down at his suit case, 80 that his
height might not attract the attention
OF the man who's recognition he
feared, and in a momen more they.

the streets. One glance backward
showed his p enemy stretching
his neck above the crowd. as If search

riediy toward the very doorway they
had just passed. Behind them shad-
owed the man in the SLOUGH hat, and
with a curious motion OF his hand sig

burgh crony, h skulked in the dark
ness outside. Instantly this man gave
another signal and out of the gloom
of the street a carriage drew up at the
curb before the door, the cabman look
ing eagerly for patronage.
Gordon put both suit cases in ono

as he could in his haste hurried her

refuge he sought. He placed her inside
and gave the order for East Liberty
station, drawing a long breath of relief
at being safely out of the station. He
did not see the shabby one who
mounte the box beside the driver and
gave his directions in cultural whis-
pers, nor the man with the SLOUGH hat
who watched from the doorway and
followed them to a familiar haunt on
the nearest car. He only felt how good,

thing that any cabman should drive at
such a rapid rate within the city limits.
but as Gordon was anxious to get away
from h station and the keen eyed
detective as fast as possible he thought
nothing of it at first. After a shouted,
word or two they ceased to try to talk:

Back at Milton an hour before, when
h shades of ISL were falling and a
slender moon hung timidly on the edge
Of the horizon, a horse drawing q
spring wagon ambled deliberately into
town n came to a reluctant halt be-
side the railroad station, having made
a wide detour through the larger part
of the county on the way to that me-
tropolis.
The sun had been hot. the road much
of it roughs, and the jolts Eel stones
and bumps had not added to the COM
fort Of the thick set man, already
bruised and weary from his travels.
Joe's conversation had no ceased. He
had given his guest a wide range Of
topics, d~iscours1nE learnedly on the
buckwheat crop and the blight that
might be expected to assail the cherry
trees. He pointed out certain portions
OF land infested with raitlesnakes. and
told b~loodcurdling stories Of expert
ences with stray bears and wildcats in
a maple grove through which they
passed till the passenger looked FUR
lively behind him n urged the driver
to hurry q little faster.
Joe, seeing his gullibility, only made
his stories OF country life the bigger,
for the thick set man. though bold as
q lion in his own city haunts. was a
coward In h unknown world Of the
country.
When the traveller looking at his
watch urged Joe to make haste and
asked how many miles further Milton
was, o managed It that he horse
should stumble on q particularly stony
bit Of road. Then getting down grave
" from the wagon he examined the
horses feet each In turn. shaking his
head sadly yer the left fore foot.

SYNOPSIS.

Mary Page actress, is accused of the murder of James Pollock and is defended by her lover, Philip Langdon. Pollock was intoxicated. At Mary's trial she ad- mits she had the revolver. Her maid testifies that Mary threatened Pollock with it previously, and Marys leading man duplicates Langdon. How Mary dis appeared from the scene of the crime is a mystery. Brandon tells of a strange hand print he saw on Mary's shoulder. Further evidence shows that horror of drink pro- duces temporary insanity in Mary. The defense is "repressed psychosis." Wit nesses described Mary's flight from her in toxicated father and her fathers suicide, Nurse Walton describes the Kidnapping of Mary by Pollock.

 Miss Page and her mother and MT LangdOn were just about to leave, ill order to take a train to New York when MT. Pollock drove up to the san atorium in his motor.

\ TOT since the famous trial that M sent the expression "brain
 storm" spinning down through
 the years, has the testimony of an alienist so greatly stirred an eX cited world as did the phrase Re pressed Psychosis," with which pr. Foster summed up the temporary in sanity of Mary Page.
 It spread through the court and the throngs in the corridor; it sped over the telephone wires to the waiting newspapers of the city. It even reached the zenith of publicity and became the inspiration of the cartoon ists, but all this was after that day when Dr. Foster, once more upon the witness-stand, told with technical brev ity of how prenatal influence, increas- ed by fear and suffering, reacted upon the delicate brain tissues under the strain of great shock.
 Much of what he said was entirely unintelligible to the excited audience. It was therefore with a little rustling sigh of relief that they heard Langdon abruptly change his line of question ing and say:
 "How long after the night at Dr. Cellars sanatorium did Miss Page re- main in your hospital?"
 Ut was nearly three weeks before she was able to go, and even then 1t was with some trepidation that I con- sented to her lea-ing"
 "Did you fear a return of-her-ill- ness?'
 "Yes. I knew that excitement or nervous strain of any sort would have

 "So we got away and went home ] jobless but happy. Of course when we told them at home Mrs. Page said Mary must give up her stage career, hut she was too spmly for that" She said no, that the mistake she'd made was in getting chorus job. and that if I was willing wc might try for some small road company and work our way up in the drama would have followed Mary any r}acc. so said l was on, and we even talked Mir. Langdon down before he left"
 That is all thank you. Miss Bar tom said Langdon with smile as she finished, and Amy, looking around hcwildcrcd, asked the judge confiden- tially:

 "Go ask my press agcat" she an- Swercd pcrtly; and he flushed.

 A burst of laughter swept the room. and the judges gavel came down sharply. though the corners of his mouth twitched as he said to Amy:

 Your Honor, don't mind answering questions. but I'm so used to being hollcrcd at in rehcarSals that the usual line of chatter just slips out"
 Again a gale of laughter swept the room. and the prosecutor. realizing lhat the pcrtneSs of the actress was n shield behind which he could not pcnc- tratc. and feeling that her testimony was after all unimportant. dismissed her with n shruw.
 At her glad. "Oh. can goY' the laughter broke out afresh; hut it died away when she ran straight to Mary's .idn. and before the hailiff or I.angdon ,oU'd stop her had leaned over and lg'nulsivcly kissed her cheek.
