CHAPTER IX "MBS. DBANE."

As tho train began Its rumbling Jonrnoy into tho night Mr. Drano folt a wild exultation. Ho was escaping from tho scenes of tho utmost misery ho had over oxpcrionceil. and ho was going to soe tho most adonihlo girl in tho world. Tho more ho thought of it tho more tho tramp's story nbout his marriage appeared to 1o absolute fiction—and yot, tho fellow had loon so confident, so un:inistakablv pleased with his prospectsi

And Ilessie liiul said tliat she lived in. Buffalo. Was sho dee-oiving him, and Mrs. liowors, too? It was all very ltranpe. Why had ho not taken the precaution to learn tho tramp's real name? Had ho gono and married Bosslo under tho namo of Drano?

Lawronco shivorod until ho rocallod that tho tramp had known Roesio In childhood and theroforo could not pass himsolf to her undor a falso namo. This was somo oomfort, but as ho puzzlod on ovor tho situation he began to doubt whether ho had dono wisely In running away from his Kansas City friends who had come to Now York to find him. Undoubtedly, however, thoy would havo declared that tho story of his advont,ures was tho figmont of a disordored brain.

So, with porploxltios and doubts his exultation gavo way to anxioty, and even tho prosjcctof Booing Dessto again .failed to reliovo his mind of trouble.

It was long past midnight whon he leached Now Ilaven. A cab took him rto tho lieavcr Mouse, where ho was donied admission because all rooms woro •taken. Leaving an application for tho iflrst vacancy, he found accommodations iolsewhoro, a sloopy watchman, grumfbling immoderately, showing him to a Itlny chamber on tho top floor. Wbon iho came down-stairs in tho morning to jay his bill tho clerk politely requested Siim to register, a formality that bad |beon neglected. Certainly ho would comply, and with a determination, formed in a flash, to sail undor truo colors, ho wrote his namo and address with bold, legible hand. Then he stood bojforo tho window, apparently gazing Idly Into tho street, really absorbed in formulating a plan of action. Just as Mr.

Drano waa registering a shrewd-looking young man with a note-book in one hand and a poncll in tho othor entored tho office. llo waited until Lawrenco had withdrawn from tho counter and then began industriously to copy tho namos and addresses from tho big book. Tho clork grooted him jocularly: "Well, Jimmy, what's tho news today?" "Read tho Evening Dir.patch and find out," was tho smart reply.

This brilliant repartee had dono service for opouing the conversation botween tho clerk nnd tho shrewd young man daily for many months, and it is probably so serving still. Tbero is nothing like having a witty rotort that is warranted not to wear out. CThe young man copied rapidly down tho pago until ho camo to the last pago. Then ho pausod and scowled an instant, after which bo wrote "Lawrenco Drano, Kansas City, Mo., No. 840, pd.," very slowly, and turned about slyly to scrutinize the broad bock of tho gentleman at tho window. "Any thing up, Jimmy?" askod tho clork. observing this action.

Jimmy wlnkod and nodded mysteriously, aivl twgan to search among the newspapers lying on tho writing table. Presently he found a New York papor of the day before and turned to the aocount of Mr. Drano's escape and tho reward offered for his capturo. "I thought so!" ho said, with a tri umphant grin, while tho clerk looked on in undisguised curiosity. Jimmy gave him no comfort. Instead, ho heightened the clerk's emotion by sitting down whero ho oould see Mr. Drane'H faco and scanning the papor »galn with frequent glances upward for comparison. "Mustache gono and clothes different," ho muttorod', "but it must bo tho man. I wonder whether ho'll become violent nnd murder mo if I speak to him. Perhaps I can inveigle him to a police station."

While Jimmy was still debating what to do to "scoop" tho boys on a big piece of nows and gain a thumping roward, Lawrenco decidod upon his own course and started to loavo the hotel. Jimmy "was on his foot Instantly and intercoptedhim. "Mr. Drano. I believe?" he said, interrogatively. "Yes," replied Lawrence,with a start of surprise. "Lawronco Drano, of Kansas City continued Jimmy. "Yes what can I do for you?" "I want to ask you Bomo questions nbout tho condition of affair.) in tho West," said .1 imiriy, glibly, "tho crops, •"ou know, farm mortgages and their effect on Industry, and all that sort of thing. If you'ro golngout 1 will walk along with you so as not to was to your time."

