ferred the office to that of Senator, and it
was not until the last minute before his

 He woke with start. Some one was in the room. He heard a step behind him. He came to his feet quickly. a wild light in his eyes. He faced his brother Richard.
 Late ill the afternoon Marion had telegraphed' to Richard that Frank was coming. He had been away visiting. some poor and sick people, and when he came back to Greyhope it was too late to catch the train. But the horses were harnessed straightway, and he was driven into town-a three hours drive. He had left the horses at the stables, and having a latchkey had come ill quietly. He had seen the light in the study and guessed who was there. He entered and saw his brother asleep. He watched him for a moment and studied him. Then he moved away to take off his hat, and as he did So stumbled slightly. Then it was Frank walked, and for the first time in five years they looked each other in the eyes. They both stood immovable for a moment, and then Richard caught Franks hand ill both of his and said: "God bless you, my boy; God bless you! I am glad you are back!'
 "Dick, Dickp' was the reply, and Franks other hand clutched Richard s shoulder in his strong emotion They stood silent for a moment longer, and then Richard recovered himself. He waved his hand to the chairs. The strain of the situation was little pain ful for them both. Men are shy with each other where their emotions are in play.

He relieves every trying situation by some frivolous and selfish occupation, as of dismembering partridge or mixing punch.
