"Vhoc girl nri' you?"
"Your."."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure."
"Positive?"
'Tos-i-llve."
"Whose eyes mo those?"
"Your."."
"Whose lips?"
"Vouch."
"Show me."
A crescent) moon pushed INr-lf over
the edge of a sliver-tinted elotid. and
peered down upon tho porch of the
Country club. It wiw two Inures nes
tled In the shadows; mid then discreet
ly withdrew. Neither of the figures
moved. From the dunce Hour came
the sound of soft music Then the hoy
he was only a hoy, twenty-two iiml
Just out of collect spoke again.
"I'm crazy, crazy about you," he
Kiihl.
"Are you sure?"
It wus u glrly's voice that nn
swered ; u voice that reminded one of
far-off sliming In the depths of a
(ireain forest.
"Sure."
"Positive?"
"Pos-l-tlVf."
A long moment chipM'd.
"And I'm always going to be." he
mhled. "Always mid always."
The miMe died away, Minifying tho
end of the dunce, uud footsteps mound
ed on I he stone porch. The two peo
ple In the shadows became more ills,
tlnctly two people. A moment ago
they had resembled one Indetermin
ate hulk.
"Hae you I lie next dance with any
one?" the boy asked.
"Xo."
"Then we can keep on sitting out
here?"
"Yes." She paused a moment. "1
want lo tell you something."
"What?'-
"I'll let you know In just three min
utes." The music started again and the peo
ple silting near by passed through the
doorway. The two were alone again,
so nobody but the girl heard what the
hoy hud to say.
"I Ioe you," he whispered.
A pair of round arms encircled his
neck; cool, white arms which he had
dreamed about for ages.
The girl was silent for a moment he
fore she spoke.
"I hate to spoil this wonderful, won
derful evening," she said, "hut 1 must
do It. 1 simply must tell you some
thing." "What is It?"
"It's about Arthur Thorp," she ex
plained. Her voice wavered a little,
"lie and I have have known each oth
er nil our lives. We've been very,
very good friends, and it's been gen
erally understood that we would he
married some day."
"You haven't promised him, have
you?"
"No. We never said much about It;
but all the time you were away at
college we went together steadily, and
and he's been saving up."
"P.ut if .miii aren't engaged to him
It's all right." The hoy moved for
wind Impulsively. "I love you," he
said.
"I know, dear." She placed her
hand on his arm. "Hut don't you see
that I must tell Arthur llrst? It's only
fair to hint; and If he and If he
should take It In the wrong way, I
suppose that that I shouldn't become
engaged to you."
The boy looked wistfully In the dis
tance. "I guess It's the only thing to do,"
he s-uid. "When are you going to tell
him?"
"During the next dunce. I have It
with him."
"And how shall I know?"
"You'll know by watching us. As
soon as the music starts, Iihall tell
him thnt I I care for someone else. If
he holds me to my half-promise, wo
will go home. If he doesn't and every
thing is all right, Arthur and I will
dance the encore together."
The music censed, and she arose.
"I am going now."
Through the window the boy saw
her meet the other man and smile Into
his eyes. After what seemed an eter
nity of waiting, the music started for
the next dance. As the moments sped
on, It seemed to the one waiting on
the porch that the suspense was just
a little more than he could hear. And
as he waited, the two upon whom his
thoughts were centered sat together
In another room.
"Arthur," the girl said slowly, "I
know now that 1 can never care for
vim the wav you want me to. There's
.someone else you know who he is
mill I love him because he says won
derful things, and because well, Just
because . . "
Tor a moment the "other fellow"
dropped his head In his hands. Then
he squared his shoulders.
"I understand," he said.
After a brief silence he led her Into
tho main room and danced the very
best he knew how.
Tho boy on tho .porch watched them
for a minute or two. Then he went
to the swinging couch, where he lis
tened with eyes dosed to the rhythmic
notes. And although ho wasn't danc
ing, It was the most wonderful danco
he had ever known.
When the music died away, tho girl
came to where ho was waiting In tho
bhailows.
