loung Mrs. Waterhouse finished the
writing of a dutiful letter to her mother.
The letter assured the anxiouB old

that there was really no necessity for

herself quite content at Biarritz. Geof

attentive and kind. And she was, with
much love, mamma's affectlonute

"Mamma won't believe it, said
young Mr. Wuterhouse, with a kind of
comic despair. "She Is always want
ing to know u bunt Hie skeleton. IhuuK
goodness, there isn't one!"
On the clean blotting pud was an
impress of some of her husband's writ
ing. A palette-shaped mirror stood on
the table, and, half unconsciously, she
turned the pad toward It.
Wonder to whom he has been writ
ing?"
It was quite easy to see.Mrs. water-
bouse glanced nt it casually at first;
then, her face fiercely pink, with much
attention:

Alicia!" cried Mrs. Waterhouse
aloud, us she panted and sat back in
her chuir. "Alicia! Alicia who I won
der!" She knew his writing so well that she
could scarcely be deceived on that point.
The whole thing In a moment was clear.
Her dear mother, with a less crampeti
experience of the world, had been
right, after all.
l'here Is a skeleton, said the tremb
ling Mrs. Waterhouse. She tore her let
ter to Biarritz Into many pieces.' As
the last fragment went Into the ferns
in the fireplace she felt a kiss upon her
neck.
"Don't do that, please," she cried.
"Beg piirdon," said her husband.
"Did I frighten von?"
He took off his hat and adjusted his
prlnce-nez. His coolness almost took
her breath away.
"I must say, Geoffrey." she declared.
"that 1 can't help admiring your your
check." '
My love, I admire yours. I meant to
have kissed It just now."
She took up a newspaper anil, iwisi

The door slammed. Mrs. W'uterhous'
went upstairs to her room and hurried
ly. very hurriedly, packed a portnian
teuu. There wus time to catch the mull
ut Charing Cross, und she meant to
catch it. The great thing was to get
away to Biarritz, away from the stilling
atmosphere of this house, away from
London. She rang for her maid.
"Parker."
"Yes, ma'am."
"The mall goes at 8 from Charing
Cross. I think?"
"11 used to go at S. ma'am," said
Parker, cautiously. "When we went
away, If you remember "
"Yes, yes, of course. I want you to
pack a bag for yourself and we will
catch the mall tonight."
"Catch the mail, ma'am, tonight?"
"Yes, yes. Lose no time please, and
send out for a cub."
"Well, I never!" muttered Parker
Mrs. VVaterhouso hud some intention
of having one line, big, square -scene
with her husband before she left, but
there was little time to spare. More'
over. It occurred to her that she could

letter, to be dispatched lrom Biarritz

"Come along, Parker," she called.
"It's all very well to say 'comealotig,
muttered Parker, discontentedly "but
this Is u rum sort of a game, and I don't
'alf cotton to It."
"We've got twenty minutes. Tell the
man to drive carefully, but to drive very
fast."
Tlie most galling thing about the
whole deplorable affulr was the certain
ty that her mother would meet her at
the station with an "l told you so, my
poor lamb," expression. Still there was
no one else to whom she could go, unit
at any rate, she could always control
mamma. She had always done so.

"The mall, lldy?" said the porter, civ
illy. "The mull goes at Ite fifteen, It's

Get one or two for yourself, you know."
Parker, still rather inclined to be
cross, went to the bookstall. It half re-
stored the excellent maid to complacent
submission to what she termed all this
ramping about to find the new number
of the Lady 'h Own Chutterbox on sale,
It was her own particularly favorite
journul.
"We'll get In now, Parker," said Mrs.
Waterhouse. "There's twenty minutes
to wait, but we may as well take our
seats. Seconds, please, porter."
They found comfortuble corner seats,

Parker sniggered so much when she
saw two Frenchmen kiss each other
that she dropped the Lady'g Own Chat

and held It In hf-r hand.
"I must read." she whispered to her
self. "I must do something to keep my
self from thinking. I shall faint If
don't divert my thoughts."
