though he was impatient for the ho4lr 70

msnt and his cheeks were pale with
nervous dread when he rang the front
door bell of the little house ia West
TwentIeth street.
How strangely familiar the drawing
room looked! Everything was as it had
been the night before she sailed A
faithful servant had kept the place open
and 10 order while she was gone, and il
seemed as fresh and bright when she
got back as though she had never been
away. Rush noticed the delicate odor
OF violets that hung about everything
that belonged 10 Helen. and it brought
her as vividly before his ewes as if she
stood there in all her loveliness. He had
not long 10 wait before she did stand be-
fore him in her bodily presence. She
came towards him with both hands ex-
tended
You must excuse my neglige, Mr..
Hurlstone. but L didn't want 70 keep you

Aunt Rebecca Will be down in q few mo-

she can't come at once. Sit right down
here on this sofaand tell me how you are
and how you've been"
Il needn't ask you how you are" said
Rush, at last finding voice TO speak.
Seating himself beside her, he regarded
her with undisguised admiration He
might well think her lovely; less preju-
diced eyes would have agreed with him
thoroughly. She had been helping Aunt
Rebecca with the trunks, and bad donned
loose morning gown of soft white stuff,
trimmed down the front and around the
neck and sleeves with dark fur. The red
upturned point Of a gold embroidered
Turkish slipper peeped out from beneath
her gown and gave the only bit of color
to her costume. Her brown hair was
done up in a careless classic knot on the
top of her head and she looked as though
she had just stepped out of frame and
it would take very little to make her step
back again
Nothing could be kinder than her
manner 10 Rush. Her object seemed to
be to make him forget himself and his
troubles, and she talked about every
thing OF interest she had seen. Rush
followed her vaguely. for he could not
shake off the load upon his heart. The

kiss of love; and Rush Hurlstone's heart

thing warmer.
West Hastings had not returned from
Europe yet, and Rush had the field al
most 10 himself, for it was early in the

were mostly out Of town. He himself
was at her house every day-not exactly
as caller, but more as a brother. 1t
was To bring her book, to show her
something in the papers she might not
have seen, to try over a piece of music
with her; there was always some good
excuse. Helen was more than glad to
have him, partly because she liked at
tention. and partly because she liked a
bright man with whom she could be on
sisteriy terms. Rush's hours at The
Dawn 1ffice were such that his time was
his own from noon, when he got up,

have been more delightful than his after
moons at Helen's. Though neither Rush
nor Helen were sentimental, as the term
is usually interpreted, they were both
very fond of poetry. Rush had read

Syrian Bakeries and Burials.

The chief articles of food in Syria are
milk and curds. / partook of dish
called kibbe, to Syria what pork and
beans are to New England. They beat
mp grain and chopped meat and vege-
tables together, make it into cake and
cook it in butter and onions. might
have acquired a taste for it, but very
little was Ell o gh at the first trial. The
bread is baked not in loaves but in large
and very thin cakes. The ovens are
built in the ground, and the inside walls
are dried mud or mortar. They heat
them with straw and thorns, and the
cakes are thrown against the side walls,
and lest they should be like ''Ephraim's
cake not turned, both sides are exposed
to the hot surface. A missionary friend
gave me for luncheon two cooked
pigeons wrapped up in two of these
cakes Just rs we would wrap bundle in
paper. I found the bread tough but
paiatable. 1t might not be pleasant to
talk of such things at the table, but you
cannot help but observe the customs of
a people, and noticed that the men on
the roads, pilgrims and peasants, carried
these cakes between their loose shirts
and the bare skin and ate them on occa-
sions with as much dignity and appe-
tite as king ever ate meal. There is no
special connection that l know of be-
tween a bakery and a burial ground,
but the bakery oven, in the village l
inspected most closely, and the grave
yard adjoined each other. Prairie GEM
eteries in the first stages of far Western
towns, without fence or shrub, are mel
ancholy spectacles, but these Syrian
cemeteries are more melancholy. A few
mounds at the edge of the village con-
tain the village dead of many genera
tions. When there is death one of
the graves is opened, the bones of the
last interment gathered up and put in
one corner, and the body, uncoffined,
lowered into the receptacle. 1t is then
filed in with cobble stones to protect it
against the jackals and the birds. When
the graves become full the bones are
taken out and thrown upon pile, and
that CHASTITY sight stares one in the face
at every village. Mail and Express.
