She crept Inte them nnd lie held her like n child, and presently their lips met. Se they stayed together, silent, In hnpplnei's nnd in pain; nothing mere exquisite In sensa tion, perhaps, than what life gave then with its generous tnlened hands. It was Sephie tliat moved first. She was uddenly afraid. They Veund thenuclves itandlng the room apart, whlte-fnced, fast-brcathlng. Laurie then walked papldly across the room, picking up his bag and hat, and went out. He did net se much as leek at her ngnin, and tar ted blindly down the stairs. It was no movement en Q's pnrt that caught his attention, perhaps It was only the intcntness of the Westerner's lllence, but, half a flight down, Lnurie did leek up and saw Q, gripping the bul tutrade above him. Lnurie hestltated. Q's eyes said, ;Teu are net agein' te quit her, nre you?" but, for the moment, never guessing hew their leek would hnunt nnd fashion him te Its desire, they only ,tightcncd his resolve. He smiled coldly iand faintly, nodded his head and went rapidly down the Btcps. Q wnndcred restlessly up nnd down the faded scarlet hallway j its stuffiness oppressed his lungs and spirit. He began te be afraid of Sephie's long silence In his room. A sleven! v mnld iwent by nnd stared at him wendcringly. A sieeK, imnuseme, Impudent -eyed 'drummer passed him, whistling, gave him a mocking scrutiny before hn latepped Inte' the elevator. Q remembered 'that hc had seen this young man pur- wing oepuie wun nn ingratiating ad drcbs. "Thnt feller," Q commented automatically, "has a mean mouth nnd ! cold eye." Almest as automatically ne aeauccii n termuin, "Meme folks lins 'te laugh mean, tbataway, se's te get veil with Ged." The elevator dropped out of fright with its unconscious victim of nnalvsls, and, a moment later, Sephie stumbled out of the deer of Itoem 00. She looked broken and dulled; she crept out of sight, her steps noiseless en the faded crimson carpet. Q, who had brought this miserv nhenf and could net understand Its reuwm, quinea nis neart wuu inuignatien and outraged sympathies.

He remembered that after that Inst lessen she had looked pitifully white nnd tired. Uy the time Q steed en the small shabby familiar perch he was ns happily excited us n boy. Ills eyes were deep with their anticipation. When Mnry opened the deer, It was all he could de net te catch her up In his nrms. lie laughed te hide the Intensity of his delight. . "I've come back, life the boy that plays hooky kind of scared," he said. "What arc you ngeln' te de te me?" , "Nothing," said Mnry. She had smiled very faintly in re re seon c te the dazzling Illumination of his smile and was new leading him list lessly along the little hall. Q's henrt took n sudden surprising downward sweep. He dropped his books un the table and looked down nt her. "Yeu were right," he said quickly. "I want te tell you before we get te work nnd, 5Hss Mary, I nm going te work awfully hard, you're sure going te be plea ;ed with inc that you were right ns te the foolishness of meddling. I will never de It no mere." She looked nt him steadily fpr the first time. "Yeu mean Laurie Sales ami Sephie? Oh, I dare say you arc quite right about that. I thought It ever afterward. Happiness te get people their happiness Is nlmest a duty. It must he right te try for that." She took her place opposite him, but' she was no longer the eager, can did little teacher. He would linrdly have known her. She sat, steeping a little; looked away from him with veiled eyes. Even her hair had lest some of its ruddy sparkle. Q pressed his lips tight and, covertly observing her, opened his book. He hnd been promoted te a simplified edition of Aesop's Fnblcs nnd he began where he hnd left off. "The wind blew but the traveler only drew his clenk closer about him " "Miss Mary," he said sharply, "you leek llke you had lest n friend." At that she glanced ever nt him quickly. After a second, "I hnve," she said. "Yeu don't mean" Q's '"voice was uncertain with dread "that you have quit being a friend te me?" "Oil, no!" Her color rose In n flood that ought te have betrayed her te htm, only that he was leagues from the gateway te such understanding. He breathed freely ngaln. "Hut you've Inst some ether friend?" She nodded nnd frowned n little. "Let's don't tulk about it, Q. I've had an nnxleus time. Things have been bothering me. I believe it's done me geed already te free you. Yeu blew everything about like n strong wind. Tell me like the cows, I'm curious wasn't It a success, your plot for Sephie?" "Ne, ma'am net nnythliuj like thnt. I made n feel of myself nnd It don't bear talkin' of. Today Sephie leeks about like you de only Mic's lest a lever, which hits harder." Mnry smiled ene of these complex smiles of hers that twisted Inte one expression fro many strands of quick emotion. "They met Laurie nnd Sephie?" "Yes, ma'nm, In my room. Hut he hns quit her ngnln. And 1 reckon this time it's for geed nnd ever, which makes it werse'n it was for the peer gel. Honest, It senres me she leeks se downed nnd ilcp'rit sort of like an easy victim for nny feller. Them drummers hnngin' 'round. Whenever 1 think ubeut her I'd like some one te take me eun and beat me up. 1 was almighty sure of myself, Miss Mnry, like jeu said I was. but new I nln't. I think it's likely I'll never be i-e sure of myself ngaln. Knewln' hoss-es, I hev discovered, nln't te much of a help In knewin people. IIesscs hev get se much mere sense. Yeu can llgger en what they will be likely te de. I'm plumb dbceurnged with the things folks de. I reckon I'd better quit try In' te run the earth. It tiin't lightly my corral." Mary was smiling, n doubtful bright- iie.s4 returning te her face. "I don't knew, l'erhaps you'd run It rather well. Tell me about the mills. Did you enjoy mnking carpets?" She fancied thut his real motive hnd been te collect some money nnd, be cause, of the price he hnd paid for his les'ens, this distressed her. She was quite desperately bent, these days, upon collecting money herself, but, en his account, she felt compunction. "Yes, ma'am. It's a right interest ing process." He described It te her, nt some length, vividly, nnd gnve her u picture of els life that part of It discennecter1 from his mero serious pursuit. "And th?y paid you wrell?" Q ts "Awful Rich" "Fair wages of course my labor wasn't what you'd call skilled. Miss Grlnbcoembe don't pay se high as Berne or the mill-owners, it she did she'd get n better type of workman and her carpets weulun t suiter none. I'd like te talk it ever with her, if she wasn't bound en the north, south, cast and west by Dr. Sales." "Wltnt nre you saying, Q?" "That's just a notion of mine, Miss Mnry, He's u dangerous bert of feller doc." Mary was making absent hieroglyphics with her pencil, ane was trewning, and flushed. "What makes you think anything se strange as that?" Q looked at her with all his keen ness. IIe thought a minute before he spoke. "La t time we was tnlkln' of doc," he drawled, "you wouldn't hev swallowed be easy-Ilka what I said jest new. "Since I wns last here, Miss Mary, you hev been tlndin' doc out some-, haven't you? Ain't he maybe the friend you lest? Wnsn't it me that begun te put you wise te him?" Mnry prudently nnswered only his last question. "Ne you amazing crea ture, It was net." She considered even this answer before she made it, still drawing little hquares and circles, but looking him in the face with the eyes of tier perplexity.
