She rose suddenly, determined to
escape, If such were possible, from
her gloomy thoughts, and walked
toward the upper end Of the square,
directing her steps to the Spanish and
Italian section OF the city which is
called the Latin Quarter. She walked
slowly, not knowing where to go, only
determined that she would not go
home. She thought for a moment of
her sisters, where she could have din
ner and find the cheer of congenial So
ciety. But on consideration she felt
that this, too, was more than she
could just now bear. They would tor
ment her with questions and she felt
in no mood to put them of or to be
confidential. Finally she remem-
bered a Mexican restaurant, to visit
which had at one time been a fashion.

Josh, and once in a party with some
of the bank people. She knew where

her step gained decision, and she
moved forward briskly, leaving the
plaza and plunging into the congeries
of picturesque streets which harbor a
swarming foreign population. The
lights Of shops and open stalls fell out
into the fog, Transforming it into thick,
churning currents of smoky pallor.
Wet walls and sidewalks showed a
gold veneer, and lingering drops,
trembling on cornices, hung like tiny
globes of thin yellow glass.
People and things looked magnified
and sometimes horrible seen through
this mysterious, obscuring medium.
Once behind a pane of glass she saw
lines of detached, staring eyes, fas-
tened glaringly on her as she ad-
vance,. 1t was the display in an op-
tician's show-window, where glass eyes
were disposed in fanciful lines, like a
decoration. She looked at them ask
ance, feeling that there was something
sinister in their wide, unwinking scrut-
my. She hurried by the market stalls,
where the shawled figures of women
stood huddled round the butchers
block. They looked as if they might
be grouped round a point of interest,
bending to stare at something lying
there. something dreadful, like a
