"VHE whistle shrilled loudly through
the night air, once, twice, and
again on long, sustained note.
- The boy waited, glancing first
toward one, then toward the other end
of the block. Presently he heard heavy
running steps, and made out the tall
form of hurrying patrolman.
He whistled again to guide the man,
and several people passing stopped and
stared curiously at him and at the house.
He hardly saw them. He felt as if he
were dreaming. Nothing seemed real.
He glanced down the street toward his
house, then at the house opposite it.
They seemed to him a thousand miles
away. Vaguely he recalled that some
time-years ago-he had started out to
go to dinner

room, it's trays out on chairs near by.
In the small room adjoining were three
closed trunks.
In silence the two men started for the
floor above.
Cup there's where saw the light
through the key-hole," whispered Dozy.
"Look, the doors open!"
And as they turned the bend in the
stairs they saw streak of light from
above. They stopped and listened, then
went up. And there, across the threshold
of the lighted room, lay a stout, elderly
woman-a servant, apparently, in neat
black dress and apron.
"Shes alive" Scarborough announced,

He rose and looked about the lighted
room. Here also was trunk in process
of being packed.
One other room on that floor showed
signs of occupancy. In closet hung a
night dress and kimono of blue silk,
and there were few toilet articles on the
dresser. But there was no trunk, only
small black leather bag, quite new. On
chair hung a maids white apron.
On the top floor the rooms were all
unoccupied.

of the four rooms were evidently not
used as sleeping quarters, the mattresses
being covered with dust sheets; and of
the larger rooms the front one seemed
to be occupied by some one on the eve of

After woman gets the vote and
becomes, perhaps, free of mans
rule, there remains another form
of liberty for her to acquire.
The ancient domination of
woman over woman has linn
tied her development quite as
much as the subsection Of
woman to man. The new
freedom to come will mean
the release Of the adult
daughter from the control Of
her mother.
Mothers grant to their sons the
capacity for growing to any
stature, physical or mental, which
nature permits. They respect a
sons personal right to his indi-
vidual existence.

gard their daughters other than
