Mary also gulped. “I'm sure thet is written to some- body," Mary breathed Margaret nodded. This girl was too ravished with the grip of the thing to be capable of words. Mary !mplored. “Oh, do tell me!" Then Margaret told the story of Bill, When she had ceased she put out a hand for the price of her con- fidence: “And have you—are you—I know practically nothing about you, Mary dear. Do tell me, are you In love?" Bang went the gates of Mary's emotion. Here was awful danger. She laughed. “Oh, I've no time to fall in love, have 1?" Margaret sighed her sympathy; then gazed at Mary. Mary read the gaze aright. These ‘were women, and they read one an- other by knowledge of sex. Mary knew Margaret's gaze to be that of an archer sighting at his mark, esti- mating the chances of a hit. She saw the arrow that was to come speeding at her breast; gathered her emotions so| that she should not flinch at the wound Margaret twanged the bow-string. “No time to fall in love?"’ she mur- mured. She fitted the shaft; let fly. “Do you like George, dear?"' Mary stooped to her shoe-laces. Despite her preparations the arrow had pierced, and she hid her face to hide the blood.

Such .nulsh. in- difference was a dreadful thing to this girl, But she had now set her heart on this romance. “George, dear, I wish you would do ething for me." Anythin, “How nice you are!
