He thought it sounded like the voice of Bessie, and that sue was wan dering ever the highway in the dark ness, alone and distraught. Next dny he began te inquire if any thing had been seen of such a person. h irm tnit nf n vnuns woman who. fnnn.i wnlkincr harefoet en the lencl.v read te Drcamlang, had been taken te the asylum, and he hurried mere 10 in quire.

Brief as the message, was, the clerk at the counter could hardly decipher the agitated handwriting. A few minutes later he was at the police efljee, asking the Chief Consta ble for an order te allow him, as Bes sie's advocate, te see her alone in her cell. At 2 o'clock he was back at the rail way station, tnklng the tnln for Cas tletown. As he stepped into his car riage the newsboys were calling the contents of the evening paper: Victer Stowell appointed Deemster. Glorious! Bessie would have a hu man being an the bench. Thank Ged for that anyway ! II "I don't knew what you are talk ing about I really don't Yeu make me laugh. Whatever will you say next ! I was ill nnd I came home te hnve ray mother nurse me, and that was all I knew until Cain, the constable, came te bring me here." It wns Besic before the High Bailiff. Her face was thin nnd pale, and she wns clutching the rail of the deck in nn effort te keep herself erect, while her shrill Aelce echoed te the reef. The magistrate was about te commit her te prison when Dr. Clucas rose In the body of the courthouse. "Your worship." he said (his voice was husky and hlH eyes had a leek of tears), "the defendant is suffering from the temnernrv manlu which Is net un usual In such cases. I suggest that she should be sent te the hospital." Bessie fainted. The next thine she knew was that she was in bed in a hospital ward, and thnt another doctor (a veunser man with thin hair and a larcc Diianacleus mouth) was leaning ever her, nnd laying his hnnd en her breast. She pushed it off, and then he said, In an authoritative tene: "My geed woman, if you. arc inno cent, as jeu say, the best proof you cun give is that et a mcuicai examination." At this Iiessie broke into fierce wrath. . . "If you touch me again," she cried, "I'll tear your eyes out!" Then sne fainted once mere, and for two days lay in a strenp delirium. When she enme te herself a nurse with n kind fnce wns by her side, say ing "Hush!" and doing something nt her breast with a glass Instrument.

She dnre net nsk whom, but lny wenderine if Allck knew where she was and what had happened te her. After a while she said, "Is it in the papers?" The nurse nodded, nnd nfter n mo ment, with her eyes down, Bessie said, "Una' an body been here te nsk for me?" Yes. j our mother she comes night and morning." "Nobody else?" "NobedN." Hesslc broke into sobs nnd turned her fnce te -the wall. Allck knew! He had given her up ! She had lest him ! When she recovered from an neenv of tenrs her ees were glittering nnd her heart wns hitter. What did she enre whnt became of her new? They might de whnt they liked with her. Deny? Whnt was the geed? She would deny no longer. She would tell the truth about everything. Then Fenella Stanley enme. Bessie thought she liked Miss Stnnley better tlinn any woman, except her mother, she hnd ever known. But thnt only mnde It the linnier te nole te her rese if she told the could net shut out everything. Over the rumble of the wheels, when the train started again, she heard shrieks of laughter from the compartment In front. The elderly men were jesting In their free way with the girls, and the girls, nothing loath, were answering them back. At the junction of St. Jehns, the train had te step for carriages from Peel te be linked en te it, and while the coupling was going en one of the passengers strolled along the platform. It. was Willie Teare, who had wanted te marry Bessie, and he saw her be hind the constables. At the next mo ment n throng of girts gathered outside Iter window, but the constables pulled down the blinds. "Take your scats! Take your seats!" The train went en. There was no mere laughter from the passengers in the compartment In front. Bessie un derstood they wcre whispering about her. " Her heart was becoming hard.
