There were many stirring times in BurlinG-

chronicled each graduation OF cnange
There was no help for it, however, so he
braced his nerves and faced round half
defiantly toward her.
The veil still covered her face, and
she made no effort to withdraw it. She
had taken of her other glove, and her
hands lay together in her lap. She
seemed to feel that he was bending to.
ward her, that his eyes were on her. and
lifted her hands and touched his face
and his hair gently and lingeringly with
the tips of her fingers. With a sudden
ness as overwhelming as would be the
extinction of light on a fair day, the con-
Yiction came to Royal that the girl at
his side was blind.
For moment ne was staggered; then
came the memory of the sick mans
words: "She must not be left to poverty
and dependence. she is physically in
capable of making her own fight with
the world" In the light of this develop
ment many things which had puzzled
him grew clear. All the nobler instincts
of manhood awoke within him. The
woman beside him was invested on the
instant with sacredness other and
greater than that which had enveloped
her as the possession of another man
conided to his honor. She was in his
eyes set apart as an object of tender care
md consideration for all men,
Yielding to the impulse that WIS in
him he clasped the gentle wandering
hands in his and raised them to his lips,
touching them softly, reverently, as a
man might touch the sleeping form of
his little child.
