He could not remember. I-le only knew the money was safe in his pocket and had been there (or s long time. His body and brain were tired. together from the tenseneas of his plight. He thought, “I'll take a tramp steamer for South America, of course. But first I've got to wait around a hit. They'll be hunting for me in railway stations and ship of- llices. I've got to bide my time-J‘

He saw that the crowd was thin- ning. Those who had come in the street car were entering the grounds of the school. He could not follow them, nor could he remain stand- ing here . . . He noticed the motor- man changing the sign on his car. Ha removed "CHARTERED. NOR.- MAL SCHOOL" and substituted “CROSS TOWN, NORTH. END GE‘ LINE."

John Smith got on. He rode across the city, but he did not go to the end of the line. That might cause him to be remembered. He gm ofl’ at a brisk shopping oom- munlty, where there were numer- ous small stores and many people milling about.

He sought, and found, a second- hand show-room for automobiles. He went in and bought a small used car of reliable make. He surprised the young salesman by paying cash for it. He had it serviced and got into it. “Which way to New York out of here?” he asked distinctly.

The salesman showed him the street to take, gave him a road map with marked directions.

The man called John Smith ap- parently ‘iollowed them. But. a few miles distant he crossed town at an angle and took a road which he knew well. The road toward Cleveland.

He was thinking, "The old woman will put me up. She’ll.hlde me for a while. Nobody will look lor me there. They'll be watching the trains and steamshlps." _

A ‘bit later he gained the open road and relaxed. The sun shone mlstlly on autumn fields, at rest. from the summer's fertility. Map- their foliage. The man laughed. “Worthville!—I suppose the dcor's still blue. I'll know the place by that—" He saluted a traflic cop as they passed one another. The offic- er saluted back carelessly.

CHAPTER XIV

Ruth was far more happy than she was unhappy. Far more gay than apprehensive. She was in love, and knew it. She moved in that. soaring, tremulous state when the mere recalling of a beloved pair of eyes, a beloved voice, sent the pulses pounding. The anticipation of an- other meeting with John McNeill— another such rendezvous as last night's rlde-made life a. glorious adventure. Her happiness dimmed

her Iears for the future, caused her to forget the insecurity of her posi- tion. and lulled her pricking con- science into comfortable quiescence.

In short, Ruth Woodson, becom- ingly clothed in one of the charity- box hand-knit. dresses, moved grace- fully through the old Hunter house, in and out its rooms, up and down its stairs, quite as if she owned the place. Old mirrors, cleared of dust by her own agile hands, reflected her presence; dim corners echoed her laughter and the sound of her sinsinz- .

Penny said feelingly that morn- ing: “l..or', Miss Elaine, it's good w have you here. You cheer up the place considerable!"

In the afternoon mail there ar- rived a check from “Miss Gwen." After Penny had pulled the letter from the rusty mail box she stood in the hall, handling it. with trem- bling fingers.

To Ruth, passing through the hall, she said importantly, "It's from your mother, It's the money she sends me regular for takin’ care c! the house. But seems like I'm gettin’ more and more B-flkid to open ’em. There might come a letter any time now, sayin’ I'm pen- stoned of! . . ." Her voice trailed away anxiously. .

Ruth's anxiety caught fire, too. She realized that the letter in Penyb hands was a sort of bomb which might, in its explosion, blow her temporary little world cf hap- piness to atoms. But she said, her voice held steady, “Don't anticrpate bad news, Penny, and maybe it won't ever come. Open the letter."

Penny obeyed. removing from the creamy, square envelope a- check and a folded sheet of paper. she said, handing the letter to Ruth, "You read it to me, Miss Elaine. I can't make out pen and ink writin’ very gooddately."

I O

Ruth unfolded the paper and ran her eyes down it hastily and anxiously. She thought, “If it says anything about Elaine-anything that will give me away, I'll skip it." Presently she breathed a quick sigh of relief. There was ncthins Bi B11 in the letter to upset her own world or poor old Penny's. She read aloud: .

"Dear Bertha: I am sorry to be a week or two late with your check but I have been in France and have lust gotten home. I hope W" hi" not been inconvenienced. Please see that the leaks ln the slate roof are attended to, also the guttering, and whatever other "pairs are

"Therel" said Ruth, handing it back. "I don't believe they've any idea of pensioning you oil, Penny. Quit worryingl"

Penny was nodding her head in relief. "I'll take the check right down to the hank," she said. "I haven't been down town for about three months. I've got to lay in some staples at the grocery store. I'd be obliged if you'd keep house for me while I'm gone?"

"0; course I will," Ruth assured ber. "Give me that cloth and 1st me finish dusting. Then you can get ready and go right. away." When Penny came down a bit later, batted and coated for the oc- casion andwearing overshoes and an anxious expression, it was evid- out that this trip "to town” was an important event in her life. Act- ually ahe left the house only four times a year, and that was for the purpose of banking her quarterly check. Pausing beiore she want out the door, she said to Ruth earnest- y. "I won't be gone more‘n an hour and a half, all told. If anybody comes here askln‘ for me-eskin’ for me by name, I mean-will you have ‘em come in and wait?"

Jwhy, yes," Ruth answered, “of course. Can you manage all right at the street crossings, Penny?" Bertha nodded. "I'm careful, and I use my umbrella for a cane. I never have any trouble that way." (To Be Continued\
