porous days. So, with brave heart,
she started on her journey, and in due
time once moro stood upon her native
shore.
The little money that she possessed
procured her shelter for day or two,
but left her nothing to buy food with
and starvation, with all its grim hor-
rors, stared her in the face. Mechan-
icall y she turned to her almost empty
trunk and looked eagerly over the few
remaining articles. They were worth
less and unstable, save the Italian
girls present of two portraits, which
she had kept as pleasant souvenir OF
the past. Tears filed Cora's eyes as
she looked at them.
"They are Of little value, doubtless
she thought; "but mast sell them or
starve."
So she took her stand in the crowded
thoroughfare, prayerfully hoping to
find purchaser. Presently two gen.
tlemen came down the street. They
stopped, and looked critically at the
Italian girls likeness.
at is the very image of her, by Jove!"
said the younger.
"True," said the other. "And i'll
am not mistaken, strange as IT may
seem, painted by herself. Yes, see,here
is her mare in the corner.'
And he questioned Cora concerning
the pictures. She told him the story
simply and truthfully.
81 remembered the circumstances
WE'LL" he said, "for myself am the
doctor who prescribed for her, and who
witnessed your noble action. The years
that you have passed abroad have made
the Italian girl famous, ard these pic.
tures painted by her are worth a small
fortune. Luckily am rich enough to
afford the luxury Of buying them"
And he promised Cora a sum for them
which astonished her.
"How strangely it all happened ~
thought Cora, when renting some very
comfortable rooms. "Who would have
believed that the p.or Italian girls gift
of gratitude would be the means OF plac-
ing me beyond WANT
But Cora's history does not end here,
for DR.. Rivers-who had never married
perhaps because he had never found
any face so lovely to him as Cora Les
ter's-became her constant visitor, and
she soon learned to love him with the
full and perfect love Of her womanhood.
She is his wife now, happy, honored
and loved. The two portraits hang
conspcuously in her drawing room,
where they are greatly admired. And
thankful tears rise to Cora's eyes when
she looks at them, and remembers how
she was "Saveu from Starving"
