It would wave her the embarrassment of breaking the cn HKi'incut herself and nlso do away with nny possibility of n stormy , emotional Interview between them. He had heard her say onee that she disliked violently expressed einoilon. It was on his yacht one August day off I'lne ellff. She wan dressed all In white , Rome simple , costly affair that milted her clear white face and the dark brown eyes that seemed no much nt variance with her bright blond hair. It"o : WV % 4 % % j ; 1y J &J1 It" UK BOUGIIT A QCJAKTEU'H WOKTU ; HE WAS A I'OOlt MAN NOW. So cool and sweet and proud she was that , looking nt her , he had wondered whether she ever was like other girls , If she ever cried , the real old fashioned cry that conies from n helpless heart ache. And now ho was glad that she was the other kind. At least she would not suller over his trouble. Of course Bhe had loved him In a way. He set bis teeth and faced the cool , fresh spring wind that blew across City Hall park. They had both been young and wealthy and proud of each other. The engagement had occurred as a matter of course after his father 'had admit ted him to the firm as a partner. And now It had all gone up In smoke. He hardly realized how as yet , but ho knew enough of the fate of others , to eee ahead only ruin and wreckage and Insolvency for the old Orm. A flower seller stepped hi his way , with a smile of good fellowship. "Vi'lets-flvc n bunch ! " Shirley frowned and theii paused. She loved violets. He had sent some to her every day for months at 75 cents a bunch , great , purple , single petalcd beauties heavy with fragrance and hothouse loveliness. These were double and small and a deep blue. Ho smiled grimly and bought u qunrter's worth. He was n poor man now. Miss Whltworth was at home. He was ushered Into the smaller reception room , the one In old rose and gold that Evelyn liked best. He used to Imagine her there In the brocades and powder cd hair of the sun king's reign. All that sort of thing seemed to suit her. She had not heard yet. Of that he was sure when she entered and greet ed him. There was the same cool , ewcct grace In her manner , the easy , well bred content In her eyes , as she emlled nt him , her betrothed husband. He did not give her the ilowers , but held them , the poor little scanty clus ters , with n bit of cheap silver foil wrapped around their stems. They floemed so out of plnce here In her en vlronmcnt. "It is like spring , Is It not ? " she ealil. "Don't you want to drive through the pnrk with me ? I have Just ordered Iho carriage. " He raised his head to make some careless , conventional answer when suddenly the longing swept over him to end It all and get away , nwny froit. her clenr , dnrk eyes and Uie delicious hnrm of her presence. She had never Boomed so beautiful and dear to him as now. "I can't go , " ho hurst out In a reck less , boyish fashion. "Evelyn , the old firm hns gone up In the Yntes crash. 'JPlio governor's nearly ready for the eulclde act , nnd I why , wo haven't got enough left solid to keep you In flowers nnd theater boxes for a year. 'And I came to sny goodby. " She snt very quietly nnd looked nt the violets. "Aren't they pretty ? " He laid them on the table and flushed. "They seemed a fitting symbol of the ntate of affairs. I got them In City llnll park. They were 5 cents a bunch. " She rose and crossed to the tnblc , tier bock half turned to him as aho 7nised the violets to her fnco. "I am glnd you thought of them. tThoy are a symbol of remembrance. " The solitaire on her loft hand spar kled brightly among the violets , and Shirley's face hardened as he won dered who would place the next one there. He rose , feeling dull and help less. less.That That IB all , 1 think , " he Bald. " 1 only wanted to tell you llrst so that you might be spared any scene or emo tionalism. " Still she was silent , lie looked at her with eyes full of pain and pride. Another Milltalre was sparkling on the petals of the violets , and while he gazed It was joined by many , lie stared at them awkwardly as he real ized that she was actually crying. Itul why ? "Don't , dear ; don't do that , please. I said you were free. " lie had not meant to , but some way just for the last time lie was holding her hands clo-o to bin lips anil looking down Into her brown eyes eyes that seemed strangely soft and lender through their mist of ( earn. "Hut don't you know how could you think" Her voice was low and broken. "I don't want to be free. " His hands tightened over hers , but he could not speak Of course she did not understand what he had told her. He must be strong and save her from danger. "Why do you make me say It all , Jack ? " She hesitated , waiting , then went on : "I don't care about the linn or or anything except you. U only means a fresh start , and you are young , and and won't It be easier to start to gether , Jack ? " lie released her hands. "You're awfully good to me , " he said. "Hut you don't understand what It all means , dear ; you can't. It will take years to build up again , and you can't be married to a poor man. " She was laughing up at htm through her tears. "You foolish , foolish boy I Don't you see ? It wasn't the money. Did you think that was all that mattered ? Don't you know that night on the yacht ? I was steering , and you put your arm around me and kissed me and called me your pilot , and I prom ised to be your pilot for life ? Don't you remember ? And nothing has changed , only a little money. I am still your pilot , am I uot ? " She held out her hands pleadingly to him. Hut ho closed his eyes and stood With lifted head and clinched lists praying for strength for her sake until suddenly ho felt her arms around his neck and her hair brushed his cheek. "I won't be given up , " she said. "I won't , I won't. You ought not to even suggest It now when you need me most , and and I love you. " There was a tap on the door a few moments later. "The carriage , Miss Whltworth. " "Presently. " Miss Whltworth's voice was happy and smothered somewhat. She drew away from his arms nnd gathered up the scattered violets. "The darlings , " she said , " 1 love them best of all I" Cllflllod Hit" In certain parts of New Guinea wal laby , n species of kangaroo , are vcr > plentiful , and the traveler in search of sport linds the pur.sult of them an ex citing occupation. Wallaby steak Is a refreshing change from canned meats , and the natives are only too glad to have the remnants of the carcass. A writer In the Hiuhiilnton tells an amus Ing Incident connected with the ani mal. mal.He He had been ashore In one of the sparsely populated regions of the coast and secured , four wallaby , an ample supply for the whole party , native guides and servants included. Hut he found that although wallaby is re garded as such n delicacy that no trouble Is considered too great to obtain - tain It none of the native boys In the party would touch It. This was a mystery until one of them explained that they had been trained In childhood In the belief that If they ate wallaby before reaching a certain age It would stop their growth. These boys all belonged to the part of Ilia country where wallaby arc few , and one can Imagine the crafty old folks seated round the festive pot and winking at one another as the young people declined the succulent dainty. Those who see an unwarrantable de ception In the fostering of such a IK > - llef on the part of the young people must ask themselves If they have never told a child that "two pieces of pic will make little folks sick.