Jimmy opened tho door invitingly, intensely relioved that the escaped manioc should show no signs of violence, but Lawrence hold back. "Why do you ju.lt tlioso things?" ho inquired. "I represent tho Evening Dispatch, and wo like to get interviews from prominent men who favor New llnvcn with a visit." "Young man," said Lawrenco, laying his hand impressively on Jimmy's shoulder: whereat Jimmv jumped about

wcsw:

rod backwards and gofboliind a chair. "lfoung man,"continued Lawrenco,stepping forward, somewhat excited at this encounter and tho strangeness of it, "I know nothing whatever about crops, and what fow mortgages I hold are my concern and of no intorost to tho public."

I DECLIXK TO BE ISTKHVIKWEIJimmy looked discouraged, and Drane foolishly supposod that ho had settled tho business and rid himself of the »nnoyanoe. lie even felt somo wholly unnecessary compunctions of oonscionoe at having been so rude to tho young man. Ilowovor, ho said nothing more, but walked rapidly away.

Tho reporter, of oourse, followod him and did not lose 6ight of him until ho turned into tho Ueaver llouso. Then Jimmy ran to tho noarost tolograph oflloo and sent this dispatch to a New York newspaper: "1,000 words interview with Lawronco Drano, escaped maniac. Very violont. Shall havo him locked up In half hour."

This dono he returned to tho Beavor House, learned that tho gentloman had gono up-stairs to see a friend, sent a message to police headquarters and sat down to writo a glowing account of tho capture, which ho regarded as good as consummated, for his local papor and his Now York patron. Ho hod directed tho answor to his telegram to be sent to tho Beaver Llouso, and It came Just as two stalwart polioemen from headquarters hurried in. Jimmy began to explain the situation to them as ho opened tho envelope, but whon he read tho dispatch his jaw droppod in a way that threatened to rend his countonancc in twain. This was tho editor's answor: "Don't want It. Must bo mistaken. Drano in custody hero. Captured last night."

Tbo policomen growled and poked fun at tho reporter, but Jimmy was so suro that ho was right, and arguod so earnestly that thoy consented to stay awhile and tako a look at tho alloged Lawronoo Drano.

Meantimo tbo victim of this pursuit had scanned tho register of tho Beaver House on tbo dates just subsequent to tho theft of his clothes and belongings. At a timo that corresponded exactly with tho tramp's story he was horrified to find this on try: "Mr. and Mrs. L. Drane, Kansas City."

Ue learned that "Mrs. Drane" was in and sent up to her a oard with his own namo scrawled upon it. In duo time he was ushered to tbo door of tho best room In tho house. Ho knocked and entored at once.

A ricbly-drossod young woman ran quiokly across tho room crying: "Whero havo you boon? and why—'

Sho stopped, gavo a faint scroam and sank Into a chair, staring at Lawrence in bewilderment. On his part he folt an Immense relief to find that the young woman was not Bessio and bore no resemblanoo to her except in general figure. "Madam," ho said, "you will pardon this intrusion when I toll you that I am Lawronco Drano, of Kansas City. I think we havo both boon imposed upon and between us wo may bo able to sot matters right." "I don't undorstand you," replied "Mrs. Drano," "but you can sit down."

Mr. Drano compiled and after a pause began: "You seem to bear my namo, madam, •but I am quito oortain that you havo no right to it You seo, a fellow Btolo my clothes and monoy somo days ago and procoodod to masquorade around the country nndor my namo, bringing mo into all kinds of troublo. I know ho camo to Now naven, for ho oolloctod monoy bore in my namo."

