.Only she felt the closeness of the clasp
around the slender'yielding form, and

and felt the warm breath on her cheek.
"My darling—Iny darling, at last! IS
not this a taste of happiness?"
"Heaven knows—yes!"
"And you have kept me another one,

"Ah, yes, ono 1"

"Coma into the garden," he said, put-

you; there will be other couples out
soon. Come; it is quite en regle to
stroll out and flirt with the most beau-
tiful woman In the rooms."
"Especially" said Christine, with a
half smile, as they passed. out, "for wick-

"Faith, if I did not In this case, dear-

straining her to his breast, his lips on
