bye. And I'll say goodbye to you,
major"
dGood-bye," muttered the major,
attempting to clasp his fat little hands
behind his back.
Haltren, who had no idea of offering
his hand, stood still a moment, glanc-
ing at the cabin skylights; then, with
a final nod to Darrow, he deliberately
slid overheard and waded away, knee
deep, towards the palm-fringed shore.
Darrow could not contain himself.
" Major Brent" he said, 81 suppose
you don't realize that Haltren saved
the lives of every soul aboard this launch.
The majors infamed eyes popped
out.
"Eh? What's that?"
More than that" said Darrow,
che came back from safety to risk
his life. As it was he lost his boat and
his gun"
"Damnationl'' broke out the major;
''you don't expect me to ask him 90

And he waddled off to the engine
room, where the engineer and his as
sistant were tinkering at the wrecked
engine.

But at this respectful point, her
ear, which had been listening in vain
for his returning step, heard now the
distant click of the closing front door.
He was indeed gone.
Gone. And gone to meet the girl

Now what could he mean by that?
And whom could he mean? What
girl was to be at Brierly's? Margaret
jumped excitedly to her feet.
Flying to the bell, she rang instantly.
Kitty was clever, but, not being
systematically so, she appeared without
wraps and was rated for it. The rating
kept up even after the wraps had been
produced and were being draped about
their owner.

a drop of blood from the stricken heart
of love-" she thought.
Again his glance sought the clock
and this time he started exaggeratedly
when he beheld its warning.
"And am supposed to be dining
at Brierly's," he murmured, as if to
himself, and reaching for his hat and
stick, mot much time to lose" Here
he faced Margaret, showed composed

bowed slightly. 81 beg your pardon,

He turned on his heel, stroke through
the curtains, whipped them conclu-
sively to behind him and disappeared.

angrily. Then she bethought her
self that she was using a name too
familiar for the conditions.
