but drank the black
coffee. At last dinner was over.
On some pretence he made for the
kitchen. The others strolled outside.
A boy tried to stop him, but he got
past in time to see someone in white
dart out of the kitchen door. He
gave chase. He caught up to her as
she reached clump of grease wood.
