ana again. oh, God, helpW
The next day was Christmas eve. Odin
spent the morning at lawyers, where
ne mad will made, signed and witnessed,
leaving all property he should die pos
sessed OF to Maurice Matlock. He had
restrained his first impulse, to make uliet
MS legatee. Those who can read his heart
may know why. This will was merely a
precautionary measure. He had made up
bis mind what to do.
He purposed taking an elevated train
up town. AS he reached the ticket WIN
dow, n train come up to the station where
confused crowd of persons was waiting.
lhey thronged together, trying to force
their way on the car platform. Odin was
debated. and was about to deslst from the
attempt, when he all at once caught signt
OF Juliet. She was clinging to the closed
wicket or one of the platforms, which had
been closed upon her as she WAS about to
step upon the train. The train was al
ready in motion, and she evidently feared
to step of again.
Odin sprang forward, scattering all be-
fore him. He got to the WICKET while the
car was still score of yards from the
enu OF the station. Grasping il with one
hand, he passed the other arm around
Juliets waist, and with mighty effort,
swung her safe over the wicket and on
the platform of the car. At the same mo-
ment his shoulder came in contact with
the railing at the end of the station,
his hand slipped, he felt himself plung-
ing downward through the air. There
was deadly shock, and he knew no
more.

Death had prevented his confession; but
he felt at peace, for in death he saw the
mercy OF God. He will not be forced to
grieve those pure souls that loved him by
the story OF his sin. Yet, by his death,
right would be done to them. Dark
ness closed around him again; but in its
depths he saw glimmering the holy light

scious that he himself had grown shall
lower and baser. But Maurice either
could not or would not see this. His gen.
erous and trustful temper would aamit
the existence of nothing that was mot
noble and honest in the man that he had
known and loved. OdIn was the dear old
Odtn, dearer than ever after their long
parting. And Odin felt stimulated and
purified by the mere glow of his friends
belief and support.
Hereupon the conversation became ami
mated and general. Maurice had brought
turkey and two mlnce pies, which we're
examined and appraised, and borne off to
the kitchen to be cooked. But as the
cooking involved the absence of Mrs.
Matlock, of whom nothing could be seen
beyond occasional glImpses through the
kitchen door, as she bent over the stove
or reached down the dishes, Odin insisted
that he and Maurice should go in and
help her, so the two men took off their
coats and became assistant cooks, amidst
great jollitv and laughter. Moreover, Odin
turned out to be something of a culinary
genius. and, under his workmanship the
turkey took on SAVIOR ravishing to the
senses; the vegetables assumed the as
pect of the most delicious recherche
french delicacies, and soup, containing
naVors or everything appealing, maJeri-
allied itself. as it seemed, out OF nothing
at all. Everything that Odin did increased
the delight and admiration of Maurice
and Juliet, for Juliet was her name, and
Odin had never in his life laughed so
much or had so good a time. Never,
moreover, had he heard such lovely
laughing as was continually bubbllng up
between Juliet and Maurice. They were
so much in love with each other ami so
happy about it that the least thing was
en0nOh fhnnl Il
woman were ever better matched than
these two, although they probably had not
thousand dollars In the world, and
Maurice was at least 35 years old, while
Juliet was barely 20. But to hear them
laugh you would have thought-and
Odin seriously began to think-they must
be stray pair of Christmas angels.
