ITO the right when you reach the
river, please" she directed. "You will
find there Is scarcely any current. We
turn up the next stream"
There was something almost mysteri-
Gus, q little impressive, about the broad
expanse Of river into which they pres
emily turned Opposite were woods and
then a sloping lawn. From a house
hidden in the distance they heard the
sound Of a woman singing. They even
caught the murmurs Of applause as she
concluded. Then there was silence,
only the soft gurgling of the water
cloven by the punt pole. They glided
past the front of the great unlit house,
past another strip Of woodland, and
then UP a narrow stream.

then STOP"
They bumped against the bank. The
little backwater into which they had
turned seemed to terminate in bed Of
lilies whose faint fragrance almost
enveloped them. The trees on either
side made a little arch Of darkness.

Margaret said dreamily. Make your
self as comfortable as you can. There
are plenty Of cushions behind you.
This is where come for silence"
Francis obeyed her orders without
remark. For a few moments, speech
seemed impossible. The darkness was
20 intense that, although he was acutely
conscious Of her presence there, only
a few feet away, nothing but the barest
outline Of her form was visible. The
silence which she had brought him to
seek was all around them. There was
Just the faintest splash Of water from
the spot where the stream and the
river met, the distant barking Of
dog, the occasional croaking Of 4 frog
from somewhere in the midst Of the
bed of lilies. Otherwise the silence
and darkness were like a shroud.
Francis leaned forward in his place
His hands, which gripped the sides Of
the punt, were hot. The serenity of the
night Knocked him.

q little hoarsely.
She made no answer. Her silence
seemed to him more thrilling than
uords He loaned forward His hands
fell upon the soft fur which encom-
passed her. They rested there. Still
she did not speak. He tightened his
grasp, moved further forward, the
passion surging through his veins, his
breath almost failing him. He was so

The Retort Courteous.

The mid-Victorian Lady set out on
a quest for photograph records OF a
gay and jazzy variety. The day was
sad and dreary, wet under foot, foggy
and generally miserable. The shop
she entered was manned by a cora-
pletely discouraged and disheartened
group Of sales people. The girl at
the phonograph shop was plainly given
over to the most gloomy forebodings.
Abandoned to depression, her frOck
sagged, her hair was listless and
dropping Into this brooding melan-
choly the mid-Victorian Lady ruthless
ly broke and, intruding upon the
secret sorrow Of the Gloomy One,
briskly demanded: Have you
'Smiles?" The saleslady surveyed
space and in a colorless monotone
droned: "All out" as though she Sc
cretly rejoiced in the fact you
look it" rejoined the would-be pur-
chaser, at which smiles appeared OF

shop could dispense them or not

half In hope. He bent lower still. She
neither shrank away nor Invited him.
"Dear!" he whispered.
Her arms stole from underneath the
cloak, her fingers rested upon his
shoulders. He scarcely knew whether
It was q caress or whether she were
holding him from her. In any case 1t

Of the lilies seemed to intoxicate him.

not wholly failed. Yet his anxiety was
tumultuous, overwhelming. Then she
spoke, and his heart leaped again. Her
voice was more natural. 1t was not
a voice which he had ever heard be-
