Would he be In time? Henry sprinted down the stairs, do shed to the apartment door around the comer, (lung himself up the four (lights of stairs that must lead him to the door of the girl's Hal and In a breathless panic lest he be loo late to save the life of that pour girl, rang the bell with a loud peal. He breathed a sigh of relief, for within the apartment he heard foot steps approaching the door. And to Henry's now vivid Imagination he fancied the footsteps dragged as If the girl were uncertain as to whether she would answer the summons or continue her determination to end It all. Henry braced himself. The girl might, in her fevered, unstrung state of mind attempt to bury those blades in his own flesh by mistake. She opened the door and stood nt her Imperious gazing door ringer. Certainly she looked shave. distraught and she Rtill clutched Henry took a swift survey of the the scissors In her right hand while with the other she endeavored to push back the half head of long riair tnat hung across her shoulder.

"You certainly are making rather a mess of It looks a bit choppy I have a hunch I could Improve on your work so you would be at least presentable." Joyce stood doubtfully gazing nt Henry, needing bis proffered assistance badly and realizing In her heart that since he had made such a frantic effort to save the life of n complete stranger be must be right sort of chap. Mesldes, Joyce had a queer little feeling that she would grow to like Henry Vyner his eyes were so blue and honest and mirthful. She opened the door wider and Henry stepped Inside her dainty little flat. Once Inside they looked at each other and burst Into laugh ter. Certainly they presented funny picture.
