The next night when Johnny | Jump Up came to dance on the Twins' window sill in the moon- light, they were waiting for him, all fad and ready to go.

"Are we going on a journey to- night?" eried Nick, "We are if the moon doesn't blow up," answered Johnny Jump Up, (making a funny face. "But the | moon man sent me word that he thinks it's likely to blow up be- cause it's made of jce mostly." "Then we're going," said Naney, happily, running up to the little fairyman and taking the tiny shoes {he held out. Just as before, as soon as they touched the shoes, they became as little as gumdrops, "Follow me," commanded Johnny Jump Up next. So all three climbed out of the window and down the rose vine into the magic garden. John Jump Up did a string of somersaults across .the posey beds, {not touching a flower, but when he | | | reached a pateh of blue-bells, he | stopped.

It was moon- light at home but daylight there and they could see everything. Scotland was certainly a bonnie country, as Sandy would have said. The highlands were beautiful, full of green ferny places and lovely wa- ter-falls and clear streams where water-eress grew, And there were fields and fields of ip heather, a low plant of a purple color that is beautiful in the sun.

Her heart ached intolerably as she stole glance after glance at the gay pair opposite. How often Leonie's laugh rang out! And Miles--Miles was publicly flirting with her! After dinner, everyone cept Miles and Leonie, played who al to say to one another. At ten o'clock, Marcella rose, pleading a headache, and slipped oft upstairs. At a curve of the upper landing, she encountered Miles. He was not going to stop, but something made her suddenly put out her hand, and say, brokenly: "Can I speak to you a minute? here is just one thing I want to say." : He drew back, unsmiling. A queer look was on the dark, handsome face. "I don"t thnk," he sald evenly and very coolly, "that you and I can have anything to say to each other--now--or at any other time." Marcella stared incredulously at her quopdam lover. She was white to the very lips. "You and I--nothing to say to say to each other--' she repeated, parrot-like. "What cam have hap- pened?" This was a nightmare---an incred- ible nightmare from which surely she would soon awake! "Nothing has happened, except that my eyes are opened," said Miles very low. "I've been a fool, that's all." She put out a trembling hand. The Birl was shaking from head to foot, and a pulse in her throat was throb- bing madly. "Miles! What is it? You tell me. Haven't I---g---a right koow?" The words came brokenly. "A right? What right? You are engaged--deeply involved -- with someone else!" "But," she stammered, "Only this morning we told each other, you and I, about caring. Weren't you in earnest? I believed you. . .» His lip curled at that, "And I---I believed in you. Fool that I was!" 80 hurt was he that it seemed to must to him as though his entire faith in this young girl were shattered. Never again could he believe a word she said.
