As the latter ac- tion had the effect of hiding her at regular intervals from her companion, his conversation in his anxiety to finish a sentence before she disappeared was be- coming of the snappy order and fast reducing itself to primitive monosyllables. Hers, on the contrary, had no relation to the vagaries of her parasol, but flowed and ebbed in one continuous complaint.

They would have such nice quiet, peaceful times together in the August days to come. “Just like this,” he ended, getting in behind the frills of her parasol. “Yes, won't it be lovely?” she said dreamily, letting the sand fall from her hand on his sleeve. In alittle while the sun blushed and dropped down behind the water's edge and they went back to the hotel. That night she confided to her dearest friend : tt NOBLE PASTIME INTERRUPTED. “Oh, I had the most beautiful time all day, squabbling with Walter.
