much attention to what the doctor was do
ing, looking, feeling him. listening and ell
that. and his lips all the time smiling and
the tears all the time dropping off the end
of his nose,
1t was the most curious thing Perry ever
saw in all his born days. Then the doctor
kissed the ugly spots again, and put the
coat on again, aud went to a wash basin
there was there-one Of those curious ones
where you only nave to turn q kind of peg
and the water runs of itsslf-and washed
his eyes, and then asked Perry to sit still
a few minutes while he spoke to his
mother.
She was standing SO close to the door
VIXEN he opened it that Perry could hear
the first words they spoke.
Kitty, dear. Can you be brave and
strong?"
Then he heard his mother fairly scream
out:
Don't talk to me like that! Don't talk
to me like that! know what that means"
And then he couldn't hear any more. He
got softly down and walked to the wash
stand and looked in the glass. lie hardly
knew his own face. it was 30 white and
staring. Had he any hopes? He didn't
know.
He only wanted to 90 to his mother and
comfort her. She knew what that" meant
we'll, if that" only meant that every
thing was going on as ii always had gone
on that was not very awful. was it? he
would 90 and tell her so. anyhow. So he
opened the door softly and stood still.

THE DOCTOR DID A FUNNY THING.

Mammy-sweet wasn't screaming any
more. DR.. Porter had drawn one Of her
hands under his arm and was walking up
and down the long room with her, while
with the other hand she was covering her
eyes under her veil. He was saying:
mo, it wouldn't have made any differ
ence-though of course you ought to have
sent for me years ago. 1t was before he
was born, one of the sacrifices you made to
your country. We could have kept the
spine straight by force and tormented the
dear little fellow into his grave most
likely, after years of unspeakable anguish.
1t is better as it is"
Then tho Doctor saw him and smiled: but
Perry could not bear to see this strange
man between him and his mother, sven il
it was DR.. Porter. He ran forward and
pushed him away and put his arms around
her, crying, Never mind him, mother.
Here l am. Your boy! our Perry And
he pulled her out toward the door and the
wagon
The doctor followed, and while Perry was
unhitching the horse, said:
Wont you lift you veil just oncs?"
"No, not once"
mot even to cure me2''
mot even for that"
Then, whom she was ready to get in, she
said in a lower voice:
Not to-day" and held out her hand.
The doctor did a funny thing; he kissed
her hand, and he said q funny thing, too.
1t WAS:
Thank you."
Perry hoped DR.. Porter noticed how hard
he looked away when the doctor said "good
BY" and then drove of.
While they were in Ann Arbor NANNY
sweet sat up straight and strong, but wher
they got out towards Dexter's she BROKE
Town and put her arm around her boy, and
| her head on his shoulder, and sobbed and
sobbed and moaned and moaned. As she
was 80 strange and weak Perry felt himself
growing strange and strong; and he said tt

While they were standing there he could see
his mothers heart beating and shaking her
dress. and it seemed as if he could hear it
throb. He began to suspect something and
wished he were at home-or dead.
They heard a mans footsteps inside. and
his mother dropped her veil IN a hurry.
Then a beautiful man came and opened the
door. He looked old to Perry, but now he
knows he is not old at all.

They went into a room with a long mar

NJ mother took him with her and
OIV went to Dexter (they lived In
Michiean) TO the pension Office, and got
some piece of paper or other, and took
il right over to the savings bank.
where they left it and got something written
in u little book she had with her. And
once each year she went to thar same bank
and asked for her mortgage. and they gave
her a bit Of paper to sign and wrote ome
thing in her little book and anne away.
Perry had never asked hsV RP.oout these
things. They had been going on SO long
and so regularly that il seemed as natural
as going to church. They just took a fne
morning and drove off through the beauti-
full oak openings past the Faquelle farm
and the Sigler farm and the Larue farm,
and all the others that he knew, because
their boys came to his school. and then on
across the ford and past the lonesome part
of the road, and then the farms near Dex-

But one day things wers different. 1t

old friend of hers. 1t was before daylight
that she called him up and told him that
she had already fed and harnessed Dolly
and MIXED old Brindle and turned her out,
and fed the pigs and got the breakfast, and
he must hurry and eat ID 80 that they could
start before sun-up. He said she must
have been up all night, and she answered
that it didn't make much difference when
she got up 30 far as sleep went.
The stars were still shining when he put
the bars up behind the wagon, and they
logged along. 1t was a very lovely time of
day; not a light in the village, nor a sound
except the BOOSTERS Growing at each other,
now one close by, then en- answer from
away off down by the mill, where you could
even hear the water leaking aroun the big
wheel. and 30 on, and Ingham's big dog came
bouncing and barking out, but wagged his
tail as soon as he found out who it was, nj
after that signal all the dogs at all the
farms were awake and ready for them. And
when they passed the big schoolhouse in the
edge of the woods, my! how Lonesome it
looked.
1t would have been a nice ride, only his

about something. ready to cry-or laugh

poured out a little cold tea from the bottle
and drank it out of the tin cup. And she
seemed to want Dolly to trot ell the time
