"I've put her In charge of the woman In the dressing-room, who has taken her Into a small salon, which Is empty. She Is very much upset. Go down to her at once." He caught Laurie's arm, as she swayed, almost fainting In her re lief. "Steady!" he said gently. "You mustn't give way. Walt for me downstairs. I won't be long." As she hurried out, trembling, she saw Ilex Moore advancing on Jimmy Dallas with murder In his eyes. Gladys was weeping quietly In the simple, unrestrained misery of a tired child. The tears rained down In a curtain. She had evidently changed her clothes before her flight the night before. She wore a light blue muslin frock and a thin crepe coat over It, and a darker blue crochet cap on her glorious curls. The dress and coat were crumpled, and looked sorry finery. Her whole aspect was bedraggled, like a flower that someone has broken off Its stem and flung away. She had lost all her defiance; the Rex advanced on Jimmy note of gay selfishness had gone. Thero was no trace of sullen resist ance In the exquisite, tear-drenched fav. l..:urio took hor In her arms, thanking the drosslng-room attend ant and Intimating that she. could go. The little salon led out of a writlug-roora. Nobody was likely to disturb them at this late, or, rather early hour. "Glad Glad! My little one, don't cry!" soothed Laurie, like a mother. "You've nothing to cry about now. I've found you, darling; that's all that matters. You're quite safe with me. And Rex Is hero. Rex found you, Glad. He's wonderful. I'm so happy. I can think of nothing now that you're safo." THE! girl cried a little more, but not for long. In the atmosphere of love and selfless devotion with which her sister had always sur rounded ber, she soon rocoverod her self. But It was a stricken soul that looked out of the groy-blue eyos. Glad's heart had been sorely wounded, but her self-assurance had received a more crushing blow still. She had thought horself so strong, so Independent. She had Imagined she could have plenty of fun, and not pay for 1U She had put her faith In man In the shape of Jimmy Dallas. And she had had a nasty tumble from the dizzy height of ro mance and adventure Into the mire of crass reality, "Laurie, I'm so wretched!" she said. In a voice hoarse front fatigue and fright "1 thought be loved me. I was crazy about him. And now you'll hate and 4apla me. And I loathe myself for being susfe a fool." "Don't talk Ilka that Olad!" said Laurie. And now ber Urel-hoadsd-nojf realed Itself, .snd she apokt In e.n.:et businesslike way. "Brrtn:n is all right I hs7e seen Mr. !. and I know that he !rtoka yoe Uio coming here with Mr, tint that yon went away last night becnuso you found him out.

And In some wonderful way that 1 don't understand Rex found you." "Laurie, he can do something to me 1 can't tell you what!" Glad confessed, shaking In a sudden paroxysm of fear and shame. "When I'm with him, I can't even think of myself. I didn't know what I was doing. Now it seems It can't have been me who came here with him, and lied to you, and made poor Nelly so miserable, by telling her she must keep my secret." "Never mind, darling," said Laurie. "It's all right now." But Gladys had to unburden her poor llttlo heart. "Now 1 know 1 never believed In him at all," she repeated In i strangled voice. "I Just wanted to be with him anyhow. It was all my fault, Laurie. I led him on to think that I knew what be meant And I thought 1 did. "But when we were back again here last night, after she show and the supper I Just knew that I had been all wrong. I didn't want Just a good time. I didn't want to be with blm anyhow. I'm afraid I made a silly scene. ! knew what I'd done and I went quite dotty, I think. He tried to make me stay, and I ran away." LAURIE sat with her sister's hands clasped In hers. She did not look'at Glad. with murder In hl eye "What did you do, darling?" "I don't know. It was very late you know. I had to get a porter tc lot me out of the hotel. But It wasn't dark long. I got to the river and I thought I'd throw myself In. You soo, I'm crnzy nhotit Jimmy, and I didn't want to live any longer. I Just didn't "But I was frightened and people looked nt mo so quoorly. Oh, Laurie, there were such dreadful people wandering about by the river! 1 fell like I did whon I wna 111 In Sydney. I think I must have had fever." "But all today?" Laurie asked. "What havo you been doing?" "Wandering about, I think. I sat in a pretty park for hours. There were lots of children playing ahout They wore so swoet." "What havo you had to eat?" "Nothing. I found I'd loft my bag at the hotel. I hadn't even a hand kerchief!" And Gladys gave a shrill little lnugh that tore her sister's heart "I didn't want food, anythow. I walked about the streets until It was dark. I looked In the shops. Ob. Laurie, the shops are too lovely, aren't thoy?" This was a touch of the real Gladys, and Laurie smiled. Then Gladys began to cry again, from sheer weakness, "When It wns dark, I dldu't know what to do." she said. "1 went Into a big church somewhere; there was a service going on, and such lovely music. But 1 felt terrible when It was over and they shut the doors. "And in the and 1 thought the only thing to do wna to come back to the hotel and ft Jimmy to give me some monr to get back to England with. I found my way somehow I met a man who spoke English and Joit before I got to It, I came across Res Moore. Hp was almost Immedi ately outsldo. That seemed to be the end of everything."
