rose, two yellow roses and bit of
welgella. At last he came to her pop

Another woman would have smiled at
the idea of his adding one Of these
cleaning garish, yide-petaled things
to his odd bouquet, but she did not
smile. She was tense by this time
with watchfulness.
After some hesitation he clipped off
a poppy and put 1t in the middle of
his bunch of flowers. 1t looked
strange, for he eyed 1t frownlngly. He

the morning light among her flowers

man in his gray business suit, crisp
