he enjoys. II II Is q company OF ar

this that he prepares himself. We
are conscious that we receive innu-
ences from each other by preparing
the mind to be susceptible to those In

CHAPTER vlI-continued.

Beware of the military, Ethel--es-
pecialIy when he's Irish" she warned
Ethel.
In another moment Miss Willoughby
and Captain Redmond were alone, she
herself seated upon the wide settee.
But the captain, apparently dared not
trust himself nearer her than the stool
upon which he perched Just where he
could not touch her. There had been
time when he and Ethel were undis-
guisedly fond OF each other. But now
he was scarcely sure of her senti-
ments toward him.

planned. She had no wish to be too

never to remain long in serious mood.

that the mercurial Irishman could ever
long be that.

he said with just hint Of sadness. In
spite Of the gayety that his friends
loved IN him, there were many times
when Captain Redmond had to fight
hard to dispel the Celtic melancholy
that was his natural heritage. But
there, there-tell me about yourself"
he begged.
But Ethel was not ready to do that.

with him.

Under the provisions of this oOnstitu-
