Billy was silent. “What became of the pretty red. haired girl you used to follow around last winter?” pursued Channing, con- fident that now he was on the right trail to the source of Billy's extraors dinary behavior, for normally Billy Jelliff was an ardent sportsman. Billy affected nonchalance “I've followed so many girls around,” he murmured with a wry smile. “Oh, I can remember her name if I must! She was a chum of Ethel's at school—Amy—Amy Ray! Where is she now—married ?” “For all T know,” murmured indifferently, but there was that in his voice that told much to his exe perienced companion “Of course I don't old man, but if it will relieve chest any to talk about it, tell it to me—I'm as safe as a tomb.” Thereupon with many Billy unbosomed himself to Channing even to telling about the letter he had written to Amy and of her cool reply. reply to a letter like mine?” he de- manded taking Amy’s worn little note from his bill case and giving it to his friend.
