He held himself rigidly until till she
had disappeared round the end of the

buried his face in his hands!
What the thing was that reused him
to his present surroundings he never

quite dark. It must be two Or three
hours since Jeanne had left the chair
beside him and announced that she
was going to take little walk.
He spoke her name, not loudly at
first, for he thought she must be close
by. But the infinite silent spaces
seemed to absorb the sound Of his
voice. There was no sign that any
sentient thing, except his very self,
had heard the words he uttered. Then
he called louder.
The steps were rather difficult to
negotiate, but by using both hands
to supplement his one good foot, he
succeeded in creeping down them, and
then in making his way along the cor

He knocked family at first; then
louder, and finally cried out her name

tried the door, found that it was not

on a light, perceived that the state

He heard footsteps crossing the

Then he limped slowly down the cor

was no time even for cry. He had

Need for Two Collars.

Having bought dog that he ad
mired Washington Heights man un-
dertook to buy dog collar The dog
had a neck nearly as big as his head
and the dealer advised the man to
buy two collars.
What for?" said the man. Hes
got only one neck, SO I guess he can
get along with only one collar. can't
he?"
Maybe So" said the dealer, SO the
man went away leading the dog by
his new collar and chain.
In less than a week he brought the
dog back.
I'm afraid can't keep him." he
said "He is too obstreperous. can't
keep him tied up. His neck Is the
biggest part of him and he is as strong
as an OK, therefore 1t is a sinch for
him to slip his collar Off"
That is why I wanted you to take
two collars" said the dealer. Put
both on and fasten the chain to the
back collar and he can tug away all
night without getting loose. He may
commit suicide. but he won't get
loose"
