morning, he received his answer by mail.
For some time after reading the letter Alice
Maynard had written him he sat as if turned
to stone; it ran thus:--
my Dear DR.. Forster:-Your favor of
this morning Just received. | think it is
quite time now to inform you that our nice
little Irritation should end. | have enjoyed
it hugely as have no doubt you have. |
thank you for the many pleasant hours l
have had.
81 forgot to tell you that l am to be
married next Wednesday to Malcolm
Hill Au re0Oir.
'Alice Maynard"
DIR. Forster presently rose from his seat
and gave himself shake. $50 that ends
tt!'' he said. His face had an ashen hue.
He seemed in those few short minutes to
have decided upon what to do, and COM
menced doing it quickly. He packed what
few things he possessed, paid what few bills
he owed, and having settled with his land
lady 10 take care of his things until he could
send 70 them, left the city that evening on
a soutl ern train. lie went to Atlanta, and
at that point learned that the old physician
at Jam, svile had died. and there was a
good opening. He at once went there.
From the first he became popular.
Some three weeks previous to the opening
Of our story there had been a railroad
accident near Cartoons place, and one of
the wounded was brought to his house.
She was young woman of about twenty
six, surprisingly fair. Her wounds were
very serious, and to make matters worse
she had an attack of fever.
DR.. Forster recognized her at once as Alice
Maynard, but now, as he thought, Mrs.
Malcolm Hill.
After days of anxious nursing Alice began
to mend, and as she grew better, Dr. Forster :
visits grew less frequent. Mrs. Carlton one
day said quite suddenly to her guest:
"By the way, you have not told me your
name yet"
Alice smiled languidly and said:
Il supposed Dir. Forster had told you
that"
'No," said Mrs. Carlton. 81 have always
felt that DIR. Forster knew you, but he has
never mentioned your name,"
eyes, said Alice, 1--WE know each other,
and am surprised that he has been so
reticent. | am called Alice Maynard"
Just at this moment Dr. Forster was
ushered into the room, and after the usual
greeting, Mrs. Carlton said -.-
"Doctor, why did you not tell me Miss
Maynard's name?"
A surprised look was on the young mans
face as he said
Mrs. Carlton. | supposed this lady was
Mrs Malcolm Hill. Am not correct?" he
asked turning to Alice.
81 don't understand, DIR. Forster, how
you could suppose such a thing. | have
never been married. and am sure never
gave you cause to think so. 1t is surprise
to me-
While Alice had been saying this Mrs.
Carlton had slipped out, for she thought
there might be something for them to
explain,
Dir. Forster was thankful for this con-
sderation, for lie was anxious to hear what
Alice bad to say.
"Miss Maynard, you surprise me- | have
imagined for six years that you We're the
wife of Malcolm Hill. When | received your
note telling me that you were going to
marry linn left P-,and have never heard
from th9re SINCE

tTell me about it, Dr.Forster.n III
s'You never wrote me i line in your lie?
Did you not receive my letter telling you of
my interview with your father-how he
treated me? And l asked you to elope
with me breathlessly replied DR.. Forster.
81 never received in allmy life 'scrap of
writing from you, aud have always Won
dered whether you saw my father and
what the result was The third day after
saw you for the last time, my father was
found dead in his bed"
"Good Heaveus!" said Dr. Forster. "What
have suffered through my own folly! Miss
Maynard, Lean tell you now what wrote" +"
And he related all that had passed between
him and her father, and told her that he had
written to her and received an answer
That letter of hers, which he had always
kept, he would produce. And on her side
she told him how much she had suffered
during that time, and how she had excused
him in her heart, but had never for one
moment thonght him false:
After long talking over old matters the
doctor left Alice, to return the same evening.
\ When he did so he brought the letter and
showed it to her. She at once pronounced
it forgery. 1t had evidently been written
at the instigaton of Pemberton Maynard.
After little desultory conversation, DR..
Forster said:
''Alice, loved you with young mans
love six years ago, and had it not been fol
my want of sense, we might have beer
married and living happily. Now l love
you with all the old-time fervor but will
the maturer mans nature. Is it too late t.
fulfil our dreams of happiness"
"No, Henry for l have always lover
you"
1t is scarcely needful to add that in few
weeks there was "a wedding at John Carl
toms house, and the worthy host aud host
euess were delighted to see that Dr. Foi ster'
face had frightened and that he looked
younger. They showered down blessings
upon the bride and nearly created deartl
in the rice crop when the carriage with th'
happy couple drove off.

Henry Forster's answer
'Do you think she will pull through?'
"God knows! l hope and pray so. I'll be
here at three O'Clock"
With this answer, Dr. Foster went down
the steps and stepped into his waiting
carriage.
As he drove off Mr.. Carlton gave a long,
low whistle, and said to himself,
"Well, never heard doctor wish So
fetvently for a patients recovery" And
then he called in low voice, "Mary, Mary,
come out here"
In answer hushed voice came
''Don't speak so loud, John; I'll be there
in moment"
Almost before the voice had died away,
Mary Carlton was beside her husband.
She was fair woman; not beautiful, il
the common acceptation of the term, but
with face such as one loves to look upon
one which expressed the nobility of hel
character. Altogether, goodly woman.
''Well, John, what is itP What make'
you look so thoughtful?"
''Why, I've been thinking about Dir. For
ster and our sick gnest, J" said he.
"Have you noticed anything peculiar il

one side of the bed when the doctor caplt
up, and saw him start, and his face grow
pale as death, He was himself in a moment
and attending to her wounds, but | made W
my mind then and there that he knew her
and that there had been something between
them. Then, just before she had the re-
lapse when he was bending over her to at
tend bandage, heard her murmur, @
Henry" So am sure there is something tC
be mended between those two"
''It's very curious" +" said Mr.. Carlton, anC
then he told his wife Of the expression usec
by the doctor in leaving,
DIR. Forster, one of the subjects of this
conversation, was in the meantime driving
slowly along to his next patient, and as hi
drove his mind was busy. lis was moi
what one could call a good-looking man
rather the reverse; but his eyes were the
redeemlug feature. They were deep grey
clear and honest looking. He was slightly
inclined to stoutness, and of medium height

He made few intimate friends, but still
was very popular. John Carlton was one
of those few.
Some six years previous to his locating in
GAINESVILLE, DR.. Forster had been stuggl'
ing young physician in crowded Eastern
city. 1t was up hill work, aud he was just
beginning to get paying practice, when,

Tuesday has been set apart for the
consideration Of bills reported from the
committee on military affairs, with the
understanding, however, that appropri-
alton bills shall have preference.
The pension appropriation bill, which
