But Helen calmly ignored the irony
of this remark. She told herself the
excitement had slightly frayed Grace's
over: her friend. Irma's face was
deathly white, while her handh were
clenched tightly at her side.
Tu Hee shrank farther away. Turn,'
ing to Helen, she exclainiecl piteously:
"She, too, thinks me guilty."
The girl's remark aroused Irma, and
with an effort of the will she clutched
back„her self-control. Stepping for- 0 Autumn leaf in scarlet drest,

As Irma spoke, her hand went to her
head in a dazed sort of" way,
Tu Hee's timidity fled. The foreign-
er's: perturbed manner denoted she
was suffering, and impulsively the girl'
drew forward a chair and ,tenderly
assisted Irma bete- it.
Helen, ,looked' on cjn amazement,
What in the world'had occasioned Mrs;

be sure, was very lovely, but the. eight
