That was what she had heard
Helen few out to the kitchen, ex-
pccting to see it in flames, but there
was only a dense smoke and a
sitting smell OF gas. She flung up
the window, turned off the still es-
Gaping gas, and ran back to Emma.
Her hairs all scorched, ma'am,
whimpered the Gordon's maid.
Scorched! Helen had thought she
was only frightened. Drawing her
to the light. she saw that her hair
was badly singed.

"Oh, dear, that isn't necessary.
Emma has it all ready; we can serve

as the bell rang.
"You stay here with her-I'll &c"
and Warren strobe to the door.
Mrs. Stevens in any emergency
was always most capable, and now
she came hurrying out, anxious to
help.
"What'rc you using-cold cream
think olive oils much better"
Helen brought the oil, and Mrs.
Stevens. ripping off her long. white
gloves. rubbed it gently over Emma's
soot-smcarcd face.
Because of her aversion for the
girl. and the feeling that she was
not ovcr-clcan, Helen had shrunk
from touching her And now with
a tinge OF conjunction she watched

for a scene.

With an effort Helen let this one
pass, told her CURLY about the egg,
and went back to her room.
Sitting on the floor to put on her
