CHAPTER III. PATTE*.

The day came when Baby Jacqueline awoke quite thoroughly, and raised herself slowly but surely to a sitting posture.

How many days bad gone past her, like flying shadows on a wall, which she had seen with half-shut eyes and hated, they only bioaght her consciousness of pain!

But she now felt once moxemlstrees of herself. She rubbed her Anger* can tioo&ly down the arm and shoulder she peeped under the bandages, and twisted about to test her sensations.

You're all right," decided Baby Jae queline, complacently, addressing her shoulder, "you're out of the lion's jaws now! How long have yon been achin" and achin' end gettin' crunched up fresh every night to keep mo awake, bey? Three weeks, you little wretch for Patten said so yesterday! That's pretty way to serve Baby Jacqueline when she's took the best care of you that she ever could these fifteen vears and more. But, poor thing!" with turn of her mood she fell a-pitying the healing flesh and a-kisBlng the arm which had been broken, in the half-hu-morous, half-pathetic fashion her craving but uncaressed life had taught her.

She won't scold this little wing, for it shouldered the weight of the fall, and Haved Baby Jacqueline's neck—it did I"

Pushing her hair from her face she looked around. She felt almost well and Htrong.

The room had grown very familiar. It was .one room of a "flat" which the sculptor rented in a great brick block. He had selected an eyrie for the nest of his plans, for the sky was the next "flat" above him nevertheless even up this niry height the din of Babel followed Baoy Jacqueline could bear New York's morning roar, and she—whose life had been nomadic, who was accustomed to being stared at and to seeing ber name blazoned on walls—felt a keen thrill of Joy at being so wrapped in and hidden. Thero WHS a woman in her tumbler's body. She folt as if the circus-go-ing public were surging around her stronghold and demanding next porformance, and she shook a round (1st In tho air over their imaginary heads.

The-room was bald and high, containing only Jacqueline's bed, few toilot conveniences, and a row of liniment and cordial bottles. It had been hastily pre-

ared fur her tho evening of her a Barnliardt's old laundress, who was likewise his Janitress. Here the fever had Its way with her until her strong young bones triumphed and reknlt themselves and here Patten stood faithfully by her, cooling her in the first stage, restraining her impatience in the second, and toasting unlimited loaves of "bread for her in the convalescent and ravenous stage.

Barnhurdt often looked in upon his charge aad directed her treatment. Ono night, Indeed, whon her shoulder ached Horoly, and Putten found this nurseling qui ton tiger, he sat on the side of tho child's bed and supported her while magnetizing the pain oy slow, soothing

£otter,of

asses his hand. But as she grew ho left her more and more to Patten care, and went back closer to bis work.

Tho old Janltress wan not a woman modelled after the Medicean Venus nud such charms as might onco have boen hers had long since departed. The ifceo she bent over Baby Jacqueline's bed was as full of lines as a railroad map, and her tongue was slow and unsteady, like a fog-bell sounding faintly through the mist of her sensos for though poor Patten was faithful and affectionate, Nature had stamped her as ono of those perpetual children whom tho Stots tenderly call "inuocents." But however weak in mind she was, her body and her kindliness wore strong, and Jacqueline grew very fond of the good apparition that often stood by her at night, and was sure in any case to dawn ujpon her with the morniug.

She thrust her bare feet out upon the bare floor, and wa§ about to oelehrate her recovery by turning a ooo-armed

handspring when tho door opened from the hall, admitting an old woman in ftided calico and ragged blaokallk hood, who carried on her arm a basket which clung to all her wanderings as inqvltablv MI her shadow.

Surprised by the new and independent attitude of her patient, this old woman paused, crossed her dark bony hands upon her stomach, and twinkled through her wrinkles with a pair of small black eyes.

H'lo, Patten 1" hailed Jacqueline. "Yon sm-s-iwrmatrf shllel" articulated Patten. "Be you go-go!n' stay up

^*^Just!" replied Jacqueline with omphssts. "You don't keep me in that bed any longer V*

Pattou, who was always confused by revolutions in her duUew, put down her basket, and began to flutter and fold her dark hand*, alternately smiling with delight over tho animation of her charge, and puckering her grooved ffcee with grotesque perplexity over the requirements of an ex-invalid.

As the bed offered the only visible opening to tier exertions, she edited upon it, and begun to worry the mat* tress and scatter the bed-clothing.

What can I put on, Patten?" inquired Jacqu-line, searching the room and finding no vwitlge of wardrobe in it. «.k—i—iaw me!" stammered Patten, without the least emotion In her tones, given up the question as she gave up all the connundrums of llfis "what cao shlle put/***?"

