him. To nioch ifbw would be impos
sible—giving a double meaning and.
double understanding to a badinage
light as pir.> Alas! O ne fan! pas
Badiner avtc I’amour! Then she in-
Kwered, saying tgo much in an effort
to say a little with careless and becoming
courage.'
' “If he is like you, he may marry her.
... lam glad he is your brother.” . >
• The answering fire burned in his
face; she met his eyes, and twice her
own fell before their message. * ' J
He leaned forward, elbows on the
table, hot face between his hands; a
careless attitude for others to observe,
'but a swift glance warned her what
was coming—coming in a low, casual'
voice, checked at intervals as though
he were swallowing.
“You are the most splendid girl I
ever knew.” He dropped one hand
and picked up a. flower that had slipped
from her finger bowl. “You arc the
only person in the world jvho will not
think me craiy for saying this. We're
a headlong race. Will you marry
me? ”
She bent her head TT^oughtfully,
pressing her mouth to Ijer clasped fin
gers. Her attitude was repose itself.
“Are you offended?” he asked,
looking out of the window. •
■ There was a slight negative motion
of her head.'
A party of assorted • travellers rose
from their table and passed them,
smiling discreetly; the old minister
across the aisle mused in his coffee-cup,
carcssirig*his shaven face with wrinkled
fingers. The dining-car grew very
still.
.• “It’s in the blood;” he said, under
his. breath; “my grandparents eloped;
my father’s courtship lasted three
days from the time he first met my
mother—you see what my brother has
done in twenty-four hours . . . We do
things more quickly in these day^ . . *.
Please—plea^ don’t look so unhappy!”
“I—I am not unhappy ... I am
willing to—hear you. You were saying
something about —about—”
“About love.”
“I—think so. » Wait until those
people -pass!”
He waited, apparently hypnotised by
the beauty of the car ceiling. Then:
“(>f course, if you were not going to
be .my sister-in law to-morrow, I’d not
• go into family matters/’
, “No, of course not,” she murmured.
y So he gave heeU brief outline of his
own affairs, and she listened • with
bent head until there came the pause
which w^s her own cue.
. “Why do you tell me this?.” ^hc asked,
innocently.
“It—it—why, because I love you;”
On .comMyn ground once more, she
prepared Tot battle, but to her conster
nation she found the battle already
ended and an enemy calmly preparing
for her surrender.
“But when;—when do you propose
to—to do this. ’ she asked in an
unsteady voice.
“Now,” he said, firmly.
“Now? Mgrry me at once?”
*T love you enough to wait a million
years—but I won’t. 1 always expected
to fall in love; I’ve rather fancied it
would come like this when it came; and
* I swore I’d never let the chance slip
by. We’re a headlong family—but a
angularly loyal one; Ww lave but on"
in our lifetime; and wben we lovp v .
know it.”
“Do you think that this is that ,
time?”
“There is no doubt left in me.'’
“Then”—she covered her face <
