'1 know now what you meant
that night when you told me you
had spent many distracted years
looking for what no man codld give
you, and although I doubted at
that time I could even guess- what
your own mysterious essence do
mended. I know now—still vague-
ly. tor it is something as far be-
yond the defining power o! words
eethefaithoftheChx-istian. It
can never be seen. nor heard, nor
expressed. but it is there. And
only once in a lifetime does any
one mortal have it to give to an-
other. A man may love many
times. but he is a god-mas only
once."

He held her more closely. for
she was trembling. but he contin-
Ied to walk on, guiding im- auto-
matically through the trees. for his
eyes were almost vacant, as 11
their vision had been reversed.

"I have had some hours of utter
despair. in spite of the double ex-
citement of these past weeks. for
it has seemed to me that I was no
nearer to you than I had been in
the beginning. There was a sense
of unreality about the whole at-
tair. At first it seemed to me the
most romantic thing that .could
happen to any man. and it was in-
credible that I had been chosen
the hero of such an extraordinary
romance—intensified. it anything.
by the tact that it was set in rear-
ing New York. where you have to
talk at the top of your voice to
hear yourself think. . . . But
that passed-in a measure. I was
beset by the tear—st times. I
mean: I was not always In a state
to look inward—that you were slip-
ping away. Not that I doubted tor
a moment you would marry me.
but that your innermost inscruta-
ble sell had withdrawn. and that
you accepted what must have ap-
peared to be my own attitude—
thst we were merely two vital be-
ings, who saw in each other a pros-
pect ot a superior sort of sensual
'delight—”

“That is not true.“ she interrupt-
”But you seemed

man can think at nothing else. I!
I hadn't hoped—and believed—in
you against all I knew of men. I‘d
never have gone on with it.”

"I'm sure that is true. I must
have disappointed you horribly.

soul to get out of New York and
ever to the other side of the world.
Why. liar-y! You are not cryiuY
You! I never believed you could.”

“I—lI-did not believe it either.

. . But. are you sure? Could
you reconcile yourself! You seem
so much a part or New York. of
this strange high-pitched civilisar
tion. It you are not sure—it nu
are only tired of New York for the
memos ._ . ‘. I—yes.Iwilll
give it all up and live here.
course I love New York itselt—
was it not my Mary Ogden home!
And there are delighttul people on
erywhere. . . . No doubt my
dream ct doing great things in Eu-
rope was more vanity—"

“Do you believe that?”

"Perhaps not. But. after all.
what I tried to do might be so ease
lly trustrated in that cauldron—
why should I risk personal happi-
ness—9th. most precious’ and the
rarest thing in lite. tor what may
be e. chimera—wasted years and s
wasted life. Why are we made as,
we. are. it to coax that hidden
spark into a steady flame is not our
highest destiny? It certainly is
our manitest right. . . . Dreams
of doing great things in this world
are nine-tenths personal vanity. I
believe that when we leave this
planet we go to a higher star.
where our incompleteness here will
be made complete: and perhaps
we are spared a term or probation
it we make ourselves as complete
here as mortal conditions will per-
mit. And. possibly. once in a great
while. two human beings are pee
mitted to street that completeness
together.“

They were both in an exalted
mood. The wood was very still.
its beauty incomparable; And they
might already have been on an-
other star.

Across that divine balsam-scent-
ed stillness came the deep impera-
tive notes of a bell.

Clavering twitched his shoulders
impatiently.

“Let them go on their screaming
picnic.” he said. "We stay here.
Did 'you mean that. Mary?”

"Yes, I meant it. We will not go
to Europe at all—except to visit
my Dolemltes some day. When you
are writing I'll come up here.“

"I don't know that I shall ask
that sacrifice of you. A port oI
youg brain is asleep now, but it is
a very active and insistent part
when awake. In time you might
revert—end resentment is a Istal

 

" ‘Why, Meryl
could! "

You had felt the bond from the be-
ginning. and I can imagine what
you must have dreamed I alone
could give you. ‘I‘he trouble was
that I didn't realize that I alone
was in fault. at the time. That
boiling pot in my brain was mak-
ing too much noise. But I can as-
sure you that I have returned to
normal. and it I thought I couldn't
eatisty you I'd let you go without
a word. But you know that I can,
don't you?"

She nodded. ‘

"What is it. I wonder?” He
“I wish I know. But it is
.nongh toteel. . . You must
understand that in spite of the or-
ratio creature you have known
since you retused to mlrry me at
once and let: me with no resource
but to let that play boil out. I am
man first and a writer incidentally.
I also have a stronger ambition to
be your husband than to write
plays. I! I don't strangle what
talent I have it is because I must
have the money to be lndepende‘nt
ct newspaper work. Otherwise I
should have neither peace of mind
nor be able to live abroad with
you. I’know that you cannot be
happy here. and I am not a victim
of that ancient myth that two
people who love each other can be'
happy anywhere. Environment is

lised. at all events. But you shall
never have another dose‘ or the

is generally a mistake to settle
things ofi-hsnd. Let them alone
and they settle themselves.”

“Very well. At all events, while
we are here, I shall not give it as-
other thought. The present at
least is perfect.”

“Yes, it is perfect!“ He put
both arms about her. The past
was a. blank to both. Their pulsing
lips met in the wonder and the
ecstasy of the first kiss of youth. oi
