In spite of the bold determination
with which she had cme to London,
ahe was more than half afraid to ven
ture out by herself, but. as the after
noon wore on, the silence of the
houe grew more unbearable, and at
last in desperation she put on her hat
and coat.
The sun was shining and her stura
its roe as she walked along. She
tried to comfort herself with the as
surance that there was no need to
stay 'at her aunt's home. She was
not entirely dependent on her as long
as that 100 pounds was still intact.
But somehow, in London, it seemed
a considerably smaller sum that it
had done down in the country.
She looked in the shop w inds and
was appalled at the price of clothes.
How was it that Dolly could manage
to drcs so beautifully if, a she had
said last night, she was on the
rocks?
"Whatever vou do never get into
debt." Both Mr. Junkers and Walter
Sncath had impressed that upon her
when she bade them goodby, and
Walter had added, with a little
hoarseness in his voice. "If ever you
want me I'll conic, Elizabeth you
know that."
Foor Walter! It made her sad to
think of him, and yet she did not in
the least regret what she had done.
Already he and his love seemed
to belong to the past. Presently the
sunshine clouded ovrr and it began
to rain. Eliraheth had no umbrella
and her coat was thin: ahe looked
around for shelter. A house close by
had. a big porch which cxtened a lit
tle way over the pavement, and she
ran toward it to grt out the rain,
which was teeming dow n now in a
regular April showen
It was a big house, with a number;
of brass nlates on the door; various
ortires, Elizabeth supposed, as she
looked interestedly at them; then her
attention was caught, by a smaller
plate' a little below the rest. "The
Primus School of Dancing. First
Floor."
The color rushed to her face and
her heart began to beat fast. This
was what she wanted, if only she
dared go in and nuke inquiries.
Surely it was fate that had brought
her so soon to the right spot.
,, J. She looked round; the rain was
still fallme heavily, and there was
ncbdy in sight. The big door of
the house stood invitingly open, and
a .wide flight of stone steps led to
the floors above. '
Elizabeth felt very much as she
might have done had the Primus
School of Dancing been a dentist's
where operations were carried on
without anesthetics. For some min
utes she stood irresolute, afraid and
trembling; then, with a sudden des
perate spurt of courage, she turned
and ran ud the wide stone staircase.
Her courage had deserted, her be
fore she reached the first floor, and it
is improbable that she would have
gone on had not, one of the doors
above opened and a girl come out on
to the landing. She was a dark
haired, smart-looking girl, with'' rath
er a short skirt and dainty shoes,
and she stood still when she saw
Elizabeth, the faintest smile cross
ing her face.
But for once Elizabeth was ,ab
livious to the meaning of that smile;
she had forgotten her old-fashioned
clothes and too-long skirts; she only
knew that she was at last on the
threshold of her ambition.
But she felt tongue-tied and
stupid, and it was only when the girl
asked. ".Can -I do anything for you?"
that she blurted out:
"I want to learn to dance."
The eirl's eyes wandered over her
with the faintest' amusement; then:
"Will you come in?' she said, and
Elizabeth followed her into a little
room, which led again into, a larger
one,. the door ot which was halt
closed. But through it Elizabeth
caught a glimpse of polished parquet
floor, and a piano before the door

she began, : then stopped with the
dreadful feeling that she had been
cauxht in a trap.
The dark-haired girl seemed not to
notice. She wa intent on a book
khe held, and. after a moment, she
went off again into the next room.
from wlurh came the sound I music
and Elizabeth was left alone.
She had never been so afraid of
anything in her life as she was of
meeting Pat Roynton. She txd
for a moment not knowing what to
do then -she turned and fled the way
she had come, down the stairs and
out into the street.
It wa still raining, but at first she
hardly noticed it, and it was only
when the drops began to drip from
the brim of her hat that she realized
that she was wet to the skin.
It was getting late, too. She
stopped and looked desperately
round for an omnibus or a taxirab.
All the oiunihutes were crowded.
Their drivers took no notice of her
timid signaling to stop, but a few
paces further on she saw an empty
taxicab coming slowly up the road.
It would cost a lot of money to
take it, she was sure, but she was
wet through and shivering, and her
one idea now was to get away from
this particular spot as quickly as
possible. She felt for her purse to
make sure it was sale, and a cold
shudder went through her from head
to foot, for it had gone.
She hunted frantically through
every pocket. She even took off her
coat in the pouring rain and shook
it, but without avail. She had lost
her purvc and every penny she pos
sessed in the world.
For a moment she was too terri
fied to move; then she started to run
back the way she had come, never
stopping until she reached the porch
of the Primus School of Dancing.
She had forgotten her dread of
meeting Royslon in the face of this
greater tragedy. She pelted up the
stairs breathlessly and pushed open
the door of the small outer room.
''My purse I've lost my pursi."
She was incoherent and almost cry.

sob as she met the amazed eyes oi
Tat Royslon.
The music from the inner room
had ceased, and the dark-haired gill
