Kitty, a member of the company, f roves her belt friend and Xella tints lodgings to begxn her stage vbrk. 'iVoMJ Go On With the Story CHAPTER X DfARKNESS found me still without'a VlodRlng. I hnd about derided to Urow myself ngnln on Kitty's kindness. nd beg pcrmtfcMon to pass the nlcht if necessary on the floor of her room, when I remembered that I didn't even 'know where she lived. I vould have to wait until she vub back at the thea tre Even then, there was no telling how long I might have to wait before v, niili Rn mp. I was tired and des perately hungry. I would ak the first person I met to direct me to some restaurant or hotel where I could get some supper. Dut on turning n corner I found myself on what seemed to be the prin cipal business street of the town. Star ing me in the face was a dilapidated electric sign with a good half of its bulbs either broken or gone. From the; ones that still were in a condition to perform the office for which they had been intended, I managed to spell out that my tired feet had led me to the "Palace Hotel." Anything less like one's preconceived idea of a palacu could Jiardly be imagined. However, a glance through the window of the dining-room Bhowed me a small number of respectable-looking, people gloomily occupied in the con sumption of their evening meal. Any thing looked good to me in my ex haristcd state. I went in by the ladies entrance, wondering, as I did bo. if the dilapidated sign which hung immedi ately over the entrance could be per suaded to stay in its place until I was tAlely past the dingy portal. The dinner was better than I had hoped'. Feeling utterly incapable of further exertion after I. had satined the pangs of my hunger, I decided to ,remain at the 'Talace" for the night, and pursue my search for a room the xflrst thing in the morning. Having been shown to n huge barn- like room which contained nothing but the most necessar furniture, but which, like the dinner, furnished an I agreeable disappointment in that it seemed fairly clean, I lost no time in tumbling Into bed. I was too tired even to dream. I awoke the next morning to find the sun streaming in through the torn and faded window - blind. I accepted it ns a good omen. and after breakfust started out again, refreshed both in mind and body. This time l'uck was with me The first place I I called I found a small room which had the merits of being both clean and ' neat and for a price within my modest mcns. I took it for a week, paying half of the rent down in advance. Recalling whnt Kitty had said about 1 morning rehearsals, I went over to the theatre In the hope of seeing her and perhaps finding her free for a moment. In the 'latter hope I was disappointed Bhe seemed to be on the stage every minute of the time. Hut she nodded and smiled gayly on seeing me, and told me in pantomime that I was not to have nny fears for Mondav night I had feared that I might not be per mitted to witness a rehearsal, being ' itill an outsider. Hut no. one paid nny attention to me. I think for the first time I realized what unremitting drudgery falls to the lot of the stock actor. I no longer wondered that Kitty complained of being exhausted ho for , thet matinee was over. The way they went over an'd 'over seerfe after scene ' was fatiguing, even to a spectator I Toward the close of thn rehearnl Kitty found time to thrust a copy of f the song we were to sing together into j myhand The words and music were , en separate sneets. hastily and rare ' Itssly copied from the orlglnnl My heart sank as I puzzled over them I spent the afternoon in mj room memorizing the words. As I have said , before, I could scarcely read music, nil ay playing being done by ear. Still i I felt that If I had only had a pmno. I I might have picked out the air after a fashion. But to read it absolutely by note, without any instrument to help toe, was entirely beyond me I felt, if possible, more discouraged than ever , The evening found me again nt the theatre"; partly because It was alreadv n I habit with me, and partly because I ' felt, the necessity of having a con i ference with Kitty over the song. To 1 my surprise, In view of tho long re- beoral in which she had scarcely left i the' stage I was too green to realize ' that I bad been witnessing the re hearsal for the plecp for the coming week I found that sho was not "on" . ' nt all In the third act. We had ample time, therefore, to tnlk things over In her shrill voice, which was yet somo how vfrry sweet, she sang over the nir of our duet several times, quite suf ficient for a person w ith my quick enr to catch it I felt more encouraged than I had' at any time since the whole wretched idea was first broken to ine. Another vexed question Kitty was able tij settle with ready promptness tbo question of m boy's costume Her only regret was that nothing of hers .would be avnilable on account of Hie marked difference in nur height and figures, 'Hut' she. knew of a second-hand shop where I would bo sure to get some thing that would answer perfectly, nnd at atf absurdly low 'figure. She, her self t had "dealt there ever since she had .first been connected with tho Henry Irving. 'She would go with me to the b&n ihn tifTt ilnv hAtivftitn rnhpnrvnl aai the matinee. Thus, owing entirely 1 tfl Kitty's kindness, I was able to go M pea mat mgiii in my now ruum huh (ft tighter henrt than I would have UiMtMMd possible earlier in tho day. v HERE EUGENIE BREW, HOTEL NORMANDIE ""- .
