" "I mean' that, the landscape looks
like a picture by a man named Corot."

Her heart rcsva siekentnav throb.
He had said she was sincere ana That
he "trusted her, . Yet she had never told
him of Heyman's cabaret. Why should
she? What - business wss it of his?
Perhaps, when she had an oppor
tuntty h would' tell iilm. Yet he
would think' It dreadful for a girl i to
have sung . In that kind of a place.
Patricia' had referred to it as "rapid"
and "gay," and had spoken of getting
hr. Adelaide, "out of a scrape" when
she took her from Heyman's. -
lI don't know anything about clas
alcal music.' Adelaide said now.
"Where did you learn to sing?"
"A woman who was kind to me-
giv me lessons...: - Then with a sud
den effort" When I left school. I had
to go to work. I Was in a milliner's
Shop. My employer's assistant knew
something Of muslo. She taught m a
little. But I had no voice to amount
to Anything." ,
! She looked at him anxiously. At all
events, he . know now that she had
been In a milliner's shop. Would he
look down os a girt who had held such
a. position.? ;
'"You wf Ji'pluclry littl thing to
start out. to fight- the -.world single
handed," he approved. : "It must have
been hard." ;
"It had to be done," she replied.
"Yon seemother's eyes failed. And,
anyway. I would not have-let her ssb
port us. ' She Is the bravest woman in
the world." -
"Tell m Ahouf Mr, he urged. r
, Adelaide did not find It hard to tell
him about her mother -of the fight
he had made to support her children
after her husband's death ot her e
duisite needle-work, of her blindness--
ef her determination to keep Jennie at
School. r , ' . ,
"She Is wonderful!" she said as she
finished the recital. "That Is why-1
have felt that I must do my part.. But:
I can never: be as fine as mother. It
was for her sake that I came to Ir.

glanced at him in the dim light.2' his
