1t was week later, and on a glo-
rious afternoon Evan Monteith had
been able for the first time to walk
from his room downstairs unaided.
II can no longer make my lameness
an excuse for troubling you with my
presence" he said laughingly to Day,
as she smilingly placed an easy chair
for him in the window which COM
manded q magnificent view of Abbot
Head. the distant crag of Yesnabil, and
the wide stretch of summer-blue sea.
II must not trespass on your kindness
much longer, Miss Day"
Days heart sank suddenly-sank
very low and very rapidly.
you must not go until my brother
gives you permission" she said, in a
low tone.
II think he will do so II ask him, :"
answered Monteith, In SO marked a
tone that Day looked UP quickly. ut
is easy to see when one Is liked and
and trusted" Evan went on slowly.
For some reason your brother, who
is, think, one OF the best and truest
men I know, neither likes nor trusts
me, Miss Halcrow"
How can you imagine such a
thing?" cried Day, her face growing
first rose-red, then very pale "It is
unkind Of you to imagine it."
1T is true, nevertheless" answered
Evan Monteith. II do not know who
is q blame, Miss Day, but can hard
ly think 1t Is your brother, who Is both
just and generous. In that case, 1t
must be my fault, and, II 1t is, it is o
fault which l cannot help. Circum-
stances are against me. and prevent me
trying to remove any prejudice there
may be against me in his mind"
Day sat silent, her sweet eyes cloud
ed and her lips dropping. Somehow
she had felt aware of what Monteith
now uttered since he had come to Alb
bots Head. Magnus was kind and
hospitable to him. as he could not help
being TO any one under his roof; but
there was want OF cordially In his
manner which showed that some In
tangible, invisible barrier existed be-.
tween him and his guest.

She. hurried away to get 1t ready,
while Magnus returned TO his patient.
When Day came in, bearing her little
tray, the dark eyes on the sofa met
hers with look of recognition. The
young man stretched out his hand and
took hers.
Il have no words with which to
thank you for the service you have
done me, Miss Halcrow-you and your
brother" He looked towards Magnus,
who was standing by the window, But

Il did nothing" said Day, blushing
softly and speaking in a low tone
nothing but what one human being
would have done for another. No one
would have left a fellow-creature ly-
ing outside exposed to such a terrible
storm, and not have tried to bring him
under shelter. You have nothing to
thank me for"
rs 1t nothing to thank you for
that you have saved my life?" he ask
ed earnestly. His voice was pleas
ant one to listen to-soft, mellow and
flexible; and the look in his dark eyes
made Days heart beat with such
strange emotion as she had never
known before.
II do not know IL can ever show
you how deeply grateful 1 am. Miss
Halcrow; but if live, pray may yet
be able to do So"
At this moment Magnus. who had
not yet spoken, came forward.

sister has done for you; she would
have done that much for any one" he
said. And there was tone In his voice
that the other was quick to notice.
And now, as hope you will accept
our hospitality for a day or two-as,
indeed, / think you must until your
foot is all rights 1t too much to ask
you your name? You already know

Was there an almost imperceptible
pause ere the young man answered? A
momentary embarrassment and hest
tation? So al least 1t seemed to Mag
nus Halcrow. Then the young man
spoke:
you must excuse me, DR.. Halcrow,
for not having mentioned 1t sooner. Let
my unfortunate accident be my excuse.
My name Is Evan Monteith."

Platform Adopted.

I His reference to Hawaii and the pres
| ence of representatives of that new acqui-
sition brought the delegates to their feet
| in lusty greeting to the Hawaiians.
| When he referred to the "infamy" in Ken
tucky the delegates from that State yelled
their approval, and the other States added
sympathetic demonstration.
Mr.. Lodges references to the policy Of
the Government toward Cuba and the
Philippines brought out frequent manifes-
tations of approval His brilliant tribute
to the American soldiers fighting in the
tropics closed with the well-rounded SEN
tence: They are our soldiers and we will
sustain them" 1t was the signal for q
hearty demonstration.
Senator Quay offered an amendment to
the rules. This embodied q proposition
to reduce the representation from the
several States, giving one delegate for
each 10000 votes cast, with four dele
gates-at-large for each State. There were
calls for Mr.. Quay to take the platform
but he shook his head, and sent to the
clerks desk a lengthy statement, showing
the effect of the proposed new rule.
After some discussion Mr.. Quay's mo-
tion finally prevailed that Rules 1 and -,
with his amendment, go over until next
day, after which the other rules were
agreed to without dissent.
Senator Fairbanks of Indiana Chair
man of the Committee on Resolutions, was
recognized to present the platform to the
Convention. The Indiana Senator re-
ceived fattering reception as he mount
ed the stage, and minor matters occupied
the Convention when he had finished.
