Her glance at the moment was softened by her love of him .But he hardly saw that, for his whole mind was occupied by thoughts of another kind of love He didn't know that she was reflecting on his likeness to his father, killed long years since in the hunting field-the samei slight arrogance. She thought, the same ease in his own strength.

“Nly dearest boy." she repeated] her question. “Arc you sure?"

‘Quite sure.“ .

Ah, but how impossible, illiought Kit, t0 make her or anyone under- stand this menaced feeling which he had in regard to his love’. Nor could he explain i1; to himself.
