Two tracks, stood open ; the trays, half packed, had been, lifted out and had suffered complete eclipse. Not even the bureau drawera were closed as usual.

Mrs. Penfleld was sitting on the, edge of a stool, her body crumpled forward, her cheek resting on the Ironing-board, her holder In her out- flung hand. She was asleep. “And I let her do it,” breathed the girl in contrition. Mrs. Penfleld roused. In- the midst of her weariness sensing the presence of another person. There were tired shadows under her eye*, but the smiled brightly. “I guess Pm all through, Lorene. I was Just resting a minute." Lorene sprang forward and threw her arms around Mra. Penfleld‘a neck.
