CAROLINE'S PLIA
CAROLINE felt as If there were
strong Invisible ban between
them. Sh lifted hor obln ul took a
step forward. Ail the bolts and ban
Is the world weren't going to keep
her from Jim.
"May I come tof
Nesta stood where ihe waa, the
door half closed.
"I'm Mrs. RlddeU but I don't
know who you are."
"I'm Caroline Leigh. Ive got a
message from the Eliton cottage
hospital. Mar I come inT"
Nesta RlddeU had bo Intention of
talking about the Elaton cottage hos
pital at Mln's front door. She stepped
hack, let Carolina pass her and,
hutting the door, showed the wax
Into the parlor. Carolina turned to
tsos her, flushed with success,
There, beside the hearth, was the
ooalscuttle, aa bright as a new pen
ny. Sbe held out the bill.
"I think you dropped this MIL The
aorse asked me to give It to you."
Nesta glanced at It, frowned, and
arushed It Is her hand.
"Thank yon yon needn't hare
troubled; It didn't matter."
"Oh, but I waa coming to see you
anyhow."
"You were coming to see me?
What fort"
Caroline stayed silent Her feallng
of success drained away. Sbe felt as
If she were on the edge of saying
something rery Important Once she
had said it she would not be able to
take it back. Tet she must say it
Only what it waa that ebe must say
ihe did not really know.
Then she said it
"Where's Jim t"
Nesta'i hand closed hard upon the
rumpled bill. Jim wasn't here,
thank goodsees. H waa so more
than ten minutes since he had
barged out of the house. Jim I She'd
teach other women to come after
her husband. She repeated the name
in a most offensive voice.
"Jim?"
Caroline colored brightly.
"Mrs. RlddeU please I must see
him because I think he is my cou
sin, Jim Randal. The nurse said"
"What does she know abort it?
He's my husband."
"Are you sure?"
Nesta laughed angrily.
"What do you suppose?"
"The nurse said"
"And I say, what does she know
about it?"
"Please let me speak. The nurse
aid there was a piece of letter in his
pocket with the signature Caroline.
I'm Caroline, and I sent him a letter
signed just like that so you see"
and Haney's father Is a window
wa&her.
School at Mecca will not open until
January this term, the boys said.
NE
TESTA'S manner ohanged. She
smoothed away her frown and
aid In her best company manner:
"It'a a pity you've had ao much
trouble for nothing. The lotter was
from a Miss Caroline Bussell, who Is
a cousin of mine." .
Dejection flowed in upon Caroline
like a fog. It all came out so pat
Mlaa Caroline Bussell a cousin of
mine. . . . She couldn't have invented
a name like Carolina Bussell all in
one flashing Instant
She lifted her head as if to get
above the fog and asked:
"Have you got the letter here?"
"No, I haven't I don't keep old
torn bits of paper."
"If I could have seen it" said
Caroline vary earnestly. She waa
pressing ker hands together, palm
to palm, and anger to finger. Her
eras under her little brows tweed
as, the blight dear brows of peaty
water, gaaed pleadingly at Nesta.
Her hair was the same bright color.
Nesta did sot answer in words.
She smiled a little.
"If you would lend me a pencil
it I could write my name you'd
know if It was the same."
"Do yon think I dont know my
ws hubandr said Nesta.
What lid one say to that what
otmld see eayt Of course she must
know her own husband. Caroline's
hops waa a pricked babble. She had
made a fool of herself to a woman
with a rasping voice and eyes like
bits of tin.
she began to go slowly towards
the door. She was wearing a loose
brown tweed coat She hugged P
round her as if ahe were sold.
Nesta stood aside to let her pass,
but Just on the threshold Caroline
turned, her color changing brightly.
"Hava you got s photograph it
your husband?"
"No, I haven't"
"Not even a snapshot?"
"I've said no, haven't If"
Caroline rested her hand upon the
Jamb of the door. Something In her
would not take Neata's no: ahe
couldn't tell why. Eager words cam I
hurrying to her lips.
"Mrs. RlddeU I don't teal as tf I
could go away without seeing him.
Won't you try and understand how
I teal about it? It's such a strong
feeling I can't shake It off. II I go
away like this, I shall keep on think
ing about him, and about my letter
the one I wrote and signed Carolina.
And I shall keep on thinking, 'Sup-
pose It was Jim.' But If I were to sec
him, I should know."
The hard color rose in Nestafe
cheeks.
"Are you calling ma a liar?" she
said. "Because if yon are, rre had
sough. Jim Rlddell's my husband,
and I've got my marriage lines to
provs it I don't know who you axe,
and I don't care. Calling yourself
chap's cousin's aa good a way of get
ting off as any other and you may
be one of Jim's girls, or you may be
touched in the head.
"But this is my brother's house
and I oan do with your room Instead
of your company oomlng her after
another woman's husband and giv
ing me the lie about him to my face I
Let ms tell you that you'll sot aee
him, not if you were to stay here all
day. He's got something better to
do than ait about at home waiting for
his lady friends to drop In. He's got
our keep to earn and a Job to go to.
And I'll thank you to ba off out of
this."
Caroline's hand dropped from the
door. She looked taller. She was
pale.
She said, "Oood morning, Mrs.
RlddeU," and walksd out of ths
house and down the gravel path to
the car.

PICKING UP
ESTA RIDDELL bad time to
wonder what had happened to
Jim during the hours that followed.
When at last as uncertain step
sounded on the gravel path, she ran
to the door, anxiety flaring Into
anger.
"Where have you been?" she be
gan, and then stopped as he lurched
past her Into the parlor.
She thought at first that be" was
drunk, but it waa fatigue that sent
blm reeling to the nearest chair.
"Where have you been?" she ra
peated. "You look all In. What d'you
want to go walking abont till you're
lit to drop? Six hours you've been
gone, and you couldn't have had
bits or a drop, because you hadn't
a copper on you. Hold on and I'll
get you something Mln's got
ksttlt on."
She brought him cold meat and
vegetables and a cup of strong tea,
and followed up the meat with
bread and cheese. When he had
eaten and she had taken the things
away, she came back and looked at
him sharply.
Been a bit of a tool, haven't you?
What d'you want to go flinging off
like that? You've been 111, you know
and you get up out of bed and go
walking about tor the bost part of
seven hours on an empty stomachl
Batty, I call It!"
Ha was lying back In one of the
red and blue chairs, his face sharp
ened, his eyes filed and heavy. He
had the look of as exhaustion which
was something more than physical.
His body had moved mechanically
while thoughts which he could not
out-dlttanca pursued and threatened
him. . ' .
They drove him, and ha was
drives without hop of escape. Ha
did not know where ha had bear;
only as hs lifted the latch and felt
his feet upon the new gravel Tom
Williams had laid down, fatigue
came upon him Ilka an Insupportable
weight The food had dona him good.
Now there was a dullness on him.
It was like the tog. He frowned at
the recollection of the tog.
"You'd better gat to bed," said
Nesta briskly.
And presently ha was in bed and
sinking, sinking down. Into the
depths ot sleep.
