couraged her with his voice, the more
infatuated he became with her
Mary Blackstone's image could be
recalled only by an effort of memory.
And yet it was only few days since
he had fancied himself in love with
her. He confessed this to himself
more than once, and could but feel
ashamed and sheepish. How long
would it be before he fancied himself
in love with Celestia. after how long
a separation would he discover that
he did not love her In the least? He
had no stability. Was he never to
have serious purpose in life? Love?
Even hate?
All of sudden they caught glimpses
of blue water between the tree stems,
and in a few moments they saw
before them and below them a
lovely lake with densely wooded
shores and in its midst densely
wooded island.
OH" exclaimed Celestia. "But this
earth is beautiful"
Remind you at all OF heaVen?"
asked Tommy, a little mlschievously.
Not in the leastl" said Celestial,
and as II she did not wish to discuss
the comparative beauties Of the two
places. lis that our island?" she

my. and now the work is almost all
over"
They descended the narrow strip of
land which divided the lake from the
forest, and here Tommy told Celestia
to sit down and rest while he hunted
for the dugout and got il into the
water.
he returned in ten minutes, pad
ding quietly, and found Celestia play

the ground. Once he poked It into
ground hornets nest and had narrow
and undignifed escape from being
badly stung.
He led them 10 the shores Of the
lake and pointed quietly across at the
island. Even Stilliter could see pale

among the trees

And they waited till dark Then

and slipped quietly into the lake.
Meanwhile, with Tommy and Celes-
tia all had gone well. Tommy's old
camp was less dilapidated than he ex-
pected. A few balaam boughs had made
the rotten roof sound above and sweet
beneath Celestia had had a long rest
and then she had followed Tommy
along the shores of the island, while
he fished. Finally Tommy's long casts
were rewarded. He hooked fine
trout and began to draw him strongly
toward the beach. In her excitement
and eagerness to help, Celestia ran into
the shallow water, stepped in deep
hole and, falling forward. was for the

Sand, said Tommy.
"Sandl" cried Celestial.
Didn't you ever play in the sand
when you were little?"
Il used to play with diamonds and

wonderful. See. you can write in II

And, indeed, with her forefnger for
pencil, she made an excellent carica-

Who taught you to do that, Ce-
lestia?"
AN angel" she said simply.
WELL" said Tommy, I've heard Of
people who could draw like angels
butch, Celestia, aren't you little
tired of playing this heavenly origin
business on me? l don't take any
stock in It,"
She looked at him with a sudden
grave wonder.
When tell you that come from
heaven, you don't believe me?"
why, Celestial" he said, meeting
her gaze with equal gravity, you're
Just a regular girl. Why there's blood
on your cheek. where a deer fly has
bitten you"
You've got to believe me-" she
said, and 1t seemed to Tommy she
was trying to master him with her
eyes.
What are you trying to do to me?"
he said. Hypnotic meY'
And then he laughed, and looked
SO brown and handsome and good
natured that Celestia had to smile at
him.

Having located the partridge Tom
my Assembled" his trout rod and
with the end of the line, made a run
ming moose. Then he began very qui
city to poke the rod up among the
branches of the spruce tree. An in
terested clucking attested to the fact
that more eyes than Celestia's were
on Tommy.
Tommy, his right hand claspins
the butt of the rod, his thumb brak
ing the reel. reached gradually higher
and higher until his arm was extended
to its full length. He added few
inches to his reach by standing on tip
toe. But even this was not enough. So
Tommy bent his knees a little and
then Jumped.
Before his feet regained the earth
frightful squawking and Tapping
arose in the spruce tree, and then
there was dragged from it what
looked like a pinwheel going at top
speed.
1T has wings like an ANGEL she
said, only darker"
Tommy was just going to say: Its
got whittier meat than an angel" but
stopped himself in time, and changed
to:
Even people who come here to
make the world better, Celestial. have
to eat"
And he slipped the dilapidated bird
into his pocket.
A few minutes later they reached
Tommy's camp, and after he had
given Celestia cupful of spring wa
ter he cut fresh balsam boughs and
made a thick mat for her to rest
on, and rolled his coat and some other
odds and ends into a pillow, so that
she could watch him make the fire
and do the cooking.
For lunch they had tea, biscuits Zone
of Tommys most lamentable culinary
failures) and the partridge. Cooked,
he no longer looked like the victim of
murder, but very beautiful and appe-
tizing.
Celestia ate her full share and then
lay back on her balsam boughs and
watched Tommy fill and light a pipe
why do you do that?" she asked
Wasn't the partridge cooked
enough?''
Tommy narrowed his eyes at her
and for some moments did not an

what to make of you at all. First you
say you come from heaven and act
as If you did, then you pretend that
you never saw a man smoke before

do to me, anyway? Is that really the

He went into the little hut and
brought out the buffalo robe, which he
had left there. 1t was very much the
worse for wear. but huge and warm.
Now" he said, you take that off
and put this on"
Then he turned his back and walked
swiftly away.

her, when you've changed" And he
walked at distance, frowning and
laughing, until he heard her calling to
him. ..-...I
Are you angry?" she said what

men are looking at them. It's just the
custom, that's all. It's considered
very bad luck. OF course. I've never

But Celestial did not encourage him
10 speak lightly OF heaven. And he
dried her theatrical white dress and
made shift to iron 1t with a smooth
hot stone, and watched her from the
corner Of his eye. and thought how
'harming she looked even in that
