Mrs. Mapes's help. Mrs. Mapes took
a great part of the care of Joy off Jane's
shoulders.
Jane's last waking thought was a
determination to turn over a new leaf.
If she married ,Bob she would have time
to do this. And then, like the child she
was, she fell asleep and looked little
older than Joy as she lay with her short
hair flung around her on thc pillow.
Ruth and Scott were sitting in the
big studio living room the next evening
when the bell fang sharply.
Scott went to open the door and the
next minute ushered in a slim voung
woman with short black hair and, a
radiant face. ,
Ruth sprang up. "Why Jane, how
lovely of you to hunt us up ! Scott, this
is Mrs. Knowles. I want ou people
to be good friends."
Ruth was ashamed of herself, hut she
could not" help noticing Jane's obvious
untidiness. The stockings which Jane
had mended so hurriedly the night be
fore showed an unmistakable hole
across the instep where a bad run had
widened perceptibly. Her shirtwaist
was badly crumpled, and she looked
warm. However, her little black hat
which she had made herself, crushed
dowb over the curly hair redeemed her,'
and Ruth hoped that Scott would not
notice the discrepancies. And Scott
didn't. He was plainly taken with
Jane, and Ruth forgot the lack of
niceties in Jane's dress as she listened
to her talk. Just before she left, she
whispered jo Ruth In an aside:
"I have bomething to tell you."
Ruth carried Janc'oft ta the bedroom
apparently for some powder, ostenslblv
to hear the news. She was as delighted
as Jane expected her to be, and asked
all about Bob, what he did, what he
looked like, where she had met him and
all the other hundred and one questions
that a woman always asks at such
times.
