SEVENTH EPISOPB.
' Of one thing only he wa ure that
he would decide nothing- until she wa
ure that her decision wa right. But
thl begging of the question for the time
being did not eem to have a silencing
effect upon Tommy himself.

right or claim upon a certain woman.
If she won t be hie, at leaat she ought
to be, because he saw her first, or he
wa first to love her, or he Intervened In
, her behalf and saved her from something
or other-ln the caae of Celestla. Tommy
had saved her from' death. Also he had
been the first to see her, and the first
to love her.
V' Celestla." he said to "her one day (hi
hand still In bandage from superficial
Burns), "If orly to be logical and con
sistent, you ought to marry me. I know
that you are' absolutely sincere In the
belief that you are going to make the
whole world happy. I'm a small, part
of the world. Unlets you make me
harpy, and you don't show any symptoms
of doing that, you can't possibly suc
ceed, can you?"
Celestla considered, half smiling- Then
sho said, wholly smiling: "What did you
mean the other day when you seJd
merely to look at me. merely to breathe
the same air I breathed, merely to hear
the sound of my voice, wag happiness for
you?"
"Oh, Celestla," he said, hopelessly,
"There's no answer to question like
hat. Those are the things that a man
ist hai to say to the girl he love. 'I
on't know why he has to say em. but
e doea. Thoy are the truth and not the
Jth- It' heaven just to look at you.
1, It- Is: And fn the moment of look
ing vit' bell to think that maybe you are
never going to love me and belong to
me."-
"But marriage," she said more gravely,
"is a whole Mfe' work In Itself. And
already I've'a whole life' work cut out
for me." x
"Celestla," ald Tommy, "You are so
wonderful I believe you could do two
whole life' work at once. I do. And I
well, maybe f could manage one on my
own account; but 'it wouldn't be work.
It would he doing things I Just couldn't
help doing loving you and trying to
make you happy."
'Tommy," said Celestla. "If now, when
we are not etfen engaged"
"I am."
'not even engaged to be married,
you exert yourself In every way to keep
in from going about among the people
and trllimi them how tho whpM mu k

me all to yourself, how would It be if

I have been sent to go, and you, with
the law in ycur aide, and all the tradi

would try to. prevent me"
"What If I promised not to." '
"You'd have to promise that."
"I want you so." exclaimed Tommy,
that I'll promt anything. Will you
merry me?"
"I don't know. Tommy dear,") she said.
He drew a long breath, rose and walked
to the window.
"f tn'nk not.", said CciestlaJ and then
noting tlie really tragic expression upon
the young man' face, ahe added. "But
sometime I think I'd like te."

.said, "and help you with your mall; but
t seams that my father want to see me
very urgently and I suppose I've got t
gor-
"Of course you have, said Celestla
cheerfully.
"Freddie." said Tommy, "f neglected
to hang up the receiver, will you Jo It?
, It waa sometimes hard to get rid of
Freddie.
When the Ferret had gone out Tommy
made one last appeal to Celestla. going
very close to her and speaking swiftly
In a low .voice.
She heard him out gravely, and at the
end of his impassioned pleading shook
her head still more gravely.
"When I know what is right for me to
do," she said, "then I'll tell you. And
what I tell you will be final. There are
some debts that people have no right to
pay. Perhap my life, which I owe to
you, is such a debt. I don't know. But
I know this, that If you want to go on
seeing me you mustn't make love to me
any more. It make It so much harder
for me to think clearly. Some mornlnn
I shall wake up knowing what I ought
to do, and If I wake up knowing that I
ought net fn marry you, then, of course,
I won't."
Tears gathered In her eyes, and she
added, "Even though It broke my heart.
Now go."
"May I come back when I've seen my
father?"
"If you'll be good. Tommy."
So Tommy promised, very elaborately
and at length, to be good, and In the act
of promising broke hi promise several
times and hurried to see his father.
In spite of their recent differences of
opinion, and Barclay' long serlee of dis
appointment in Tommy, they met with
perfect friendliness, and as if there had
never been any trouble between them.
Barclay opened the conversation with a
laughing reference to the Octagon Fire.
"I used to look for your name on, the
sporting page of my newopaper." he said,
"but now I have to turn to the account
of socialist meetings and of fires. Wa
it a close a shave a the paper made
out?"
"It certainly wa," said Tommy, "it
waan't Just twice over; It waa five times
over, and I didn't think my beard would
ever grow again." '
"How did the famous Celestla behave?"
"Like a brick, except when she fainted
after getting all the ether girl out."
"I am very Interested to see her. "''said
'Barclay, "and to hear he apeak. A friend
of mine heard her address to tha Bhlrt
makera' union, after the fire, and came
away talking like a lunatic. How does
she Impress you?"
. "A a speaker?"
Barclay smiled and nodded. Tommy
blushed and did. not smile.
, "She ha a .beautiful vote," he said,
"she seem to' speak to one person at a
time until everyone has been spoken to.
The most .tnterestintf Part 1 her power
cf convincing people. Men whom I have
known to have had opposite theorle
seem to come right' around to her way
of thinking."
"Tour suggested Barclay.
"No. She doesn't seem to .alter my be
lief at all." ' '
"She claims to ' have been sent direct
from Heaven. Do people believe that?"
"The ma of the people who have
heard her don't even question It. Per
sonally I questlop It very much. But if
the police or me city can i una out
where he doe oome from pretty quick.
I'll begin to believe It myself."
"She believe it of course." Berolay
aatd thl with a sarcasm which his
adopted son wa quick to resent,
"I will stake my aoul, tr," he eald,
"that he believe it."