Mr. Drano hesitated. "Mrs. Drano" was dreadfully pale and ho dlslikod boyond measure to explain to her that hor marriage was invalid and that oven woro it genuine sho had been tricked by a penniless adventurer and criminal. "I didn't havo nothing to do with It

remarked the young woman, faintly. This language struck Lawrenco strange, coming from a wealthy woman, but her ignoninco only madohor situation tho more pi liable. "I hare no cjue.stion," ho hastened to say. "that you havo acted with tho utmost Innoeeneo in the matter, and it is exceedingly painful for mo to toll you that your husband's namo is not Drane. and that he is not tho wealthy man he represented himself to IKS." ••-Mrs. Drane" was greatly agitated, and in order not further to embarrass her Lawrence nsn ami walked across tho room to a window. A big steamer trunk had leon placcd thcro. It was plastered all over with customs slips of various countries, and conspicuous among thorn was a tag snob as: is used ILY passengers who wish to have their

MRS. BSSRIE lLv»I_ura, BUFFALO. N. Y., AMERICA.

FIEST CADIS, NO. 1S7. To ere wore more words than these, but tho name and address of tho owner were enough to startle him and throw a great light on tho situation. This "Mrs. Drano" must bo tho son-ant who had run away with his Bossio's property! What a complication! Sho believed the rascally tramp to be rich: ho believed hor to bo tho possessor of thirteen millions: thoy had married. Waat an awakening for each!

This discovery, however, hail to bo verified, nr.d tho dishonest young woman who hud brought llossie llarland so much trouble must bo punished for it. Luwrenoo felt that he must movo with exceeding caution. He turned, harlly certain as to whateourso he c.hould ta' o, when tho young woman, blushing fitfully and with quivering voice, said:

My husband's namo ain't Drano at all, at loaat lie said it wasn't. I was truly married to him right in this town, and I can prove it. If you know whero ho is-"

IIo's locked up in New York," explained Lawrenco as she paused. Tho young woman's eyes flashed, almost joyously, Mr. Drano thought, and ho wondered at it. Sho bocamo suddenly very grave and oontinued:

I bopo you won't bo mean with mo. If you will go with mo to tho minister that married us, I can provo what I say, and p'r'aps ho'll holp us." "I fail to see what good that will do," said Lawrenco. 'But want you to know that I was really married," persisted tho young woman. "Then I'll toll you all how It bapp^-.'d, if you won't get mo into trouble. "I will agree not to got you into troublo," repliod Lawronco, "If you will five mo tho correct address of Mrs. Bessio Harland, and If you will also roturn hor property to hor."

This blunt request camo protty near leaving a fainting woman on Mr. Drano's hands. Her blushes left her faco and she oollapsed into tho chair llko a limp rag. Lawrenco hastenod to thrust various bottles of liquids that he saw on a mantel Into &er hands, and bo fanned her vigorously with his hat.

It was somo time before sho recovered sufficiently to accuse 1x1m of doslring to play some trick upon her. Ho protested that such was not his Intention and urged hor to bo calm, promising to go at once to tho clergyman's if aho would write tho desired address. This she finally did and then retired to dross for tho street. Wbilo be was waiting Lawronoo wondorod that she bad not made particular Inquiries about her husband, and his conclusion was that she oared nothlngjfor him, hor only desire being to possess his supposed wealth.

When at last they started down-stairs, tho young woman thrust her hand into

"HE DOBS LOOK LIKE A LUNATIC."

his arm and leaned hoavlly upon him, saying: "I am so upsot by thia.'"

Lawronoo gallantly undertook tbo burdon, and as they passed through the offloG ho saw his acquaintance, Jimmy, the reporter, watching him narrowly. Two policomen were there, too, and as ho passed them ho heard ono of thom Bay: "Ho does look like a confounded lunatic, for a fact."

CHAPTER X.

At all seasonable hours tho streets of New Haven are full of pretty girls. Thoy are merry girls, too, who like to laugh whon thoro's any thing funny in sight. Drano, with tho bogus Mrs. Drano upon his arm, passed somo thoirsands of them, or at least ho oould havo sworn that ho did, and they all looked out of tho oornors of their eyes, and grinned with tho corners of thoir mouths.

