equal positiveness that it was man"
Nonsense" broke in. ''Liddy had
her eyes shut-she always shuts them

gloom behind the lamps. What in the
world are you doing here?"

be composed. l don't think the answer
struck either of us as being ridiculous
at the time ooh, Halsey, where have
you been?"

now, and Warner was at the wheel

slippers, over Heaven knows what.
Jack Bailey was not there. l got in,
and we went slowly and painfully up
to the house.
We did not talk. What we had to
say was too important to commence
there. and. besides, it took all kinds
of coaxing from both men to get the
Dragon Fly up the last grade. Only
when we had closed the front door
and stood facing each other in the
hall, did Halsey say anything. He
slipped his strong young arm around
my shoulders and turned me SO
faced the light.
poor Aunt Ray!" he said gently
And nearly wept again. "I--I must
see, Gertrude, too: we will have q
ee-cornered talk"
And then Gertrude herself came
down the stairs. She had not been te
bed. evidently; she still wore the
white negligee she had worn earlier
in the evening, and she limped some
what. During her slow progress dowr
the stairs I had time to notice one
thing: Mr.. Jameson had said thu

had worn no shoe on her right foot
Gertrude's right ankle was the one sht
! had sprained!

Iou can never be quite sure where

it may give you coIic with diarrhoea

Rosie's story was true. But whsrt, had
Rosie carried her basket? And why
had the thief, IL he were thief, picked
up the broken china out OF the road
and left 1t, with his tooty?
1t was with my nearest approach to
a nervous collapse that heard the
familiar throbbing of an automobile
engine. AS it came closer recognized
the outline of the Dragon Fly, and
knew that Halsey had come back.
Strange enough it must have seemed
to HRlsey, too, to come across me IN
the middle of the night. with the
skirt of my gray silk gown over my
shoulders to keep off the dew, holding
a red and green basket under one arm
and black cat under the other. What
with relief and Joy, l began to cry,
right there, and very nearly wiped my
eyes on Beulah in the excitement.

Confidence justified.

When Sardou was young he lived
and worked IN an attic in the Latin
quarter Of Paris. 1t was III the days
before the water carriers were a thing
of the past, and it came about that
the poor young man owed GO francs to
the peasant from Auyergne who used
to carry up his daily supply of water.
"Aly coed fellow" Sardou said to
him one day u cannot pay you. and
] don't know when shall be able to
l don't want to abuse your goodness
any longer. so must ask you, ustil |
am in position to settle with you,
not TO bring any icore water. | will
fetch 1t myself"
But the Auvergnot would not hear
Of such a thing.
Monsieur" said he, Il have been
watching you for long time. When
! bring UP your water you are always
writing. When a young man of your
education works as you do one may
have entire confidence in him. He is
bound 10 arrive shall 90 on bring

1t was not long before the shrewd

ter and abilities was justified Figaro.
