Nell swung out of the cottage. Nadia
sat on, thinking.
How difficult everything was. From
Nell she had learned of .Iarroman $ visit
to Gloucester House. She had always
imagined that the moment news of his
return was brought to her she would fly

him for his kindness, avert his hos
tility from Lady Gloucester. and go
away with Wilfred. leaving Nell in un-

alone in Ncll's house. Mr.. Jarroman
had come too late to save her from the
misery that had driven her here. She

Nadia and Wllfred Reunited
An hour later Henry Jarroman drop
ped into the armchair in his own study.
His body was tired, for the weakness
of his recent illness still clung TO him,
but his mind was clear as it had never
been before.
He glanced in the direction Of the
drawing room: for second it seemed
10 lin that he could see through the
in tervening walls, and il seemed to him
also that he was content with what he
saw.
They were both therc--Wilfred and
Nadia. It had not been easy to man
age. this meeting. For so long Nadia
had been reluctant to leave Nell's cot
tage. she must have her full week-shc
must stick to her Job now that she
had obtained it-shc dreaded fresh
pretense, of wealth. of whatever nature.
One by one Jarroman had disposed ot
her difficulties. She had. in her own
right. thirty thousand pounds, which
would be refunded to her whatever she
might say: she would be choosing Al

far more important work of helping
her husbands career if she stuck to her
factory she had declared herself happy
in having father again, and there
fore she could not refuse to accept his
until the currents of her
life fowel steadily again.
While she had written farewell note
to Nell. Jarroman had gone out. Oh

to telephone Stranack to await them

And now they were in the drawing

her. Good luck TO Wifred!

KANSAS STREAMS RECEDE
Several Feet of Water in Main Streets
of Burlington.

Wichita, Kan, April 10.-Heavy
rains, which neared the intensity of
a cloudburst at points along streams
late last week transformed many
southern Kansas creeks and rivers in
to torrents many times their natural
size. threatened life and damaged
property extensively. It appeared
this morning, however, that the high
est stage had been reached in most
of the streams.
The town of Burlington, bravely
struggling to revive from the effects
OF its disastrous flood several weeks
ago. felt the effects of inundation
again late Saturday when several feet
of water swept down thru the main
business section, causing much dam
age.
The Little Arkansas river went wild
and altho it was receding today, has
caused dozens of families to leave
their homes in the north part of the
city, The drainage canal likewise
overflowed in the industrial part of
North Wichita The Big Arkansas
here today was near its height of
last summer after the Colorado del
ugeS.
Lowlands along the Walnut river in
Butler county were inundated, and
flood waters crept close to the bust
ness section of Augusta. Many homes
and factories there have been aban-
dOned.