It is harrowing to bo tho object of thia kind of attention. It suggests tho possibility of a practical jokor's placard on ono's back, or a black mark alongside one's nose. Drane investigated tho subjoot as well as ho could by fooling stealthily up and down his baok, and using his handkerchief with great vigor. But:for tho lifo of him ho couldn't find any thing calculated to creato so much innooont amusement. "I suppose 1 look funny without my mustache," ho thought, "but hang me If I should expect peoplo to notice it who never saw mo lcforo."

Then ho glanocd down upon his companion, and behold upon her oountonanoo an expression which atonco explained tbo situation. Sho lookod as no woman over does except whon she's either soa sick or in lovo. A honeymoon smile of tho most aggravated typo transformed her rathor oomoly faco Into tho familiar mask of imbocility and not evon tho blank stare with which ho met her upturned eyes, moved her to modtfy a single detail of her ridioulous griroaoo. "Sho must bo crazy, too," ho thought, •with a shudder unconsciously molding the phrase of his idea to fit tho popular judgment regarding his own mental condition. "Poor girl her disappointment has turned her brain."

Sho steered him into a Bido street and just as he was trying to think of a delicato way in which ho could urgo hor to discontinue looking at him in that disquieting fashion, 6ho paused before a nutil«

This is tae minister's liouso, the Uov Mr. Knowlos, tho man who married us, you know."

There was a painful ambiguity about her words which porplexod Drano to such an extent that a sorvant had ushered thorn handily into tho good pastor's study boforo ho reoovered his solf-pos-Goeslon.

A vonarablo gentleman rose from a largo chaii', and grooted them with courtosy.

You remember mo, don't you?" said tho girl, before Drano oould opon his mouth. "I'm Nellie Blake, or I was bofaro you man-led me to Mr. Drano, last Tuesday."

Sho simpei-od In a most distressing way and linked up at Drano. Ho felt bis hair stirring at tho roots, for ho Baw now that li:r.icy was tho only explanation of the girl's conduct. "I ought to explain—" ho began.

Hut the ir.'nistor stopped him with a wavoof the hand. "No \\pi nation is required, Mr. Drano." said ho. "I remember you perfectly, tr.-.ii do trust that nothing has happened in tills short space to mar tho happiness which I sincerely wished you when I made you one..-' "But my dear sir—" cried Drane, in horror. Nollio interrupted him with a giggle"You seo. sir, it isn't really much of any thing," she said, "and perhaps wo ought not to havo bothered you about It but tho truth is I've lost the certificate you gave mo. I'm just as stupid as 1 can be, but I can't help it." "Oh! If that Is all—" "But it isn't all. It Isn't half of it," Drano exclaimed. "The truth is—" "Now, you naughty boy," cricd Nollie, putting hor hand playfully ovor his mouth, "I shan't lot you go on this way." "Somo trlflingdisagroomc nt,"said the Rev. Mr. Knowlos, smiling good-natured-ly. "1 have no doubt that it can bo repaired as easily as tho loss of the certificate." "Sir," said Drano, breaking loose from tho restraining hand, "I assure you that it is your duty to—" "And I assure you, sir," said tho old clergyman, with dignity, "that it la your duty, as It is your privilego, and should le your delight, to be ever kind, forbearing and gontlo with tho woman who has given you tbo honest affootion of hor heart, and whoso hand I joined with yours In this very room. Look at her now."

Nollio had fallen upon a sofa and was sobbing with industrious vigor. "You have brought tours to hor eyes." Nollio pretended to wring out hor handkerchief. "She might faint with tho disappointment at your very feet!"

