CHAPTER CHI.
Wm determination was written
in Evelyn’s face as she was borne
up the Welké Building in the ele—
vator. None of the other passen-
gers in the lift could have guessed
that passion burned within her. was
consuming her.
She walked steadily to the corn-
‘er in which Fred‘s office was par-
titioned 03. No office boys were in
sight. and she did not dant to be
announced any way, so she softly
opened the door. The tap, tap. tap
of Miss Stone's typewriter cut the
slices. Before she opened it fully.
she took a peek into the three
corners visible. Miss Stone was the
only occupant. Her heart leaped.
"How do you do, Mrs. Jille?” The
stenographer arose. "Your husband
has just gone to the president's of-
fice with Mr. Robertson."
"Oh.” She paused. "Thank you.”
'Another pause. “I wonder how long
he will be gone."
“I couldn't say. but he never stays
in there very long. \Von't you sit
dorn?"
Evelyn was trying
words.
The stenographer smiled conven-
tionally and sat down. In a mo-
ment her typewriter was tapping
again.
Dragging a. chair behind her
Evelyn walked to Miss Stone's desk
and, carelessly wiping a wisp of hair
out of her face. fixed her eyes on
the stenographer.
The woman at the typewriter
looked up with a. smile only half
radiant and all meaningless.

Billy was enjoying the flew from
the Eiffel Tower when he heard foot
steps coming up the stairs and he
knew that the soldiers were afief
him.
Quick as a. wink he ran to the ele-
Vator. Jumped in. shut the door as
before and, pushing the lever in the
opposite direction ,from which he
had before, the car shot downward
with terrific speed. but not too fast
for Billy to see the soldiers climb-
ing the stairs after him.
The minute the car passed them.
they turned and ran down the steps
as fast as they had come up. but
to no use. Billy reached the bottom
before they were half way down.
and in a second he had slipped the
door back and was out in the street
running as fast as he could to get
out of 'sight ofthe Isoldiers. He did
not look where he was going. but
ran straight ahead down the street
that lay before him and it was a.
lucky thing for him that he did. else
he never would have found his way
back to camp. But as he increased
his speed, he soon came to some
buildings he recognized as having
passed when he entered the city with
old Nannie. Watching for landmarks
-he presently came'to the city gates.
through which he went like a shot
for fear of being stopped. He did
run into an old man and knocked
him over and hooked a dog out of
_his 98th. bUt with these exceptions
he got through all right and soon
was back in camp, where he found
all was animation. for the regiment

try to steal their employers from
their wives?" '
\i'ith a. start the stenographcr fell
into paralizcd attention. Her re-
sponse was in her glance.
Evelyn awaited the effect.
"I do." she finally resumed. "It
always causes them trouble." She
spoke lightly, keeping her eyes up-
on the other woman. "I never ex-

Mrs. Jille questioningly.
"I’m afraid. it you will pardon
me. that you are making inferences
of some kind."
Evelyn spoke coldly and terribly.
“I came here to tell you. Miss
Stone. that you had better leave my
husband alone."
The stenographer flamed. “\Vhst
do you moan?" she exclaimed.
Then: “Do you think that I'd have
anything in do with your hus-
hand?" She let fly with an angry
laugh. tense and brief. She started
toward Evelyn as if she were going
to strike her. but Evelyn backed up
and no blow fell.
"I suppose not. Miss Innocence."
The words were biting. "\Vhere did

“Praise be to de Lord!" exclaimed

boa‘rded freight cars (1 in the dark

all unknown to the populace. But ev

The soldiers were terribly crowd-
ed and uncomfortable in the cars,
but no one complained and eaoh
made the best of it and rolled him-
self up in his-army blanket as Well
as he could, for the night was chilly.
Billy. being the mascot, was not
shipped in a cattle car by himself.
but was allowed to go in with the
men, for which: privilege Billy and
Tom were truly thankful. because
Tom could then keep his eye on Bil-
ly and see that he did not run away
and when Billy lay down. he could
use him as a pillow. . .
All night long they 'jolted along
on the bare floor of the car, the
train stopping on a sidetrack now
and then to let a special train speed
by.’ ’

begin for Billy.)
