CHAPTER   I.
"Thert. Are Heroisms All Around Ua."
K.  UUXCJEUTO.V.  hex fiithor,
really was the most tiictles.s
persdn  u|ion  eiirtli--a tluli'.v.
unliUy curkoo of a man. pt r-
ood   niitiiriMl,   but   absolutely
centi'i'ed  upon   his  uwn  silly   self.    If
aiiVthiiig cDUhl  liMve driven  nie fmni
Gladys it would have lioeii the tliontjht
of such a father-in-law. j
For an hour or nioiu that evenliit; I listened   to   hi8   nionntnuous   clilrrui) I about bud money driving out good, tho j tolieu value of silver. lhe dcpreeiation of the rupee aud the true standards of exchaiitrc.
Hut Ul last 1 was alnne with Gladys, and Iho moment of Fato had cornel All that eveuins 1 had felt like the soldier who awaits the si;;iial which will send hlm ou a forlorn hope, hope of victory and fear of repulse alteruatini.; in I'Ls mind.
She sat witli that iirond. delhate pro¬ file of hers oullined aj;ainst the red curtain, llow beautiful she was! And yet how aloof! We had beeu frieuds, quite go<xl frieuds, but never eould I get beyond the same (.oiuradeship which I mifrlit have established with one of my feilow reporters upou the Ga zette—perfectly fraul£, perfectly khidly aud perfectly uusexual.
trladys was full of every womauly quality. Some judBed her to be cold and hard, but su.h a thought was trea- sou. That delli'ately bmnzed skiu. al most oriental in its coloring; that ra- i ven hair, the large liipii.l eyes, the full jbut ex.iuisite lips—all the stignnita of I passiou was them. Uut I wa.s saiUy conscious that up to now I had never fomid the secret ot drawing it forth. However, come what might. 1 shoul.l have done with suspense and bring matters to a liead tonight. She coiild but refuse me. and better be a re¬ pulsed lover than an accepted brother. So far my tlioughts had carried me, and 1 was about to brealt the long and uneasy sileme when two critical, dark eyes looked round at me, an.' the proud head was shaken In smlils repr.iof "I have a presentiment thA, vou are going to propose, Ned. I do \ ¦^h you wouldn't, for things are so nn^v nicer aa they are."
I drew my chair a Uttle Hv -"r "Now, how did you know that I V ¦. golnif to propose?" I asked In ^nulnt wonder.
"Iion't women alwiiys know? Oo you suppose any wonmn hi the world Was ever taken unawares? Hut—oh. Ned. our friendshlji has lieen so good and so pleasant! Wliat a pity to sp.iil It: Iion't yon feel how spleudld It Is that a young mau and a yoiing woman should be able to talk face to face a- we have talked!"
"I don't know. Glad's. You gee, 1 CHU talk face to face - with the station master." 1 can't Inia^-e how that ofll clal camp Into the matter, but in he trotted aud set U' ooth laughing "That does not sallsfj" nie In the least. I want my anus round you and your ' head on my brea>i', and oh, Glailys. I want"  ¦
She h:id sprung from her chair, as she saw signs that I proposed to dem oust rate some of my wants. "You've p[)olli'd everything. Ned," she snlil "It's all so beautiful and natural nntll tnls klud of thing crimes In! It l< ¦uell 11 pity! Wliy can't yon control j yourself?" I
"1 didn't invent It" 1 pleaded.    "Tfi ! Oiitiire.     Itfm lovn." |
yon   tf,ert love!" "One must wait till It come.s." "lint why rau't you love me. Gladys? Is II my aiipenran'c or what?"
She did imbeiid a little. She put for¬ wnrd a hand—sncb a gracious, stoop¬ ing attitude It wii-^ and she pressed back my hend. Tlnn she Inol.ed into my iiritnrneil face wiili a veiy wNtfiil smile.
".Vo,  it  Isn't that."  siie said  at  last. "You're not n eonceilnl buy liy nutiirc and so I can safely lell yon ilmt it Is not that.    It'^i decpcf." "My rlinni'ler'.'" Slie  nodded  .'-everely. "What ciiu  I dii to iiiciifl it dov.-ii  :iiid talk  It over.    No.  really, won't If you'll nnly sii down!"
Slio looked nt me \vi;li a wondering i df.«iiiist whlrh was riii'di more to my mill.] thfiii lier wli'il- lie,irti.d conll¬ dence. How primitive and bestial It looks wlien you pnt it down in Mack and while! And iierlia|i.s. after all. il 1.1 only a feeling [leculiar to myself. Anyhow .she sat down,
"Xow,   tell   me   what's   amiss   with me';"
"I'm   in  love   with   som(>body  else," said she.
