By RUr AYRES.
Anne came rck to the drawing
room almost aMtoon as the Fortune
Hunter had let it; he looked quick
ly round. ,
'"John

"Gobe outfShe echoed the words
with swift . ieathlesiness. "Why
where has hi gone?"
"My dcirgirl, how do I know?
I tiw hi fake his hat and coat
and go ouffthat's all I know; lie
went dimly you did."
Anne tod for a moment, her
hands c'v(ed together.
"lie never told me he was going
out " sl:e poke the words invoU
untarilv theo stood, as Tommy
smiled unpleasantly
"You' don't suppose he tells jo-j
everything he a going to oo, Co
you?" -he said nastily.
Anr walked out of the room
without answering. She was ashamed
because lately her love for Tommy
seemed to have diminished.
flie front door was half open, and
went out onto the step.
.It was a chilly night, with the
riellow breath of autumn every
vhere; it seemed unusually dark,
wo. and the skv was full of heavy
clouds.
Where had John gone? Her
cart was beating fast with apprc-
lension.
Why had he not told her he was
going out. She ran upstairs and
took a long, white wrap from the
wardrobe; her hands shook as she
fastened it, and it was m vain that
she tried to tell herself that her
fears were groundless.'
What could have happened to
him? Where could he have gone,
except for a stroll down the vil
lage? He would be back directly,
and then she would be able to laugh
at herself. But her nerves felt torn
and on edge, and her nervous su
perstition of the afternoon came
back to her afresh.
If a crow caw on, two, thref!
Griff will come quickly to thee!"
The foolish rhyme had been m
an old book belonging to her nur
sery days, together with a number
of other ancient superstitions, and
she had never thought of them un
til this afternoon, when it had sud
denly seemed that a calamitous
thing had befallen her.
Jhe ran downstairs again and
past the study door. She knew that
Qeoffry Foster was still there talk
'.rag to her uncle, and she hurried by
and out into the garden.
The soft lap-lap of the river broke
the silence like an insidious voice,
and Anne quickened her pace to
escape from it.
The garden gate stood open, and
she looked up and down the road,
straining her' eyes through the
darkness in a vain attempt to see.
Supposing he never came back
any more! A suffocating feeling
rose in her throat and she .wrung
her hands. Supposing he had walked
out of her life as suddenly and unex
pectedly as he had returned to it.
Panic .closed about her heart. ' She
began to remember the many hard
tmnps sne nan saiu 10 iiuii. duu u
seemed now that all along she had
been too critical, too impatient. '
He had suffered in the past more
cruelly than she, far more, because
he had paid a penalty whicii naa
been undeserved. He was not
guilty! He had told her so with his
own lips . , . . and yet-. . . could
she believe it was the truth, when
she knew that he had so often lied
to her since? -
She was turning back into the
garden when she heard a footstep
a long way up the road.
Her heart seemed to leap into ner
throat as she . stood, straining her
ears to listen. Was it he? The
steps came nearer and nearer, and
when it was but a little distance off
she called his name. "John!"
The footsteps quickened, and with
sudden passionate relief, she broke
into a run to meet him.
"Oh. John!" She was in his arms,
clineinsr to him as if she could never
let him go,' every thing forgotten but
the relief that he was with her again.
A -sudden break in the clouds
Overhead let through a glimmer of
pale moonlight and showed the For
tune Hunter the race that lay against
his shoulder. There were tears on
her dark lashes, and her lips were
quivering. His arms tightened more
closely about her.
Had something happened that she
had co:i;e to meet him like this? He
was afraid to ask, and after a mo
ment she broke outs "I was afraid
I thought you had gone I
thought"
Ihen she turned her tace awayj
and broke into bitter sobbing.
The Fortune Hunter held her
closely, and his face was grey with
pain in the moonlight. If this was
not their good-bye it would soon
have to come, he knew; and he
looked past her bowed head to where
the road wound away m the moon
light like a white ribbon the road
by which he would presently go out
of her life forever.'
When presently she raised her
head to wipe the tears away he bent
and kissed her without speaking, a
long solemn kits, looking into her
eyes as if he were trying to remem
ber their ieetnes tor an time.
"I love you I love you!" he said,
and she answered trcmelously, as she
had answered hi in once before:
"And I love you with all my
heart and soul!"
He bent his head to hers, so that
she could not see his face as he an
swered hoarseley:
"My dear my dear if only I
were worth loving!" She hardly
caught the words, and would not
have understood their passionate re
gret if she had; for the moment thc
was ipnte happy; he had torgotten
everything that had caused hrr or
row; he loved her, ana the knowledge
of his love was all sufficient.
"Tomorrow" she said presently
her eheek anainst ns "tomorrow
you and I She broke oir, teelmg
his arms relax a little. " hy, what
is it?" she asked apprehensively.
He shook his head.
"Nothing what were you Roing to
say?"
Hut in his heart was all the sor
row of the world. Tomorrow! Who
knew that there would be a tomorrow
for him with her. at all events t
Passionate words rose to his lips
but he dare not utter them. He just
held her and kissed her her hair and
lier eyes and the hands that clung to
him so tremblingly.
