BY MABEL HERBERT URNER. It was Sunday. The first warm sunshiny Spring Sunday. But if one is lonely and unhappy the very radiance of a day like this seems only to add depression. Since Warren had been away Helen had dreaded the Sundays most of all. Each one had seemed more dreary and desolate than the last. And now as she wanders restlessly around the apartment ;;he wondered how she could get through this day. It had been over a week now since she had heard from Warren not one word since her letter about the roomer. She was anxiously waiting for every mail. On Sundays one of the elevator boys always went to the post office, but today there had been only a circular for her. And there would be no other mail until morning. She had glanced through the Sunday papers but was too restless to read. Finally she went in and got out her mending basket. Surely it was no worse to sew on Sunday than to do anything else, and the time would drag less heavily if she was at work. A little petticoat of Winifred's and some stockings were already in the basket. These she mended and then got out her blue serge skirt which needed fresh braid around the bottom. Tt was so warm that she- raised the window beside hr, and the soft Spring air blew in the curtains through which she caught glimpses of the street below. The bright day had brought, out many afternoon strollers. The silk hats and frocks and coats of the men. the spring millinery of the women, gay with flowers and bright colored straw, the occasional bunch of violets it. was all a part of the atmosphere of a Sunday afternoon in Spring. DESOLATE THOUGHTS. No one seemed alone they were always in couples or groups of three or tour. Helen looked down at this leisurely wcll-dreseed Sunday throng and more than ever the felt her desolation. .lust then there passed an athletic looking man with a slender woman beside him and a little girl in white running on in front. There was something in the carriage of the man that reminded her of Warren, and the woman was strangely like herself. And yet what a difference! For even as they arm at the street crossing, and his very gesture was one of love and protection, while the woman looked up and laughed happily. It was only a passing picture, but it was so full of the joy of companionship that Helen turned from the window with the old aching lump in her threat. She thought of the look of contentment on the woman's face as the pride of possession in the man's. How long had it been since Warren had looked at her like that? What could that woman give that she could not? And why must she be here alone with the emptiness of a Sunday afternoon and evening before her, while other women had the joy of their husbands' love and companionship? A startling ring from the telephone in the hall. She dropped her sewing and ran eagerly to answer it. Any chance caller any interruption to her brooding thoughts would be welcome. "Mrs. Stevens is calling," announc

ed the boy. With a" hurried "Ask her to come up," Helen ran back to gather up her 6ewiug and put it away. "Moping here all alone?" asked Mrs. Stevens, as she kissed her. i "I thought so. Now put on your j things; I ve got the car down stairs. We're going for a long drive and have dinner somewhere in the country." "But, Winifred?" It's Delia's after noon off I've got no with her." "That's all arranged for," triumphantly, "brought Jennie along to take care of her she'll be up in a fnent." mo- j .Jennie was one of Mrs. Stevens's

"We thought it. was too fine a day for any one to stay indoors," as he helped her into the car and tucked the rugs about her. "Now, John drive out the road," he directed, as they started off. Helen leaned hack in the w ide leather seat with a sigh of content. Oh, it was good to be out! To get away from Hie chilled loneliness of her apartment into the warm Spring sunshine.

The sun shining on the steel rai!? recalled some vague impression of childhood. And just now there was a faint odor of burning leaves that, too, seemed part of the picture. But the bars were raised and they crossed the track and on down the road before she could place the memory. On and on they sped, the soft air blowing back their veils and bringing them varied odors of wood and fields and fresh ploughed ground. It was after 5 o'clock when they stopped at a little roadhouse for dinner, and it was quite dusk before they started back. But the ride back through the dark was to Helen as full of charm as it had been through the I origm sunngnt oi tne afternoon I It was growing cooler and Mr. Ste vens wrapped the rugs about her more e.loselv.
