all her suffering she knew she could new
err forget him. She could never forget
those dark ewes as they looked tpndrrly
into hers-yes. i'll all the years to come
there would be one bright spot she could
remember.
One morning she watched for his COM
ing in vain. a new doctor came in his
place. and. although Millicent would
have rather died than confess it, two
great tears rolled down her cheek. One
of the nurses came to her and placed a
lnrg" bouquet in her thin hands. "Thcy
are for you," she said. "Shall put them
in watcr?' Millicent Eazed thOughtfully
at them and wondered where they came
from. Suddenly tiny piece of paper

How happy she was. and how she long
ed for his return. She dared not think
of what he had to tell her. The days
passed quickly, and one morning she was
surprised when the doctor told her that
in week she would be able to leave the
hospital. The week passed. and the day
of her departure came. Where was she
to go? She had only few dollars and
no work. Over and over again she tried
to think. Yes. she had better go to her
old lodgings. The landlady was kind.
and she could pay her board for a few
weeks and then perhaps get employment.
