she called the snow clearing. In the

There was an ever increasing charm to
both men in Leslie’s innocent chatter, in
her half childlike, half woman] ways,.
and in her singing. For she in offered ,
in a naive little way to sing to them, “to
help to pass the time.” So she sang
every night. She had aswcet, touching,
bird like voice—a voice that found its
way at once to the heart and stayed them

“NoJ don’t light tho‘lamp,” said Lee-
lie. “I can see quite Well." Then she
opened the book and began to read,
choos a short chapter in Isaiah. The
grand o (1 words fell with a stran ., sol-
emu significance from the girl lips,
thought at least one of her listeners, and
lie bmamo conscious with a sharp, sud-
den pang of the wide, terrible desert of
years and follies and sins that lay be-
tween this pure, childlike, innocent lit)-
tlo soul and his own. Then he thought
of his mother; it was more than twen
years since she had given him that litt e
book—twenty years!
“And sorrow and sigbing shall flee
away,” read Leslie, as she finished the
chapter and closed the book.
I This time it was Darrell who thanked
nor.
Shortly afterwards she said good night
and went to her room;
“What a dear little thing she is,” said
Chrruthere, tenderly, as he came backto
his seat again, after opening the door for
her. “Don‘t you think 80?”
“Yes,” was the terse answer.
“What an iceberg you are, Dan'ell,”
went on Carruthers, with some impa—
ticncc. “About women, I mean.”
“Ali," said the other indifierently.
“Just hand me my pipe, will you—and
the matches. Thanks.”
There was a somewhat len honed
silence; then Gilbert saidéiidd, y:
“Look here, 'old marl, I’m go to tell
you somethin that Will mono you think
me an out an out fool.”
Darrell took his pipe more firm be-
tween his strong whito tooth. He ew

“ ow, if you _ tol last unda

“Much obliged,” said the other curtly.
“I should, really,” wentrpn Ca tiers,
absently taking up the po or an 3'

bars of the rate. "The fact 3, olyl man,
I’m as deep y in love as any Schoolboy.”
Darrell received this announcement in
perfect silence.
“Hang it all, Lance, you might show a
little interest!” burst out Gilbert in an
aggrieved tone.
“My dear follow, you musgremember
that, as yet! have no 139 "tolhahg my

rell iii miter a strained voice. "Am I
to understand that have-fallen in

He got out the last words shar ly and
almost roughly, as if they hurt
Gilbert paused to the act of lighting
his pipe and nodded. “You've hit it, ’
he said then, as he throw away the
match. “The thing is—has she—would
she think anything of me?"
“Well, I suppose you hardly intend as-
t.

meantime?” observed Darrell, shortly.
“Do I intend bein a howling cad?”
was the indignant i'ojo dcr. “Of course
I shall wait till we get out of this con-
founded hoIe—lf We ever do.” Then,
after a pause, he went on, almost boyish-
ly, “I'say, old fellow, do you think I‘d
have any chance?” ’
“I see no reason why you should not,"
was the answer, in an odd voice. .
Cai'ruthers leant his elbow on his knee
and stared into the am. Then he said:

“What is it to you—his life or death?"
She made no answer; but he could see
that she was trembling violently.
"Do you mean,” he said, speaking
very slowly, and with long pauses bo-
twcen the words, “that you—care for

of woman's passion mug in his ears
still. Ho had half at, ted for the last
day or two that Dario , cpredfgr Ioslio,

was in the kitchen, wildly rummaging
in the drawers. After searching in vain

his sunken eyes. “How can I thank you

“We see a great deal of the queer side of
human nu " said a New York hotel clerk
the other day, “and I think absent minded
people give us as much trouble as any other
class of customers, but there is nernlly so
much to amuse one in their takes that
théy are willingly forgiven. I can generally
‘spot’ absent minded people by the quickness
with which they assume a preoccupied air
- whenever the conversation or their surround-
ings do not interest them It is not often,
however, that a perfectly sane and sober
man forgets his own name, yet such a case
once came under my observation.

“A manger to New York came in here one
day, seeming to be a little dazed with the
bustle of the crowded streets. He was one of
that kind of men you often bump against in
Broadway, as he walks backward With his
mouth a little open and his eyes fixed on the
ninth story of some bulldin . As he came up
to the desk I pushed the roaster toward hint
He took the pen, dipped it in the ink, and thou
hesitated, soowled, and then blushed. Think-
ing that perhaps he could not write, I pulled
the register toward me to wrlto it myself and
said: ‘What name? ‘1'“ be hanged if I
haven‘t forgotten it,’ he said, as mad as a bat-
tei'. I looked at the man in astonishment and
mid ‘Give me your card.’ This brought it to
his memory in a flash. Probably that part
of his 'thinker' that rooollected sounds was
taking a rest, but that rt which remem-
bered how his name look when it was writ—
ten out was on duty.
“We had a wealthy old lady staying with
us last winter. She was sitting in the parlor
all alone, musing in front of an open grate
fire, one day, when she began to call loudly
for the parlor maid. Receiving no answer,
Ibo rang the electric bell, which she could
reach without rising, so long that I thought
mmethiiig must be wrong, and [sent two bell
boys up stairs ‘ou the dead run.‘ When they
reached her the fire was burning fiercely, and
her face was red with the heat and with in-
digmtion. ‘Bring me the fire screen,’ she al-
most summed; ‘such lazy servants I never
saw. I have been calling for on how. Bring
mo it at once before I am roasted to death.’
‘Certninly, mn’nm,’ said one of the boys, with
a grin, ‘but mightn’t iy30u have pushed back
your chair a little? ‘ pon my word,’ she re-
‘I never thought of that.’ And then
she burst out laughing. ‘1! my friends hear
of this,’ she added, ‘they’ll think I’m in my
domge,’ and she gave the boys a half dollar
each and mndethem swear to keep it all a
secret.
