Alan experienced new fear. "You aren't going to tell me now that you think I'm just a nice sort to go around with, are you?" he ask- ed.

Phillipa did not answer.

"Maybe." Alan suggested. his trepidation plainly apparent in his volce, "you dread hearing what you think I'm going to say to you. that it, Phillipa?"

Phillipa smiled enigmatically. "I saw him before he left," she ad- mitted with a slight show of re- luctance.

"He left without saying a word to me," Alan told her. "I didn't know he had been around."

Phillipa properly appraised his astonishment as a mild criticism of Geoffrey.

A look of surprise came over! Alan's face. What in the world was he doing? He could not say "I love you" to this girl, and yet he was proposing to her.

given her feelings for him much consideration., And now she was showing him he might go on and ask her to marry him. in a vague way he took it for granted she was fond of him. But did she really love him? What would their mar- ried life be without love?

The question did not bother him greatly. Natalie had loved him, and made him miserable. But what about fairness to Phillipa? Hadn't she a right to wait for the man she could love?

"You aren't pitying me, are you, Phillipa?" he demanded, spurred by suspicion.

"Alan." It was a reproach. "We've got to think of you, you know," he said to her, "I think I could be grateful for all you might give me, but don't give yourself a bud break so early in your life. just because love faila some of us, it doesn't mean there's nothing to it.

"He's a dear boy," Phillipa said dreamily.

"If I were to advise you without consideration for myself, I'd tell you that you've made a great mis- | take," Alan averred.

Phillipa looked at him with in- nocent wonder. "But Alan." stej differed. "How could I say yes to him when I'm in love with you?"
