The temptation had almost seized him when suddenly the car sprang back at the ninth floor, and the lever refused to work. There was one horrible, sickening moment as they fell a few feet before the safety brakes worked, but in that instant he bad caught her in his arms and held ber close to him. And she did not struggle. “We're here for keeps,” one of the men said. “I know the game. It means hours until they take the top of the car off, and you do a sort of ladder marathon up to the next floor. We're in luck it's no worse.” There was confusion above and be- low them now. On each side a car halted. Orders were being given, and plenty of encouragement was shouted to the imprisoned ones. Morley's arm was still around the girl's waist, but she moved away trom fit. “Are we really here for hours?” she asked the operator. “'Frald so, lady. No danger. Brakes will hold all right. Better sit down on the floor of the car and take it easy. The worst thing will be missing your linch.” She did not take ' the advice, but leaned back in the corner. There were five other passengers besides themselves, all men. They turned their backs and clung to the grillwork of the car, watching the reliet work and talking to people on the next floor. “Well,” she said finally, “why don’t you talk? [ can't help myself now.” “What would you have done it we had been dashed down this shaft to death just now?” “Why, nothing. There wasn't time.” “There was time for me to take you in my arms, Kit,” He was speaking 80 low she could hardly catch his words. “Kit, my last consclous act would have been a kiss, do you hear me?”’ “l don't doubt it at all. You are capable of turning even death to your own uses.” He laughed. And while the work of 1escue went on about them, bung there in midair, with only the brakes to hold them, Morley took his one chance and fought against the odds that fate had laid against him. They bad spent the summer at the same re- sort, had fallen in love almost at first sight. And the very day after the en- gagement she has sent back his ring with a cool little note that she did not Florida care for second-hand goods.
