recently at children's party in London. The

brown plush, with a sash of yellow silk, and her

storm was soon upon the forest in all its

storm was soon upon the forest in all its
fury.
About an hour after midnight terrific
crash disturbed us in an instant every man
was upon his feet. rushing out to see the
cause. A mighty pine tree had been
hurled by the gale to the earth. 1t fell
athwart the largest of the fires; and as
we went forward, a torrent OF sparks
swirled upward and swept away out into
the forest. Some of us uttered an ex-
clamation of thankfulness that the tree
had failed to touch the sleeping-buts; but
Gregory. who was the first to advance,
gave cry of horror.
There Law Wilding by the fire, with
the huge trunk across his breast. Unable
to sleep, he had risen and stolen out to sit
by the large fire.
Thus fate had overtaken him.
Gregory knelt down, distressing tears
falling from his face. His master, who
had not lost consciousness, looked up at
him with a faint, happy smile.
1T is all that it should be, Gregory"
he painted; II am going to them In bet
ter land"
spoke to him, but he did not seem to
hear me- He was gazing upward at the
orange sky, which almost seemed af1ame ;
his eyes had far-away look, as if seeing
beyond it, Thus he lay for some minutes,
his hands joined in the attitude of one who
prays. his lips silently moving. Then a
change passed over his face.
Eyes, yes; see Them he whispered
in sort of joyous eagerness: goodly
company-all angels of brightness. My
dear ones, am coming"
VERY gradually his eyes closed. There
was long-drawn sigh. and all was oyer
"And so. through the vast and unknown
gate of death he passed into that of Para
disc. The storm spent its fury, and the
dawn came, gray and gloomy, with
dreary mist and driving rain, which
shrouded forest and river and mountain
from our view, bloting from our vision
the fair face of nature. But James Wild
ing had awakened amid the splendors of
eternal morning, there to enter into the
new year in sweet communion with those
he loved; the new year of Immortality.
Kate drew deep breath.
"Oh, BERTHE, what solemn story! Can
it be true?''
"Undeniably true. Kate, as far as my
portion is concerned. And | think can
answer for the part OF it which did not

"Well, it is very strange; very SOL
emn!''
"Solemn enough. Kate. to have kept

Now, Tom, don't begin to lecture me.

"What became of him Immediately af-
