At every step you stumbled over a clotheapln or a piece ot rope. You run up the five flights ot atairq--that WIS all right, for there were lights on every landing. But tram there on it was No-Man's- Land. You went up the other halt. flight to the root, and pushed the heavy iron door out.

Ugly Suspicion- Cilly walked wearily over to the bed and removed the spread. There was no sense sitting up all night to worry about it. " Jim really cared for her, he'd be back. And it he did not, well, it was certainly much better to find him out before she married him. Much better. She was not a foolish schoolgirl. She could face a disappointment sensibly. And quite sensibly. Was ever a no man in love sensible, she wonder. She brushéd aside a tear savage- ly, and jumped Into her twin bed. So Gilly was annoyed at Amy. Annoyed and not a little hurt, They had gotten along so happily togeth- er. Up until tonight. Amy had never shown any trace of selfishness or pettiness. Cllly had really loved her. Was Amy at last showing her true colors? If she had wanted to go up there so badly, she’d have said to Harry: "Come up on the root for a minute with me, will you? I want to air I. dress." That would be the natural thing to do, instead of waiting around tor Jim to leave, and follow- ing him out. . BLt Amy had waved Harry out with a nonchalant air, and she had waited around with Jim and Cilly. She didn't even excuse herself and pretend that she was going to bed. She just waited around until Jim left, and then she immediately got the bright idea ot taking her blue dress up on the roof. Harry llutchlns had left 10 min. utes carllor than Jim. Amy could have walked down to the vestibule it she wanted to be alone with him. And given Jim a few mlnutes to trargoodttir,ht to her, Cilly. Then Amy wasn't alone, It was all poppycock about wanting to air her blue dress. Amy was going up on the root to meet someone. Who? No, Amy wasn't the sort to lin. gi'l' in the terrifying blackness of the root alone at midnight-mot it sho were alone. You remembered all the stories you ever read about ghosts that rise in graveyards at midnight. You remembered them all in the 10 or 20 seconds it took to cross from the heavy iron door to the clothesllne. And because those 10 seconds Just seemed like 10 long, dreary years. you hurried " last an ever you could; you grabbed that dress or coat down tram the line with small regard tor flying clothespins; and you fairly flew back to the big, heavy door, lest Mr. Johnson come up and lock it for the Bight, and leave you out in that intense black- ness until morning. Cllly II Annoyed Thirty seconds it took, at the most, to rcgh over to that clothes. line and back. You didn't linger. Cilly hadn't lingered. and Cilly was as brave as the average. Even a little more bravo than Amy. Amy would not come home alone even- inzs when Gilly had to work late. She didn't like to be alone in the apartment. She said so. son as you stepped out toward the clothesline. You thought of Dracula and at every step you expected to see him before you, his black cape spread out bat-like, ready to entold you.

In an Instant. Gilly was at the window, and as she looked out, she forgot the six-toot drop to the ground, she forgot that she was clad only in pajamas and shoes. She jumped quickly; she knelt be- side that crushed, Wen figure that had come hurtllng trom the root, Then there was a dull thud out. side Cllly's bedroom window - a heavy, swift mid.
