Jon stopped the car quickly and put his arms about her and held her trembling body close to flim, soothing her, talking to her ite one would talk to a child. "Don't, Gillian, don't! I'm a stupid idiot! Ill have nothing to do with the book or with Killigrew, Gillian, look at me! You're carrying too Much in your heart," he said earn- estly. "Too much of a burden.

There's something dark, something wrong about all this, I'd like to know what it is." Do You Love Him They drove on. "By the wa said Jon, "I told Killigrew to dr in to see me this weekend at lodge.

(Square, stubborn chin, strong mouth, blunt nose. A fighter's face,' Strength in his wide shoulders, in the great hands that held the wheel. Life with him would be good—.a sheltered, easy, colorful life. He had a great house in Westmount, the grand place at Lac St. Cloud, where they were going. She closed her heart to the voice of Anselm saying, "Do you love him?" Love was a cheat and a delusion, She would have no more of love that made one move in a world of dreams, a realm that had no reality beyond the lover and the loved, Jon Hillyer loved her. Jon didn't care what anyone thought of her, and Jon was a man, Perhaps, she mused cynically, he will refuse to take any help from Jon when he finds out that I am to be Jon's wife. But I wonder! What would he think if he knew Jon had ask- ed me whether or not he should put his money into this venture? Oh, I suppose he'd say it was only a gesture on my part—my telling Jon to back the publication of Jaf- fry Clay's work. Only a gesture of perhaps something of atone- ment, Trying to throw a sop to my soul for what I diel—what I did— So Much Beauty It was dusk when Jon and Gil- len drove through the village of St. Cloud, high in the Laurentian Hills. The lodge was on the shore f a lal.e, a mile beyond the little own that clustered around the igh white steeple of the church. In a field on the outskirts of St,- loud, men were at work building ooths and erecting tents. "They're having a fair on Mon- '; ay. They hold one every year, on told her. "Pretty good horse how, too; and excellent live stock shibits, We'll take it in. I' love irs, don't you, Gillian?" "Pink lemonade and popcorn, ticity fingers and dust in your rs—I should say so, I'd love it, on," They drove through the pine oods to the lodge.

Gillian knew hem. all, Bveryone knew she but only to say the word and she would be Jon's wife. She looked in vain for Simon Killigrew. She felt relieved that he had not yet come, She spoke briefly to the other . guests and went up to her Ix/mu.The fawn -colored tweed suit she Thad worn was discarded far a dress of pale green, that revealed the slenddr beauty of her long -limbed body, that was a foil far the golden halo of her hair and the deep blue of her eyes. Jon was at her door when she opened it, his hand poised to knock, He stepped back, studied her with a smile adoring and pos- sessive. He shook his head slowly and there was a reverent look in his eyes, a humble look, "So much of beauty,' he said, "I think each time I see you, she can never look any lovelier."
