Then my brain clearcd, and T realized that 1 was in- | deed awake and that T must pull my- self together to face a decision of importance, For the things which Mrs. Marks was hastily stowing dway in my ward- robe were fur garments of wonderful lustre and sheen, cloaks which even | my inexperienced eyes knew were far too costly for the wardrobe of the panic-stricken woman before me, Memory flashad me a glimpse of her | own closet upon the day when I was ' in her apartment and the door of it inadvertently had stood aj 1 had saen those cloaks then, or garments very like them, and I remember the haste with which she had shut the loor and the furtive glance at me with which she tried to ascertain what had seen, At that time T had been able to *eign ignorance, but now 1 must face racts and the only conclusion to which her terrified actions pointed.

He wants to see me.” A disbelieving, incredulous flashed into her face. “To see you!” she repeated. “What's a flat like that got to do with any- body like you?" There was such incredulity in her voice and face that I found myself flushing as if T were guilty of some- | thing eriminal. “Put he does wish to see me T persisted, and with the words she shut the wardrobe door upon the fur garments and grasped my wrist so | he should | after the look | ments must be stolen furs.

The day after he was brought back to his a his friend Mr.| Prescott left for home. The night befors Mra, Prescott went, he read to Mr. Carton, in my pressncs, parts of a letter which had Js2ea written to her husband by Leslie Prescott. Tt seems that Mr. Carton had an old shop in San Francisco a little coral god, and thinking Mrs. Pres- colt might like it, he had sent it Getting Skinnier Every Day Something Must Be Done and, Done Darn Quick, Too Tens of thousands of thia, run- down men—yes, and women too-—are getting discouraged—are giving up all | hope of ever being able to take on fesh and look healthy and strong.

However, ing modern men, they both claimed any superstition about matter. Mr. Prescott said with a smile that if he found his wife with an ecager, questioning ook upon her face, if he found her serutinizing all the men that she saw, he would probably send the Jittie coral god back to his friend ®id, otherwise he would let her wear it. They joked about the matier a lot seemed to as Mr, he- dis- the found in but 1 conld see a kind of tense strain on Mr. Carton's face, which 1 could not explain.
