early and gone for her usual evening
gossip with some friendly neighbor, lsav-
ing the tea to boil black and thick. The
slice of bread drying on the table and
the cold vegetables were no more appe-
tizing than the tea, and Georgiana, with
angry impatience for the old woman for
whom she had done so much, went to the
sitting-room too tired to prepare sup
per for which she had no appetite.
She lighted the lamp, and her eyes fell
upon the letter white and clean against
the faded green table cover, and bulky as
had been those she had received almost
weekly for more than three years.
As if by wave of a magic wand, the
room became warm and bright; the beat
ing of the rain against the window pane
was only the tinkling accompaniment of
the music of her heart, and Martha was
dear, good soul; for had 1t not been for
her Georgiana would not have had this

every pulse-beat. Patiently, yet persist
emily, she applied and forced him to
swallow the remedies, noting with exact
ness the least effect; she never paused,
never for one moment ceased her yigi-
lance. Other patients about her were suf-
fering for attention, but for all of her
they might as well have been mummies
of a thousand years.
Once as she passed a bed lean hand
clutched and held her dress.
"Oh, please, nurse, please, a drink of
water" She looked at him wonderingly,
as if she did not understand, then put the
cup she carried to his lips. When he
had drained it he still held her dress;
mechanically she Strengthened his bed,
turned his pillows, grooming over to him
in a soft voice, Poor fellow, yes, poor
fellow"
But suddenly she remembered, and
snatch.ng the cup she flew to refill it, and
came painting, almost gasping, trembling,
for fear he had gone while she was away.
He was no stronger but no weaker
she was sure be was no weaker, and she
kept OIL.
The sitting atmosphere of the early
night gave place to that coolness and
damp which in Cuba always comes be-
fore the early morning. Everywhere the
leaves and vines dripped with water.
The restless, feyered ones had grown
quiet under its influence, and Joseph
Linden slept the sleep Of returning life,
unconscious that Georgiana GoOdspeed
knclt by his side, her face all glorious
in its great thankfulness. Her prayer
was from her heart only, for her lips did
not move. She leaned her head forward,
and she, too, slept.
1t was still early morning when the
! physician entered the hospital and started
with surprise as he neared the bed of
| Col. Linden, his professional eye telling
! him at once that his old friend would
live.
The nurse knelt by the bedside.
Poor thing" he muttered; she's tired
| to death" He touched her hand, but did
not wait for her to wake, but stepped
| quickly outside and brought in two men.
