better for him if he had had a bottle of

Thurston and Havermeyer continued
their meal, and talked for while with
their host. Then Havermeyer said some
thing 10 his companion mentioning the
name OF Davaris. As he did so the old
man looked ut him keenly.
"Davaris?" he said "who Is that? once
knew a man OF that name in Greece"

Thurston queried the old man and he
seemed strangely excited. He insisted on
learning all he could OF Davaris, and for a
while looked dreamily into the fire in deep
thought.

Westerly, and tell him TO como TO me as
fast as horse can bring him."
The old man sat down in his chair,
breathing hard, his eyes shining unnatur-
ally. Thurston promised 10 do what he
asked, and then they made arrangements
for spending the night. Thurston and
Havermeyer were to occupy the bed i'm
the room; their host said he had cot in
the other room.
On getting into bed Havermeyer imme-
diately went of TO sleep. but for some
time Thurston tossed about thinking and
wondering what the old man wanted with
Davaris. When at last he did go to sleep,
tho last thing he saw before he closed his
eyes was the old man In his chair by the
flresde.
The fire had gone out; nothing OF IL re-
NAMED but heap Of white ashes. The
storm had died away completely. No
longer did the wind hurl the rain savage
ly against the windows OF the little house; (;
no longer did the trees bend east. Not a
sound was to be heard, except the heavy
breathing OF the two sleepers In that
room; even the dogs we're quiet. The old
man sitting by the fire-side was notion
less. Presently in tie east n gray light
appeared. constantly growing brighter
every moment; the sky turned red as
blood; the white clouds far above were
tinged with delicate carmine reaching
far into tho north and south; and at last
the sun flashed up. glistened on the rain
drops on the trees and on the grass. AS
the bright beams entered the one window
of that little room the old man moved un-
easily. The sun fell full upon his white
face; lie attempted TO lift up bis head; he
opened his eyes for an instant; he placed
his hand over his hc>rt and spasm OF
pain passed over his features; he moved
his lips his hand fell to his side Imply !;
and then he was motionless.