Didn't I have any clothes with mat I forget." No close 11 me,** responded Patten blankly, looking over the haw room from corner to corner and from celling to floor "W on\v two g-g-gownds •at I borr'd Mis' Johnsoini vemh w-w-w«ek about!"

stood befogged, not perceiving

which way to steer. But as the necessity of clothing her patient grew upon her mind, and as her repeated offers of articles from hero wn andBarnhardt's wardrobe, were emphatically scouted, she was by degress brought to trim her sails for tho novel cruise of shopping.

But s-s-seema a pity," urged Patten, coming back from the door after once starting, smend vd' money when 'ara's mv new, aud Musser ye linen coat's liefs not

'Are's Mis' Johnson," she continued, in spite of Jacqueline's urging and tugging at her arm and her basket, "she has new poUonay—tnade fo' she I Woman served it—fo' Mia' Johnson I A pollonay she repeated deferential ly, fixing Impressive owl-like eyes on Jacqueline, who put her into the passago and closed the door.

Yet, being warm with her subject, the reduction or her audience to one individual—and that individual herself—did not prevent her from descanting on the glories of Miss Johnson's pollonay down the entire five flights of stairs.

For woman's raling passion was strong in Patten's intollectual death! She very imperfectly understood Jacquellno's directions, and the directions themselves were inexperienced and vague.

So, with basket on arm and bills in fist, she roamed up and down those marts where Hebrews dispense readymade clothing to seedy mankind or she went into palatial stores and roused the antipathy of lady-like young men, and distracted respectable small milliners by handling their wares ovor and over again with critical dissatisfaction.

However, the blind fates so directed her that sue brought home to Jacqueline a girl's sailor dress of navy blue flannel, a pair of walking boots, and a very broau brimmed hat, with underwear so incongruous that the child shouted aloud.

That this costume was hardly in sympathy with llesh subjected to early sum-, mer heats struck Jacqueline forcibly. But, inasmuch as her limited wardrobo gave hor no choice, she let Patten put it on her, and was herself so unsophisticated in matters pertaining to toilet as to enjoy the eflect of this dark, trim suit, below which her boots just suggested themselves, and above which her head appeared goldenly, like a daffodil cleaving the spring loam.

But Mis' Johnson s-s-aAc had a pollonay" mourned tho old janitress discontentedly, "made! All uoublo-brast' ox-eyed sllv' buttons made fo' sho by wouiun all over box-platin' 1"

The girl put her cured arm around Patten neck, knocking the ragged silk hood awry. "You dear old soul!" sho impressed on the innocent's senses with an affectionate hug. "Here's some o' the money that was in tho belt—fifteen dollars— and it's for you, with mv love. Was I very tronblesomee, and aid I scold, in the'fevor?" "Scold T" shrilled Patten, holding the bills off to twinkle at them with unconcealed delight: "s-a-scold? Oh, no-you nev' scold 1 You on'y kick and bite!"

Was I so very, very hateful cried Jacqueline, penitently. "And did I hurt Charlie, too 7"

Patten shook her head. Was'n' no Charlie round. On'y me and Museer Barnhardt."

But Cbarllo took care of me some," urged Jacqueline. "1 do remember." No Charlie't all 1" retorted Patten.

But he brought me here!" 'At's Musser Barnhardt. He in 'at big room," pointing to a high door which shut up uuknown scenes. "His work-room, "at. Nabble-dustand white innd ail ove' at room, but bo nev' let clean np."

With the daring eagerness of a second Fatima, Jacqueline went and lifted the iron latch.

CHAPTER IV.

A WORKSHOP AND

HKRMIT'T DKJft

The room into which Jaoquellne ventured was long and high, and bad deepset windows. There was scarcely any furniture In It, except a bright-colored rug and an arm-chair one or two exquisite pictures tinted the vast blank walla there was one recess curtained with crimson, and another recess containing ahelvea of hooka. Models of arms and lega and small studies In plaster were grouped carelessly in various plaesa. But, giving small heed to his surroundings, she hastened to reoogniise the master of the place, who stood In the centre of his workshop busily shaping something on his table.

The sculptor who is poor cannot Indulge his imagination and his bands tm ideals of his fancy to the exclusion of other work. He will fashion little ornaments, freeae the pose of a head or an arm, and lie in wait with various cunning da vices to catch the eye and the dollar of small art patrons, He must keep Ida pot boiling, and these petty wonca are Ms "potboilers." Or one might •call them oar-«trokea, by means of which he keeps out of the way of big paddle-whsela while his eyes are on distant atghta.

