"Of curse. having a baby in the

already been drawing on our princi-

She spoke vaguely enough. Con-
corning money-making. Alice was al
most as indefinite in her ideals as
her mother.
Mrs. Fairbanks began looking on
the more cheerful side Of the ques-
tion at once.
The extra work won't matter. my

Gong time since Alice had sung as she
worked or went about the city.
From the settlement house she
phoned to Mrs. Godfrey's and was
old she could reach her at the Mar
loves. So. hatless and coatless as
she always went about the town,
Alice trotted over TO the big artificial
stone house. As she came in sight
Of it she wondered vaguely why she
didn't admire the immense structure
with its plain shiny windows.
Mrs. Marlowe greeted her and
Alice told her what she wanted. Mrs.
Godfrey agreed to the idea at nee.
but Mrs. Marlowe said she could do
sothing without seeing her son since
Sic too had spoken of adopting this
ryaif.
''The police haven't found a trace
Of the parents" Mrs. Godfrey said,
satisfaction in her voice. while Mrs.
Marlowe had gone to telephone
Lawrence. Two people answering
your description in some way are
known to have taken a train at a
station seven miles down that back
road. But they were lost sight of at
Midtown. So much labor is shifting
about this state now!"

minutes, and the women explained TO

her," he said. But II you really
want the little waif as badly as all
shat, of course I won't ask for her.
I wish, though, you would let me

Perhaps I'll let you send her to

So 1t was arranged, and several
weeks afterwards, when all hope OF

instruction as to caring for a six
months old infant was bestowed up
on the foster-mother.
What shall you name her?" Mrs,
Marlowe asked one afternoon just
before Alice was to take the baby.