The sound of voices' in the garden
beyond roused them Mr. Harding's
voice and Geoffry Fosters and
and Anne gave a little stif fled ' cry,
"Oh. I don t want them to see
nif"
The Fortune Hunter put his arm
round her and drew her a little tnr
ther down the road; where thicker
trees made a heavy shadow and they
heard Foster say good-night and
walk awav in the opposite direction
Anne spoke then. "Johnl Tomor
row wi it be like all the others-
I mean if only we could always be
happy as we are now.
He answered her agitatedly.
"It's always been my fault never
yours! But if things have gone
wronor. Anne, its not because I
don't love you always remember
that. Whatever happens what
ever happens I love you! I love
Voul"
She held back from him, trying
to see his eves.
"Why do you talk like that? You
snund vou sound as if you were
going away John!"
"I shall never go away unless
pou send me."
She gave a'little sigh of relief. ,
"Then it will be never," she said.
They were silent for a time, then
she laughed softly.
"John, do you think everyone who
loves someone else quarrels and
makes it up again, like we do?"
"I don't know."
She put her face up to his and
kissed him softly.
"I hate quarreling with you and
yet we don't really quarrel, do we?
There was a puzzled note in her
voice. "It seems as if as if things
just go wrong without any reason."
Without any reason! Her fond
words seemed to mock him. '
She went on softly: "Before you
canie home I used to think how nice
I would-ahvays be to you I used
to think of all, the things I would
do for you to make you happy."
"Anne " He tried to stop her; it
was almost more than he could bear.
"But I'm afriad I haven't been
very nice," -she went on, sighing.
"Sometimes I've said cruel things
to you, John "
"They were only what I " de
served." ,
"I ought to have trusted you I
oughht to have waited for you to
explain I wish now, oh, I wish I
had!" 7 '- ,
The Fortune Hunter could not an- j
swer, and she said again: "Some
times you've looked so unhappy
its almost broken my heart .
"Oh, my darling "
She was heaping coals of fire on
his head. His very soul was full of
shame, knowing his own unworthi
ness. He silenced her lips with
kisses. Presently he took her back
to the house. There was a light
in the drawing-room, and through
the open window they could see Mr.
Harding sitting in his favorite chair
reading. Everything looked just
the same as usual, and yet ths For
tune Hunter knew that nothing was
the same, that he walked now in
very truth on the edge of ruination.
A day an hour! what did it mat
ter? It was there, irrevocably
Mailing for lu'in. Just before they
went in, he drew Anne again into
his arms. v
"You've Leu happy tonight
have you been happy i" he askej
desperately. He longed to hrsr her
say so jut once. It would be one
sweet memory to take with him into
a sunless future.
She rained herself on tiptoe anil
put her arms around his neck. "I
could always be happy with you
if you would let me," sire said.
lie sent 'her into the house alone,
and presently followed.
Tommy was half way up - the
stairs, and he turned and grinned
irritatingly at the Fortune Hunter.
"Anne's been, looking for you,"
he said. "I believe she though: you
had bunked oif for good." His grin
widened. "She'll tie vou to her apron
strings fast enough when you are
married" He went up another few
steps and added meaningly, "if you
ever are." ,
The Fortun Hunter's face flamed;
he went up the stairs two at a time
and caught the boy by the shoul
der. "Look here, you little devil," he
said savagely. "If you've got any
thing to say to me, say it and have
done. I'm sick of the way you
crawl about the' house, grinning and
sneering. I'll wring your neck if you
don't stop it."
Tommy wriggled free of him, his
face -was livid and his eyes cow
ardly; he limped off at top speed.
"You shall pay for this," he said
under his breath as he rushed for
safety to his own room, and locked
the door; "I'll' make you sorry you
ever spoke to me like that."
The Fortune Hunter stood look
ing after , him, breathing hard. The
little outburst of temper had done
him good, and he knew now that
his feeling towards Tommy had
been smouldering into trouble for
some time.
He lit a cigaret and stood at the
open door smoking.
He thought of those moments in
Fernic's cottage, and wondered
what their result would be. That the
old man hated him he knew well
enough and ho was positive that the
fact of their relationship would in
no way lessen his hatred. -
He thought ot his mother, anu
out of the past little incidents o!
their life together before she died
came creeping back to him.
He remembered how seldom slit
had spoken of his father, save n
say how hard and cruel he was; hi
knew that she had adopted a differ
ent name after she had left him, sc
as to be entirely free of a man whom
she had loathed.
So his own name was really Fer
nie! It seemed odd that it shoulc!
be that, after all the' many he hai1
assumed during the past IS years.
He never Would adopt it, what
ever happened; he was not proud of
the relationship. Then he wondered
what , Mr. Harding would think
when he knew, what Anne would
think she had always hated Ferine
Mr. Harding came into the ha'J
behind him.
Is that you, John? Has Anne
gone to bed?"
"Yes. Is it late?"
"It's nearly 11. I'm tired lock
up, will you:
Yes, sir.
The Fortune Hunter threw his
cigaret into the garden and shut the
front door. As he was fastening
the bolts he glanced back at Mr.
Harding. He was standing at the
foot of the stairs, and for a moment,
before he turned away, the Fortune
Hunter caught a little glint of tri
umph in his eyes that sent his heart
beats racing'.
He knows, too! was the quick
thought that leaped in his mind.
and then "Tomorrow! where shall
I be at this time tomorrow?"
