"It's all much' more beautiful," he said stumblingly. "I can't" He turned and looked down at her. "Hut I can't stay here." he went on with a sort of rush, "your uncle " Her eyes opened wide. .' "Why uncle will just love to have you," she said. "Poor dearl He's been so worried. He never thought you would really come at all; he al ways said that I was wasting my time. He was ever so angry when I would not look it any any of the other men who who She laughed. "Well, I did tell you that there were other men didn't I?" she ap pealed. He , echoed ber words slow I v. "Yes oh. yes. You did tell me." But he hardly heard. He was won dering how on earth, he could ex plain to her, what excuse tie could make to get out of the house and away before the fraud was dis covered. She seemed quite unconscious of his agitation. She went on eagerly: "And is Tommy like what you thought he was? Poor Tommy, he's been longing for you to come. I've always read him bits of your letters, and since you said you had a bear skin for him he's talked about it every day. You have brought it haven't vou?" The Fortune Hunter opened his mouth to speak, and shut it again with a little snap. There was a grin of amusement in his blue eyes, "Oh! he shall have his bearskin all right," he said after a moment, and wondered how it was that if John Smith had known this girl so well and intimately he had never before met either her uncle or the boy, Tommy. . . ' It was obviously a situation from which to escape as soon as possible. The only wonder was that he had not already given himself hopelessly away. Why, he did not even know the girl's surname, or the place from which he himself was supposed to have come. He ran a nervous finger round the inside of his collar. He felt as if he could not breathe. "Can't we go out in the garden?" he asked abruptly. 1 This rooms so hot . ... He knew it was not; the room was deliciously cool and filled with the soft' river breeze, but it felt like a prison lrom which he longed to escape. She led the way on to the lawn. and the Fortune Hunter followed: he glanced down at his ill-fitting suit and laughed. Will the neighbors be shocked? he asked. Anne turned and laughed. "No one can see us; this house is very secluded, bee how. lovely the trees are." - Her voice softened shvlv.

The sense, of; danger and discovery angered him. , What a, fool he had been to carry things so far; it was unlike his- usual foresight and cautiousness. He echoed her words with an ef-, fort. "Aren't they like?". He slipped a hand suddenly through her arm. drawing her close to his side. "You tell me what they are like," he said. Her head dropped a little and he had to bend to catch her. shy words. ; It was in a place like that near some willows just like that when you first, kissed me." There was a little silence; then the Fortune Hunter said, rathef shalcilv: "Well, supposing I kiss you again." She gave a little laughing protest. "Oh, someone will see us. Ohl and that's uncle calling " The fortune Hunter released her with a little vexed laugh as Mr. Harding came across the lawn to wards them. "I've told them to have dinner early," -he said, beaming upon them both. "I'm sure you must- be hungry, John may L call you John? We've talked about you by your Christian name tor years, haven t we, Anner She nodded, flushing sensitively. "And ' I've .been telling Tommy that he was pulled out of the river by his future brother-in-law," the old man: went on cheerily, "and he's so excited he can hardly contain him sttt" His eyes twinkled as he looked at the man standing silently beside Anne.".

" "If it's an accident, you don't want to look. I'll go and see what it is. Please, stay where you are." ' She was too much surprised to disobey. She stood with fear in her eyes and her hands pressed agi tatedly to her lips, as the Fortune Hunter went quickly forward and out into the road. . ' He caught the arm of a man hur rying to keep up with the little crowd and spoke to him sharply. "What is it? What's the matter?". The man looked over his shoulder, then stopped. "Somebody they've found in the wood a man." "Dead?" The question came with the sharpness of a pistol shot. Yes; been dead for hours, so they say. They sent for' a doctor and the police."

She made a very charming picture agaiiiat the background of trees in her white frock, and the Fortune Hunter's heart quickened with a little beat of excitement. Was his luck going to hold, after all? He went back to her with slow steps. "Was it an accident?" she akcd anxiously. "Who was it, John?" He could not meet her eyes. "A man; some poor devil they found in the woods. He was dead." "Oh, how sad I I wonder who he was." "They don't know there were tio papers or anything to identify him. . .
