"If the Jay of your own personal
love is withdnwn." Margaret Field
had said. one day in London. "the
seed is never lost. You may think it
is for a time: but. later, it shoots up.
mmrished by experience, growing into
a strong plant which will develop into
a flowering tree of many branches."
The truth of that, too, was dimly In
her mind as sne watched the stars
come out above the harbor--in her
heart the tired peace of one who, giv-
Ing up tilting at windmi!ls he can
never conquer, lays his hand upon
the plow which needs it. If solving
the-mystery 0f suffering could never
be ac('onplished; if her own personal
keynote to lmpplne.<s were lost; then
content she lnnst tie tO hohl out the
hand of fellowshii) to those cutup:m-
ions in hilt'or ,a'atersto help find it
for the world starving for love.
PerlutDs---who knows? that is the an-
swer to the riddle.
As darkness fell. she turned down
the 1lath over the r,)eks: cr,,ssed the
little bridge spanning the river; and
nulde her way to tile gray house, flxlll
which cheerful lights beckoned ....
She fumbled with the hamlle, turned
it : opened the door: tl}en s|ood for a
nlonlpllt blinking con fu.dl y : for
summthin big and dark had loonled
up in the small passage, hiding the
hanging lamp.
A great cry burst suddenly from the
girl's li0s. In the clark sle
turned ashy white; swayed: Chltehed
vainly at tile door-peg!; and would
have fallen, had she not been caught
by arns that hehl her so strongly that
they stopped her breath.
Ahm stood on the threshold,
VIII
It was only a small sittin room,
with an oil lamp and a crackling fire.
But all the worlds and all the heav-
ens were enclosed within its walls to
the two who ehmg together in their
rapture.
Wmderingly, ahnost reverently, tile
girl passed her hands over tim arms
that clasped her--touching the dark
hair and bronzed cheek half-fearfully,
scarcely believing in their reality,
looking upon him with bewildered,
darkened eyes ahnost afraid to trust
their own sight. The tall broad-shoul-
dered figure had lost not a,n inch of
its uprightness, nor had the head lost
its old dominant poise The few extn
lines round the smiling lips and glow-
ing eyes were swept up into the radi-
anoe which seemed to envelop him.
Yet, in the dark clothes of civiliza-
tion, he appeared subtly strange to
the half-clad, barefooted overlord of
savages of other clays.
"Yes." he said at lasL tehing her
hand lightly wandering over his arm.
"It's all real. Solid flesh--no ghost !"
He raised her chin in the old pos-
esslve way, and looked long into the
tlin face and dark-ringed eyes, which
told their own tale of suffering en-
dared; then he pressed her head to his
breast and held her close again in
silence, as If defying any fate to sep-
arat them now.
"But," she stammered faintly at
last, "how is it--why--I don't under-
stand--?"
"Why I'm not sleeping with my fa-
thet, as you all surmised? Well
that is your fault."
"Mine?"
He nodded. "When Babooma was
about to send me to my gods, you
conveniently sent him, instead, to the
shades of Valhallathat last bullet,
you know !"
Her eyes opened wide, and she
caught her breath.
"I--killed him? Iiilled Babooma
--a man-- ]"
Swiftly he closed her lips with his
own. with quick perception of the
effects which renewed elvlllzation
might have had upon the primitive In-
stincts aroused on the island.
"I owe my very life to you, wife of
heart," he whispered.
But his reflections were misplaced.
"Thank Cd !" she cried unexpected-
"I would still kill anybody--any
day--who attempted to hurt you."
"'Nora de Dieu!'" he echoed the
Frenchmen. "Our life will be a check-
ered career."
Then Bmara fully recognized once
more the old Alan of flesh and blood.
deep moods and light banter, lmtic
idealism and prompt action--delicious-
ly human, warm with love and life.
She suddenly laughed, the bewildered
ense of shock falling from her--the
first real spontaneous laugh of many
weeks.
"Alan! Alan! Nothing matters but
the fact that you are here--alive ! But
I can't understand it all. How was
such a mistake made?" -
"Very easily. Because I.Boreeau
didn't, of course, know friend from

"Oh, don't !" cried tie girl who had

his sh(e.flder.
