the youth in her face, lie h;,d often
v. ondered if she could have been half
SO lovely When she was a girl before
the faint shodow* and the tender lit
tle lines lent depth and mystery to
her eyes, and the single white lock
swept back amid the powdered dusk
r-f her hair.
While the young man walked
rapidly up Frank I in Street, he saw
before him the long, delightful r?um
beyond the pyramidal cedars and the
hedge of bo* lie saw the ruoujr
glow of the fire mingling with the
paler light of amber lamps, and this
mingled rndiance(shiniiig on the rich

rare Kngllsh print* which covered
the walls. Itc saw Wide-open creamy
roses in alabaster bowls which were
Blattered everywhere, on tables, on
stools, on window-seats, and on the
rich carving of the Spanish desk in
one corner. Against the curtains of
gold silk there was the hough of
twisted pine he had broken, and
against tin pine branch atood the flg
t:ro of Corlnna in her gown of soft
red. which melted like a spray of au
tumn foliage into the colors of the
room She vas a tall woman, with
a glorious h>ad and eyes that re
minded Stepheh of a forest pool in
autumn. Who had first aald of her.
he wondered, that she looked like an
Oi toher morning?
As he approached the shop, the
glow shone out on him through the
dull gold curtains, and he traced the
crooked pine bough sweeping across
the thin silk background like the
bold free sketch of a Japanese print.
When he rang the bell a minute later,
the door was opened by Corlnnn, who
was holding a basket of marigolds.
"We were just going," she said, "as
Koon as X had put these flowers in
w a tor."
She drew back into the room, bend
ing over the low brown bowl thai
she filled, while Stephen went over
to the fire, and greeted the two old
men who were sitting in deep arm
chairs on either side of the hearth.
It was like stepping into another
world, he thought, as he inhaled a
full breath of the warmth and the
fragrance of roses; it -was as If a
door Into a dream hail suddenly
opened, and he had passed out of the
night and the cold Into a place where
all was color and fragrance and
pleasant magic. The other was real

I hoped I'd catch you.'1 he said
Ktrentching out his hands to the log
hre. "I felt somehow that you hadn't
gone, late as It Is." While he spoke
he was thinking, not of Corlnna, but
of the strange woman he had left in
the Square. (Jneer how that Incident
had bitten into his mind. Try as he
might, he couldn't shake himself fret
from !t.

arid you look an if you had Hunn thlnR !

"I have." Iih said, and then no i
turned frunt her to the two old men
who were talking drowsily in voices :
that sounded as far off to Stephen '
as the murmuring of bees In sum-]
mer meadows He knew that it was
real, that It was the lift- iie hud al- I
ways lived, and yet he couldn't get
rid of t hi- feeling that '"ormnn and
the two old men and the charming
surroundings were all nurt of a play. I
mid that in a little while he should
go out of the theater and step hack
among the sordid actualities.
