Bess Dean popped her bead in at the office door, saw that I was alone, came into the room and shut the door behind her "She's gone to the village." "When will she be back?" "I don't know.. She may not re turn at all. There is nothing for her to do." v "I'll bet a cookie I know where she's gone." Miss Dean put her palms upon the rather high desk, leaped lightly to the top of it, and began swinging her feet. She evi dently was in a gossipy mood, andl wished her anywhere else. "What are you doing here?" I asked, trying to turn the conversa tion from Alice Holcombe. "I thought you had left with the rest of them as soon as you reported this afternoon." Bess Dean "Digs." "Oh, I'm trying to get into the class with Winesy," she said airily "She didn't leave until just a few minutes ago. That's the reason I pro ceeded cautiously until I saw you were alone. I thought perhaps sheJ was skinning and cutting her up, and far be it from me to interfere with a lady's diversions. I laughed in spite of myself, her saucy nonchalance was irresistible. I have often envied her power to throw off everything disagreeable, and at no time, more than at this moment whey the weight of the world seemed to be resting upon my shoulders. "Then you've really been work ing." I tried to speak banteringly, hut failed miserably. "Pos-i-tive-ly.. Got everything cleared up for a week And let me tell you something don't look for little Bessie in the morning, 'cause she's going to be sound asleep in her little hed. Oh. ves! I know the orders that old stuffed owl left to rlav. and anvbodv can obey them who wants to. But not for me! Yon ran send a written report if you like on my absence, but they won't fire me for oversleeping, and I should -worry if they dock me." "I shall file no report unless one is asked for." I replied a bit stiffly, "and as far as I am concerned the entire staff may sleep the whole two days away." "Don't fool yourself. Day after to morrow we'll all have to be in evi dence at the funeral with teary eye lashes and black bands on our sleeves. That's one reason why I'm going to get a good sleep tomorrow. I'll need it. If it's one thing more than another I can't stand it's a funeral, and especially one like this will be." I opened my lips to say that under no circumstances would I attend the funeral of Milly Stock bridge, and to express my opinion upon the bad taste of making it other than a, strictly private affair, but an instant's second thought closed them again. Not to Bess Dean could I utter any confidence. I might as well paste it upon the postoffice bulletin board. Oh, Lady, Please" Oh. vou can keep it to yourself!" Miss Dean tossed her head offend edlv. "What?" I asked unguardedly. "Whatever you opened your mouth to say just now.But never mind that. Lt me tell you some thing that you can't deny. Alice has gone to the coroner's inquest as a witness, and I know it." "If you know it, why question -mer l asKea wun a non-tuinmu- tal air. "Just for the fun of seeing you squirm," she retorted with a malic ious laugh. "I always did enjoy see ing little goats meandering around the lawn, and your small Nanny has certainly slipped its tether about now. Ta-ta. Keep your secrets dearie but don't you think you fool lijtle Bessie, for you don't. You'll have to get up earlier in the morning than you ever did to pull the wool over dis chile's eyes." She slipped from the desk with carelss grace, swept me a mocking bow that, after all, had no ill nature in it, and danced out of the room. I heard her humming a little tune as she went down the corridor, heard it again as she came back from her room and left the building, t stood idly at the window and watched her little figure tripping down the path, as if she were the spirit of careless,, happy youth itself, and felt old and careworn as I watched her. I stood at the same window a number of times in the next hour, for an uncontrollable restlessness had seized me, I felt as if I could r.ot stand tne interval ui w""S until Alice Holcombe snouia return. Upon mv sixth or seventh trip I saw a taxicab being driven rapidly up the curving, private road lead ing to the school. As it drew up in front of the door I recognized in the driver a boy of whom Alice Hol combe had spoken as a former fav orite pupil of hers. The lad got down from the seat, threw open the door, and I saw him give a dis tinct start and thrust his head into the taxicab. The next instant he had withdrawn it and east a frantic look toward the school building. I leaned from the window, which was only on the second story, and called down softly: "What is the matter? "Oh. ladv, please come down here quick!" he' implored. "Miss Hol combe's dead or fainted or some thing."
