was just beginning to realize dimly
that life Is not one thing, bnt many

He began to talk calmly with his
wife concerning what he would do that
day and was still talking about it when
James came in with a doctor, who at
once went up stairs. He was Just from
the scene of the accident and bore
marks of hard nights work. His
first glance at Clara was hard and pro-
fessional. but as lie looked he grew
very grave, and an expression of seri-
ous surprise came over his weary face.
He laid his hands on the girls eyes and
