She was one, in & fixed place, this room; the others were three, and moved about at will =~three acting In concert. Acting in eoncert! With the repetition of the words, a thrill ran over her from head to foot, and there came a flash of |I- lumination. If that unity, that close concord could be broken, if they got to argu- ing and disagreeing among themselves, it would inevitably mean postpone- ment of action. Bhe looked at the little clock on the dressing table. Tt was growing late. Mijss Copley would be in at any moment now. She must dress and be ready for her. She was just putting the finishing touches to her toflet when the nurse entered with the breakfast tray. As Anita saw Hope standing there fuly dressed, she halted so abruptly that the dishes rattled on the tray. Bhe put it down hastily, and looked . at her patient with unconcealed - amazement. “You're not usually so spry.”’ she said sourly. “What did you fix your hair that way for? Hope affected astonishment at the * question. “Why, 1 always do it this Anita scowled, but scemed to take her eyes off the girl. “Eat your brealkfast,” she said peremptorily, and walking over to the window stood with her back to Hope, looking out on the rain-soaked grounds, biting her raw lip in ab- sorbed cogitation. Finally she turned, as finishing her coffce. “I'll get your pencil and paper for you.” Hopé ' abjefted, hands . pettishly. .\ “I never went to see them again,” " ghe said, “What would I do with pencil and paper? I have no one to write to."” Miss Copley gave her another long lookfi, a peculiarly sinister one this time, and left the room. A little later, Dr. Bristow knocked, unlocked the door, and came in. He was tubbed and dressed with his usual meticulous care, but he had not been able to obliterate the traces of worry and fatigue. He looked even more worn and harassed than Copley. As she saw this, Hope's Pbrightened, her color bloomed. “Good morning, Doctor,” she said blithely.

And at this moment, Anita Copley chose to return to the room. She stood inside the door, glancing from one to the other, varying emo- tions depicted on her face, Surprise. suspicion deepening to comprehen- sion, And then jealous anger. Hope laughed gaily and clung to | his hand. He smilingly released himself and left, without another glance at Anita. “You're in love with him.” The girl's face was clfishly acute, as she taunted her jailer, She knew that she was going beyond the danger-line, but she took that risk. The further she could goad Anita the better. “And he doesn’t care that for you!" She brought her fingers together and then opened them, blowing off an imaginary speck. ‘“‘He likes me! He likes me!” She made an ununvrtod rush, and propelled ‘\Mta toward the mirror. “Look at us! Look," her chin on the woman's shoulder, Anita stood trance-like for an in- stant, enthralled by the two faces so like and yet so different, with all the terrible difference in Hope's favor, And then before the younger woman could vealize her purpose, she whirled. There was one stinging Llow on the cheek that sent Hope staggering. Others, a rain of them, followed. “Now, you crazy loon!" in a gasp- ing, threadlike snarl.” “Keep still, or T'll give you worse, Keep still, I tell you,” as Hope crouched and whim- pered. “T'll sce about this! T'll sce about this”” She rushed from the room. Hope caressed her and smiled. CHAPTER XXTV. Hobo Bill sat in what he called the “parlor” of his suite in the sanitarium, an old man in a worn, velvet dressing- gown, At twenty minutes after three, Bristow and Anita Copley came in to- gether. An ill-suppressed hysteria showed under Anita's efforts at composure. Higgins peered at them through his heavy-lensed spectacles. “You're late,” he croaked To his valet he gave a curt “Get out.” “Sorry,” Bristow said, “but I had to wait for that potterer, Morton. He very seldom leaves the place ,but to- day of all days he chose to depart on some errand of his own, and staid over tivo hours. The time passed excitingly, though.
