out. 4iiey grew Wi1e HEain ana dwe1t dreamily on the mans slim figure. She saw many things about him she had never noted before. His hair was crisp and touched with premature gray at the temples; his shoulders were broad and his hips very narrow He had good "boot leg" but his feet were small enough to preserve bal ance even there In spite of his height. he was well-knit by grace of the life he had led.
 "He is very strong" thought Andrea as she remembered how lightly he had swung her into his arms. Then she began to think of other things about him. He never was too tired to shave before the evening meal. He had shown an almost uncanny tact in fore seeing and preventing the embarrass- ing situations that one would have thought inevitable under the circum- stances of their life together. He never forgot. He had called her "my dear girl" once and she had shown that she hated it. It was enough.
 How old are you. White Mani" she asked.
 "Thirty-four. normally" he an swered instantly, and went on with lis absorbing reading almost without a break.
 Andrea fell silent, even her thoughts stopped talking. Gradually the flow ing voice possessed her, picked her up lightly, bore her away and away In other words, she slept as children sleep when put to bed in the good old way
 When she awoke, hours later, the room was heavy with the acrid smell of lanterns burned too low, but to make up for that. the rain had censed and sunlight poured in through the open door. Msungo was sitting as he had sat. reading as he had heen read ing. The flow of his voice was ex- actly the same as though he himself had been caught in current that would not let him stop.
 Andrea drew a qulvering breath. She saw instinctively the workings of his mind. He wished her to awake without awaking--to come to the new day with the selfsame smile in her heart that had been there when she slept. He called upon her to play the game through and she decsled to do it. She stretched her bare arms, yawned, rubbed her eyes with doubled fists, laughed and then tbrew out both hands to him.
 Take me back" she said.
 The book fell from his hands. He turned and stared it her with the hungry eyes of man who sees for the first time one of the rarest of Gods crentures-namely, woman whose youth stands by her in the disheveled morning, defies the ugly finger of gross slumber and proclaims her love ly beyond the limits set by the wrin- kling seams of coarser and less blessed fabrics. For moment his gaze wavered as though before too strong light, then 1t steadied and his face grew stern. He arose.
 Come on,n he said.
 She threw her arms about his neck he picked her up, sarong and all, and passed solemnly the length of the GOV cred way. He could feel her face pressed hard against his shoulder and her loosened hair was like a cloud beneath his chin. Her arms clung to him tightly. her hody tremhled her

 He dropped her on her cot with a thud that surprised the six straddling legs of that sturdy campaigner into stringent protest and incidentally startled one young lady.
 There you are. you little devil" he growled and strode from the room with the satisfied air of a dog who has just carried home eight pounds of prime roast intact.
 Andrea watched him go, then she arose. took the cord from her bath robe and advanced upon the door to the covered way. She closed it, let down the bar and with the cord bound it in place. She tied knot after hard knot. and as she drew each one of them tight she said. 'Just to give you time to think twice. Andrea Pellor.'
