fluent’ weeks fhut nime ro*w and then
w hen he landed aoine art" work —times
that difl not come any loo often
The next morning there were two
bottles. “Hu ! SO the tidef tift-S U <’<'n

Hy careful manipulation of an old,
battered alarm clock, to* whs aide to
awaken at three o'Hoek. He.settled
himself hy the door ns comfortably as
lie could with the avowed purpose In
mind of keeping on watch until lie
heard the reformed mllk-hottle adduc
tor return in? the l»<dMe - if he did.
He remembered noihing after set-
lllng himself until at the same instant
there was a knock on the door, and
the door was pushed in, upsetting him.
As he rolled over, he looked up and
foOnd himself gazing at a dark-haired
girl whose brown eyes wersp? ftill of
mischief.
•’I’ftrdon me,” «he said. “I borrowed
your bottles because the man forgot
me,” she ext»l.ilned, then ns suddenly
ehe added, “No, (hut’s a lie—:I was
—‘wfarved"for TWO^Haj's, and i' .simply
bad to borrow your bottle*.”
He field out his hand. “Yoit are
forgiven. | know Just what^uie imnsa-
tlon Is. hit probably swipe yours be
fore long. So It will he even all
nround. Home in.”
Thu«, Jn the easy manner of ehll-
'inHfi ivho hn\e ho fear of life or the
morrow, they struck an acquaintance
ship. He discovered that she, like hlni,^
was an artist.
, In the weeks that followed the ac
quaintance ripened Into friendship—
the friendship of those with like
Ideals.
One" morning he came into her
studio, where she jvas Jkus?. .sketching
a can of beahs'Thut was to go Into
an “.id,” took her tools from her, led
hir to a ilivan, and proceeded to say:
"My lady, the Arts club In to give
a riot and dance next week. 1 am
invited and I bid thee accompany me
tf we can raise the caah.”
The prospect seemed bright, but on
the morning of the day of the ’’riot,’’
They found they had Just the price of
a ticket botw»s*n them V ‘
> “We go’” she cried, as they figured
up the amhunt.
"Yes, hut—you must have some
dowers:” h* urged “Flowers are to
be fbe motif, you know.”
‘‘What can I.sell?” stie«iisUed, gjanc-
' Inc about the studio
"Nothing!” he suWf promptly. "And
1 haven't, u tiling pawnalde, Ha t I
have an idea !”
Si" 1 tried to sta> him. hut he
lingered m t. Siu* listened to the quick
ficai o,' liN steps down the corridor.
“Peer gay heart,” siie'ninsed. “How
little cf: aid of life you are! If you
would only fall in love with me so
that I could have you always. I non
dor what you are op to?"
, 1'iirlv in .the evening he was buck,
'looking n ill tie weary but his same
smiling self, and he laid in her arms
roses beautifnl beyond her dreaming.
At tin- duii«a* she gave herself up (o
the spirit of the evening, letting the
morrow take cure of itself, and Ids
mood wss-hers. Then came the ex
plajhation that ehuigcd her world and
his.
One of the invited guests, a young
'engineer, said to her: -.•v..-
"I saw your friend today standing'
on )lie brink of eternity ”
SAif st n rial til his serious .yet
airmsed eyes ‘ “Whut do you mean?”
"Well, we had tluoe sets of dvna-^
mitt* that failed to explode out at the
Hlllrlek Job. and they had to be'what
we call ‘si>ooned out,' dug out, because
it is. of course, dangerous to leave f

Two hours later Patrolman Killy
O’Hara paused in the dusky street of
the studio section to see two young
people going by; the lad had his arm I
about the girl’s waist and they were

world.
"liegorra,” he. muttered, smiling,