It was my turn to jiimii ont of my chair.
"It's nobody  in  parlicular." slio ex plained, laugliiiig at Iho exiire'^.sion of my face;  "only an  ideal.     I've never met the kind of man 1 mean."
"Tell me nhout him.    What does he look like?" !     "Oh,  he might hxik very much  like I .vou."
I "How dear of you to s.ny that! Well, what is it that he does that I don't dn? [ .lust say the word—teetotal, Tegetarian. j aeronaut, theosophlst, superman, ni : havo a try at It, Gladys, If you will \ only give me an idi>n what would I please you."
;    Sh(> laughed at the elasticity of my ; character.    'Well. In the first place. I [don't think rny Ideal would speak like that." said she.    "He would be a hard¬ er, sterner man, not so ready to adapt himself to a  silly  girl's  whim.    I'.ut. above ail. he must be a man who could do,   who   could   act,   who  could   look death In the face and h.ave no fear of him, u man of great deeds and strnnge experiences.    If Is never a man that I should iove, but always the glories he had won.  for tlie}' would be reflected upon me.    Think of Iti.Miard  Burton! Whan 1 read his wife's life of him  I could  so   understand   her  tove.     And Ijidy Stanley!    Did you ever reiul the wonderful  last  chapter of that  book j about   hor   husband?     These   are  the | sort of men that a woman could wor- I ship witli all her soul and yet be the : greater, not the less, on account of her I love, honored by all the world as the ! Inspirer of noblo dwds." j
She looked so beautiful In her enthu   i slasm that I nearly brought down the whole level of the interview.    I  gri|) ped mysolf hard and went on with the argument.
"We cnn't all be Stanl«ys and Bur¬ tons," said I.    "Besides, we don't get
' wa liens tliese tlioughtfi !u you:' !     "And if I do"—
i Her dear hand rested like warm vel- I vet UIIOII my liris. "Xot another word, sir! Von should bave been at Ihe office for evening duty half an hour agi>— only I liadnf the heart to remind you. Some day. perhaps, wlien you have won your iilaie in the worhl. we shall talk it over again. "
And so it w,i ^ that  1   found myself that   foggy   Xov(.ijii,(.|. (.Veiling  |iiir-n- Ing   Ihe   ramberwell   tram   with   my j heart glowing wiUiin me and with the I eager  determination   that   not  anotlier I day .should elaiisf before [ shoulil (iud I some lieed  which  was  w.ii-tliy of iii.\ I Indy.

j     "Well, -Mr.  Malone. from all I henr. j you seem to be doing very well." said i he in his kindly Scotch accent. !     I thanked him.
i     "The   colliery   explosion   was   excel¬ lent    So was the Southwark flre.   You have the true descrceptive touch.   What did you want to see me about?" "To ask a favor."
He looked alarmed, and his eyes shunne<l mine. "Tut, tut: What is it?"
"Do you think, sir, that you could possibly send me on some mission for the jiaper? I would do my best to put It through and get you some good copy."
"What Sort of meeslon had yon in your mind. Mr. Malone?"
"Well. sir. anything that had adven¬ ture and danger lu it. I really would do my very best The more difficult It was the better It would suit me."
"You seem very anxious to lose your Ufe." "To Justify my life, sir." Mc.Vrdle was plunged in thought lor some minutes.
"I wonder whether you could get on friendly—or at least on talking—terms with a modeni Munchausen." he said I at lust.   "You seem to have a sort of genius for establishing relations  with people—s.vnipathy. I suppose, or animal magnetism,   or   youtliful   vitality,   or something.   I am conscious of It my¬ self." "Von ure very good, sir." I     "So   why  should  you  not  try  your luck with i'rofessor Challenuer of i;n- more Park?" I dare say 1 looked a little startled. "Challenger:"    I    cried.    "Professor Challencer.     tlie     fnmous     zoologist! Wasn't he the man who broke the skull of Bluudeli of the Telegraph?" The news editor sniiled grimly. "Do   you   mind?    iiidn't   you  say  it was adventures you were after?"
"It is all In the way of business sir," I answered.
"One moment, sir," I adde<l.   "I am not very clear yet why I am to Inter¬ view   this   gentleman?    What   l>a<   h" done?" The face llaslie<l ba.k apain.

"You say he is a faddist. What i^ his particular fad?"
"He lias a thousand, but the latest is something tibout Weissmaun aud evo¬ lution. He had a fearful row about It in Vienna. I be!l<'ve."
Half an hour later i was seated in the newspaper ollice, with a huge tome in front of me. which had been oj>ened at the article "Weissmaun versus Tinr- win." with the subheiidiiig: ¦¦Spirited Protest at Vienna.
