He Could Imagine Her Pretty Head.

but her heart and mind and conscience
were troubling her till she stopped
short at last and said:
"Tm sorry, but I'D rather not
dance any more-here."
Duane paused in a moments
chagrin. Then he sighed: "All right"
They retreated to their table, and he
looked at her sadly, and she sadly at
him. Then he seemed to like her even
better than before, and he said, with a
very tender smile:
"Want to so home"
eff you don't mind"
When they came out upon the veran-
da of the hotel the lake was a vast
charger of frosted silver among the
hills. They stood admiring it for a
moment and the music from the hotel
seemed to come from another world.
He helped her into the car and they
whisked away southerly.
He returned to the road along the
Hudson, and itwas so beautiful in the
moonglow that it seemed a pity to
hurry through the wonderland at such
speed. And what was she going back
to that she should be in such haste?
She limited as much to Duane, and
he bettered the suggestion. Not only
did he check the speed, but at one
wooded cliffside with a vista of pecu-
liar majesty he wheeled out Of the
road and stopped the car, shut down
the chuttering engine and turned off
the strenuous lights.
They sat utterly content till Duane
shook off the blissful stupor. They
could not stay here thus forever. They
could not stay much longer. It was
growing cold and late.
He did not dare to look at Daphne.
He did not quite need to. He could
imagine her pretty head and the
drowsy, adorable eyes, the lips pursed
with childish solemnity, the throat
stem in the urn contour of her Shout
2ders, the vaselike curves of her young
torso. He imagined these from men,
DRY, for they now were swaddled in a
thick m%otorcoat. But without turning
his head he could see her little hands
clasped idly at her knees, the little
gloves turned back at the wrist. He
thought that he would like to take
them in his-he would like to take all
OF her in his arms, into his heart, into
his keeping.
Yet he did not want to marry her.
He did not admire marriage in its re-
suits as he saw them in other people.
Like many another, he cherished
wicked ideals because the everyday
virtues worked out so im~perfectly, so
unbeautifully.
Daphne was musing almost as
vaguely. On the river a yacht at an.
Choir poised like a swan asleep. She
would like to own a yacht. On the
opposite side Of the river along the
road she could see motorcars like in
quisitive crickets with cleaning eyes
and feelers Of light. She would like
to W a motor or two.
