Ia the half ligfct o? an October eve ning the room was charuilng. To the man coming from the frosty outside air it wu8 full of luxurious comfort. The man pause*) an instant, his eyes taking in every familiar detail; then { they rested upon the woman standing j before the open fire. "The fates are indeed kind," she ; said as he advanced toward her. "I j wh? beginning to think myself for i gotten," ? ' "Never that," he answered, a amilo lighting Mh face. "Think it the exigen cies of business, anything, but not that." Ah he spoke he pushed an easy chair i nearer the fire and sank into it with a j sigh of content. "1 have low much, 1 I know. You, who have it always, ca'nnot appreciate the charm, the delight of such a room as this to a weary man. It is always before me as a haven of ; rest and has so tantalized me this day i that 1 was forced to yield to my mood ' although- my desk is piled high with unfinished work " "I. am glad it was so," she answered cordially. "Of my many friends, your presence is the most acceptable." "Are you not mistaken?" ho ques I tioned gravely, "It haB scorned to mo | that I have lately been on the outside. I It is as if you had shut a door In my ? iaco and said, 'Thus far, but no far f ther.' " She dropped her fan and looked at ; him In silence. Then she said gently : "Your voice sounds angry. Are you trying to provoke a quarrel? Do not. ' 1 will not quarrel with you." "Then why do you always fanfco with mo?" he asked impatiently. "It has . been this way for months past, but it is unlike you. I Value our friendship. The privilege of coming and going as 1' willed has for years been my chief pleasure. But this 'rift within the lute' that you will not explain away leaves me stranded. Our old-time friendship j is gone." "Believe me, I have been most unfor tunate if my manner has conveyed ; such an impression." she said slowly. : "Jack," with a swift glance into his : gloomy face, ?'"for how long have wo | been friends?" "For" more years than I care to re member," he responded promptly. Quietly she watched him, but there was a nervous tremble to her lips near i er to tears than laughter. "I have been a fool," ho exclaimed ; abruptly. She let the accusation pass in si l lence. "And a coward." ? "You are beginning- to see how un ? reasonable you are?", she asked as she ! raised her fan to hide a smile.. i "No. On that point my opinion is unchanged. 1 was thinking of the lone i liness of my life. The friendship on I my side has always been make believe, i for 1 love" you, Margaret"! I think 1 have always loved you. It is a com | monplaco way of putting it, but, then I j am a commonplace man. 1 would have ' told you long ago, but 1 was afraid ! that my doing so would end every | thing." "I think you should also add 'cruel' and 'selfish.' The words would be ap plicable," she replied with hardly con j cealed bitterness. ! The years had risen in a flash before ! her; years in which she had trained ! herself in the difilcult art of friendship when her heart' was crying against such dissimulation. Something In her voice again at tracted his attention, but her face was titill in the shadow. "I am in an unlucky humor this af ternoon else 1 would not have jeopar i dized my greatest pleasure. Will you | forget it and Jlfil. W.e cpme as hereto fore?" ! "Forget it? No!" She replied with I deliberation. "I see no reason for ? changing the habit of year s because a mood forced a confession from you. I well understand it was not volun tary." "You anger me. It is you who will not understand. There is no little mis apprehension in my mind that I ask I you to give me an explicit answer at ! once." | "To what?" "To .what? Was there ever such a woman I Surely my meaning is plain enough. It does not speak well- for your intuition tp ask "what/ under the circumstances." "And yet I do ask it, Jack.* You have talked and talked. At, first ac cusing me. Then you dropped into a sort of monologue about friendship and love, and? thAt is all." "Do ydu mean me to understand that j have not asked you to marry me?" "You did not even suggest It," ' 'Well. I am waiting for my an wer." "But ySu haven't asked me anything ? yet." i ? "Good heavens I How many times do you want to hear it?" he exclaimed in exasperation. "Once Will be often enough," she answered In a voice qbivering with re strained tenderness. He leaned toward her. looking stead ily into the amused eyes. "Will you be my Wife. Margaret? Is that what you want mo to say? Do the words make my meaning any plainer?" She drew his hand against her cheek with a little laugh. "Why didn't yon say that before, dear? Surely after all these years you owed It to me." SI MMER whs modish Capes and IVIerinet. of Taffeta Favor til With Frork* of Yoilo, Nf?
