Bristow hovered about all morning, helping lay out the work, consulting books, offering suggestions, keeping Kelsey so busy, that he did not have a moment to slip away from his desk and look for the girl, and the afternoon was not much better. It was almost five o'clock before he felt free to leave the office and scek her. Most of the patients, he saw, with their attendant nurses, were clustered over at the side of the lawn, inter- estedly watching the destruction of @ wide ,section of ‘the wall beyond the encircling hedge. He stood looking on with the . others, but his eyes were less cn- gaged with the wall than in sifting the group of spectators for a sight of the girl; and he-had about made up his mind that'she was not present, when he finally saw her sitting on a stone bench a little removed from the rest. Kelsey looked about for the omni- present nurse, but she was nowhere in sight; so he walked boldly over and geated himself on the hench. He felt the girl start and turn, but he did not glance at her. With his elbow on his crossed knee, chin in haid, he sat watching the demolition of the wall. ¥Where is Miss Copley?” he asked undef his breath. 111" she answered. “She’s got a sick ‘headache. Another of the nurses is supposed to be looking after me, but she’s busy now. .~ uOn,” she went on in a fervent whisper, “T've prayed that you would come today. 1've dared so much on the strength ‘of it. It was so neces- sary that 1 should see you." “#And also, that I should sce you,” he broke‘in, I have news. Bristow has engeged me to help him in the preparation of some magazine articles. T will be in his office, in a position to know everything that goes on. Perhaps—?" .wWalt!” she interrupted. ‘‘Before any one comes, I have something I want to give you." * She cast a searching glance about: and then slipped a folded paper from of is one reason for the rapidly firowlng popularity of the otel Martinique.

Kearing thut he had alrcady stayed too long with her, and knowing of nothing else to be said, Kensey rose to go; but she detained him with a qguick jesture. “Wait!" He could see that her fingers were. trembling as she guided her pencil; therc. was an excited tremor in her voice. "I must see you tomorrow. Don't let anything pre- vent, I have an idea. We may be able to get away.” He nodded. A nurse was moving toward them, and he dared not linger. “I will lay off about noon, and find you." He was cager of counse to see what the message she had given him con- anything of Dr. she, asked “Only, that 1 when he shaves ~— No more of that miserable eruption that had such a biting sting when he touched it.

When 1 tried to go, they pre- vented me by force, T screamed and struggled, Then the Doctor put a drug into my arm These scenes rappened several times, and always ended in the same way. They never 16t me. get out of that one room. Then one day when Copley thought | was asieep, 1 -heard her talking out- side my door to another nurse. “This woman sald: “Ts your sister ghtting any better?” and Copley an- swered In a weep-y voice; ‘No; she'll never he any better, I'm afraid.’ They talked a while, and then the other nurse said: It you were a it younger, dearie, and hadn't been here for ‘years, 1'd try to get the hundred thousand dollars reward for that miss- ing Hope Ranger. You're almost a dead ringer for her. “Then it all flashed over me, what they were doing; wh , Hope Ran- ger, was ingthia plac: x The sheets of the letter shook in Kelsey's hands. wAfter 1 heard these women talking, and' understood what it meant, | nearly went mad, trying to think what to do. T head alrcady tried to bribe Copley, but she is in love with Bristow and absolutely ruled by him, Ho I just sat thinking; plans, plans seething throngh my brain —" “1 know all about that” mutttered Kelsey, as he paused to turn the page. Then she quickly, resumed: — “T was so furious, so despairing. so bent on finding some way out, that T wouldn’t even look at those two, the only persons I saw. 1 wouldn’t speak to. them, or notice then in any way. They couldn’t understand the reason for the change in me, and were sur- prised. I saw them exchanging glances. And then it came to me. 1 don't know how, that if I pretended to be silly and not remember any- thing, they might let me out of that room and go about as T saw the others doing from my window. “J worked up another scene with Copley, when I knew the Dactor was away. I fought to get out the door, and when she gave me the drug to quiet me, I accused her of having given me an over-dose in her excite- ment. She. denied it, but was bothered. Then 1 pretended to lie in a stupor for almost an entire day. When T came to; I acted as if 1 were stupid, as if 1 weve some one else, said 1 was a writer and asked for pencils and paper, and wrote pages of nonsense. o1 heard Bristow talking to Copley. ‘Shamming,’ he said at first, but she convinced by this time that she had given me an over-dose, and finally got him to thinking so, too. T heard him explaining to her about ‘shock’ and something about, ‘a congenitally weak brain.' She was upset about it all, but he told her, ‘Better so, if it's true.’ 3 “He put me through all kinds of tests-—surprises, everything. Tt was dreadful, but my nerves are strong, and T was fighting for my life. He talked to me about my parents, my home, 1 was indifterent. Then he got to trying to make me remember things that aren’t true. He told me my name Was Yerna Copley, and T repeated it after him likt a parrot. T have oply forgotten my pose with them once. That was when Copley tried a hat on me and T caught a glimpse of myself and burst out laughing.
