Of extending the concert season at Lake

Mary had been talking with him for about five
minutes, when to her great surprise she found her
self telling him all about the handsome young man
who was in such trouble, and about the clothes she
had bought for him, and about her mother back in
Oak Center, Illinois, and-she could thinl,
about this without flushing miserably-al about
Tom, and how Tom wanted her to give up the
Broader Life and come home and help him plan
the house he wanted to build.

The next night the in the street was so late
that Mary thought he wasn't coming at all. But

wondered how he appeared when one could see his

whom the chief sent brought her to terms, and
he took Mary to a house whose address the chief
had given him.
There was a clean little hall bedroom at the
place where the chiefs left her; and there
was d clean bathroom next to it. and the
sun shOne straight into the room instead OF
s1anting in under the roof and trying to peer in
furtively, as it had done in the garnet down on
Broadway
The first thing Mary did when she was settled
in her new room was to sit down and write letter
to Tom. Though it a long letter, there was not
one word in it about the young man who had been
in such trouble or ABOUT the chief who had fright
ened her So or about any part of her life in New
York 1t was all about the people at home IN

morning and she went from agency to agency,

was to launch her fairly and squarely into the
Broader Life"
The fat little man in agency didn't
remember her at all, though Mary remembered
distinctly the five dollars she had paid him
booking-fee.
The thin man with beetle brows in another agency
never seemed to have heard of her or of what she
wanted to do though she had explained it all TO
him carefully at least twice before; and the big

one person she knew. That

of the Idle Hour Com

who stopped and told her
two stories, which he said

laughed so heartily at the
stories That the KIND little

willingly said yes.
She liked him we'll

came to see her. but the
second time he talked so
loud and laughed SO hard
at nothing that she did
not know what to make

he came he seemed to have
some strange difficulty in
finding the door to the
little reception-room, and
the servant who let

that Mary told the

"Oh, no." said Mary, as
if it was an ordinary thing
for her to go on shopping
expeditions for utter
strangers, and as if hats
and coats were upon her
regular buying list.
When she went out in
the morning she saw that
the room next door was
quiet and that the door
was shut tight. When
she brought in the hat
and coat, she slipped into
her room like a thief, and
almost tainted when the
landlady called her to
give her a letter from Tom,
which had come while she
was out.
AS soon as she was sure
she was alone, she reached
out and lightly tapped
on the window-si1l of the
man in the next room.
