At length, awed and not a little

stammered, wretchedly.
For what?" she demanded. quickly,
head up and eyes alight.
For insisting. 1t wasn't--ah-
courteous. I'm sorry"
1t was her turn now to wonder;
delicacy of perception such az this
was not ordinarily looked for In the
person Of burglar. With laugh and
a gibe she tried to pass off her aston
ishment.
"The thief apologies to the theft"

Briefly hesitant, with an impulslve
gesture she flung out generous hand.

Maitland was curiously moved by
the touch of the slim, cool fingers that
lay in his palm. Not unpleasantly. He
frowned in perplexity unable to ana
lyze the sensation.
You're not angry?" she asked.
'No-but-but-"
"Yes?"
why do you do this, little woman d?
Why do you stoop to this-this trade
of yo-of ours? Why sully your hands
and not only your hands-imperil
your good name. to say nothing of your
liberty"
She drew her hand away quickly, In
terrupting him with laugh that rang
true as a coin new from the mint, hon
est and genuine.
"And this" she cried, this from
Dan Anisty! Positively, sir, you are

She hesitated but a moment longer,

he bent forward. peering into her
face; though he schooled his own fea-

inoffensive studiousness, he feared the
loud humping of his heart wouM be-
tray him. AS he looked it became evil

dismayed by the intentness of his

In the clear light her eyes nhone
lustrous, pools of tawny flame; her
hair showed itself of a rich and
luminous coppery hue, spun to i'm
measurable fineness; a faint color
burned in her cheeks, but in contrast
her forehead was as snow-the pure,

heritage Of red-headed women the
world over, and their chiefest charm

AS for her lips, the most coherent
statement to be extracted from Mr..
Maitland is to the effect that they

very first.
The hauteur of her pose, the sym
pathy and laughter that lurked in her
mouth, the manifest breeding in the
delicate modelling of her nostrils, and
the firm. straight arch of her nose, the
astonishing allurement of her eyes,
combined with their spirited womanli-

abashed him. He found himself of a
sudden endowed with painful appre-
citation Of his own imperfections, the
littleness of his ego, the inherent
coarseness of his masculine fiber, the
poor futility of his ways, contrasted
with her projections. He felt as If re
buked for some unwarrantable pre-
sumption. For he had looked
into eyes that were windows of soul
and the soul was that of child, un
sullied and immaculate.
You may smile; but as for Maitland
he deemed 1t no laughing matter. From
that moment his perception was clear
that, whatever she might claim to be
however damning the circumstances
in which she appeared to him, there
was no evil in her.
But what he did not know, and die
not even guess, was that, from the
same instant, his being was In bond

She drew back imperceptibly,
