THE HAWORTHS' BABY.
Cdtharine's visit, Which Lea to q
Strange adventure.

Miss Mobiles reached the station in
ample time With a deliberation which
pleased her she selected q seat in the
rear car OF the morning train on the
shady side. She was on her way to visit
Mamie Grant. her intimate friend and
former schoolmate. who lived in the me-
tropolis at the other end OF the State.
Miss Mobiles. however, was more self
reliant than self-eficient. hence she
had disdained an escort; hence. too. she
had ensconced herself on the wrong
train, that is. on the accommoda ton,

however Mr.. Bouche, the representative

delegates in front OF Mr.. Gerry's man

been removed because It was found that
II belonged to another building and had
been taken to Mr.. Gerry's by mistake.
Does that mean that you are going

"By no means" replied Mr.. Bouche.

While this conversation was taking

house by a rear door. which was then
locked from the outside by a watch
