she called her dog and went out into
the fields, tracing over again all the
paths through the meadows and the
woods where she had wandered with
Brian. 1t was a sweet delight to her;
she recalled his words, his looks, his
slightest gesture; each field, each stile,
each tree seemed to bring back the swift
days of enchantment more wildly to her.

CHAPTER VIII.

he had expected a terrible scene OF
grief and anguish-he had pictured to
himself how she would cast herself down
and weep; how the small, childish frame
would be shaken with sobs and the beau
tiful, grave eyes dimmed and blotted out
with her tears. All the way down from
town he had dreaded what was before
him, for he was one of those men to
whom the sight Of woman's tears Is ter
rible.
What really happened was so extra
ordinarily different to what he expected
that it seemed to him that he must be
dreaming.
Il know" Kitten had said; "he is
dead" Then she turned round and went
back into the dining room. He heard
the loud wailing cry of the old woman
behind him, but from the dead mans
daughter not sound. Her lips framed
one word, which was barely audible.
"WhenY'
Last night-it was quite sudden-he
was lecturing at Burlington House. 1t
was all over in one moment; he could
not have suffered at all, Kitten; we
must be thankful for that. He was
speaking, and then he fell forward, and
It was over"
"And there was no time? I could not
have gone to him?"
Impossible. 1t was all over in a few
seconds. Your father expected this,
Kitten; he knew his death might be sud-
den. He had spoken to me about it
when l was here"
"Oh, yes; know, it was his heart"
Brian was surprised. "You knew

mo; pretended not to know; it would

The extraordinary self-control with
which she spoke, the intense calm of her
whole manner, terrified him. She looked
so small and childlike,' and her words
were 80 old and impassive Brain
thought he would sooner have had to

natural tranquility.
He moved nearer to her. "My poor
little girl, what can l say, what can |
do to comfort your"
You can say nothing, do nothing; it's
ridiculous-yes ridiculous to say that to
me. have lost my ALL" For a mo-
ment she flung up her arms with a
despairing gesture, then she paused, and
they fell again nerveleSsly by her side:
"And you talk about comfort! Unless
you can give me back my dead, you can
do nothing!"
She moved away toward the door, with
the slow, lingering step Of person who
is very Ill, but she turned back again to
say to him: "You must be very hungry,
eat something; l will send Keziah to
you; your room is ready, the same room,
you know"
He watched her Chamber painfully up
the staircases to her own bedroom door.
A sort of terror of what would follow
possessed him. 1t is this sort of grief,
he told himself with horror, that un-
hinges the mind and drives people into
brain fever or kills them outright. -

To Miss Laybourne, from B. Des-

Kitten stood reading the telegram
over again for the twentieth time; the
grave childlike eyes shone with an in
ward gladness, there was a peach bloom
upon her soft, delicate face.
He is coming to-nightw she repeated
to herself in whisper; tonight
shall see him again." And then she fell
to wondering a little, why it was that it
was he who had sent the telegram and
not her father, for, Of course, her father
was coming home too.
But my Daddy is so busy when he
is up in London" she told herself in
explanation, $50 many great people want
him, perhaps even the Queen herself
might have sent for him to Windsor.
Yes, that Is it, no doubt; after his lecture
last night he will be made more of than

say for certain what day, but 1t Is sure

''hs found Unexpectedly that he could
get away to-day and told Mr.. Desmond
to telegraph for him, for he has prob
ably gone to Windsor to see the Queen,
and then Mr.. Desmond said he would
come, too."
The day wore away happily enough.
Kitten rifled the garden for flowers 70
decorate her fathers study and to set
forth the simple supper table like a
royal feast She sang over her labors
and was as happy as a bird. The little
refrain kept ringing itself over and over
again In her heart.
He Is coming to-night-to-night I
shall see him" 1t was like peal of
joy bells within her.
She would see him! Oh, happy time
of youth and love when to see the one
dear face is enough to fill ones heart
with divine rapture! There comes a
time, after change and GOODNESS and the
cruelty Of life have swept over what
we love, when the sight of that one
dearest face, can only stab the heart
with pain, and fill the soul with hope.

