Take a young girl of about twenty
who, in her childhood, was pampered
of fortune in money, position, good
breeding, and pets, turn her loose
or the world at the age of ten
with no prop but a faithful, .sickly
and destitute old nurse, kill off the
nurse a couple of years later, let the
girl fend for herself as scullery-maid
and what not through the u%ninterest-
ing stage that precedes the sudden
bloom Of unexpected beauty, give her
q long succession of jobs secured o
her looks" and lost because she
wouldn't, lead her up to the crowded
portal of despair and the long-drawn-
out surrender then snatch her sudden

give her the sole freedom for a night

do? The answer Ia easy. She will

That was the very first thing that
Miss Jmogene Pamela Thornton did
after she had finished spying from the

she supposed was Mr. Randolph and
what, In reality, was Nj. Patrick

He choked himself into a gulping
inarticulate silence as he climbed
from the cab to look in the face the
sum total Of all human stupidity. No
sooner had he alighted than Miss Van
Teller found herself in voice again.
"Oh! OH" she moaned, pressing her
hands to her eyes, achingly open,

Sure, MISS" Said Mr.. Randolph
promptly, threw in his clutch and was
off,
Hi, you! D-n you! Hey! Youi
Driver! Confound your ID imper-
thence! Hey! How am / going to

was very plainly, the last very family
heard by Mr.. Randolph. After them
came down the wind something that
sounded very much like the ghost of
a wall Of despair, but the driver paid
no heed: His attention was absorbed
by something quite different; the dry