Barnhardt wore a crimson gown which warmed his pale fee* like flame. It girdled about the waist, and tooksd up faaeifail* oat of hla way, though It bore marks or hits work, aa likewise did his trousers. His short crop etf hair waa tumbled, and he poshed one ©onUtrtplative hand through it, aad stepped back, holding his toots in the other hand to Me the effect he had just prod need, as Jaetgueliae shnt the great Iron-latched door with a bang.

Barnhardt was bending all the power of his mind on another object than the ono in hand, and her words went past his ear, while be continued modelling.

You've boen good to me," she added, folding her hands behind her, and dividing her attention between him and his employment. "I guess there's enough monoy left in the belt to pay fbr stay in' here. But do you know or anythin' I kin do to git some more?"

The sculptor smiled slowly, while bis charge earnestly put this question. Her little body was poised in an attitude both deferential and independent. He

The wprld is fall of worlds. A man wno exhausts one life may go on to another and yet to another till he understands that successions of experiences is what the word ETERNITY implies. No one would commit suicide—even in the greatest extremity—if he were able, when the mania is upon him, to consider his own complexity and adaptability. The world is full of worlds. This young girl, who had lived only in physical hardship and observation of the world from a trapeze staudpoint, now perceived for the first time in her existence that there was a world of art. She hushed herself and forgot abput bread and butter and the circus.

The figure Barnhardt was modeling was yet in its first stages, and various finished studies around the room proved more attractive. Jacqueline tip-toed hero and there to look at them.

When she came to the crimson curtains, she boldly pressed herself under into the niche they covered, and here, in a wine-red light, she found a wonderful woman growing out of whito clay. The figure was life-size and the shape childlike she was half kneeling, half fklling the bands were clasped and the arms extended downward in two rigid lines. Jacqueline, who saw ignorantly, could have criticised the figure, had not her attention been kept by the face—a fafco terrified, beautiful, despairing, in-fant-like and full of love a wonderful contradictory, living face, with waves of hair falling back from it and tho pulses in its throat swelling.

Some one says if wo wish to read other people's minds we can do so by putting ourselves in their manners. Perhaps it was tho desire of reading be clay woman's riddle which at once impelled Jacqueline to drop before the pedestal and inntato her pose.

Barnhardt did not notice where his charge strayed, and ho worked on busily till a sounding succession of knocks on the passago aoor indicated to his preoccupied head and non-preoccu-

Kledbreakfast

stomach that Patten had arranged is from the restaurant, and desired that he would immediately come and partake of it.

Before answering the summons, however, ho went and lifted tho crimson curtains to indulge in his usual morning contemplation ofhis darling, and started at sight of the double study!

Even her drapery did hot destroy Jacqueline's likeness to tho figure. Her attitude expressed more of the abandon of sorrow, and Barnhardt instantly caught

Sico

raceful hints for his work. But her was exactly like the clay face—colorless, updrawn, intense, round-featur ed, but old with the sudden age of despair.

What makes her feel this a-away?" inquired the young gymnast, turning her head after a moment more of indulgence in the pom. "She wasn't no circus performer, was she?"

In one sense she was—yes. She took the 'flying leap!' What do you think of her?"

She's splendid. Oh. but she never ought to have tried It with a sheet,wrappea round her that way 1 It's a wonder dtte hadn't broke her neck—she's fell, hasn't she?"

Her neck escaped, bnt her heart waa broken." said Barnhardt. "Come, now. Patten is ponndlng the door again. Sho has breakfast spread out for us."

I wish you would tell me about her," said Jacqueline, turning her head wistfully toward tho figure. "What show did she perfonn In—and—Is she alive now

She made her debut In tho Theater Royal and ended her career in the Olympic," quiiaxsd Bernhardt. "And she's aa much alive aa anybody who Uvea In story. "She'a very mucA alive to

"I don't understand,** said Jacqueline, rising to her feet. "Waa there a real woman that you made this Image look like, or—Is It—Just a woman out of a story?"

Just a woman oat of a story," replied the sculptor, leading hla charge away, "and her name Is Psyche. If you eat a great deal of beefsteak for yoor breakfast perhaps I will tell you all about her,"

On the opposite side of the hall waa a eulte of rooms which Bernhardt devoted to

the

ordinary usee of life. He opened a door into the first of tbeae, disclosing an apartmect like hla studio in proportions, but very different from that in its appointments. This room waa like a sunny parior a fanciful arch divided It In the centre lounging chain, sofas, subdued light, and a hundred odd ornaments and curiosities which the artist

ng. Her present drapery did not alter tho impression she msde on him in her tumbler's suit. She waa a tall baby standing up and puckering her brows before the realities of life!