every weight, and the sin which doth
so easily beset us, and let us run with
patience the race that is set before
us."-Hebrews xii, /.
Great things in this life are achieved
by those who can see far and deep.
The artist owes his popularity not to
the fact Of his materials, brushes and
pigments, but to the fact that he sees
in the human form, or in Nature, or
In the world Of ideas, what is hidden
from the less discerning sight Of his
fellows. So, again, the art, for exam
pie, of Shakespeare or of Scott de.
pends, in the first instance, on their
power Of sight, on their discernment,
on the internal play of passions In
human society, on their detection Of
pathos or humor, or whatsoever else Il
may be, where to the ordinary OBJ
server all would have possessed the
monotony Of common life. Once again,
the statesman differs from the mere
politician by his power of sight; he
sees all the circumstances Of the pres
ent In their vast complexity; he sees
the elements in the existing society
and polity which would, If they were
allowed free play, make for the COM
mon good. And he bends all energies
to bring about the necessary changes.
There comes times to all Of us-is Il
not so?-when we see with perfect
clearness what is right, what Is the
path Of duty, but when we feel our
selves alone and unequal to achieve It
1t Is then that we need the inspiration
of the thought Of this cloud of wit
nesses, that we may remember that in
striving after the right they that be
with us are more than they that be
against us. There Is one great society
alone Of the noble living and the noble
dead. At times the noble living seem
far from us and unable to help us, but
the noble dead are always with us;
being dead they yet speak, and at
times with power which the living
do not and cannot possess. And this
is largely because when we recall the
noble dead Of history we see how
much Of the faith Of the past has be-
come the substance the seeing reality
of to-day. Their eyes have tested
things unseen and proved them by real
faith.
May we, then, all see far and deep,
see far enough into the future to un-
derstand the present; see deep enough
into the present to pursue what Is
right with courage, knowing that we
are not alone, but that we are striving
after the right, and that they that are
with us are more than those that can
he against us. Let us run with endur-
ance the race which Is set before us,
looking unto Jesus the Author and
Finisher Of our faith.

give up all this for a stuffy lecture room
crowded with old men, to listen to a
learned discourse upon a subject which
he knew and cared nothing abouti He
hesitated. "Kitten would be pleased If
she thought you were there to hear me
speak," said Kittens father with a smile,
and Brian relinquished the ordinary joys
of life without a murmur, and took the
green admission card from the Profes-
sor's hand.

death are mysteries; who can tell how
soon the one condition may be over and
the other entered upon? 1t is a great
weight off my mind that you are to be
my child's lawful guardian; that
thought should make me live"
The lecture hall in Burlington House
was crowded that night, when, somewhat
late, in spite of hurried dinner, Brian
came in to take seat. The Professor
had already begun his lecture, yet his
eyes flashed a momentary greeting to-
ward him as he sat down.
Then, without listening over much to
the subject matter of the discourse,
Brian looked at the crowd of eager, ven
and ears. and wondered at the hushed ST.
lence as the great men around him hung
upon the naturalist's words. He heard
the voice, which was at first somewhat
feeble and faltering, suddenly warm to
the work. He saw how the face of the
pale old man fred into a glow Of glorious
enthusiasm for his subject; how his eyes
shone and cleaned. how his thin hand
trembled as he stretched 1t forth, how
the man became forgotten In the sage,
Then Of a sudden the slight, bent fig-
ure upon the platform swayed and tot
tered. There was cry, a smothered
murmur from the crowd, a rush of hasty
footsteps, and the sound Of dull, heavy
fall.
Brian, with the rest, sprang upon the
platform and forced his way among the
frightened throng. There went up a
great wall of terror and lamentation from
the bystanders.
Brian sank upon his knees and pill
lowed the white, still face upon his
breast.
"Air! Airv' he cried, hoarsely; "stand
back. and fetch a doctor!'
But neither heavens air nor human
doctor could aid Professor Laybourne
any more-the great naturalist was
dead.
