"Hsrbara," she said, aoftlri "I liavo something

The thin, patient face did not turn towards ber.
"Do you hear me, Uarbara?" aho cried, laying

Wuat waa there In that ley touch that sent auob a

low, startled cry, lonlo ga.eii down Into tho rigid

flashed no look ot recognition up Into her own.
Then a piercing shriek rang through tho lonely
