CHAPTER xxlll.-Continued.

Presently, as the dark gathered
their glow shut out the world. To
my relief the three women carried the
talk alone, leaving me to my own
thoughts Of Helen and my plans for
restoring her to her aunt with no
break in the new confidence that Rosa
yielded myself to this undercurreDt Of
reflection that l was startled to find
Miss Pat with the coffee service before

Larry, you are dreaming. How can
l remember whether you take sugar."
Sister Margaret's eyes were upon
me reproachfully for my inattention.
and my heart-beats quickened as eight
strokes of the chapel chime stole lin
geringly through the quiet air. l had
half-raised my cup when I was
startled by a question from Miss Pat
spoken, it seemed. utterly without in
tention.
Let me see your ring a moment.
Helen"
Sister Margaret flashed a glance
of inquiry at me. but Rosalind met the
situation instantly.
Certainly, Aunt Pat"-and she
slipped the ring from her finger.
passed il across the table, and folded
her hands quietly upon the white
cloth. She did not look at me, but |
saw her breath come and go quickly.
If the rings were not the same then
we were undone. This thought gripped
the three of US. and | heard my cup
beating a tattoo on the edge OF my
saucer in the tense silence. while Miss
Pat bent close TO the candle before her
and studied the ring. turning il over
slowly. Rosalind half opened her lips
to speak. but Sister Margaret's snowy
hand clasped the girls fingers. The
little circlet of gold with its beautiful
green. stone had been to me one OF the
convincing items of the remarkable re
semblance between the cousins; but
if there should be some difereniating
mark Miss Pat was not so stupid as to
overlook il.
Miss Pat put down the rins abruptly.
and looked at Rosalind and then
smiled quizzically at me.
you are a clever boy. Larry.
Then. turning TO Rosalind, Miss Pat
remarked. with the most casual air
imaginable:
Helen pronounces either with the

sense OF responsibility or care for the
comfort or safety of the occupants OF

way. He is temperamentaliy bad
citizen and potentially a murderer.
When he causes an accident by Eio-
lating speed laws and the laws OF
common sense and common courtesy
he deserves q long sentence In the
penitentiary. When juries mete out
the proper punishment the road hog
will become less conspicuous as a pub
