The woman walked on a few PAGES
Then she looked over her shoulder. The
man was nowhere in sight. The angry
iush in her checks died away. Her pace
slackened. Again she looked over her
shoulder. Not a trace of him was 10 be
seen. She stopped.
She waited irresoiutely on the curbstone
for nearly forty seconds. Then she crossed
q the opposite sidewalk. She looked along
the street down which he had disappeared.
Not a. much as the tail of his coat 10 bs
seem She ran down the street few steps
aud called Gustav. Gustav - There
was no reply. But, unobserved by her, a
head, with covering OF tawny hair, was
peeping around doorway some distance
of.
She shrugged her shoulders angrily and
began 10 retrace her steps. But she only
went ten PAGES. She sank down on "A door
step and buried her face in her hands. She
was sobbing as il her heart would break.
rhe owner of the head with the tawny
hair stepped from the doorway. Putting
his hands i'm his pockets he walked up the
street with AN air Of supremest nonchal-
ance. He was nearly abreast of the weep
ing woman when she raised her tear
stained face. The flushed cheeks grew
yet redder as her eyes fell upon him. In
an instant she was on her feet Her arms
were around his neck She was weeping
ON his breast.
Gustav put her gently but firmly aside.
His attitude was one of naughty GOODNESS.
Let me go mein vay," he said. II am
tired Won your bad temper, und-"
But, Gustav, listen" interposed the
weeping Frida.
Il tell you no. Ven speak no more ven
We pass by"
As this terrible decision was pronounced
the woman fell into violent paroxysm OF
weeping. She was becoming hysterical.
Gustav's haughtiness aud frigidity OF
manner somewhat relaxed
perhaps ven you promise TO behafe
YOURSELF" he began, magnlnimously.
"Oh, yes, yes"

ia, dot is so. But now, let us go home
NV tongue is so dry as a piece leather

Leaning OF Gustav's arm, Frida passed
/ up the street her face radiant with smile,
shining through the recent tears.
