At times I hsd such pains in the pit of my stomach I could hardly benr it. My buck hurt me constantly and it nea-rl-r killed me to bend over and straighten up.

"But it's certainly different with me now. for I cal ilcartlly and en- Jiy every mouthful. My digestion seems .o be IIEPIQC/l. and I have gained eight pounds in weight.

Sonia allow her ivilrm lmpulscs to let her say: '

"I slillll illwuys love you, Nod. I love what you are iloinll."

For a moment silo lay in his arms. But there wins no 9885K"! in the embrace. it was the giving lip of self for lane's country. An almost holy renunciation of what one holds most dear in the world

for the sake of that something so '

big it holds all real men and wo- men in its grasp-qiatriotism.

When the door closed a sudden sense of desolation. of intolerable loneliness, l-alne upon Sonia. Til combat it she set about making ii list of tho things Ned would need, those slic could procure for him.

in tllc stress of this that ‘had come upon tlieni. this llig thing, all the mother in her hail again aris- en. ilo was her boy. as wcll as the man silo loveii.

(lliapter XXXV.

Strungcly- enough both Sonia and Noll wcrc perhaps glad when tho time of training was ilvcr, when tlic 2tI‘lIl_\' trllnspoit started over- sells. Lille was suddenly simplified for them both. In those last weeks tlicy had both at times been con- fused by their longings. -Now'lit was over. There hnd been much for her to do, much for them both tn endure. They ‘were each "alone now with their iiuty,—hers to her country and to his husband. I-Ils

to his country alone.

The parting hail been sliorl, a few moments alone. then he was gone. There had been no promi- ses given, no, mention of the fu- ture. lIt hnd been u sacred moili- ent, too sacred for thoughts of self. In those lost days they had discus- sed the possibility of Ned's bong wounded, even killed. Only then dill Sonia cxuct it promise. Sllc said " _

"You will manage so if anything

happens l shall know?"

"Yes'

“This going to war is o splendid thing for you, Nell. I wish I

might go, l0U-——(l0 something worth ivlliie for the "world. But we wc~ mun are rather out of it now."

“-.\Io~you will find you arc neod- oil, too. Perhaps not ovcrsellmbut horn iii. illlilic. Why, Sonia." lic lricil to speak lighiiy. “if zlll lilo boys cllrrioll ilwii_v a. kit llkn mini: don't you suppose it would help? l don't believe there is u. single thing a soldier thing l]. soldier could posibly want or use you have not given nie-— and no fool things either just, sensble, practi- cal things. "

So they luilkcll. uvoilllng the thing that. was uppermost. in both their minds. Even at tlic last, when lic held licr just ll moment ili his ilrlils and gave hcr the final kiss, she suppressed all but the mother feeling. It was ilono with nlflfii- ordinary ilclicilcy, with the ex- quiste tenderness of iviiicli per- liilps only an occasional woman is capililile. Self forgotten ln the dc- slrc for anotliefs poircn cf mind. Which, after all, wits whzlt she had given Noll as u. parting gift.

As the ship sailed away Ned Campbell dreamed a dream of rc- turning to Sonia, more the mun he would like to be. lic knew hc held her heart in his possession, that slie had givcnhim nil hcr love. Not licr present lovc, but the love of her life.

Beverly ‘Strong, too iiuil fclt the change the war hsd brought. Also it liilll changed liini. Not that he hsd lost his cynicism, or that he had ceased to make sarcastic speeches to Souls, But they were botll so busy that his unkinllness was scarcely felt by her. Even had it been she would have overlooked it because of his devotion to the wnr work now engaging the atten- tion of the entire nation.

Souls hsd taken charge of s Red Cross chapter. and day after dsy she ialbored, making bandages, knitting. anything that she had thne to do that would ease the life of the boys overseas.

Letters came from Ned irregul- arly. letters any one might rend. yet always bringing comfort to So- nia. lNevor one came that Strong felled ti; sneer, but now he hsd a look of shnmefacedness accom- panying the sneer. It was as if "what Ned had dons psilisted, if it hsd not entirely excused their fond-

ness for tisch other.

lI-Ie always hsd believed the war intervened. That. hsd Ned not

gone sway, Sonia would have been unfaithful. I

Her room was almost newly at~ tractire. so little had she been at home. There Wilt! il fire burning in the gratewsses of flowers stood on the desk and on the table lbe- side her bed. A ten table hnd been wheeled to lier side snd tea and toast gave out their fragrance.

A certain strong sanity had kept her from brooding upon Ned's ab- sence. But lying there she thought of him, how she missed him. She was not now at least a self-consc- ious woman. But after she finish- ed her ten and the maid hsd taken the things away, she took a mir- ror froln under tlin pllow where slie had it hidden and studied her face,

“I must not let myself grow old" she said as she looked closely to see if there were any lines. “He will be bat-k soon and he must not see me old."
