care of the case, and the minute the doctor saw it he growled out something
 about that being the proper treatment. l He quickly went to work and accept 1 ed the help of the young woman as 8 1 matter of course. Stuart and Andrew
 stood silently by, assisting a little as 1 the doctor asked for things. Hell nev
 CT want to sit for his photograph again." remarked the doctor grimly, as
 he finally paused and rose to his feet
 after doing all in his power. ''This
 strike is bringing me in a lot of unsolic
 ited practice. I suppose can send my l bill in to the state for this case. But if
 the troops begin to fire into the miners
 shall go bankrupt sewing them up l and saving off their heads and legs for 1 nothing. Thank you, madam" The doc l tor turned to the figure in the Salvation Army costume as she stood calmly looking down at the still unconscious officer. You're a good one to help. You
 have been a nurse or I'm mistaken"
 "Yes, sir; I served a full term in Bellevue" The doctor looked at her with added
 respect. You have the touch of &
 lady, he said politely. That was the
 height of compliment from him.
 q am one," replied the young woman demurely. Stuart thought she smiled
 faintly. She had naturally serious
 face, but at times it could be remarka-
 bly, winning in it's sudden lighting up
 of the personality.
 The doctor coughed to hide his en-
 barrassment at the reply and then said
 Ao So&
 these gentlemen here, laGy," he added,
 sith ludicrous hesitation, 'ff knew your name."
 'I am Miss Dwight. I am with the army here for the present." she an- swered with perfect self possession.
 This is MT. Duncan, the owner of the Champion mines, and this is MT. Burke, the minister of St. John's,'' said the doctor, turning to Stuart and An drew.
 She turned and bowed quietly, while the doctor busted himself with his pa hent again.
 You are Miss Dwight, the daughter of Allen Dwight" asked Stuart eager ly. The minute he spoke he wished he could recall his words.
 But the exclamation seemed to affect the young woman only for moment. Then she answered, ''Yes; Allen Dwight is my father" She added while a slight color swept over her pale face: You played the part of brave man today, MT. Duncan. I want to thank you in behalf of the poor fellows who seemed to me so like sheep with out shepherd. How Christ would have looked on them with compass sionr'
 Her gaze was out of the window past Stuart, who was standing near it. The square was crowded with the men. Some one had gone up into the stand and was speaking. Stuart felt as nev- CT before what a sad and thrilling sight a great unguided multitude was. For the first time in his life he felt able to look at 1t through Ghrist's eyes. But he was also agitated over his meeting with Rhena Dwight. She had turned to the doctor and in a low tone asked a question. The doctor nodded his head, and she went out. She did not return, and Stuart, after seeing that every thing possible was being done for the sufferer, started for home.
 On the way he had leisure to recall the facts which the excitement of the past days crowded out of his mind; that Allen Dwights daughter had some three years before while Stuart was in college surprised and astounded the so- ciety circle in New York of which she had been the leader by suddenly leav ing her home and all her fashionable 4< So1y Av- my. He remembered what sensational 1 appeared in the papers. Above l all he recalled wildly the effect the l news had on her brother, who at the 1 time was a classmate of Stuart. He l could also remember talking it over l with Louise when he came home for l ais Christmas vacation.
 Louise was shocked as deeply as it l was in her capacity to be shocked to l mink girl who had such a career be- l lore her, gifted with such talents, mu- ,ical and social, should give them all ID to fling her life away in the slums l ,ver horrid, dirty, drunken, miserable people. "She must be crazy" said Lou SC. "Her father was right in saying, f the report was true, that Rhena nev- 1T should come into his home again as lis daughter" His aristocratic family were very deeply disgraced ,y the event. His own standing in so- .iety was under a cloud. He felt the ;hame of it with great bitterness and lever alluded to it.
 All this Stuart called up as he neared lome. He had never met Miss Dwight before and knew nothing of her req ons for the complete change in her fife. He wondered thoughtfully if it lad not been something like the expe- fence that had come to himself that 
 Louise met him with the news that lis Aunt Royal, who had been expected
