she had hurriedly, almost in terror,
thrown a robe of ~reticence about an
impulsive n~aturalness not to be dis

storekeeper, he was evidently a fa-
miiiar acquaintance. He had known
her-he said after she was gone
since she was a little girl.
While he spoke. my eyes had acct
lentally fallen on the coin still in his
hand, with which she had lust paid
him.

he was lying.

We're not so dazed with that vision in

Without doubling the evidence of

to pursue my policy Of watching and

before l again went out wandering
