Philip entered the first tenement at

AFTER THE BALL.

FEW nights later Philip kept
IA his promise to Jenny Moran
A and accompanied her to one OF
the numerous balls that form
so important factor of the social life
of the lower east side of New York in
winter.
AS they entered the hall about 200
couples were doing a slow twostep
with set and serious faces, most of the
ure and many of the young men hold
ing lighted cigars or cigarettes be-
tween two fingers. while the other two
clasped the lady's hand
One look at Philips face showed
Jenny that he did not care much for
this. and as she cared very little about
1t herself (what she wanted was to
get him alone, she suggested that they
go up into the gallery and look on. and.

of beer. why. that would be very nice
Philip ordered the beer, and they took

This was the home Of strong Italian

planned that her husband had tempo
rarily abandoned her. SO she had taken
two lady boarders.
The two lady boarders presently ap-
peared. one showing "A hand bulkily

been operated upon at the hospital
She unwrapped the cloth and exposed
a sickly. whitish mass with deep red
cuts where the knife had gone. The
hand looked dead and useless.
Philip whispered to Haggleton that
the doctor had told him the disease
would probably spread through the
girls body and ultimately kill her. It
was clearly life put In jeopardy by
a dangerous trade.
But Haggleton's curiosity was not
yet satisfied. He wanted to know
what was the matter with the other
lady boarder's face. And after some
questioning he discovered that she
