Two days had pussod sinc-f the musi- cal evcninjr at Balladruchit, wi'hout the bul)hle of Fenella's unlooked-for action having yet burst . She was em- ploying the interval in brucinK herself against the shock which must needs come. Her deci.sion could not but take her family by surprise, seeing how much it had taken her.self by .surpri.'-e. It was when Ronald ha'i spread his arms to her that she knew she could never many him; and before she slept that night she knew also why she could not marry him . She had at last been startled into looking; her own soul in the fact . So this was what people called l>e- in love? She remembered the strange trepidation which had come over her on the day of her first visit to Adam'.s !â- â-  'tape, while she waited out.side for .ler father's summons. She had thought then that her heart was beat- inK because nf the fear of the siffht of death; but now she knew that it had been the dawn of love that had been near, and whose thrill her unconscious noul felt. .41so she knew why she had been so assiduously encouiaginjj the unfortunate Ronald,â€" it had been to protect herself against the thought of Duncan; and for this he had had to suffer. .\ll this she admitted, without reserve, yet without joy. She cou'd nut fight against her love, which had confronted her full-grown, some- thing in the way that a royal scion ^ brought iij) secretly in the shadow of the temple might confront the usurper of his father's throne. In its cradle she migli* have strangled it, had she been aware of its existence, but at the first meeting already she knew that it had outgrown her own strength. To kill it she could not hope, but neither did she mean to surrender to it . Of course, she could never marry another manâ€" .sl.-j had learned that in that moonlight night â€" but that simply meant that she would never marry at all, tince at the bare idea of becoming Duncan M'Donnell's wife, social pre- judice!, so carefully fostered, leap- ed to arms. Besides, even suppos- ing herself sunk so low as this, there was her family to consider. The meie thought of Albert was enough to put an e.xtinguishcr upon audacity. For between applauding the uition of a Lilian Larrington and feeling cap- able of imitating it, there lie;! a gulf. It was as a misfortune that her attach- ment chiefly struck Fenella as yet, partly also as a disgrace. She was even a little angry with the cause of V all. Why had he needed to cross her patU at so critical a juncture? Why. especially, hud he, by revealing to her his own secret, troubled her with glimpses of such a passion as she ha<l read of only in story-books? A shade of irritation had never (juile left their intercourse. In spite of the punctilious "Miss Fennella," there had oeen a want of obsei|uiousness about his demeanoui-, under which her vainty smarted. He '.ail so niaiiy ways of givin^: her to understand that only an accident separated their stations in life. .Arrived at this point in her re- flections, Fenella used occasionally to branch off into surmi.ses as to what would have happened if her father, in- stead of taking orders, had remained in the (|uarry, and she and Duncan had met on the same social level. Hut these visions, being recognised a:- dis- turbing, weie (piicKly put as'de. One other thing would be more dis- turbing »*.ill: a meeting, uhicli was why, when called upon by her father to visit Bessie Stuart, the forester's wife, whose precious baby wa* ailing, Fenella had set mit In some trepida- lion. The chances of meeting Duii- lan al his sistc's houso were not great, but they e.xisted. That danger was ovei' now, and I''uiiella's face set homewards. But there would be Adam's cottage to pass a second lime. Kven in going, she had cast a (|uick glance in that diieclion, hoping she was not ob.servcd, though at this early afternoon hour there was liltle fear of Duncan fjeing back from the ipi.-trry. As she pursued the tliouglil her step faltered; for at that very municrit the road appeared to her to be not (piite solitary after all. .She liad caught .ight of a man's figure silting on a si one by the wayside, immovalile and apparently waiting for soinetliing. And by that stone she would have to pass. Thert were no side paths in the desert, and not a scrap of an aiir- bush behind which she could hope to (iwafie his eyes. Not that at Ibis dis- tance she could see his face, and yet Mver for a moment did she doubt his Identity. After H brief pause of flurry she re- iolulely tneiuled her jiace, having sum- moned all her latent indignation to her aid. Wha.t right had he to waylay her in this fashion? What had iliey to say to each other? With slilfened neck and tightly compressed lips she stepped bravely forwards, determined quickly to get over whatever might b^i toming. ' Whei. ...iin a lit'le distance she saw him rise and again remain immovable, the determination of the gesture made her courage waver somewhat; and when, nearer dill, she could disting- uish his features, a sort of mental diz- rlnesR began to blur the outline of the idaii of action ju»t laid ready. To pass him by with just a friendly salutation had been the foremost item of thai plan, instead ,)f which, at the very first (ound of his voice, she found herself slamiinf still. "Miss Fenella!" Was it really those same two wonls which Koimld haul spoken two evenings ago? "I hnvo waited for you here, just to say one word - about father," he added <|ulckly, a* though in atisVer to her outspoken fears. "Well?" she said, as naturally as her fuKt-heating hcnrl would allow. "IIb I* pining sorely after you; your Tislts have become so rare. But I do not blame you, I blame myself for th<>«e mad words I said to you that Sui..i;iv, liefore the cottage. 