do for their country. He only knew
that they were together, and took it
to mean that ahey were more than ever
in love with each other.
Mandel was bright man. But he
was also a worldly man. He had no
conception of the fire of patriotism
that burned in those two who were
ready to give their lives for their
eountry--also who both loved adven-
ture, which love, took not a whit from
their love of country.
Ruth dropped. Unosteptatiously
Mandel tried to make things easy for
her, to make her happy. Occasionally
he gave her theater tickets, saying:
at must be lonely for you now that
Mr.. Haekett is in camp. Take some
friend and see that show 1t will help
you to pass the time He wisely
never offered to take her himself. Or.
again, he would order some flowers
sent her, saying: "You looked a bit
depressed today. l thought they might
cheer you up" Then he would COM
menee to talk Of something else to
evade her thanks. But the thoughtful
ness of his acts touched her, and in
way comforted Ruth in her loneliness.
Then one night after she had gono
to bed the telephone rang. Brian would
rush up to see her, he said over the
wire, but they were to sail immediate
ly.
Ruth stood holding the receiver in
her hand for several minutes after he
had hung up. While she knew he was
to go, it had come with startling sud
denness, as such things always do. Sud
denly she sat down, her hand at her
throat. 1t was hard to breathe Brian,

her secret. Had she any right to keep
it from him
Mandel had noticed that Ruth was
unlike herself; that her work, always
before done so easily, now seemed a
burden; but he was far from suspect
ing the cause. He laid her lassitude,
her pale face and shadowed eyes, to
the fact that Brian was ,oing overseas.
His age preeluded his being called
to do actual fighting, To be truthful
he was, perhaps, for the first time he
had known Ruth, glad he was so much
older than she. Not that he was not
