"How can you say such things?" he exclaimed. "You know you must know what these days have been to me." "After all, I believe I should do better if I trusted to my aJpcn- stock !" And laughingly she began to spring down the rough de-scent, a little proud of hor own grace and agility and a little glad to baffle and !<;':' him for a few minutes. "Take care! take care!" cried Frithiof, hurrying after her. Then, with a stifled cry, he sprung for- ward to rescue her, for the alpen- stock had slipped on a stone, and she was rolling down the steep in- cline. How he managed it he never realized, but love seemed to lend him wings, and the next thing he knew was that he was kneeling <m the grass only two or three feet from the sheer cliff-like side with Blanche in his arms. "Are you hurt?" lie questioned, breathlessly. "No," she replied, trembling with excitement. "Not hurt at all, only shaken and startled." He 1 lifted her a little further from the <-dge. "How strong you are," she said, "and IH.IW cleverly you caught mo! . Yet, now that it is over you Kxik quite haggard and white. I nm really not hurt at all. It punished me well fur thinking I could get <>n without you. You see I couldn't!" She s.'it up and took off her hat, smoothing back her disordered luiir. "If only 1 might always serve you !" he cried. "Oh. lilaiirhc, I love you ! I love you ! Will you not trust yourself to mo?" All in a moment she was con- quered ; Klie. could not even make a feint of resistance, but just put hor Irnul in his. "I will always trust you," she faltered. Then, as she felt his strong arm round her and his kisses on her cheek, there Hashed through her mind a description sho had once read of "a strong man from the North, Light-lucked, with eyes of danger- ous gray." It was a love worth having, nho thought to herself; a lovo to be proud of ! "Hul, Krithiof," sho> began, af- ter a timeless pause, "we/ must keep our secret just for a little while. You see, my father is not here, and "I/ft me write to him and ask his consent," exclaimed Krithiof. "No, no, do not write. Come over to England in October and we him yourself, that will !< so much better." "Mut we wait so long?" said Krithiof, hiii face clouding. "It is only a few wiM-ks ; papa will not bo at home till then. Every one is away from London, you know. l>on't look so anxious; I do not know your face ; it isn't happy ; you wer never meant to be grave. As for papa, I can make him do ex- actly what I like; you need not. be nfraid that he will not consent. ('nine! I have promised to trust If, you and yet you doubt mo." "Donbt you?" ho cried. "Never! I trust you before all the. world; nnd if you tell me to wait, why, then, I must obey." "How I lov you for Baying that I" cried Blanche, clinging to him. "To think that you who are so strong should say that to me ! It seems wonderful. But indeed, indeed, you need not doubt me. I love you with my whole heart. I love you as I never thought it j-os- sible to love." CHAPTER IV. "We were beginning to th'nk some accident had happened to you," said Sigrid, who stood wait- ing at the door of the hotel. "And so it did," said Blanche, laughing. "I think I should have broken my neck if it hadn't been for your brother. It was all the fault of this treacherous alpenstock which played me false." And then, with a sympathetic little group of listeners, Blanche gave a full account of her narrow escape. "And you arc really not hurt at all? Not too much shaken to care to dance to-night?" "Not a bit," said Blanche, mer- rily. "And you promised to put on your peasant costume and show us the spring dans, you know." "So I did. I must make haste and dress, then," and Sigrid ran upstairs, appearing again before long in a simply made dark skirt, white sleeves and chemisette, and red bodice, richly embroidered in gold. Her beautiful hair was worn in two long plaits down her back, and the costume suited her to per- fection. There followed a merry supper in the dependence where all meals were served, then every one adjourned to the hotel salon, the tables and chairs were hastily pushed aside, and dancing began. Hcrr Falck's eyes rested content- edly on the slim little figure in the maize-colored dress who so oflen danced with his son ; and indeed, Blanche looked more lovely than ever that evening, for happiness and excitement had brightened her dark eyes, and deepened the glow of color in her cheeks. The father felt proud, too, of his children, when, in response to tho general entreaty, Frithiof and Sigrid dancod the spring dans together with its graceful evolutions and quaint ges- tures. Then nothing would do but Frithiof must play to them on the violin, after which Blanche volun- teered to teach every one Sir Roger de Cover-ley, and old and young joined merrily in the country dance and BO the evening passed on all too rapidly to its close. It was a scene which somehow lived on in Cecil's memory ; the merry dancers, the kindly landlord, Olc Kvikne sit- ting near the door and watching them, the expression of xmtout visible in Herr Falck's face && he sat beside him, the pretty fa'.-es and picturesque attire of Sig.'id and Swanhild, the radiant bv.-au.ty of Blanche Morgan, the unclouded happiness of Frithiof. The evening had done her good, its informality, its hearty, unaffect- ed happiness and merriment made it a strange contrast to any other dance she could recollect ; yet even here there was a slight shadow. She could not forgot those words which sho had overheard on board the steamer, could not get rid of the feeling that some trouble hung over the Falck family, and that hidden away, even in this Norwegian para- disc, there lurked somewhere- tho inevitable serpent. Even as nho mused over it, Frithiof crossed the room and made his bow before her, and in another minute bad whirled her off. Happiness shone in his eyes, lurkrd in the tones of his voice, ."Mr. I fresh spirit to his (lancing; she thought sho hnd never In-fore seen such an incarnation of perfect content. They talked of Norwegian books, and her interest in his country seemed to please, him. "You can easily get English translations of our best novelists," he said. "You should road Alex- ander Kielland's books, and Hjorn- scn's ringing all day in my head, wo. will make Sigrid say it to us, for I only know the chorus." Then as tho wait/, came to an end he l"d her toward his sister, who was standing with Hoy near the piano. Just then a polka was struck up and he hastily made his how to Blanche. "Mfiv I have the pleasure of this dance?" he said, in his condescend- ing tone. ^ "Thank you, but I ara so tired," she replied. "Too tired for any morn to-night." "Yes," said Sigrid, glancing at her. "You look worn out. Miin- kcggcn is iv tiring climb. Let UB come upstairs, it is high time that naughty little sister of mine was in bed " "The reward of virtue," said Cyril Morgan, rejoining his cousin Florence. "I have been polite to the little bourgeois^ and it has cost mo nothing. It is always best in a place like this to bo. on good terms with every one. Wo shall never be likely to come across these, peo- ple, again ; the acquaintance is not likely to bore us." His words wore perfectly true. That curiously assorted gathering of different nationalities would nev- er again meet, and yet thoso days of close, intimacy were destined to influence forever, either for good or for evil, tho lives of each one. All through tho. Sunday Blanche had kept in bed, for though the ' t Amundsen Discovered The South Pole But Scott Remains To Polish It Up. The best by test.

It was not till the Monday morn- ing, just before the arrival of the steamer, that Frithiof could find the ortDortunity for which he had impatiently waited. They walked through the little garden, ostensib- ly to watch for the steamer from the mound by the- flag-staff, but they only lingered there for a min- ute, glancing anxiously down the fjord where in the distance could be eeen the unwelcome black speck. On the further side of the mound, down among the trees and bushes, was a little sheltered seat. It was there that they spent their last mo- ments, there that Blanche listened to his eager words of love, there that she again bade him wait till October, at the same time giving him such hope and encouragement as must surely have satisfied the most exigeant lov-sr. All too soon the bustle of depar- ture reached them, and tho steam- whistle most hateful and discord- ant of sounds rang and resounded among the mountains. "I must go," she exclaimed, "or they will be coming to look for me. This is our real good-bye. On the steamer it will be just a hand-shik3, but now" ind she. lifted a lovely, fuco to his.
