"I'm glad you think so," he com- mented, drily, "I dont agree,,' "You are always so sure of everything!" snapped tbe girl, and she sat down on the hot sand, cons- cious her ankle hurt. She had been famed to leap from the 'plane as' it came to Its' enforced resting -place, and a few moments later it had burst into flamer, "I wise you wouldn't always be telling me that 1 am a perfect fool!" she added, and tears crept Into her eyes, would be nothing but Oh, well, perhaPe it was for the HOME IMPROVEMENT PLAIN . . reat and thirst, or we are eaten by lions, or some wandering Arabs may take us prisonere, i£ they don't kill us!''

It us an awesome place in which to be wrecked, and exl.eilene ed as he was, he saw their real peril and cussed what seemed to him the folly of a young woman who exposed herself to death— or worse —for a whims. And Leonle knew perfectly what was passing through his mind— knew he was thinking of her as a foolish, vain, heada+trong young wo- man who bad sot out on this orad flight with a view to notoriety—who wanted to be in the limelight,. A surge of rebellion rose U. her heart. She wanted to cry out that this flight had been taken against her wish , . that her hue band had insisted she should venture in this particular plane of his invention— the first of wary his strange brain had involved, For Powell Carr, once a flying acre, had lost his nerve owing to a crash and been ubliged to stay on solid earth Brooding, strange, self absorbed, he had devoted all his talents to the making of new engines, and i slated on his girl wife taking up the machines. The constant peril to which he eyposed her was othing to him, "It's' a good adv,stist- meat when a woman Hies machine," he had said 11 her again and again, But that was in secret, To tete world he rather suggested he was reluctant to let her take such risks, but she insisted. And Leonle did not contradict . did not emit to contradict for the most part, Chiefly a sense of loyalty to the husband she could not love held her silent, but also she was indifferent to the w'orld's opinion, Only now that Berle Masters cou- demned ber she longed to defend herself, she bit back the words, but it was hard. Yet Boric Masters was notaing to her, of course. How could be he—when she was Powell Carr's She rose to her feet and her hand wife, clutched his. arm, and her eyes And if she did not love Carr, at stared Into his set face, least he had swept her off her feet 'Iter. Masters—you—you really "I warned yon we were taking a big rick in flying without a moon to help us," said :fastens, Smoothly, and he looked down at ]ter utterly unloved it seemed by her dt3com- fort and pain. "Before we started I said that yon would do this damn fool's' trick once too often—and you have." about that What about the hop I made o Paris Is one caof petrol still iutaet, 1y - in the teeth of [hilt seventy mile lun' g right over there, I shall lite into gale.

Slue broke away and turning, flung herself down oe the sante, burying her head In her hands, She was' at the end of her tether. for elle had flown alt Cay and all the previous night, and the Crash had unnerved her. Also, site was' not really built to make a successful airwoman, as Berle Masters had said, She was too highly strung, tto headstrong and reckless, and she was here et her husband s wish - only she could not say so. But she was brave He did not deny that, and he stir veyed her shaking body with a strange look ate , his lean, brown' face, "Er—eleat't do that,' he said in more gentle ,tones. "You will want all your strength later 01.." She raised a woebegone dace at the •souald of his kinder .tone, and was surprised to see his usually stern face was gentle. Struggling eo a sitting pos'tur'e she sniffed very unromenticalty and searched for a handkerchief—un successfully. "Take this ole—it is clean, though poesitrly full Of grains of sand." Masters held out a white silk square to her ant she to elk tt without e word, .She raisedangry eyes to his. "Why shouldn't 1?" she asked. "Other women fly," I am not conceived with *hat other women do," he retorted, and something suddenly flared up into his face that startled her. Berk, Masters was an enigma to her, and else felt some fear of him mixed with her dislike—yet, as en airman he was all one could desire fearless --cool — experienced — resouceful. 'Then wiry worry about me?" she asked, daringly, Re fascinated her by his totter contempt for her and her most daring stunts only increased his dislike, it appeared. "I happen to be your companion on these crazy ad+veutturee," he re- turned. Ile thrust his hands into bis Jacket pockette and stared mend with narrowed eyes. "I have no admiration for a married woman who prefers the sky to her husband's home either!" he finished up, grimly. "You are impertinent!" she gasp- ed. The seriousness of her own plight was lost in the fact that this, man, who had been her husband's employee for nton'tl s, was daring to take her to task. "Yoe are horribly impertinent " "I ban afford to be," Masters re- joined, "A condemned man can have whet he like9 for breakfast on the morning lie Mese' And Leonie paled. The truth hit her at last -their lives hung on a thread, and many times as she had faced death it. the sky this was the first time the pros' meet had terrorised her, with the glamour of adventure, and fur a little while she bad idolised hint as a hero of romance, Then the awakening had coma, and petthaps site had been glad In a erose of the clangers into which be d thrust her, At least they made things ea.eier, But that' Masters infs.
