Ada Clarke lived in an humble home perched on the edge of a mountain crag. Here in -the forests she had lived since babyhood, never seeing anything but the birds sailing through the sky, or watching the smoke of the long trains that crawled through the valley below. Now Ada was a big girl of 10, and she thought she would like to see something of the world. Once in the summer she had walked miles down the steep path to sell a few berries at the hotel, and the sights she saw were ever with her in her dreams. She with her bare feet and sunbonnet stood speechless watching what seemed to her eyes to be a fairyland for there in a huge room with a shining floor were crowds dancing to the most exquisite music. Ada, poor little Ada, thought it was heaven on which
she was looking. For she never im-

personality, felt for once at a loss as to how to commence his questioning. But the girl herself, guileless, gave him a lead by beginning, quite of her own accord, to talk of her early life. "It seems so strange," she remarked, confidingly, "to have been so completely alone all of my life except for Daddy, of course." "You have no brothers or sisters. Miss Brunell?" asked the detective. "None and I never knew my mother. She died when I was born." Morrow sighed, and involuntarily his hand reached forward in an expression of complete sympathy. More Tomorrow.

its groves and gardens. Then suddenly at her feet came a faint sound of "Baa! baa!" Ada looked over the corner of the fence. There lay a sheep exhausted, while over it stood shivering two tiny lambs. "You poor little darlings!" exclaimed the girl as she dropped on her knees. "Your mother is dying and you will die, too, here in the snow and wind."- Even as she spoke the mother sheep breathed its last. "I will take you home with me," exclaimed Ada; "your mother is dead. We have enough milk and I know I cau raise you to be nice, big sheep." Wrapping the tiny creatures up in the heavy shawl she wore over her head, Ada struggled up the mounain. the exercise keeping her warm. Reaching home, she showed her mother the little lambs that sooi frisked around the fire. They drank eagerly the warm milk from a bottle Ada fixed, then lay
Those are fine sheep, and if I raise them, I will keep them for pets." "But how about feeding them?" asked the mother "We haven't much milk now." "I will give them my share while they are small," replied Ada, "and byJune they can eat grass. Maybe if I pick a lot of berries and help Mr. Edmonds gather in his hay he will give enough to carry them through the winter of next year. Anyway, I mean to keep the poor, little things as long as I have a bite myself." The weather grew warmer and the grass came out. Every day the lambs seemed to look prettier, but the strange thing about them was that their wool was curly. They did not look like any other sheep that the family had ever seen, but their wool was glossy and so soft that Ada thought it the most beautiful she had ever seen. One day the father fell and broke his leg. Money ran out and there was little coming in, as Ada alone could work. "I will have to sell my two sheep." she said to herself with tears in her eyes. "The postmaster told me that that rich Mr. Beverly was fond of fancy ones, so I will call them up when I go for the mail tomorrow. How can I live without my pretty lambs? But we must have money for food," and the poor Ada went to sleep that night in tears at the thought of parting from the Iambs that lay over in the warm corner like balls of snow. Tomorrow they must leave her forever. Tomorrow's story "Ada's Stray Lambs." Part II.

Taking up the soaking bath mat, she laid down a heavy bath towel, put away his shaving' things and took his pajamas from off the doorknob.

"We only had one grapefruit. Carrie'll Ihink this is a new way Of serving them." "Well, why don't she come to her breakfast? She'll have to hustle if she makes that 9:10." "You're going with her to the station? Oh, dear, you must! It's right on your way and it looks so bad to let her go alone." The very aloofness that existed between Warren's sister and herself made Helen over anxious to show her every possible courtesy. When Carrip finally appeared she was dressed even to her hat. Her hair which she always wore in a low-coiled braid, was now combed up under her narrow-brimmed hat, and the effect was severely becoming. "Have I kept you waiting?" as she took her place at the table. "It's so hard to do my hair without a net." "You'll have to hurry if we make that 9:10," observed Warren. "Jove this stuff's sour! Where's the sugar?" Anna had forgotten to sweeten the grapefruit concoction, and Helen, with an embarrassed flush, rang for the pulverized sugar. But for once Carrie seemed unconscious of what she was eating. Her keen glance was not scrutinizing either the table or its appointments. She w. s plainly abstracted and worried.

The color faded slowly from Julia's face as she listened, but she forced herself to smile bravely. Seeing that smile, and appreciating that it concealed either a great hurt or a great fear, Kelley Delaine felt sweep over him a wave of emotion that had ln it more of love than of pity. How fine she was how plucky, and what a thoroughbred! But his face remained absolutely unmoved. "Your explanation was really unnecessary, Mr. Somerdyke," Julia said

Helen watched her with puzzled concern. Something had happened. Carrie was wholly unlike herself. "WThat's that cat got?" demanded Warren, raising the cloth, to glance unde the table.
