There, in the old-fashioned parlor, between the two great unglazed win- dows through which poured a ftood of moonlight, lay the body of a man. The deceptive moonlight gave the prostrate form a shadowy, uncanny look. With a cry of abject fear she tore herself free from Barrington's restrain- ing grasp and rushed from the house. “Oh, 1t was too horrible! she shua- dered. ‘I've seen and heard queer things there when I was a child, but never anything like that. It was the ghost of the suicide. The man that cut his throat. «He was lying just where I'd always pictured him. Did you see that awful gash across his throat?” “Nonsense!” blustered Barrington, re- gaining his nerve with a supreme effort. “Thi '8 no such thing as ghosts. That was just some drunken bum or hobo, takin’ a free sleep in the empty hou: That dark line on his throat—the thi you took for a gash—was just the way the moonlight happened to hit him, Most likely it was his necktie layin’ across his throat.

It was with. a new look in her eyes that Mercedes studied his strong, rugged face in the moonlight. Hi faults of education, the drunkenness of great wealth, the blatant exterior, seemed to fade away, and she saw for the first time the real MAN under- neath it all. “We are not going back to town," she said, firmly, ‘I was a weak little fool, but now I am strong again. 1 don't know why, but I think 2 can have no fear while you are beside We'll go back to the house and a whole army of ghosts, tf need be. “You're the kind of girl they make of in dime novels," he sald at last, as they retraced their steps toward the dark, gloomy edifice; “It's an honor to have your friendship.
