Tears of a mad self-pity were running
down his cheeks. Then he swung
around. He took something from a

this strange place. He had been so
deathly pale in these last days, as
though something frightful menaced
him. He had appealed to her. He
might be dying.
The silence broke under her knock
like shattered glass. The pieces
seemed to fall about her, leaving an
aghast and waiting emptiness. If he

had already happened. Then she heard
footsteps - sly, furtive footsteps -
and the door opened. She knew then.
instinctively, that she should not have
come. He was not i'll, not in the sense
that would have given him a right to
appeal to her. He was fully dressed.
The room behind him was confusion
of half-packed clothes. There was
something frantic about it and in his
livid. desperate face.
Lois half-turned to 60 but his hand
caught her arm. She had felt its crazy
strength once before and its threat
had called up the same reaction OF
proud courage. She was not afraid of
him, not afraid enough to throw him
off. She let him draw her into the room,
closing the door behind him. His words
poured over her in a wild torrent.

Her anger against Leslie had long
since burnt itself out. There remained
in her what she had always felt - a
curious pity as for someone not quite
adequate for life, sort Of tenderness
and gratitude for his persistent love.
a deep sense of responsibility. What
ever he had done to her she had hurt
him desperately. 1t did not occur to
her to hesitate. IF MIR. Thornton
comes in, tell him where have gone,
she said.
The apartment house was an adobe
block of buildings built round court
ward. Rand lived there because it was
the sort of place a temperamental
director might be supposed to live in.
Also since it was bungalow type, one
stored and without elevators, you
could come and 60 without the lynx
eyed surveillance of doormen who were
not above a little extra press money
for luscious tidbits of information.
That suited Rand. And in the day
time the place was gay enough with
flowers and sunshine. But at night,
unlighted save from a few windows
and a rare lantern. it had a melan-
choly and almost threatening aspect.

arms outstretched against her. She
had moments hesitation. She knew
now that she should have seen Gale
first. But she had no means of reach

her impulsive generosity to wait or to
find other help. Now she might turn
to Rand. But she distrusted and dis
liked him. She pulled at her courage,
contemptuous of her own weakness.

striding along, rather faster than they
usually go, l noticed, with his head up
and his hand on stiff sort of leather
handle that stood straight up from
Leda's harness. The man was talking
to her, and I could see by her ears,
that Leda was listening, but she didn't
jump up and look at the man and
bark. the way you naturally would, if
you were out for walk. She kept her
eyes straight ahead and trotted along.
very business-like and important.
All of a sudden, my cousin stopped
and sat down. and the man stopped,
too.
''Leda's tired" l said.
II doubt it." said Mother quietly.
"Well then. she's in for a licking, or
something" / said, because every
body knows we've got to mind them.
and that man wants to 60 on. Gosh.
Mother, even / know that"
''Leda knows a few things, by now,
that you don't," said Mother. Gould
you slip out and watch her. do you
think?"
Well, that was surprise, can tell
you, because, although there was a
fence hole that a clever pup could
worm through. we weren't supposed
to use it. But you can bet wriggled
out. like shot, when Mother herself
gave me the hint, and ! made tracks
for Leda and the man.
He was good looking young fellow.
but he had sort of lost his temper
with Leda. and he stood there, feeling
ahead of him with his foot and scowl-
ing. Forward, girl, forwardr' he said.
Get along. won't you - there's moth
ing wrong, is there? We came here
yesterday, I'm sure. Forward"
But Leda didn't bulge. I glanced
around and saw long piece of sewer
pipe lying on the ground. about foot
in front of them. Just beyond it was
a ditch they'd evidently been digging
for it. I'd seen some men working
there. I had supposed they were going
to bury some of their bones until
Mother had explained it to me.
So I understood, of course. that
Leda didn't want the man to fall over
the pipe. into the ditch. But there was
the trouble; Leda couldn't tell him,
because she couldn't talk. and the
man couldn't understand Leda, be-
cause he couldn't see.
This is pretty tough" said to
Leda, coming closer to them. You'll
never get anywhere, this way"
Leda never even cooked her ear at
me.
Forward. girl, forwardr the man
said again, and put out foot.
Leda held back and actually laid
one paw across his ankle! I'd never
have believed it if hadn't seen it.
Then, after a moment, she got up
and tugged off to the left. and the
man, after little hesitation. followed
her. Leda went around the end of the
pipe, sheered off little further for the
ditch, and started ahead again in the
original direction.
GOOD girl! That's right - now
we're OFF, said the man. Good old
Leda! I knew it was all right" He
patted her head and swung along, and

her ear and gave me a wink.

"Oh Mother, could I be like that?

care of them and - and everything?"
"You can, if you 60 to school and

tomorrow. and if you'll just control
yourself and study hard, I look to see
you 60 further than Leda - for you're

Mother, I'll work my paws off"

thing" added. II won't be so proud.
just because I'm in charge of one of
them. that I cut all my old friends,
when l meet them! I'll pass the time
of day with any dog"
That's just what you won't do"
Mother yapped back at me, you'll

that's what you'll do. and you won't
