He beat a hasty retreat, for he did
not care to be present at the finding
of the rain-coat.

fed dignity she emerged from the hall

CHAPTER VII.

Three days later Tyron Durham en-
tered the Office of Judge Blackwell by
appointment. After the business was
completed the Judge said with
smile. We'll, our mystery is solved.
The little girl is all safe She teIe-
phoned me just after you had left the
other day, and sent her maid after her
hat. 1t seems that while she stood
by the window, looking down into the
street, she saw an automobile contain
ing some of her friends. 1t stopped
at the next building. Being DESTROYS
of speaking with a girl friend who was
seated in the auto, she hurried out to
the elevator, hoping to catch them.
The elevator boy who took her down
stairs went off duty Immediately,
which accounts for our not finding any
trace of her, and he was kept at home
by illness the next morning The
young woman caught her friends, and
they insisted that she should get in
and ride to the station with one of
them who was leaving the city at
once. They loaned her veil and a
wrap, and promised to bring her right
back for her papers and other posses
sions, but the train was late, and
when they returned the building was
closed. The two men who called for
her were her brother and a friend of
his, it seems. l must say they were
not so attractive as she is. However,
the mystery is solved, and l got well
laughed at by my wife for my fears"
But the young man was puzZling
how this all could be if the hat be-
longed to the girl he knew-to Mary"
When he left the Judges Office, he
went to his club, determined to have
little quiet for thinking it over He
was annoyed when the ofice-boy ap-
peared to tell him there were some
packages awaiting him in the Office.
Bring them to me here, Henry"
The boy hustled away, and soon
came back, bearing two hat-boxes-
one of them in a crate-and the heavy
leather suitcase.
With a start of surprise, Durham
sat up in his comfortable chair.
Say, Henry, those things ought not
to come in here" He glanced anxious
ly about, and was relieved to find that
there was only one old gentleman in
the room, and that he was asleep.

We find that they are still oftener

'All right, sah.''
And say, Henry, suppose you re-
move that crate from the box. Then
it won't be so heavy to carry"
''All right, sab. I'll be than in jest
minute"
The young man hurried out to the
elevator, and he and Henry made a
quick ascent to a private room. He
gave the boy a round fee, and was left
in quiet to examine his property.
AS he fumbled the strings of the
first box his heart beat wildly, and he
felt the blood mounting to his face
Was he about to- solve the mystery
which had surrounded the girl in
whom his interest had now grown so
deep that he could scarcely get her
out of his mind for a few minutes at
a time?
But the box was empty, save for
some crumpled white tissue-paper. He
took up the cover in perplexity and
saw his own name written by him
self. Then he remembered. This was
the box he had sent down to the club
by the cabman, to get it out of his
way. Ee felt disappointed, and turned
quickly to the other box and cut the
| cord. This time he was rewarded by
seeing the great black hat, beautiful
| and unhurt in spite of its journey to
| Chicago. The day was saved. and
also the reputation of his mother 5
| maid. But was there no word from
| the beautiful stranger? He searched
| hurriedly through the wrappings,
| pulled out the hat quite unceremoni-
| ously, and turned the box upside down,
| but nothing else could be found.
| Then he went at the suitcase. Yes,
| there was the rain-coat. He took it
| out triumphantly, for now his mother
