braith's elbow who answered.
"One thousand in fives, tens and
twenties, loose, If you please; the re-
mainder in the largest denominations,

The teller counted out the one thou
sand in small notes quickly; but he
had to leave the cage and go to the
vault for the huge remainder. This
was the crucial moment OF peril for

a glance at the face Of his prosecutor,

"You needn't open it," said the

"The banks count is good enough fol

had been unlatched and the money
passed out, he stuffed the loose bills
carelessly into his pocket, put thu

thousand dollars under his arm, nod

Then it was that Mr.. Andrew Gal
braith suddenly found speech, opening
his thin lips and pouring forth a tor

manner.

CHAPTER XIV.

What had happened was simply
this: The moment Tommy had entered
his fathers house Celestial had leaned
from the cab window and told the
driver to drive on. Why? Because
she thought she was trouble to him?
No. 1t was because when his arms
had been around her and he had
kissed her and she had kissed him
back, almost all thought of her heav-
emily mission to this earth had been
wiped from her mind, and she felt
against her return. They had trust
ed her. And she mustn't fail them.
The cab had stopped and the driver
was speaking to her through the win
dow.
''This will do" she said, and she got
out. "Thank you very much" and
then, her head bare, feet showing be-
low Tommy's raincoat, she started to
walk away.
Hold on, there" beloved the
driver, chow about my fare?"
"Oh," said Celestia, turning meekly.
The driver pointed to his meter.
sixteen dollars and forty-eight
CENTS" he said, with a tone of final
ity.
Celestial stood helpless and bewil-
dered.
'But I have no money" she said.
''You haven't, haven't you?"
The driver leaped threateningly from
his box, and a crowd began to gather.
Through this crowd strong, loud
voiced, well-dressed middle-aged wom-
an came pushing and struggling. She
caught Celestia by the arm and forced
her back toward the cab, the door of
which was still open.
'Ill take care of you, DEAR" she
said. 'In with you"
To the driver she gave an address
in a voice which none but him heard,
and moment later, amid jeers and
murmurs of pity, Celestia was once
more whirling through the streets of
New York.

see to it myself"
Once more Mrs. Baxter hurried
downstairs. Once more she found
Sweetzer and Freddie in the front
parlor.
'Ill send for her in an hour" said
Sweetzer; "see that's she's ready"
"You mean asleep?"
mean more. Put her into some
thing less audible than that fim-1am

"She's going to have glass of wa

and little dash of something else. l
guess she'll be all ready when YOU
send. It's early, though. How'll you
get her out of the house"
CAS- usual" said Sweetzer, Gin a
big trunk"
There's one thing more"
Eye met eye. And after a little
SWeetzer's eyes fell and he drew from
his inside pocket an enormous roll
of dirty bills of large denominations.
Ten bills of a hundred dollars each
passed very slowly and with much
thumb licking from him to Mrs. Bax-
ter.

But Barclay, notified by Sti1liter Of
Celestla's escape with Tommy, was
only too anxious to detain her until
she could once more be turned over
to the professors guardianship.
So when Tommy, looking very man
ly, told his father about Celestia, that
one said at once: Poor th1ng-poor
chlld-of course we must take her in,
take her in first and think afterward."
God bless you for a brick" cried
Tommy, and he dashed off.
In less than a minute he returned,
greatly agitated. She's gone," he
cried.
Visions of certain New York pit
falls flashed through Barclays mind.
Tommy" he said, "do what you can
to find her, and bring her here. I'll
look after the police end"

CHAPTER XVII.

Had Mrs. Baxter no conjunction
whatever? Yes. But she was only
doing as she had once been done by.
She had to live, or she felt that she
had to; and she had hardened her
heart to mercy and self-sacrifice. Still,
her hands shook as she carried the
orangeade and the sandwiches up to
Celestial, and her voice shook as she
said:
There, dearie, eat, drink and be
merry"
Celestial ate hungrily and drank
thirstily. And presently she said that
she felt sleepy and could hardly keep
her eyes open.
said Mrs. Baxter. you just curl up
on my sofa and take forty winks.''
Sleeping she looked more beautiful
than a maiden of this earth.
my God! My Cod" exclaimed
Mrs. Baxter, amt she beautiful? And
to think that she has to be food for
swine''
A strong emotion seized Mrs. Bax-
ter. 1t was fear, pity and remorse.
"No use crying over spilled milk"
she murmured. and now to change
her into a travelling Dress
She left the room hurriedly and
came back with all that was necessary
to change Celestia from a Greek god
dess to an American girl.
Suspended from Celestias neck by
a narrow ribbon, was the smallest,
Oldest, oldest little rag doll in the
world.
do not know what silent chords in
the wicked old woman's heart were
touched by the sight of that doll. I
only know that she gave a kind of a
howl of grief, and then she began to
say in kind of hurried sing-song:
"Must hurry-must hurry-must hur-
ry.''
She found the strength to half car
ry, half drag Celestia down the front
stairs and to half lift, half tumble her
into huge trunk that almost blocked
the front hall. Before she closed and
locked the trunk, she flung into it the
ten one hundred dollar bills. And
then she tried to compose herself
against Sweetzer's arrival.
He was punctual to the minute. Mrs.
Baxter opened the front door herself.
Beyond Sweetzer. drawn up at the
curb, she could see the express wagon
and the trusted porters that lie had
brought with him.
"Everything all right?' he whis-
pered.
Mrs. Baxter closed the door.
"Sweetzer," she said, she's gone"
When I went back with the orangeade
she was gone. She must have smelt
a rat, Sweetzer. She must have seen
your eyes in T1e peacock's tail. See,
had everything ready; here's the
trunk waiting for her.
Swectzer looked at the trunk. He
could think of nothing better to do.