Nollio logan to faint with a rigid determination which alarmed Drano, and called forth more remonstrances from tho kind-hearted old man. Together they made her comfortablo upon tho sofa and fanned her till there was a small cyclone in tho study. When sho was quiet Drano saw his opportunity, and, in a voico as calm as ho could make it, ho said: "My dear 6lr,you are wholly mistakon In this matter. I am not tho man who married this young woman, and I havo never had the pleasure of soeing elthor hor or yourself boforo to-day. "Do you mean to say that she doesn't know her own husband?" askod tho reverend gentleman, with great surprise. "This is preposterous." "Sho knows perfectly well that I am not her husband," said Drano. "For somo purposo of hor own she has lured mo horo. and has claimed me before you, and you havo protended to recognize me. But for the honesty thatl road in your face, air, I should bo tempted to say that this was all a groat conspiracy to entrap mo." "Young man," said Uov. Mr. Knowles, with doop soverlty, "l never forgot a face. 1 knew you by your nocktio!"

It was the ono articlo of consplcuoun apparol which ho had retained since the first exebango with the tramp in the Turkish bath, no cursed it in his soul. "But look at me more closely look Into my face!" ho exclaimed.

Rev. Mr. Knowles pulled a pair of spectacles down from his forehead and approached Drane with a grim do termination to iu*ko sure of him written all ovor his usually bonign eoun tenance. Drano lifted up his head and looked straight at the glittering gold rims of tho glasses. Ilo felt cortain that ho should not fail of mi acquittal if onco ho was properly inspected.

But Rov. Mr. Knowles tiado an error whioh is alarmingly common in cases whore personal identity is at issuo. Ho fixed his gaze rigidly on tho on« thing which had previously misled him—the noalctio—and to all intents and purposes his scrutiny went no further. And oh, how ho did Identify that necktie, How ho reached In and pulled its secret outl How dead certain, bow immovably unutterably positive ho was, when ho raised his eyes from it nnd pushed up his glasses again, that that was tbo veritable nccktio with which he had forever united tho fato of Miss Nellie Blake. Then lie glanced at Drane' faco with his unassisted oyos Baw simply a physiognomy with tho customary number of features on it, and was convinced. "I was not mistakon," said bo, "and I am at a loss to understand your conduct"

It takes a really good man to bo fixed in error: but doubt is tho eternal portion of t"ho unrogonorate. Tho Uov. Mr. Knowlos was more certain that he had married Drano, than Drane was that he hadn't "Why," continued Mr. Knowles, "if It was your intontion to cast this woman off (lid you bring her hero where your iniquity was almost certain to trans-, piro?" "I didn't bring her here," said Drano, despondingly, "she brought mo." "So I supposed so I supposed, young man," and tho Uov. Mr. Knowles frowned In groat disapprobation, "but now that you are horo let mo exhort you to do your whole duty. What reason you have for denying your wife I do not know. Havo you any thing to say against her character?"

Heaven forbid," said Drane, hastily. "That is a subjoot on whioh I never say any thing." "You havo tho instincts of a gentloman," tho old clorgyman said, slowly.

I notioed that whon you wore horo bo-

fore especially then, I may add, for your behavior to-day has loft much to bo desired."

I atn greatly indebted to tho abominable tramp who personated mo on that occasion," exclaimed Drano, with bitter emphasis, "and I regret that his reputation should suffer during my temporary use of my own namo." "Como, come," said tho gonial pastor, cheerfully "let's have no more hard words. Como, Nollio, give your hand to your husband once more In my preeonco, and start anow on what I trust will bo a happy lifo together."

Nollio rose with groat alacrity and advanced to Drane, who stood In sullon dismay, wondorlng what tho woman's objeot was and how far sho would allow tho ridiculous garoo to procoed.

Meanwhilo Rov. Sir. Knowlos had shifted his s]ectaclos from hi. f. roltMtd to the end of his nose, and he beamed more benignly ovor them than under them If possiblo.

I am an old man,"said ho, "and you must pardon my interference in tho affairs of the young. 1 am not yet clear as to what has brought you to mo for a second time but lot us say It is Frovidonoo—" and ho glanced reverently upward, tho ono direction in which the good man's sight had novor failed him. "I entreat you, my son, bo a man," ho continued, "and loavo this strango and ovil courso for tho bettor way."

