"Cutey's' latest stunt was to emulate

strike when her parents took away all
OF her clothing-all but a "ntghtie"" a
kimona and a pair of blue tipped slip

away from home and Joining her
"Snooks." Miss "Cutey" has vainly
been trying to elude the guards set
over her since she was brought back
from Mobile.
In that garb, despite all her professed
love for "Snooks," she would scarcely
dare venture into the chill West Jersey
air. Or, If she hazarded the breezes,
she would scarcely face the eager eyes
of the Pemberton villagers in the neg
Iigee. And the villagers, take 1t from
a trained observer, wore new pathways
toward the general neighborhood OF the
Bradley house, and strained their eye
sights looking for something to happen.
Doors and Windows Guarded.
But the confiscation of the clothing
was not deemed sufficient. Mrs.
Potter. an aunt, mounted guard over
the front and back doors of the place,
and a detective watched the windows.
Under those circumstances "Cutey"
was Obliged to stay put"

While the flesh weakened the spirit

open the front door slightly and asked

Of the stairs and burst forth:
Mp, l don't want to talk to any
body! The detectives and the report
ers are all against Mr. Foster. and 1
won't talk with any one that's against
him. But you can put this In the
paper so that Joel may see It:
"'I love him and l always will, and
i know that II he doesn't come for
me today he will come tomorrow, and
IL he doesn't come tomorrow he will
come later. He is sure to come for mo

1t was said that whenever any one
approached the house the girl went TO
the head Of the stairs and listened,
hoping that it might be a messenger
from Foster. But she received no com
munication, except a personal in the

silent throughout the whole affair, had
said that under no circumstances
would she divorce Foster and let him
marry "Cutey," She is staying with
Fosters father, who is president OF the
International Correspondence School
and Is r~eputedly a millionaire. He is
said to approve OF her attitude.
