When Kenneth Maldon, tennis- arbed and carrying a racket, passed : > ;ubhgwd to possess his soul in patience down the sandy, pine-bordered road leading from Sandoon hotel to the tenis court, he saw, instead of the ath- letic figure of Jean McNarth, who had agreed to join him there in a game, a sunny-haired, organdy-clad vision seat- strained expectancy. At his approach she rose and began EL.

Another girl on the other side of the mountain invited them to finish out the week with her on the ranch. But I un- derstand the whole bunch are comin’ back Saturday night to attend the hop at the hotel where you're stop- in’." . No further news was to be obtained from the old man, so Maldon was till the night of the dance. “Her afiliction makes no difference to me; her eyes and her smile make up for all.” S#urday night he was on the hotel ed on the bench In an attitude of | veranda when a large car drove up land six girls alighted. They made a | pleasing picture, but with their long coats and enveloping veils he could to spell rapidly on her fingers and to motion across the lake. “Deaf and dumb!” he ejaculated, and mentally called down maledictions on the faculty for not including the | mute alphabet in his college course. | rere are vour friend May | © you to the hotel?” he begau dly. and motioned in that d { rection Her blue eyes and she shook | ing toward the lake, He motioned inquiringly in the rection of Glen Echo, a small sumr resort on the opposite shore. nodded a relieved smile breaking over her face. “If 1 could only find out who she is, and why she happens to be her alone!” he exclaimed, and vainly searched his pockets for pencil and paper. “Of course those articles are missing when I most need them Well, anyway, it's evident she wants to go across the lake.” By the water's edge was tled a small rowboat, and he led the way thither, pointed toward it, then again motioned questioningly toward Glen Echo. She nodded, so he helped her into the boat, untied it, took the oars, and they started in that direction. The hoat was supplied with cush ions, and she leaned back like a con fiding child. Though hatless, she car- ried a pale green parasol which brought out the exquisite shell tint of her cheeks. Occasionally she glanced up with a smile, but for the most part kept her blue gaze downcast and watched the water, as she trailed one little hand among the lily pads. After Maldon had guided the boat into the current, he put down the oars, rested agalnst the cushions, and took out his pipe which he held up in quiringly. She shook her head, so he lighted it, and watched her through the smoke. “l don’t care to stare her out of countenance just because she cannot speak or hear, but the temptation is great,” he breathed. Perhaps her fluffy femininity made a stronger ap- peal because of the fact that khaki and camping outfits were the rule among the girls at the mountain re- sort where he was spending his vaca- tion. “Such loveliness, and such an af- fliction!” he sald. ivery once fin awhile, forgetful of the fact that she could not hear, Maldon broke out with a remark; but she pald no heed, unless she happened to be glancing that way, then she would give a brave, pathetic little smile Drooping, silverleaved poplars bent over the water's edge, and the two seemed alone together on the lieart of the lake. Over all was that peculiar silence, which, in lonely pre; cedes the sunset, All too soog for Maldon. they gained the opposite shore, and re- gretfully he helped her to alight He started to lead the way in the diree- tion of the settlement of Glen Echo, but she shook her head and started down a winding path leading among the pines. When she had gone sev- eral rods she paused, and, standing on tiptoes with a butterfly motion, placed one hand on his arm, the other against his broad chest and touched his forehead with a soft light kiss. Then she gathered up her flut- fy skirts and ran like some wild crea- ture of the forest. and disappe |red among the trees before the s i man realized what had h.u;qn a moment he plunged all his eager, carnest fruitless.

Next day he returned, and for sey- eral succeeding days he made him- self a nuisance with his attempts to find some trace of her With a voung man's usual fear of ridicule. he said not a word about it to the other boarders at the hotel where he was staying. Jean McNarth g Jife- long chum, alone was taken into his confidence. Though sympathetic and interested to a satisfying degree. she could offer no solution. “Maybe she was a water sprite, or ched his hand: ad, azain poirt places (ing room, and as he {not distinguish oue from the other.

For a moment he stared at her in blank amazement, “You—you speak?’ he bluntly asked. “Quite fluently, gayly responded. His dazed faculties awoke with fervor. “We cannot talk here with- out interruption. Let us go where it | is more quiet,” he suggested, and led | the way to a cozy corner of th ver ' anda. { “Really, Mr. Maldon, 1 owe you a | hlg apology,” she began when se; nml “It all must seem like a dreadful mys i tery.” “A delightful mystery—but perplex ing.” “Wait till 1 tell you all,” she dim- pled. “You see it Is part of our senority initiation to pose in some un- known place as being deaf and dumb, and trust to the first person we meet to guide us back in safety.” “But the disappearance act! did you elude me?” “Just behind that big clump of pineg near where we were standing is a hole among the rocks leading to a natural cave. There the other sorority girls were waiting for me. You kept ue in captivity a long time that day while you gcoured the woods.” “l couldut find a single trace of you and at last would have sworn it was all a dream If it hadn't been for— the end.” At the mention of that, she flushed a little. “We are obliged to thank our guides that way,” she shyly ex- plained “In that case, your I've been told,” she How I should like tq be guide—-always,” he laughingly declared, but his keen eyes were very caruest, This time it was Maldon who took the initiative, and it was she who was turprised. And the old yellow moon, which a short time before had secmed to him so dull and tarnished, now shone brightly. (Copyright, 1912, by Assoclated Literary Press.) LAST OF THE SAXON KINGS Death of Harold Left Norman Con- querors Free to Seize the Realm of England. On rush the Norman knights. But Harold is already in the breach, rally- ing around him hearts eager to re place the shattered breastworks. “Close shields! Hold fast!™ shouts his Kkingly voice. Hefore him were the steeds of Bruse and Grantmesnil. At his breast their spears; Haco holds over the breast the shicld. Swinging aloft with both hands his ax, the spear of Grantmesnil is shivered in twain by the king's stroke. Cloven to the skull rolls the steea of Bruse. Knight and steed roll on the bloody sward. But a blow from the sword of De Lacy has broken down the guardian shield of Haco. The sword of Sweyn is stricken to his knee. With lifted blades and whirling maces the Nor- man knights charge through the breach “Look up, look up, and guard thy head'” cries the fatal voice of Haco to the king. At that cry the King raises his flash- ing eyve Why halts his pride? Why | drops the ax from his hand? As he | raised his head. down came the hiss- ing death shaft.
