u"til the llftIe life went out-Gracie
was dead Ah truly" from him that
hath not shall be taken even that he
hath.'
Poor Linda seemed turned to stone.
With dry, fearless eyes and set face,
she lay for hours Her mother tried
torouse her, but in vain. The minister
came with words of consolation and
hope, but Linda needed them not.
Her darling was dead; God was cruel
and unjust and all the consolng words
fell upon closed ears,
"tnless she weeps her mind will
give way" said the DOCTOR
The minister went away in despair,
but promised to send his wife, who
was a particular friend of Linda's,
to see her.
In II short while gentle little Mrs.
Lester came i'll. She sat down beside
Linda for IL few minutes and silently
smoothcd the fair hair with her soft
fingers. Then she told her to follow
her and, with her hand claspcd in Mrs.
Lestel's, Linda mechanically obcyed.
At the side of the couch where
Oracle lay they stopped. For a
moment they stood in silence. Then
Mrs. Lester began to talk Of the little
ones pretty ways, appealing to the
stricken heart, but still Linda's face
retained It's icy calm.
She looked at her darling lying there
with the sunny curiS scattered over the
pillow at the dimpled cheeks. but one
short week ago flushed with the roses
OF health-now icy with the touch of
death; ut the sweet lips whose music
WAS stllled forever at the tiny hands
which would meyer more caress her
cheek or clasp her neck as the sweet
voice murmured-"p'itty mamma,
Gwacie does love 'oo." Linda's heart
hardened. All. who but those who
have lost a loved one can realize how
bitter WAS her ori4fo She had loved
her darling So and now she was dead.
Linda fell that III her heart she could
almost curse God for being so cruel
Suddenly, softly, tendcrly Mrs.
Lester began to sing

Linda claspcd her hands in agony
Yes her darling, lying there in such

harm or trouble her. Nothing would
evcrmolc wake her from the long,
dreamlcss sleep. and no sin or tempta
ton could reach thepurc. sinless soul,
now safe-safc in tn" blessed. eternal
home beyond the stars. Linda had
not thought of that before, but now
she does, and her lips begin to culver.
Soft and low Mrs. Testers voice
sounded
Free from the blight of 5orrow"
Like flash Linda's thoughts flew
back over her own life. All, she
knew tie bitterness OF sorrow; she
had drained the cup to the last bitter
dregs. Her precious one was sayed
from its knowledge; God had taken
her from it all. lie was not 50 cruel,
after all. Tears quivcr upon her eye
lids and then roll down her checks.
Now the fountains are fully opened and
with burst come the precious, life
giving tears.
Mrs. Lester let her cry until the
burdened heart was relieved. Then
