from overhead. "Never-until then!'

But tell me-
You must go!"
There was a shutting Of chairs on the
floor overhead, and Crailey went. He
went even more hastily than might
have been expected from the adaman-
tine attitude he had just previously as
sumed. Realizing this as he reached
he wet path, he risked stealing round
to her window.
"For your sake!' he breathed. and,
having thus forestalled any trining i'm
perfection which might arise In her rec
objection of his exit from the house, he
disappeared, kissing his hand to the
rain as he ran down the street.
Miss Betty locked her door and pulled
close the curtains of her window. A
numerous but careful sound of foot
steps came from the hall, went by her
door II out across the veranda. ST.
lently she waited until she heard her
father go alone to his room.
She took the candle and went in to
Mrs. Tanberry. She set the light upon
a table, pulled a chair close to the bed
side and placed her cool hand lightly
on the great lady's forehead.

Mrs. Tanberry gazed earnestly into
the girls face. After a long time she
said in a gentle voice:
"Child, has 1t come to matter that
much?"
"Yes," said Miss Betty.

"You did not come from that room?"
"No."

The draft through the hall was blow

the veranda had been left open for cool

them.

He was breathing quickly. He saw
his chance-if Jefferson Bareaud did
not come now.

"No."
"Ah!' A sigh too like a gasp burst
from Crailey. His head lifted a little.

eagerness that was almost anguish.