1 can giK > ^ iliiit it is the f«ar uf hearing them again that keeps you away, and that nTikes you V^iry off so early, be- fore the ((uarry hours are up. I want you t( I It that fear away from you. Miss 1- . lella. I saw you pass now on your ' ay to Bessie- for father has been Mling worse than usual, and I staye i away from the ([uarry â€" and I follr w .'d you here to tell you this. It break;* my heart to think that you should be afraid of me. But you need not be. I shall never speak such words to you again." He stopped and looked !;t her across the road which separated them, grave- ly, calmly, obviously master of each one of his words and movements, yet with a new stamp of pain upon his face. , Fenella nodded vaguely, aware of a convulsive contraction in her throat, such as usually comes before tears. : "You believe me, Miss Fenella?" ' "Yes," she uttered very low. "And you will come again to the cottage, " without fear? You will come in and out, as in the summer days? I would not have father suffer through my fault." | "Yes, I will come." "Thank you, Miss Fenella. And thank you too for believing me. I would rather cut out my tongue than let it say a word that could disturb you." â-  â-  I "That is all, I suppose," said Fenella. with a very faint smile, and making an uncertain step onw^ard aa though to close the interview, while an immense sense of desolation began to wrap her round. ' "There is another thing as well I ivanted to explain to you how I came to be in the Balladrochil garden the other night, when the music was going on. It would make me mad to think that you could believe I was spying upon you and upon Mr. Macgilvray." With a glow that was almost a pain the blood rushed to Fenella's face. "That was you?" she exclaimed, standing abruptly still. "1 thought it was a gardener." ! "It was 1; but 1 had no more thought of sjiying than of robbing the hoUic. ' I had rowi'd over with a message of father's to .Mick .M'Laren, the head gardener; hi.s first wife was our cou- sin; the minister's sister, you know," added Duncan, with a trifle of emphasis, "and father was keen about* s(<?'ing him, because of some money matters concerning the children. I meant to come straight home again, but the music seemed to take hold of me, and I couldn't get away â€" I've al- ways been foolish about the music. I , thought the garden was empty, but as I 1 came round a turn I saw you and Mr. ^ .Macgilvray. 1 did not hear ji word,! I swear to you; but 1 couldn't, help seeing that your hands were held out^ to him, and I knew what that meant.! But I went away In that same instant,' Miss Fenella." - I Had she dared to brave his eyes, just then she would ha\ e seen the' expectancy upon his face pass into signs of hesitation, the brief struggle! being ended by some words spoken [ with a sort of artificial steadiness, evi- â-  dently calculated to soothe all pos- 1 • ibie alarm. i "God knows that 1 v.ant to wish you j happiness, Miss l'"enella; but there is just one more word 1 need to hear , from you before 1 can do it; just that word which I asked you for once be-' fore, w hen Bessie came between. Tell i me with your own lips that your heart' is in it, an<l 1 shall rest content." ' "1 don't understand you," said Kenclhi, in a flui'ry, understanding the while perfectly, and even in Ihe midst- of the flurry winulering how she w.ould have stood the searching tone of that ^ deep, judicial voice if imlecd .-he had been guilty before the bar of her own I heart. j "Mr. Macgilvray has gone away,"i said Fenella, and even in saying it Wondered why she was giving this unneces.Hary piece of information. ".And when may be be returning?" "I don't know pel haps nvver." .Again the speaking of the words seemed to be (|uite unconnected with any operation of her will. A moment of tense silence followed befiu-e Duncan said, in forcibly calm' tones: "But 1 believed " ".So did Ij but it was a mistake. I have sent him away. I am, after all,' not .so base as perhaps you thought I was, Duncan" ! Her head went up as she said it. This lime the triumph of meetinjj; his' eyes with resi ued self-esteem written broad in her own had overborne every' other consideration. That something: else besides triumpli might \»: written 1 there had not occurred to her, anil yet i it must hav(! been so, for Duncan,! meeting thai gaze, shivered suddenly,' as though at Ihe approach of fever. | When, after a moment, ho trusted him- : self to speak, it was with that extreme and lather pon>!"rous slowness which i is Ihe most elementary way of govern-' ing a growing excitement. ] (To be continued.)

