LAWRENCE SUGAR REFINING CO., LIMITED, NTREAL. CHAPTER II1.--(Cont'd) yo * At Nength the top of the moun- ain was reached, and a merry lit- tle picnic ensued. "Come!" said Sigrid to Cecil Boniface, "you and 1 must add a fatone to the cairn. Let us drag up this great-one and put it on the top éther in memory of our friend- They stood laughing and panting inder the shélter of the cairn when stone was deposited, the merry es of the rest of the party float- back to them. Do you not think we are dread- %ul chatterers, we Norwegians?' "said Sigrid. & '1 think you are delightful," 'aid Ceoil, simply. £1 'Bomething in her manner tonched and pleased Bigrid. She had Sgrown to like this quiet English girl. . _/Once more Frithiof and Blanche were left alone, : And you must really go on Mon- day?' asked Frithiof, with a sigh. "Well." she said, glancing up at him quickly, "I have been very troublesome to you, I'm sure; al- Well, Well! HT ~~ hd 66 ways needing help in climbing ! You will be glad to get rid of me though you would be too polite to tell me 80.' '"How can you say such things?" he exclaimed. = 'You 'knew---you must' know' what these days have been to me."' . "After all, I believe I should do better if I trusted to my alpen: stock I" And laughingly she began to spring down the rough descent, a little proud of her own grace and agility. -and a little glad to baffle and tease him for a féw minutes. "Take care! take care!" cried Frithiof, hurrying after her. Then, with a stifled cry, he - sprung for- ward, to rescue her, for the alpen: stock had slipped on a stohe, and she was rolling down the steep in- cline. How he managed it he never realized, but love seemed to lend him wings, and the next thing he knew was that he was kneeling on the grass only two or three feet from'sthe sheer cliff:like side with Blanéhe in his arms: "Are you hurt?' he questioned, breathlessly. "NG;*' she replied; . trembling with excitement. 'Not hurt at all, only shaken and startled." He lifted her a little further from the cdge. "How strong you are," she said, "and. how cleverly you caught me! | Yet now that it is over you look i quite "haggard and white. 1 am really not hurt at all. Tt punished me well for thinking I could get on without you. You see I couldn't!" Bhe sat up and took off her hat, smoothing back her disordered hair. 'If only 'I might = always serve you!" he 'eried. . 'Oh, Blanche, I love youl ¥love you! Will you not trust yourself to. me 1" All in' a moment. . she yas con- quered ; she could not even make a feint of resistance, but just put her hand in his. "1 will always trust you," she faltered. 4 Then, 'as she felt. his strong arm round her and his kisses on :her cheek, there flashed through her mind' a: déscription she had once read of-- i [ @ ta strong man from the North, Light-locked, with eyes of 'dangeér- ; % Nr » at oi A And then, with "| little 'group of liste : gave a fl secotmt of her n ~"*And you are really not [allt "Not too much shaken to dance to-night!" 7 "Not & bit," said Blanche; frily," 'And you promised to p "I your peasant costume and shi {| the spring dans, 'you kfiow.'" "So IT did. I must haste and dress, then,' 'and Sigrid ran npstairs,- appearing.

The father felt proud; tdo, of hisichildren, when, in. response to the general entreaty, Frithiof and Bigrid danced the spring dans together with its graceful evolutions and quaint'g tures. Then nothing would do but Frithiof must play to them on the violin, after which Blanche voltin- teered to teach every one Sir Roger de "Boverley, and old 'and young joined merrily in the country dance and so the evening passed on all too 'répidly to its close. It was a scene which somehow lived on: in Cecil's memory ; the merry dancers, the kindly landlord; Ole Kvikne sit- ting near the door and' watching them, the expression of sontent visible in Herr Falck's face aa he sat beside him, the pretty faces and picturesque attivé of Sigyid an Swanhild, the radiant' biauiy of Blanche Mergan, the = unclouded happiness of Frithiof? } The evening had done 'her good, its informality, its hearty, unaffect- ed happiness and merriment: made it, a strange contrast to» any other dance she could recollect; yet even here there was a slight shadow. She could not forget those words which she had overheard on board the steamer, could not get rid 'of the feeling that some trouble hung over the Falck family, and that hidden away, even in this Norwegian para-|face dise, there lirked somewhere the inevitable serpent.
