Or. Best, the old professor and king
of the medical school, was talking eagerly
20 a pleasant-faced, slight young student
who stood before him. The young man
had taken his degree and received his
diploma only the day before He had grad
uated at the top of his class, and as DR..
Best had said 10 one of his fellow profess
sors, they sat together signing the
diplomas, he was the only man in the
fesSion.
DR.. Best was a New York physician of
wide reputation who had kept his profess
sorshp in the medical school of one OF
the small inland colleges, both because 1t
was his own college and because the rev
weeks which his lectures covered gave him
almost the only vacation that he could
manage to get through the long hard
worked years.
Pm not so sure that I won't take you
into partnership, my boy he said, after
ed to fail THAT is, if you will take a
few months first in the - hospital where
I'll get you a grand chance. You ought
not to bury yourself in a country prac-
with your gift. I'll push you along as fast
as 1 can if you'll come to New York"
The younger man drew back his fine
head with a sudden eager gesture-a
strange, wistful look shone in his eyes.
He knew we'll enough all that the doc
tors generous offer and fatherly affec-
tionateness meant; fame and money and
all delightful social advantages were put
easily within his reach He was reverent
of the world of art and of letters, and of
a mans best knowledge and close &C
quaintance with affairs. But he could not

familiar upland country, the dark hills,

was many a pour soul that felt unbe-
friended now. and uncompanioned, with
no one to look to for help spiritual or
material. And as for DIR. Ashurst's own
household, the sorrow of poverty was add
ed to sorrow itself. The mother and her
two children were left really poor. John
Ashurst always hoped to leave his family
a good sum Of money, to buy a comfort
able life insurance before he should be
taken away, but the necessities of the mo-
ment always hid the fear of the future
He had lost what money he had by the
failure of bank, and he had never been
provident. 1t was the rainy day of the
moment and not of the future with which
he concerned himself. Now that the
small bills that could be collected were
all paid, many accounts having never
been kept at all and still more forgiven
it was a poor dependence, and the girls
were wondering what they could possibly
do. One had inherited her fathers gift
of teaching, and had gathered little
school, but it was more a thing of love
than of business and of late she had TAX
en- the district school near at hand, and
her poor pay was the mainstay that was
left. They had always felt so rich all
their lives that they did not know how to
feel poor, exactly. In the late years when
DR.. Ashurst had been sent for far and
wide, and now and then large fee came
in his way, they had begun to feel like
people of fortune. And only the last
Thanksgiving day, the fortnight before his
three days illness began. what joy thew
had in making happiness for many poor
households! The old chaise had gone it's
rounds with high heaped mound of bene-
factions under the buffalo robe, and this
old woman must have this thing to make
her happy, and the other something else.
