his only aunt, rich old lady in St.
Louis, had died and left him an i'm

and made murky the fountain of hope.
He tore the letter to pieces, and bent
his faltering steps to the nearest saloon.

Mr.. Yorke was not in a fever over tn
child; but Mr. Yorke was in fever owe
something else. He was positively be
lieving, in spite of improbabilities, tina
the story of the illness had been a got NJ
excuse, got up between his wife and Mr.
Janson, to indulge in this night walk of &
mile and half And he .clenched hi
hands, and CRASHED his teeth, and STROBE
fiercely along in his foaming jealousy. Il
is a passion which has turned many 9
sensible man to madness.
He stole in at his own gate and recon
noitered the house. The drawing room
was in darkness, its windows open; they
were not there. A light shone up stairs
in Leopold's chamber, and one also in his
wife's bedroom.
He stole up stairs, stealthily still, and
entered the bedroom; his own, Jointly
with hers. The housemaid was turning
down the bed.
as your mistress come homer" asked
he, speaking, perhaps unconsciously to
himself, in a whisper.
"Yes,sir; she came in with Mr.. Janson.
They are with Master Leopold"
Up higher yet, but quietly still, till he
reached Leopold's room. His wife stood
there, at the foot of the bed, her shawl
still on, and the hood fallen back from
her head, and Mr.. Janson was seated on
a chair at its side, leaning over Leopold,
his watch in one hand, the child's wrist in
the other. He lay on his back, his little
face transparent white, as it had been
lately, and his cheeks and lips most
lovely pink crimson. His eyes were wide
open, and looked very bright
"PapaI' said he, half raising his hand,
when Mr.. Yorke entered.
~ don't know why Finch should have
been so frightened" said Mrs Yorke, to
her husband. "He isquite rational no W,
and seems but little worse than be usually
does when the fever is upon him."
What do you mean by having thus
sent to alarm usY' demanded Mr.. Yorke,
in sharp irritable tone, as Finch enter
ed the room with night-light, which
she had been down to get. Frightened,
indeed Did you send?'
81 never knew any child change So"
returned she, almost as irritably as her
master. "He was burning with fever, as
bad as he ever had been days ago, and
delirious again. 1t alarmed me, sir, and
l sent off for Mr.. Janson: 1 didn't send
for you and my mistress. No sooner had
the man gone than he dropped asleep,
and has now woke mp calm-almost as
much as to insinuate that 1 am telling
stories"
This class of fevers will fuctuate, in
terposed Mr.. Janson. Zone hour the pa
tent seems at deaths door, and the next
scarcely i'll at all. Something has GER
tainly increased it tonight, but he will do
WELL"
IF ever l saw any human body so
changed as the master is, since we came
here!' uttered Finch to Charlotte, that
same evening. Formerly he used to be
pleasant enough in the house, unless any
great thing crossed him, but now he's as
growing and snappish as bull put up
for batting. l wonder my mistress does
not give him bit of her mind wish
he'd 60 off to Scotland as he did last
year"