Herbert Sykes, (he Well-Known Brit- iHh Air I'ilot, Uecounts Some Expertenceb. Why do I like looping the loop? V/ell, because I like it, that's the reason, and because a fellow must have something to amuse himself with up in the clouds, where it's pretty lonely if you are content to set on an even keel, with nothing but the noise of the engine to keep you company, says Herbert Sykes, whose duty it is to test aeroplanes before they are de- livered to the fighting forces. Looping is the joy of my existence, and it is my intention to keep on do- ing H until I have created a record which will take a lot of beating. What I want to do is to climb upstairs to about five thousand feet and do somer- saults all the way home. My record stands at thirty in one circle, and be- fore I achieved it I did about twenty- five, and finished up the evening by looping the loop on quite a different machine to any I have ever seen in the air. Like to hear the story? It is rather amusing. A Fly's-Eye View. One night, when I was on my way home with my 'bus, I thought I would turn over, just by way of relieving ths motoixony, and so I jammed her nose down and got her over comfortably on her back. Almost simultaneously I heard a ciack behind, and, jumping to the con- clusion that there had been an accident to the rudder, I turned my head round to look. It was a thing I had never done.be- foie, and what I saw was one of the greatest revelations of my life. My range of vision was amazing, and everything I saw had such a weird ef- fect that I realized I had made a won- derful discovery. What I bad hear^l was merely a bit of mud, which had dropped down and struck the tail, and as the latter seemed to be coming up towards me, and everything below tak- ing on a new look, the excitement of the new experience got such a hold on me that I went on looping and looping, and finding out for myself the exact sensations of a fly on the ceiling, until I realized it was time to flatten out. .sun Going .Strong. By this ime it was getting dark, and as I ci uld not see my hangar, I was forced to fly on and on for miles until I coul:l make out a safe place in which to land. In the meantime there was the greatest consteniatiiui at the aero- drome. .All my friends, who had been watching me coming down in somer- sault.s, were hurriedly throwing stretchers into motor-cars and- dashing off to find anylhing that might be left of poor Sykes. Hither and thither they went scour- ing the country, and, to make matters all the worse, il took me abmit an hour to lind a 'phone, and another to get a connection when I found it. I met part of the lamenting crowd on my way home, convinced them that all was well, and after supper I decided to go back to Slie|)perton, where I had left my aeroplane, and put a cover over it for the night, as it had com- menced to raiil. .An I'nexpected Loop. We set out on a light car, and as the mads were muddy and full of holes, I made the journey on Ihe radi- ator. Kverything went all serene un- til the journey back, when, with your humble servant still sitting on the radiator, the car dived into a particu- larly deep jiocket in the road, and be- fore it stopped dead luriied over three times. 1 was still sitting on il when il settled down peacefully, so 1 think I can lay claim to being the only avia- tor who has loojied the loop on a mo- tor car. There is really nothing except ex- hilaration and excitement in looping. I know It is difllcult to convince lands- men that this is so. Hut come up w'itli me, and 1 assure you that you won't want to go home without doing one or two stunts to finish up the trip. I have taken three girls up who had never seen an aeroplane in their lives before, and each one of them Ihiished up with my machine tying a lover's knot in the air. Fact, I assure you! The first girl 1 look upstairs was en- joying herself immensely till 1 gave my machine a dip and looked round, with a glance which could easily be in- terpreted lo mean ".Shall we reverse?" Her face went very pale, she looked won i<'d, iind shook her head frantic- ally. .Away we flew, and when I Ihoughl she had settled down a bit I jammed the nose down again and shol rouiiul my head. Her reply was even more emphatic, so on we flew until I thought I would make a ihinl altenipl lo win her consent. Tills time there was a sparkle of an- licipalion in her' eyes, and though her face vas still pale, it looked deter- mined. i\i a nod of approval from her 1 began lo loop, and before we reached Ihe aerodrome that liltle lady had made three somersaults. She told me she liked the sensation immensely, and would not have missed it for worlds. A Mild Flirlnlinn.

Once I took two girls up at the same time, and the trip was one of the most ^enjoyable I have made, although I was tickled to death most of the time. The girls weighed about ten stone each, and as one would not go up without the other, I was at a loss what to do at first. There was no room in the machine for them to sit side by side, but, as usual, I found a way out of the difficulty! Nature having compressed what ' whai there is of me into small bulk, I am forced to use cushions to enable me to see over the front. So I sim- ' ply removed the three of thi m, put one lady in the pilot seat and sat on her lap. Her friend sat behind us. Everything went well when we were climbing, but when we were in the air I I found my cushion a bit nervy. She ! was trembling in every limb, and every time the machine rocked she put her arms round my waist and , hugged me tight. The Tale That Failed. Oh, yes, it was nice and all that, and r as I had never been hugged in the air | by a girl before I took my hand off the control, and, slipping it into the hand of the lady, I squeezed it in the i fashion most approved by readers of j Aunt Ermyntrude's penny novels, and thus assured the maiden that she was ! safe in the air with Sykes. | It's a pity there isn't a sequel to â-  this story, but although I'm a daring . enough chap in the clouds with a lady, | I'm not a bit of good at love-making: : on dry land.
