~ HERE'S no questioning the fact that two weeks of Radville
 had driven Duncan to desper- ation. On the morning of the fifteenth day he wakened iu his room at Miss Carpenters and lay for a time abed staring yacantly at the gaudily papered ceiling, not through laziness remaining on his back, but through sheer inertia.
 Why" he reflected aloud, "it does not seem reasonable but I'm actually looking forward to the deirious dissi- patton of church next Sunday Meg
 "If Kellogg could only see me now, must have done something to deserve this in my missnent life.

 Suddenly ne rose and dressed He was late at tine breakfast and silent and reserved throughout that meal. Poor Miss Carpenter thought him dissatisfied and hung round his chair, purring with solicitude that almost maddened him. As soon as pos sible he made his escape from the house.
 The walk he indulged in that morn. ins took him in wide eircle-south on the road to the Gap. then east

Through them the interior glimmered darkly. In the foreground stood a broken bottle, shaped like a mortuary urn and half full of pink liquid. Be side it reposed a broken packing box in which bleary camphor balls nestled between torn sheets of faded blue pa per. Of these a silent companion in misery stood on the far side of the window. a towering pagoda-like cage Of wire in which (trapped, doubtless by means of some mysterious bait known only to alchemists) three worn but brutal looking sponges were appar. entity slumbering in exhaustion.
