stove in one corner. a few cooking
utensils, an axe, piles OF wood. dilapi-
dated wearing apparel, and miscellane-
GUS articles OF small value. Slung from
two big hooks was the hammock in
which the hermit slept. The dirt and
disorder disguised the boys. and they
were about to leave when Thomas saw
on the only shelf in the one apartment
small Bible which had evidently been
placed there with care. He opend the
book and read on an imprinted page
next to the title page these words:
james A. Symington. From his friend
Mabel Il. Conroy." Thomas turned pale
and stared at the words, reading them
several times as II he were spell-bound.
He put the book back on the shelf and.
controlling with difficulty the intense
excitement under which he labored,

into the open air, and soon were be-
yond the borders OF the forest.
Thomas went 10 the home of his grand
mother, Mrs. Harrington. which was a
large and handsome mousse about three
miles distant from the abode OF Crazy
Jim. Mrs. Harrington was a widow,
eyed slxty-hve years, She had not lived
happily with her husband, and after
his death had retired 10 the country

The last remark. as well as the sad

Mrs. Harrington to relent. She thought
OF her own embittercd life and her
lonely old age. She remembered herself
as a bright. hopeful girl. full OF merrl-

Crazy Jim turned away and walked
TO the road. followed by the plying
eyes Of Mrs. Harrington. He was ra-
tional enough during the conversation,
but the talk had reached the haunting
memory OF his early misfortune, and
soon he was muttering wildly to him

After supper that day Mrs. Harrlng-
ton told her nephew about the call OF

boy not to continue to associate with
so singular a character, on the ground
that, although he might be the victim
OF great misfortune. he was not now
a suitable companion for a respectable
boy.

Thomas, which may cause you to re-
gard Crazy Jim differently than you
now do. have thought that perhaps
ought to keep the secret. as 1t might
do no good to reveal 1t. and might even
cause you pain, but now that Jim has

But, since you have told me this secret,
/ can see that there is a resemblance
that makes 1t just possible for me to
believe that he was once the handsome
youth whom knew"
A few days later Mrs. Harrington was
stricken with pneumonia. Finding that
her strength was rapidly failing she
called her nephew to her bedside and
said:
Il feel that am about to die and wish
you to do me one more favor. On the
top Of the bureau in this room you viii

/ was young ard beautiful. Carry 1t to
James Symington and ask him in return
for it 10 send me the Bible gave him"
Thomas did as he was hidden. The
hermit received the picture In an ecstasy
OF delight, and could not gaze at It
enough. He readily gave the Bible with
his blessing TO carry to the woman he
had 30 faithfully loved.
When Mrs. Harrington died the little
book lay by her side; and the day after
the funeral Thomas visited the hut OF
the hermit. and found him lying dead In
his hammock, his glazed eyes directed
towards the photograph. which was still
retained by the fingers OF one stiffened
hand.

lovers who had been so long parted ana

He Is love-cracked. they say. 1t is
the usual story which we hear about
these old hermits who bury themselves
in woods and caves. 1t is related that
when he was a young man he was un-
commonly smart and handsome. He
dressed WELL indeed, was almost a
DUDE, although to look at him now one
can scarcely believe 1t. His folks were
respectable. but not wealthy. He fell
in love with the daughter Of million
aire. and she was just as much in love
as he was: but her cruel father sepa-
rated them. and a few years later she
married somebody else. Jim became mel
ancholy and partially lost his wits
After his parents died he wandered away
from home, and has had no one to care
for him since. For twenty years he has
lived in howell in the midst of a forest

Robert ceased talking as Jim was
about to pass the boys,

There was a pathos in the trembling
tones which prevented the boys from
disturbing Jim with further questions,
A few days later the two friends VS.
tied the hermit's abode. He was not
there. but the door was open and they
walked In. II did not take long to sat
