lesson for the whole school which has
been in successful used for thirty
fiv years is still the most practical
and effective system for the great

expressed need of a graded system of
lessons and voted to ask the Louis-
ville convention to instruct the les-

A jar a whistle a flag waved and
the train began to shudder and tc
move. The man kissed the smoothly
gloved hand that lay on the window
.nd drew back. As he did so another
maja came up the platform running
with great strides caught at the han
die of the door shooj; it and m it re
slated leaped on the step of the car
rlage amid the shouts of porters and
waa borne out of the station clinging
to the carriage door.
"The door's locked" she said from
within.
The man on the step thrust a bas
through the window on to the seat and
felt In his pocket Then he moved s
cotrple of feet past the carriage door
Unlocked it with a railway key steppeo
Into the carriage and closed the dooi
after him.
"That was a near thing!" he said
And now for the first time the fellow
travelers looked In each other's face.
His mouth grew stern. The pink
faded from her face and a greenish
pallor crept up to the blue eyes.
"You!" Bhe said.
He looked at her critically raised
his hat without speaking and busied
himself with the straps of his bag
From this he took a book and In il
read sedulously never raising his
eyes.
She watched him by stolen glances
met always by the defense of his
drooped lids. A handsome man big
and broad-shouldered.
Grown bolder she watched him now
no more by fleet snatched instants
but steadily as the train rattled and
swung in Its gathering speed. She
"You!" She Said.
looked at the firm hands that held th
book. A year ago those hands had held
hers; she trembled at the memory ol
their touch. She looked at his lips
firm smooth pale Hps set in a thin
Jlne. A year ago those lips
It wls at this moment that he raised
his eyes and looked at her. A hot
blush covered her face and ears and
neck. He looked at her for one brief
lnatant a faint amusement in his half-
eJoswl eyes and resumed his read'
Ing.
"Oh don't read!" she said denser-
at?l "The train doesn't stop for
hours. Surely you won't keep three
hour silence with an old acquaint-
aaoe Just because "
H laid down the book at once.
"I beg your pardon" he said eourte-
owly. "You were so well provided
with traveling companions that 1
fared to force the conversation of an-
other on you."
His glance rested on her papers for
an Instant and for a longer Instant
on the vwlets she carried.
She laid the flowers on the cushion
beside her.
"I am going to be married on Mon-
day" she said abruptly.
"A thousand congratulations" he
said smiling.
"I am to be Lady Leamington" she
said.
"You are going to marry him?" The
scorn in his Toice stung her like a
whip.
She raised her head proudly.
"I consider myself extremely fortu-
nate" she aald and took up a maga-
zine. And now it was he who watched
her with a gaze so fixed that she felt
It iu fefery utirve. Suddenly he
shrugged his shoulders and moved to
the seat opposite hers. Then he
spoke.
"Of all the Tirtues I have always
supposed reticence to be the most ad-
mirable as it Is the rarest. I have
striven to practice it. Therefore when
you broke off our engagement I did
not seek to Justify myBelf. Pride may
have been for something in my silence
also I scorn to deny it I own that
my pride suffered when I found that
you could throw me away at the first
word from a stranger."
She made a movement to speak but
he went on: "I was foolish I admit;
but you see I thought you loved me.
Yoa must make allowance for the
other delusions that followed on that.
The point Is that I was not going to
defend myself since you who ought
to have defended me if you had
loved me I mean of course set your-
self as my accuser. But that's all
over thank God! I can now feel a sin-
cere If slight interest in your wel-
fare as an old friend; and I think I
oueht to tell you the unpleasant truth
Lord Leamington 701U tr-
trm'e bridegroom."
"I wiiH you wouldn't talk like a
book" aha ald. "If you want to abuse
my future husband do it la plain
English."
"I will" he said. "He told you that
he found a girl is my rooms at mid-
night and that her arms were rounJ
my neck. You asked me if this were
true. I admitted it. You asked for no
explanation and I gave none."
"No explanation" she began an-
gri y "could have "
"No I know; but now it is differ-
ent I can't let an old friend marry
that man In Ignorance of the facts.
He had arranged to call for me at
twelve; I had an article to finish and
we were going on to the Somersets'
ball. At about a quarter to twelve I
opened the door to a knock. It was
not Leamington but this girl. I knew
her very slightly. She had lost her
last train to Putney or Peckhani or
somewhere would I help her? It was
like a scene in a play don't you know.
I was discretion absolute left the
door open gave her wine and biscuits
and proposed to charter a homeward
cab for her. Then came Leamington's
step on the stair and at that as at a
signal Bhe flung her arms round my
neck. I should feel like a hairdres
ser's apprentice in telling you this but
I know now why it was done. It was
Leamington's last cast for you; and
he threw the double six confound
him!"
She looked at him with shining
eyes.
"Is this true?" she said. "Why didn't
you tell me before?"
"You never asked me."
"It Is only your word against his"
"After a few years of married Ufa
you will be better able to judge ol
their relative values" he said leaning
back in his corner.
She lifted the violets to her face
the cool freshness of them was like a
child's kiss.
"Charles" she said softly and
reached out a timid hand towards him.
jj His face grew stiff and set.

