The horror of it! Her own hopeless, helpless condition! But final- ly, because her trouble was new and her body and mind, though worn with excitement, were healthy and young, she sank into a deep sleep, without | having decided at all what she should ' do. At last she woke from a terrible wing wise with experience, dlg:?vereg that she could get a black sateen shirtwaist for fifty cents. Rub- bers and a cotton umbrella took an- other dollar and a half. She must save at least a dollar to send back the suit ase by express. i A ba);gaiu-table of odds and ends of woollen jackets, golf vests, and old tashioned blouse sweaters, selling oft at a dollar apiece, solved the prob- | floss. lem of a wrap.

The first necessity, she decided, was to change her appearance so far as possible, so that if news of her escape, with full description, had been tele- graphed, ehe might evade notice. To that end, she arose in the early dawn- | i s o — ] Here Was a Ray of Hope. streets. She was ushered into a little fitting-room near by. Rapidly she slipped off her fine, silk- lined cloth garments, and put on the stiff sateen waist and the coarse black skirt. Then she surveyed her- self, and was not ill pleased. There was a striking lack of collar and belt. She sought out a black necktie and pinned it about her waist, and then, with a protesting frown, she delib- erately tore a strip from the edge of one of the fine hem-stitched handker- chiefs, and folded it in about her neck in a turn-over collar. The result was quite startling and unfamiliar. The gown, the hair, the hat, and the neat collar gave her the look of a young nurse-girl or upper servant, On the whole, the disguise could not have been better. She added the blue wool- len blouse, and felt certain that even her most intimate friends would not recognize her. She folded the rain- coat, and placed it smoothly in the suitcase, then with dismay remem- bered that she had nothing in which to put her own cloth dress, save the few inadequate paper wrappings that had come about her simple purchases, She folded the dress smoothly and laid it in the suitcase, under the raincoat, She sat down at a writing-desk, in the waiting room, and wrote: “I am safe, and I thank you” Then she paused an instant, and with nervous haste wrote “Mary” underncath. She opened the suitcase and pinned the pa~ per to the lapel of the evening coat, Just three dollars and sixty-seven cents she had left in her pocketbook after paying the expressage on the suitcase.
