Conversation went on somewhat con
strainedly. Mrs. McLane, intent OF
fascinating the colonel, had rather ig

So there was nothing for it but to cal

she hurried into the parlor, shrank
for a moment from the proffercd dis

staring into vacancy as she did SO, and
then suddenly, without a moan, without
a sound from her lips, went down in
limp heap upon the bearskin rug where
on she stood, and the ladies rushed to

Full half an hour they labored over
her. The messenger had dashed for
the doctor and brought him to the

The operator at the Junction said they
must have report of the receipt Of the

imperative. Grafton appealed TO the
doctor. The doctor said Mrs. McLane
