Silence alone answered him at first, then when he haq rapped again, he heard a mut- _' cwâ€"v- â€"â€"v Uuul fled on into the ca}. He had hardly left the little space before the stateroom when a hand- some man with luscious eyes. but without any smile at all, came slink- “Oh, yassum, clear as clear.” Thus guaranteed she entered the stateroom, leaving the porter alone with his prob- lem. He tried to work it out in a semiaudible mumibie: "Lemme see! If Your present husband's absent wife tits on bode disguised as a handsome hideous woman I’m to throw himâ€" herâ€"oi! the train and let henâ€"himâ€" come inâ€"oh, yassum, you may rely on me.” He bowed and held Out his hand.

It was during the excitement over the decoration of the bridal section, that the stateroom-tenants slipped in unobserved. First came a fluttering woman, whose youthful beauty had a certain ‘ hue of experience, saddening and wisering. The porter brought her in, from the station-platform, led her to; ‘the stateroom's concave door and: passed in with her luggage. But she: lingered without, a Peri at the gate, of Paradise. When the porter re- turned to how her in, she shivered and hesitated, and then demanded: “Oh, porter, are you sure there's no- body else in there?" The porter chuckled, but humoned her panic. “I ain’t seen nobody. Shall I look! under the seat?” ' “Edith! ” “Yes, of course.

And see- ing the porter, beckoned him close and asked with careless indifference: “0h, porter, what time do We reach the Iowa state line?” “On one condition, Arthurâ€"that you leave me as soon as we cross the Iowa state line, and not come back till we get to Utah. Remember, the Iowa state line!” He took her by the elbow to escort her into their sanctuary. but still she hung back. It was certainly a tangled web they had woven, but a ray of light shot through it into his bewildered soul. “But we’re all right in Utah. Come, dearest." - “In Illinois, yes,” she admitted, very dolefully. “But when we come to Iowa, I’m a blgamist, and when we come to Nebraska, you’re a blga- mist, and when we come to Wyoming, we’re not married at all.” Mrs. Fo;:trlick had a genius for in- venting unpleasant possibilities. “But what if your former wife or my for- mer husband should nave a detective on board ?” “A detective?â€"-poof!" He snapped his fingers in bravado. “You are with your husband, aren't you?" He seemed a trifle afraid himself and his gaze was askance as he urged: “But the train will start soon, Edithâ€"and then we shall be safe " He made a brave effort with: “We ended two unhappy marriages, Edith, to make one happy one. " “But I'm so unhappy, Arthur. and so afraid " His partial wife returned the caress and tried to explain: “I'm not quar- reling with you. dear heart, but with the horrid divorce laws. Why, oh, why did we ever interfere with them?" “Yes, and no better." I The angels looking on might have judged from the ready tempers oi the ' newly married and not entirely un-i married twain that their new alliancei promised to be as exciting as their' previous estates. Perhaps the man subtly felt the presence of those eter-f nal eavesdroppers, for he tried to end the love-duel in the corridor with an appeasing caress and a tender ap- peal: “But lets not start our honey- moon with a quarrel." I “She’s no worse than your former husband. He’s pursuing us, too. My divorce was as good as yours, my dear.” “That’s the trouble, Arthur. What if your former wife should find us to~ xether?" “But she and I are divorced." “In some states, yesâ€"but other states don’t acknowledge the divorce. That former wife of yours is a fiend to pursue us this way." again warned him on. "'You musn't come in.” “But I’m your husband." “That’s just why You musn’t come in." The door opened a little wider to give him a view of a down-cast beauty moaning: “Oh, Arthur, I’m so afraid.” “Afraid?” be suited. “With your husband here?” THE ~'£UGHES DUh... mi (‘I lost.

If this train is late, 1m "‘A lot of good it does now,” said Marjorie. “You won't even wait over till the next train.” “Oh, how can you say that? I had the license bought and the minister waiting.” “He’s waiting yet." “And the ringâ€"there's the ring." He fished it out of his waistcoat pock- et and held it before her as a golden amulet. “It you had really-wanted me, you’d have had two taxicabs." Out of the anguish of her loneliness crent one little complaint: “To think that w; should owe alU our misfortune to an internal taxIU cab's break-down." And then temptation whispahad him its old "Why not?” While it was working in his soul like a fermenting yeast, he was saying: And now that he had her actually on the train, Mailory’s whole soul re- volted against letting her go. The .vislon of her standing on the plat- form sad-eyed and lorn, while the train swept him oil into space was unendurahle. He shut his eyes against it, but it glowed inside the lids. “I'll go as far as the steps of the car,” she said. When they were an- rived there, two porters, a sleeping car conductor and several smoking saunterers profaned the tryst. So she whispered that she would come 'aboard. for the corridor would be a quiet lane for the last rites. He had small time to meditate the puzzle, for the train was about to be launched upon its long voyage. He went out to the platform, and watched a couple making that way. As their only luggage was a dog-basket he sup- ! posed that they were simply come to bid some of his passengers good-bye. Again and again, she and Mallory paused. He wanted to take her back to the taxicab. but she wonld not be so dismissed. She must spend the last available second wlth hlm.

The porter stood with his box-step in his hand, and blinked and won- dered. And they did not even know they were observed. “I must go." “Yes. you must." “One last kiss." “One moreâ€"one long last kiss." And there, entwined in each other's arms, with lips wedded and eyelids clinched, they clung together, forget- ting everything past, future or pres- ent. Love's anguish made them blind, mute and deaf.
