CHAPTER ~.

The churchyard gate was opened
and closed noisily. They both glanced
up. Stephen Strangewey was coming
slowly toward them along the flinty
path. Louise, suddenly herself again,
rose briskly to her feet. Stephen had
apparently lost none Of his dourness
Of the previous night. As he looked
toward Louise, there was no mistaking
the slow dislike in his steely eyes.
"Your chauffeur, madam, has just
returned" he announced. "He sent
word that he will be ready to start at
one o'clock"
Louise, inspired to battle by the al
most provocative hostility of her elder
host, smiled sweetly upon him.
"You can't imagine how sorry am
to hear it." she said. II don't know
when, in the whole course of my life,
have met with such a delightful ad-
venture or spent such a perfect morn
ingT
Stephen looked Mt her with level, dis
approving eyes-at her slender form In
its perfectly fitting tailored gown; at
her patent shoes, 80 obviously insult
able for her surroundings. and at the
faint Vision Of silk stockings.
"If I might say SO without appear.

faint sarcasm, "this would seem to be

She fingered there, absolutely bewil-
dered by the rapid growth in her brain
and senses of what surely must be
some newly kindled faculty of appre-
ciation. There was q beauty in the
world which she had not felt before.
She turned her head almost lazily at
the sound Of a mans voice. A team OF
horses, straining at . pillow. were COM
Ing round the bend of the field. and by
their side, talking to the laborer who
guided them, was John Strangewey.
She watched him as he came into
sight up the steep rise. He walked in
step with the plowmau by his side, but
without any of the laborer's mechani-
cal plod-with a spriug in his foot
steps, indeed, pointing with his stick
along the furrow. 30 absorbed in the
instructions he was giving that he was
almost opposite the gate before he was
aware of her presence. He promptly
abandoned his task and approached her.
"Good morning! You have slept
well?" he called out.
Better. think. than ever before in
my life," she answered. Differently.
at any rate. And such an awakening |"
He looked at her, little puzzled. The
glow upon her face and the sunlight
upon her brown hair kept him silent.
He was content to look at her and won
der.
'1Tell me-" she demanded impetu-
ously, sis this a little corner Of fairy
land that you have found? Does the
sun always shine like this3 Does the
earth always smell as sweetly, and are
your trees always in blossomf Does
your wind always taste as If God had
breathed the elixir of life into it7"
He turned around to follow the
sweep Of her eyes. Something Of the
same glow seemed to rest for q mo-
ment upon his face.
''It is good" he said, 'to find what
you love SO much appreciated by some
one else"
They stood together in a silence al
most curiously protracted. Then the
plownlan passed again with his team
of horses and John called out some In
structions to him. She followed him
down to earth.
"Tell me. Mr.. Strangewey," she in
quired, where are your farm build
ingsT
"Come and will show you," he an
swered. opening the gate to let her
through. "Keep close to the hedge un-
til we come to the end Of the plow:
and then-but no. I won't anticipate.

cended, the orchard and the long, low
house on the other side seemed to lie
almost at their feet The road and the
open moorland beyond, stretching to
the encIrcling hills, came more clearly
into sight with every backward glance.
Louise paused at last, breathless.
"Is it the home Of the fairies you
are taking me tor she asked. III you
have discovered that, NO wonder you
find us ordinary wsmen outside your
livesI"
He laughed.
"Thers are NO fairies where we are

at night with women in whom he was
unable to feel the slightest interest,
always with that faraway feeling in
his heart. struggling hour by hour with
that curious restlessness which seemed
to have taken a permanent place In
his disposition. He was on his why
home to Penk Hall. he knew exactly
the welcome which was awaiting him.
He knew exactly the news he would
receive. He raised his whip and
cracked 1t viciously in the air.
Stephen was waiting for him, as he
had expected, in the dining room. Tho
elder Strangewey was seated in his &c
customed chair. smoking his pipe and
reading the paper. The table was laid
for a meal, which Jennings was pre-
pairing to serve.
"Back again. John?, his brother re-
marked. looking at him flxedly over
his newspaper.
John picked up one ef two letter..
glanced them over, and flung them
down upon the table. He had exam
ined every envelope for the last few
months with the same expectancy, and
thrown each one down with the same
throb of disappointment
"As you see."

"Not very. Have they finished the
barley fields, Stephen?"
"All in at eight o'clock"
There was a brief silence. Then
Stephen knocked the ashes from his
pipe and rose to his feet
"John," he asked, "why did you pull
up on the road theref"
There was no immediate answer.
The slightest of frowns formed itself
upon the younger mans face.
"How did you know that pulled

'1That is another matter" he con-
fessed. "You come from a world OF
which I know nothing. All can say
is that would rather think Of you
as something different"
She laughed at his somber face and
patted his arm lightly.

THE INTERNATIONAL
SUNDAY SCHOOL
ASSOCIATION
What II Is!
BY John l.. Alexander.
nembership

The International Sunday School
Association is an organization of Sun
day school workers irreipeotive Of their
denominatioual lies The constituency
Of the Association, then, is made up
from the Suuday-school workers Of
every evangelical Christian denomina-
ton, but membership in the Association
is purely on a voluntary basis Any
Sunday school worker who wishes to
associate himself or herself with other
Sunday.schooi workers is considered a
member Of the International Sunday
School Association by virtue Of the
simple fact OF being a worker In the
Sunday-school.
The international Sunday School
Association does not compete with the
Sunday School Boards the denomina-
lions, but is rather the common meet
ing place for Sunday. schoo. workers OF
all denominations.

Relation of Denominations

The following paragraphs, adopted
by the International convention in 1911
defines the relation of the international
Assoc alton to all evangelical denomi-
nation:
"The international Association, in
short, disclsims the role Of either mas
ter or servant to the denominations,
or as having itself any authority what
ever over the denominations. When
ever the door of Sunday.school service
is open to the International Associa
ton or it's auxliares, these assoc.a-
tions will gladly enter and serve as the
denominations severally or collectively
may desire, and in turn will gratefully
receive from the denominations like
service and support, but it will thus co
operate aud serve the denominations
only as ally and friend, not as master
or mere servant. The best service the
International Association can render
to the denominations is when 1t helps
the denomination to do its owd work
effectively through its own (lnterna-
tional) agencies, and as such steadfast
and servicable ally the International
Association may confidently claim and
receive the cordial support of the
demon atoms "