said coldly. "I could not see any old
friend married to a liar and a black
guard without a word of warning."
"I was only I warfted to shake
hands with my old friend to show
that he forgives me." She hardly knew
what she was saying.
"There is nothing to forgive" h
aald. "I had almost forgotten the cir-
cumstances till your face reminded m
of it."
She turned her head to the window
so that he should not see her eyes
With a shriek and a rumble the train
passed into a tunnel. The roar of II
rang in her ear3 and the tears ran
down her face on to the sables. Two
shrieks from the engine the train
quivered and shook with the sudden
stress of the brakes. Then came an
other shriek a crash and the big
gest accident of the year as the
Northern express ran full into the rear
lights of the slow local.
The first-class carriage where pride
and love had fought lay battered and
overturned on the up-line. The deaf
ening noise of steam the clamor of
voices the wailing of children; the
cries of women rang out in the arcb
of the tunnel. But In the first-class
carriage there waa siltnoe and dark-
ness for with the shock all the UghU
had gone out
Presently in the darkness a match
spurted. He raised himself on one el-
bow and tried to drag his other arm
from under the wood that Imprisoned
it. The arm was tightly wedged and
he felt that it was broken. He lit an
other match his teeth set In arony.
and looked round for her. She was
lying quite near him yet not within
reach all twisted up a heap of dark
cloth and furs. Her eyes were closed
and there was blood oa- the ghastly
white of her face.
"My darling! my darling!" he cried
and with that he tore at bis Impris-
oned arm to free it that he might get
to her fought and tore till from sheer
pain he went out of life.
When the sufferers were one by one
drawn out of the wreck he and she
were among the last to be released.
He regained his consciousness in the
anguish of that release.
They bound up his arm and her
head and clinging to each other they
tottered out of the tunnel by the light
of the torches and climbed Into the
relief train. It wa3 crowded with pale
bandaged faces and limbs swathed in
white.
"I shall get out at the first station"
he said and his voice was coldly p
lite. "By the way I didn't qv-w un-
derstand. Does your wedding take
place in the morning?"
She leaned a little against his unin-
jured shoulder and so closely was the
earrlage packed that he could not draf
away.
"If you wish It" she said.
"I beg your pardon?" he questioned
courteously.
"Ot hush!" she whispered. "You
cannot go on pretending any more
now. When you thought I was dead
you called me your darling. Do you
remember?"
"You are mistaken" he said but th
answered with eyet that laughed at
him from under the white' bandage
"Don't scowl at me. I am not a bit
afraid of you. Nothing matters now I
know that you love me. You will see
I shall have everything my own
way."
Under the sables her hand in its
torn grimy glove slipped into his. He
clauped It and: "You have exorcised
the devil" he said softly and her
fingers clung to his.
"Say it again now you know that I
am not dead."
So he whispered In her er in that
crowded carriage the most banal ol
leve'a banalities: "My darling!"
