Then, reaching the head of the stairs, he turned directly toward Eve's sitting room aud, gaining the door, knocked. The strength of hla eagerness, the quick besting of Ms pulse as he waited for a response, surprised him. He had told himself many times that his passion, however strong, would never again conquer as It bad done taro nights ago, aud the fact that he bad come thus candidly to Eve's room was to his mind a proof that temptation could be dared. Nevertheless there wae something disconcerting to a strong man in thia merely physical perturbation, and when Eve's voice came to him. giving permission to enter, be paused for an Instant to steady himself. Then, with sudden decision, he opened the door and walked Into the room. , The blinds were partly drawn, there waa a scent of violets In the air, and a fire glowed warmly In the grate. He noted these things carefully, telling himself that n man should always be alertly sensible of Ida surroundings. Then nil at once the nice balancing of detail suddenly gnve way.

For almost tye first time In Lodcr'a knowledge of her tbo vitality and force that he had vaguely apprehended below her quiet serene exterior sprang up like a flame wltbto whose radlua things are Illuminated.

"Don't!" she said. Don't! I don't want explanations. I want to to enjoy the moment without having things analysed or smoothed away. Cant yon understand? Cant yon aee that I'm wonderfully, terribly happy to to have you aa you are!" Again her voice broke a break that might have been a laugh or a sob.
