ulous with heat. and there was no dew
upon the gras, 80 one might slccpany-
where. Nevertheless. | was glad to
find a big shallow box by the side a a
rough lane on the northern edge Of
the city. There were some bit. Of bag
ging and an old torn carriage robe
in it-probably the wrappings Of a
piano-and a thrill went through all
my bone. at the sight Of such a good
bed.

the long tramp since then had worn
the hunger out Of me. So lay upon
the ragged robe with the bagging for
a pillow. and stared out over the edge
Of the box with weary eyes. at the
lighted windows and the people
within.
No curtains were drawn on the rear
of the house opposite me. There were
three floors. and could see quite well
in all those %northward rooms, for !
had dragged my box upon a knoll
acros the lane, and so lay nearly a.
high As the second story.
1t seemed to be a sort OF apart
mcnt house, and those rooms at the
back were not for cooking or eating,
but looked like well furnished parlors.
Clearly enough the people on the diff
fcrent floors had no concern with the
lives above or below them; no more,
indeed. than with that oftheir chance
neighbor of a night. in the box upon
the knoll.
AT the uppcrmost window there
was a figure in white. reclining in q
posture - easy that my fret thought

girl. beautiful and admired, with
parents who took every care from her

world and wondrous hopes of what

dreams.
