For one surprised moment Nance looked
at her sister; then. conquering her curios-

door.

tender light.

ALLY.
Almost Immediately a second cab ap-
peared and finding it at her disposal, Clio
dagh hailed it eagerly and gave the ad-
dress of the fiat.
AS the horse sped away in the direction
of her home she sat almost motionless, her
only gesture being TO lift her hands to her
eyes from time to time as if to shut out
some near and unpleasant vision. Life in
its crudest, its most repulsive aspect stared
at her out of the darkness. She sat crushed
by the establishment of the last hour.
And a new furtveness-born of the new
realization-assailed her when at last She
stepped from the cab at her own door.
With an instructive lessening of her natural
fearIessness she hurried through the vesti-
bule and passed straight TO the lift Gain
ing her own door she let herself IN by her
latch key and then paused, looking fear
fully and eagerly about in expectation of
some unwished- for sound: but everything
in the fiat was still and, crossing the nan,
she entered her own room. The electric
light had been switched on and the place
set in order and Simonetta sat at the
dressing table mending piece of lace

From previous knowledge of her moods
