walked down the straight path beside
her husband, and the gate of the old
garden closed upon them forever.
Years sped away. The doctor, who
had never married, still lived on the
same street, and his housekeeper was
fretting and Tuning, partly because
there was n lady waiting to see him
and partly and more particularly be-
cause his dinner was growing crisp
and dry in the oven. She went to the
Office door and peeped in at the deli
cate looking little woman who had sat
patiently waiting for the last half hour.
"The Doctors late" she said. "but
p'r'aps you don't mind waitin. How
far did you say you'd come?
"From Grimby," replied the woman.
"Did you say DR.. Eaton was quite a
middle aged man" she added anx-
iously.
81 didn't say, ma'am, but ! s'pose
you'd call him so in pint Of age. All,
here he is now!"
From the window the lady could see
doctors gig draw up at the curb and
tall, dark man with grizzled beard
descend from it.
The doctor entered and looked in
quringly at his visitor with keen, kind
ly eyes. She rose and said little un.
certainly:
81 am afraid l have made mis-
take and that you are not the doctor
I'm looking for"
Somehow the face and manner Of the
woman brought to Dr.. Eaton's mind
an elusive memory Of a May morning
and a darkened room, with the scent
Of apple blossoms waited through clos
ed blinds, but the impression was
vague and transitory and was gone be-
fore he could attach any meaning to it.

he asked. "If you will tell me the
name of the man you want to find, per.
haps l can help YOU"
"I-don't know his name. I-don't
remember it," she said, with a flush
and little deprecatory smile. I've
been to great many doctors in Ellis
vile and have not found him. I'm
afraid he must have gone away-or be
dead"
DR.. Eaton looked puzzled and sat for
q moment, his eyes narrowed in
thought and his fingers beating noise
less tattoo on his knee. The woman
watched him silently, the color coming
and going in her pale face.
"You-you don't remember Mrs. |

eagerness.

peated, shaking his head. "She is not |

Is there any way you can find out

earnestly.

she got up and ran to his side.

Mrs. Grafton submitted smilingly to

As he glanced at her from time to time
the doctor saw the look Of relief in her
face deepen to one of quiet content.
When they had reached her lodgings,
he said. 81 come to Grimby sometimes"
he had always hated Grimby and
avoided it on a principle-"and ! shall
call and see you if may"
She smiled her assent
The doctor held the slender hand in
his for a moment and then let go with
a smile. He watched her walk up the
path in the setting sun.
"a good little thing-a pretty little
thing" he said to himself. "And it
was matter Of conscience with her"
Then he got thoughtfully into his gig

GUS fact that this hallucination is very
pronounced when the wound has healed
without complications; while on the
other hand there. is no hallucination
when the process of cicatrization has
been painful. Moreover, we find the
reason Of this difference in the greater
or lesser intensity of the sensations ex-
perienced. Still, if the dreams of alb
normally formed persons are charac-
terized by certain peculiarities, they
are none the less subjected, as are other
dreams, to the mysterious conditions of
the human organism, and, like other
dreams, their repercussion on the
wakeful state is identical.

straight path through the sunshine
tould not restrain a sigh of pleasure al
the beauty OF the scene. Young and
strong ana healthy, life to him was
good and delightful, though at that
very moment he might be hurrying
into the presence of death.
A pale young woman opened the door
in response to his knock, and without
any form Of greeting ushered him into
the chilly hall and went before him up
the stairs to the floor above.

The doctor stepped into the room.
He stopped for an instant until he
could accustom himself to the general
dlmness. The woman caught his arm.

him toward the bed.
The young man took the child's tiny
wrist between his fingers. Then he
leaned over and laid his ear against
the childs heart

pltifully, that your little boy

"But we will do what we can"
Then he issued some hasty directions,
and the two began to work silently
over the little creature, who lay motion
less and impressive under their hands.
After an hour the doctor ceased.
''Mrs. Grafton, you must send for
your husband"
''IIe is no better?" she asked, look
of agony creeping into her great dark
eyes.
"No better" he answered. "But he
does not suffer. Take comfort from
that"
She covered her face with her hands
for an instant and then said in dull,
quiet tone:
~ am a stranger in Ellisville and
have no friend or acquaintance here.
When Mr.. Grafton went away this
morning, the baby did not seem so very
ill, but he said he would ask you to

"Where is he" asked the doctor.
"Ile has an office on Front street.

and turned away.

existence of our constitutional republic