Drano was torn by many conflicting emotions. Tho old clergyman's manner was kind that Drano oould havo kissed his vonorablo hand, and his error was so annoying that Drano longed to broak his venerable nock. "My dear ho was going to say "my dear sir," but Mr. Knowlos lot him got no further than tho adjoctivo. Do spread his hands over tho pair, In tbo familiar attltudo, and Nollio, taking tbo hint foil upon Drano's nock. Ilis utter inability to struggle against circumstancos led him absolutely to tears and tho Rev. Mr. Knowles, taking out a largo handkorchiof, -cried softly in unison.

They woro all so much oooupiod that thoy did not hoar tho door-boll, nor bad their attitudes changed by a hair'sbroadth when tho door oponod and Mrs. Bessie Harland, of Buffalo, N. Y., walked in. Drano saw hor out uf the corners of his oyos, and ho tried hastily to shako Nellie's arms from around his neck, but they woro clasped bard and fast and nothing could loosen tbem. Bessio gavo a littlo sigh which was almost a sol), and sank upon tbo sofa. There were first-rato prospects of a genuine faint now, and Drano's agony was proportionately incroasod.

At tho sound of bor lato mistress' Bob, Nollio turnod hor head,

But Bessio paid littlo attention to bis words. Sho roso unsteadily from tho sofa, threw up her boad with a pitiful littlo attompt at dignity and said: "Mr. Drano, I camo to this city because I believed that you woro 111 and In trouble, and I hoped to holp you as you onco helped mo. A young man, whom I bolievo to be a ropresontatlvo of tho press, directed mo to this house. That explains my presence but, of courso, 1 can stay no longer. 1 must say goodbye." "There, sir didn't I toll you your namo was Drano!" exclaimed Rev. Mr. Knowles. who had boon fairly bursting with a desire to say it since l^ossio's first word had boon uttered. "Bossie—Mrs. llarland!"cried Drane, choking with lovo, rago and other omotions which afflict tho young, "I swoar to you that this is all a hideous mistake. I havo novor noon this woman before today, and I don't care to seo hor again till tbo day of judgment on which occasion may sho escape hor deserts! Sho was hanging round my nock for some insano purposo of hor own and this gentleman"—and Drano softenod his voico and bowod to Mr. Knowlos—"persists that ho married us." "MarriedI" criod Bessio, and she sank back again upon tho sofa. "But ho didn't you know," criod Drano, hastening toward her. "IIo's noar-sighted or something, and sho really married my nocktio—oh, givo mv word, I don know what I'm saying, but I I— Bessie, I love you, God knows, and every heat of my heart has neon faithful to you sinco my eyes first rested on your face. May "Sir!" cried Rov. Mr. Knowles, in voioo of thundor. "This is more than 1 can ponnit Will you make lovo to another woman lx'foro your wife's eyes you young villain?"

But this rebuke fell unbooded, foi Drano's unexpected declaration had proven too much for Bessie's nerves already deeply shaken, and sho had fallen into a faintnoss, as deep, to all appearances, as death itself. Drano sprang forward to her sido, and Rev. Mr Knowles puttered along after him. Nellie, too, was moved by the sight of her former mistress' pallid faco, and sho bid fair to bo of more real use thar.

Drane turnod to oonfront Jimmy and the two policomen. [TO BB CONTTNtTED.

There's a corset that isn't a corset, a waist with straps for the shoulders and rows of buttons to button on skirts and stocking supporters and so forth—the Ball Waist —and that's about the whole of it. No you can put it in the washtub—no metal in it or on it.

It is worth your seeing, if for noihing but how to sew on buttons-to button easy and never come off, and how to make buttonholes wear forever.

Women differ in their ways of thinking and dressing as well as in other ways. This waist is for women whose minds are made up that they won't wear corsets.

There's much to be said on both sides but did you ever hear of a woman who hadn't made up her mind in some way? and is there any possible use in trying to get her to change it She will and she will or she won't and she won't.

You can get the Ball Waist and wear it a week or two or three and, if you don't want it, take it back to ihe store and get your money
