BETWEEN THE HORNS OF A GREAT DILEMMA Immediately after reading Arthur's letter my mind was in a tumult, but gradually outstanding ideas impressed themselves upon me. The main fact Tvaa -that, as I feared, he suspected that I had eloped with another man. Dismissing that for a moment, the other most important truth which occurred to me was that my poor mother had learned nothing about the affair. So ••far a» she knew, I still was living happilly with Arthur in my far-away hom^, Next I realized that, through

Arthur's strange impulse, I was assured of this apartment as long as I cared to occupy it. It did not occur to me then' that I had xio means of supporting myself in it and that unless something happened I should- very soon starve to death. That fact that was borne in upon me later and its acuteness was not at all lessened because of-the delay.

But just now the main question confronted me was the one which concerned the cause of Arthur's departure. He thought thyat I had run away With another man. Back in the now .dim and seemingly distant past I remembered that I had debated that flame possibility in connection with Mr. •Gordon and that I had rejected it as an impossibility. But Arthur knew nothing of such a debate or such a decision, tin the contrary, he firmly believed now that I had eloped because of his neglect, and because I had come under the spell of another man's fascination. And he had left, the country

Jso that I might go where I pleased and* obtain a divorce on the ground of desertion.

How considerately inconsiderate men are sometimes! Here I was at this moment wanting Arthur' more than woman ever wanted man, and he had left me because he thought I didn't -want him, because he suspected that I wanted some other man more. Truly, fate, moves in a mysterious way her wonders to perfoi'm, as the poet neatly said once upon a time.

But the great question was still before me. What would I do It was easy enough to ascertain Arthur's London address by telephoning his office, and it would be easy enough to cable him to return at once and hear my explanation, but would he return? "Would it be possible for him to wipe every vestige of suspicion from His mind and come once more to regard me as his spure and virtuous wife? What proof teould I give him now other than my own unsubstantiated word? already had realized that the story of my being kidnaped was too improbable to be believed by any sane man unless it was substantiated, and how could I substantiate it unless Jane recovered? Harry Pendleton, the prinfcal actot1 in the tragedy, was dead, and Jane was in the hospital at the point of death. If she died, who would there be'to vouch for my story? With a fainting heart I realized that until

Jane was restored to consciousness there would be nothing gained by summoning Arthur home, even if I could summon him,, for the assumption that he wotild return at my behest was, after all, merely an assumption, and nothing more.

I realised then more than ever before the fact that Jane Faulkner's .testimony was the one thing which' I must have to preserve my gootl name and re-establish my happiness. Could

I ever obtain it?

He added that ohe might recover conscioumneMa at any moment, or that Mhe^might not recover it at all.

I think it was ^selfishness more than pity or gratitude, therefore, which took me to St. Luke's that afternoon, i wanted to see her or hear from' the lips of the physicians there what chance there was for her to recover. So when William had sent me a maid, and I had taken a nap, I boarded a car and started for St. Luke's, despite the fact that my limbs barely were able to support me.

What I learned was not encouraging. Jane still was unconscious, and seemed likely lo remain so indefinitely, 'they said. She had been shot in the head, and, although the brain had not been pierced, it was certainly affected by the bullet, and the outcome would de

pend largely upon chance,, a gravefaced doctor told me He added that she might recover consciousness at any moment,, or that she might not recover at all. Another possibility, he said, was that she'might live and-yet know nothing of her past life. "There ig a third contingency," he added solemnly, and I know he meant that she might not recover at all.

I left my name- and address, with instructions that they notify me the moment Jane appeard to be rational, and then went home to battle once more with' the problems which confronted me.

Ice is to be peddled along the rural routes, but whether that will be a success or not depends how kindly the farmers take to the project. What the prioe of ice will be when the Saloons go out of business is another question that will be answered by a probable Increase.
