You weren't looking," said her partner reproachfully, as, ho helped her to her feet. "Looking!" she cried, indignantly. "Why should I look." "Why, to steer, of course." he answered calmly. "I can't steer. I should have thought anyone could see that." Marjory tried to think of smiethinp crushing, but the other's audacity was too much for her. It seemed to deprive her of thought. She felt limp. "I thought it was a man's duty to

steer," was all that she was able to'

say, and although she emphasized her remark as unpleasantly as she could, it sounded ery ineffective. "So it js," rejoined her partner, "if he can. If he can't, self-preservation should make his partner do it for hint. However, as u can't steer either, let's and h ic some coffee or " Marjory turned on him indignantly. "I can't steer!" she exclaimed. "Howcan on say such a tlin. "Well." he answered, "it looked like it. but anyway it doesn't matter; let's K.o ;tnd kill a sandwich or something." Marjory made a desperate effort. "I shouldn't have thought you were pood at killing anything,'" she remarked, as she thought with point, hut the point didn't pierce.

"Then come and watch me murdera meringue," said the irrespressible j one. I There was nothing funny in th re- j mark." but the way he said it made Marjory laimh, and, after that, dignity ! vvas impossible. She allowed herself' to b "taken and fed," as her master- t

ful companion put it. and. when later she found herself sitting mit with him in a. "cosy corner" she discovered to her surprise that lie was really enjoying herself ory much. Her partner was apparently enjoying himself, too. "This is really cry nice," he said, playing with her tan. She was1 holding it at the time. She ha rule. 1 it to him. " es." she a-rccd, "it is rather rretty." He put it down with a bored air. "Not without the K'irl at the other end. "he objected. Marjory drew herself up. "Keally." she said, "can't you tink of anything better to do than to dirt with me." "No." he answered. "I can't. Can you?" "Yes." she replied severely. "I

None the worse for that. "of course, you ouht." she said earnestly; "You ousrht to be hqhtins your country's battles." "It's a ureat idea of yours," he replied, "but suppose I got killed? ' Not much fun in wakin up for that, is there?" "Surely she be can. " h. no," he interrupted," of course. I rhouldn't really mind x little thing like that. Still, it has to he considered. Then there are other things to be thought of. For instance, I ought to make a will, oughtn't I?" "I really don't know," said Marjory. "I suppose that just as you like." "oh. I should like to make a will," he said. "You see, I've always wanted to have tulips on my crave, and I don't suppose anyone would ever think of it if I didn't mention it." He paused as if expedinc her to say something, hut Marjory's conversational springs had quite dried up. A pause ensued, durinc which the younu; man appeared to be thinking deeply. "I say." he said, "do you think they have tulips in Germany?" Marjory pave a wriele of discomfort. "I don't know" she exclaimed, "and please don't he so so horribly creepy. You're not dead yet."

She saw a khaki ticure approaehinc. It was her partner for the next dance, and she welcomed him with a siuh of relief. Her companion rose to relinquish her. and i-hook her solemnly by the hand. "Good-b e," he said mournfully, "in case we never meet acain." He stalked out, with a nod to the newcomer. The latter turned to Marjory with a prin. "Funny cuss, isn't he?" he said. Marjory took his arm. and they walked towards the ballroom. "I don't know." she said: "I found him rather sad. What is his name?" 'Treseott." replied the other. "He's a topping, cood sort. Just cot, his captaincy; cazetted this morninc." "Captaincy?" she echoed. "Yes; he's back on leave, invalided home. That's whv he's in mufti." "Oh." she said faintly. "He pot the A.
