ment, further gayeties.
A green-painted motor car glided
silently up to the entrance OF a
gaily-lit restaurant, and came to
throbbing standstill at the curb
A uniformed commissionaire hur.
ried forward and flung open the
door, tall man in evening dress
stepped out on to the path.
The shabby hat lodged the COM
missionaire, and shaved past the
tall man. He was a young man
with eyes that twinkled behind an
absurd eyeglass; with a sudden
impulse he put out his foot, and
.thump! the career of the hat was
ended forever!
Just then the girl hurried up, her
fair hair, rufled by the wind,
blowing untidily about her face.
The tall man removed his patent
shod foot, stopped, and picked up
the object he had checked in its
headlong flight; he looked at it
ruefully as he held it in his hand.
Then he looked at the girl.
Tin afraid I haven't, done it
much good" he said with a comical
glance.
"Ow said the girl. She took the
battered shape from his hand and
tried to straighten it out-the COM
missionaire looked on with superci-
lious superiority.
The tall man saw the droop of
the girls lips-the look of blank
dismay that crossed her face, and
impulsively he thrust a hand into
his pocket.
Please allow. me to pay for my
stupidity; it was all my fault-if I
had not put my foot on it I am sure
some one else would have stopped
it quite safely-please allow me to"
she interrupted him with a gesture,
the color flaming into her checks.
Il am not beggar," she said.
For moment they hooked into
each others eyes-the man as red
now as she, for he had never met
with such rebuff in the whole of
his life. His eyes flashed angrily.
The girl laughed little con-
temptuous laugh, then she turned
and walked away. carrying the bat
tered hat in her hand, the wind blow
ing through the loose waves of her
hair. N.
The tall man stock looking after
her with an odd expression Of
chagrin on his face; once he made
a movement as if he would have
followed; then he shrugged his
shoulders, gave the commissionaire
half crown. and went on through
the wide door OF the restaurant.
The girl walked on down the street
with hot cheeks.
People stared at her curiously; two
oyerdressed women looked at her
and sneered. A man eyed her uncov-
cred masses Of hair with open ad-
miration; but she was unconscious of
her surroundings-she walked almost
mechanically. .~
Presently she came to large pic
ture shop; several people were gaz-
ing interestedly at the goods in the
window.
The girl stopped next to a young
couple, who arm-in-arm, were talk
ing in whispers about a gilt-framed
hung with purple velvet.
It was the picture Of a child:
baby boy sitting on the grassy
brow of cliff in the sunshine. his
blue eyes turned skywards, chubby
hands stretched upwards, and under
meath the picture were written two
lines
Where did you come from, baby
