While the senator hesitated,
there was the sound Of light, fly.

marble corridor, followed by the
appearance of Elsie Downey in the
doorway.

not remembering for the moment
that he had seen her in the Man

Mallon. "Senator, permit me to

Mallon, realizing the uselessness
Of delaying the encounter, swung
open the door and motioned him
to go before. The door shut be-

poised in the other doorway, her

CHAPTER Xxx.

" more than five minutes when,
above the roar of the crowd at the
!, capitol, she heard the noise of
shutting feet in the corridor out
side. There was in the sound of
the footsteps something peculiar,
as if an afflicted man dragged his
feet or staggered heavily under
some burden. She ran to the door
and looked down the corridor.
What she saw moved her to in
stant sympathy.
"Bring her herein herel' she
said urgently to the person out
side, and threw the door wide
open.
The shutting feet came nearer.
"Poor thing!" Miss Downey
Commented, awaiting the ap-
proach. "Ah, be gentle with her,
cant youf"
The man Simpson appeared in
the doorway. He practically car
ried Mary Leslie. He, had been
drinking heavily, and, as he
stepped into the room, his grasp
relaxed. His burden would have
slipped to the floor but for the as
~sistance of Elise, who sprang for
ward to help.
The Leslie woman barely could
summon the strength to. put one
foot before the other. She could
not support her own weight. The
.whiteness Of her face was CHASTITY.
There was in it no trace of color
except that Of her carmined lips
and the shadow Of the blue lids
over her closed eyes. Her arms
hung Imply at her sides, and now
and then q dry sob shook her pitt
fully. She wore eight blue coat
suit, the skirt Of which was edged
with fur, and the plume in her
light blue hat was absurdly large,
ItTwas'asi if she had tried to redeem
herself with CLOTHES. As. Elise
caught her, she groaned. II,
Staggering and. half falling
between Elise and Simpson, she
got as far as the big table against
the left wall OF the Office and sank
!. into a..chair, letting her head fall
weakly on her limp arms on the
table.
