"I don't Just know how to explain
It," said Margaret West*"
She turned her eyes from the cool,
blue stretches of the lake and looked
thoughtfully at Graham, who, perched
on the rail of tho bout house, was ab
sently pulling at the Augers of the
gauutlets lu his hands.
The young man stiffened, and a slow
smile. In which there was a hint of
grliuness, curved the corners of his
uiouth.
"I rather think I understand," he
said quietly. "You are disappointed in
me. Isn't that It?"
She was silent for a moment
"Yes, that Is It," she said at length,
and at something lu her voice his face
hardened.
"Then you wauted me to enter that
coad race Thursday?" ho asked.
"Yes," she safd simply.
"And because I won't"?
She turned to him quickly.
"It Isn't that I'm tremendously In
terested Id that race," she Interrupted
him, "nor that I care a snap whether
or not you win It. The point Is? the
point Is"?
She paused: her brows drew together
in a little frown; her Angers toyed
nervously with a bit of wisteria she
had brokeu from the vine that cov
ered the porch.
"I wanted you to be in It? to go over
the course. That would bo sufficient,"
she finished.
"I see," he said. "You wanted me to
disprove these stories that are going
the rouuds about my lack of nerve. Is
thut it?"
"Yes," she said again.
He drew himself up. His shoulders
were squared. His attitude was that
of a man summoning to his aid all his
moral courage.
"The stories they have told you are
quite correct," he said, somewhat
huskily?
"Oh!" she said, and In her volco
there was something of pain and some
thing. too, of weariness, as if she bad
been expectlns this very thing and
yet was unwilling, even in her pre
paredness, to hejjr it.
"They are perfectly right in what
they say of me," he went on calmly.
"I have lost my nerve. There's noth
ing would tempt mo to take up road
racing again."
"Nothing?" she questioned.
"Nothing," he related Inexorably.
"I am uot lu the habit of offering an
explanation nor any excuses for my
position lu the matter. But 1 would
like you to know the circumstances.
Would you care to listen to them?'
"If you choose 'to tell me," she said
dully.
"You remember that race tnree y?ara
ago over the Meadow Island course?"
said he. "Well, It was then It hap
Iiened. Stanley was with me. He and
I h.-ul a g<5od lead. We were tearing
past the curve at the old church, let
ting out the car for all there was In
her. Aj we swung that turn I saw a
child Just la front of us not twenty
feet away, It Beerned.
"How she got past the ropes that
held the crowd back I can't say, but
there she was right lu the course and
not a ghost of a show apparently of
escaping us. I don't know to this day
what saved her. 1 only know there
was a great gasping sigh from Stanley
and a groan from the crowd. I tried to
swing out for her, but there was so
little time. Anyway, It wa* some sort
of a special Providence that saved her.
We shot past her, so close that I shut
my eyes."
The girl saw a nervous tremor shake
the big shoulders. Her eyes narrowed.
"But the child wasn't hurt, you say?"
she asked. I
"Not In the least. But those few sec- i
onds were enough for me. I couldn't I
stand them again. That Is why I am I
out of the game? a quitter. If you '
choose to put it that way."
The girl said uothiug. She sat look
ing out at the sparkling lake with trou
bled eyes.
At length Graham arose.
"I don't blame you In the least for
thinking of me as you do," said he,
"nor for being disappointed. Goodby."
He slid from the rail and went down
the steps to the big road car standing
In the driveway, no had pulled on his
gauntlets and was just climbing Into
the car when around the corner of the
boathouse came a, wild eyed, dishev
eled gardener from one of the houses
down the street.
'".Mr. Craham, sir," he panted, "will
you be gettin' the doctor, quick! Tim
Coinley's fell from the stagln' on the
b tables where they're palntln' an' he's
hurted bad, sir. 'Tis dead he'll be In
ten minutes If the doctor's not fetched
before that. Hurry! For God's sake,
hurry!"
"I'll have him here In tive," Graham
called, and opened up the big car.
It sprang forward like a thing alive
and went tearing dowu the driveway
lu a great cloud of dust
Margaret, who had run to the edge
of the veranda, saw him swing Into
the roadway beyond, and tho drifting
dust which rose high above the poplars
told of the terrific pace he was setting.
It was four minutes later, after a
nervous pacing of the veranda, that
she heard the whir of the approaching
car again. She ran down the steps
and hurried along the drive to the
roadway. Ep the hill, with honking
horn, came a dull, black streak. She
could Graham bending low oyw
the Hleeriug wheel anil tho doctor, bat
iks and begrimed with (lust, clinging
desperately to the seat beside him.
Then out of the crossroad Jvliit below
where alio stood and directly In the
path of the coming cyclone came a
rattling farm wagon, driven by old
Mr?. Clark, who was as deaf as a post.
The girl covered her eyu? and scream
ed. There were a wild yell, the sound
of splintered wood and a terrific grind
ing crash.
When Margaret looked again the
wagon alone was In the road. The au
tomobile, turned on Its side, lay against
the shattered fence. In the field beyond
lay two huddled figures.
In a moment the girl was running In
that direction with all the speed she
could summon. As she reached the
scene of the accident one of the two
figures scrambled limply to hl8 feet
The other painfully propped Itself
upon an elbow. Then she saw that the
man -who stood erect was the doctor.
Even as she came running Into the
field she heard Graham's voice, rather
faint, It Is true, but perfectly calm.
"How badly are you hurt, doc?" It
Inquired.
"Only a bit," was the response, "a
few bruises and n scratch or two."
" "Then get up to the Copley place as
fast as you can."
"But you?" the doctor demurred.
"I'm all right. Never mind me. I'll
be fresh as a lark when you get back.
Hurry on now."
Margaret ran to his side and, kneel
ing down, began to wipe the blood
from his face. Already the doctor was
making a hurried examination, while
Graham fumed and fretted and hade
him hurry (o Tim Conley.
"H'm!" said tho doctor at length.
?Pretty badly smashed up, but we're
lucky, both of us, to get out of It as
well as we did. Talk about your nerve!
By Jove, the way he swung that car
out of the way was magnificent. Never
a thought for himself nor me either,
I'm convinced," he ended.
He pulled a roll of bandages from bis
case and handed them td the girl. "Just
do up his head and stop the flow of
blood as best you can, if yon will, Miss
West," he commanded. "I'll go up to
Copley's and fix Tim up. Then I'll
come back here and set Graham's frac
tures."
He went limping up the road, and
the girl bent closer to Graham.
"It was splendid!" she cricd, her
eyes shining.
"That?" said Graham. "Oh. that was
nothing. I had to do that, you see. It
was a question of killing the old lady
or gettlug a bit banged up myself."
Her face was very cloeo to his.
Something warm and moist struck his
cheek.
"Thoso wicked stories they told
about you"? she began.
"They're true," he declared. "I have
lost my nerve. I couldn't go into a
' road race to snvc my life. This was
different, you see. Tb's was some
thing that had to be done."
Two warm Hps were pressed to bis
grimy, blood stained forehead.
"Had to be done!" she repeated
meaningly. "Oh, you delicious simple
ton!"
The doctor, limping back a few mo
ments later, discreetly screened him
self behind a tree.
"There are times It Is better to wait
before reducing fractures," he medi
tated. "?
