locating from a mammoth heating
stove in the center of the room. Miss
Rasdale found a seat In a deserted
corner and endured it for exactly five
minutes. Afterwards she consulted
her watch, and found that two full
hours must elapse before she could
set her train. She started UP impa-
tiently. and out into the fine white
drizzle, to walk away the time, and
incidentally, some of the surplus en-
ergy that was piling up on her nerves
with every passing second.
Somehow, the whole journey and
everything connected with 1t was in
tolcrable to her-had been so from the
beginning. And had it not been for
the faithful promise she had made to
act as maid-ofhonor at the wedding of
her best friend, Maize Howard-given
when they two were at school to-
gether. and renewed at each recurrent
visit between them-she never would
have consented to the immolation.
Out in the biting air. she quickened
her footsteps and walked rapidly for
several squares, till she could feel the
blood pulse warm and free in her
body. Something like exhilaration
came TO her then, and with the tonic
of Il racing through her veins, she
fastened on and on, totally unmindful
of the passage of time.
When Miss Rasdale came to herself,
she was standing at the end of a
street, in front of a small pavilion
looking out over the lake. She looked
again at her watch, noting with pallng
face that only Is minutes remained in
which TO get back TO the depot and
catch her train! A sudden panic seized
her; what should she do? She turned
to look about her for some means of
conveyance--car, cab. anything-when
her eyes fell on the strangely familiar
figure Of y-good-to-look-a young
man coming directly toward her, and
entirely unconscious OF her Identity.
