odor assailed his nostrils, thin swedish trickle As he coughed he awoke. With an oath he put his shoulder to the door marked 38. At the third heave the wretched hinges gave; from out the open doorway surged great pillows of that suffocating vapor. Muffling his head in his coat, Jim fought to window and flung it open. Gasp ing, he leaned out over the sill. The out side air brought him back to perception of things about him. His hand, fumbling along the wall touched switch. She lay just be- side him, her head barred the golden glory of her hair gleaming the sudden light. He stood full minute beside her; drinking in the beauty of the pallid face with it's closed eyes. Voices sounded in the corridor, Jim stepped into the next room, found the cock and closed it. The elevator boy and the red faced man had entered. The boy with one glance at the still figure, turned and fled, but the man walked to the bed and looked at her. A quiver shook his bulk; he raised himself erect and stared at Jim.
 "You," he wondered. "How did you find hero

 Queer" commented the other man. He said no more. The elevator boy, shrill- voised, was bringing in people, doctor, a voluble janitor. Jim Haloran took his part as an officer. The red-faced man issued sharp, imperative orders. It was after they had all gone leaving him and the red-faced speak.

his, questioning, receiving in return the answer he sent her, as best he could. Pass ing quite close one afternoon in late spring, Jim, looking in at the open window, started. Under a layer of powder, half concealed, but certain, one of her lovely eyes were blackened. Seeing as he saw, she shivered Jims blood boiled. He nursed his wrath until the next day when the red-faced man sat at her side. When they had passed Jim inadvertently signalled stoppage in both directions. His thought seethed. That-for Her!
 She did not come the next day nor the next. The third day as the maroon car came in sight Jim abruptly halted traffic on the cross street, suspending long line of cars that had just begun to move, to the just indignation of dozen drivers who hastily damned their brakes. The maroon car came on and stopped by him. A gloved hand beckoned.
 Jim put his head within the open win dow. Her eyes had grown larger. They were great pools of sadness. Her cheeks still held their hectic dabs of rouge, but the red lips were bitten white. She leaned towards Jim and spoke in little breathy gasps.
 "Officer, could you-would you," she ex- tended bit If pasteboard. Jim took it from the shaking hand. He read the five words at glance and nodded. SEe was gone.
 ''Will you come this evening"" Evenings were long. He was off at seven. It would take him half an hour to get to the address on the card, Apartment 38," not even her name. He would just freshen up bit. It was eight when he walked up the two flights of steps to her door. Cautiously he had avoided the elevator. What were two flights?
 He waited in patience while he rang the bell at 38 three times. In patience until an
