She could not love, she said. Adela, rich, discontented, but in- effably dear to him, did not know her own heart. Langwith had a clear pic- ture of her in his mind during that time of despair. Her beauty, her high breeding, her dissatisfaction with life would, he knew, make marriage inevi- table for her in the future, and, he ::amd. would bring unhappiness with Get Your Coupons in the Great Voting Contest at the Hub.

But three more years had passed away and he had not seen her since. She had gone away to Camways that summer, to a little seaside village, and after that she had traveled in Europe. It was more than a year before she returned to her house in the metropolis. No letter had come. Langwith had never tried to see her, but his love burned the fiercer for its impossibility of fulfilment. The third summer after he had lost her Langwith resolved to go to Cam- ways. It was a pilgrimage of love. He wanted to live where she had lived that season, to see the things that she had seen and to try to enter vicarious- ly into her life in this way. He went to Camways, put up at the little hotel, and found the restfulness of the little place unexpectedly soothing. He ar- ranged to rent an old-fashioned cot- tage upon the cliffs, within a stone’s throw of the hotel, where Adela had stayed. “It's been unoccupled for three years,” the agent told him frankly, *I mailed it here, in this Jetter-box.” she answered. “I used to come here to look at the flowers. That is why I seemed somehow bound up with all my memories of you. And you only— got—it—today—" Langwith began to laugh hysterical- ly. For three long years the I had lain in the private Adela had mistaken for a public one. And now—now—it seemed miraculous that he should have rented the very house that she had loved, and taken the letter from the place where she had posted it. But, when he explained, her happy . tears drove the memory of those years away. (Copyright, 194, by W. G. Chapman.)

It was a de lighttul, old-world place, with a garden full of flowers set out by tie last oc- cupant and now rapidly reverting to the wild.

He threw on his dressing gown and went down. “Party by the name of Langwith here?’ asked the man. The painter nodded sleepily. “I just put a bundle of mail for you in here,” said the postman, indicating the private mail-box which stood at the end of the garden. “Then it oc- curred to me that, having just moved in, you mightn't have the key.” “I haven't” sald the painter. “I didn’t know you had free delivery here. But I guess it can be opened easily enough.” The weather-worn box ylelded to the slightest effort, and Langwith took out his letters. Among them was one that made his heart beat furiously. It was in Adela’s handwriting. It seemed as though his longing had reached her in some telepathic man- ner, and bad been answered.
