''Gerty!' expostulated Hardin.
"Gerty!' - implored Innes.

AS the three passed out Of the dining

different to his coming, as she meant
it should. And it turned him back to
dark corner in the honeysuckle-

many evenings with her, where once
he had held her hand. where he told
her that he loved her. For he had
loved her, or at least he thought he

he had brought that waiting look into
her eyes, and had run from it?
Should man ask woman to give
her life into his keeping until he is
quite sure that he wants it? He was
revamping his worn defense. Should
he live up to minute of surrender, of