We'll talk about employment for you by and by," he replied. Jacqueline was reassured bv this answer, and unbending her mind, began to watch the object growing under his band.

mself. No carpet covered the floor, Barnhardt had a hatted of evcry-

wary brush, rubbed tho marble, and ahook the rugs occasionally, it required no other duty.

In that end of it which th# arch half

table walled fair the master of thepiaoe. Patten stood beaide iV wfiUi heir hood turned baftk agd pinned Jlghtly eround, her withered jawa in a style calculated to give her eyes fuU soope for perceiving all the wants ql. those she served, but at the same ^psipjlhut up her ears from hearing commands. This proved no in convenience, however, for tbesoulptor was inclined to eat his meals in silence, agd to give few orders, except the final one, which stte drttlsfstibod withqut speech—te call the restaurant waiter, and send the servioe away. When breakfasting alone, ho often leaned on his elbow to stare with shining eyes at nothing, or to draw plans on tuo tableoloth with his fork. But to-day the small, blue-clad figure opposite him, who relished the beefsteak w|th juicylips, and licked her knife with such Innocence and assiduity, disturbed the equilibrium of his thoughts, aud tilted him from his future to her own.

You were asking me awhile ago," be said, ''what employment you could find. You want to go work, do you?" "Oh, yes!" caught Jacqueline, eager lv "I told you I wasn't goln' to cost you nothin'—I'll go to work to-day."

Very industrious little girl that!" remarked Barnhardt, smiling. "But suppose wo wait a day or two until our arm and shoulder are strong enough to undertake our loads. When I brought yon away from Plugville," he continued, meant to place you in the care of my sister, and with this view I wrote to her about you while you were sick. She lives in a very pretty plaoe on the North River, and sho is willing to receive you and take caro of you if you provo to be the little girl I recommend. What do you thlnd oTViat for employment?"

Jacqueline'** face became a kaleido scope of expressions, and, as the triangle is tho ground-plan of all this Instrument's shitting wonders, so one emotion was tne ground-plan of all her facial changes. Most young girls on the threshold ot womanhood would have been dazzled by the social promises which the offer of such a home held out, and Jacqueline was not wttbout the buoyancy peculiar to her age. But she had lier outcast's experience, and through it she was inclined to sift things. The young being, nsed and abused so long, and yet able to rebound from hardship, bad got a sturdy independence which she feltlt .would be bard to resign to any hand excepting to a hand which loved her. She was groping after the "highest good," was this waif Jacqueline.

I s'pose she's a very nice lady ventured Jacqueline in a constrained voice. Very," replied Barnhardt, amused by this veiled demand for the exchange of references on the part of his stray, "Not at all such a person as I am."

Oh," murmured Jacqueline with evident disappointment. "You will then find plenty to do," continued the sculptor, "studying to improve yourself in every way. JL)o you thinkyou will like it?"

Oh—y-e-e^g, sir—it's too fine forme!" murmured Jacqueline. "But—but, Mr. Charlie," she exclaimed, rearing her bead with oourago and directness of speech, "I'd rather work very hard and own myself than ever belong to anybody again That's not what I mean, just! I mean," plaiting her napkin and watch inc his amused faco with unquailing "that I want to earn my own livin' my want to do my

eye, for myself, but I don't own lovin' for myself! That's it, just!

You want to be independent t" said Barnhardt, nodding. "Just!" emphasized Jacqueline, nodding iu reply. "But," she added timidly, "I think your sister must be a very

I thank her very much—I do thank very much!" Barnhardt nodded and smiled in re. to this delicate speech. He thought this little stray being was somewhat like an olive—there was a wild, delightftil flavor to her talk. It pleaded him, also, to look at her. v'V

They roeo from the table, and Patten mado haste to summon tho restaurant waiter, and fo betake herself to her own affairs for the day.

Do you think you can amuse yourself here this morning?" inquired the sculptor, leading the way to a recess in tbe end of his drawing-room which fronted the thoronghfare." Here are many books, you see. Look over them aa modi a) you wish. And there's the street you'll not tire of that very soon. But do not so out alone.'^

I shouldn't feel safe to go out alone," observed Jacqueline, briefly. And you wouldn't be safe. There may be some ono around watching for you. Bo you think you can be contented "here? I dont want to admit any one to the stodlo to-day." "Oh, yes," replied Jacqueline, "it's beautiful here. It*s tbe studio!" "Tbe studio would be jealous if it heard you say so," laughed the sculptor. But It needs no other attractions for me than those it already has. Good-morn-ing. But what's tbe matter. lla.lo on a

Though she knew as well as he did that ho was quizzing her, the girl kept a grave face, and bestowed more thought en his suggestions than the sculptor could have believed possible.
