I supper" said Bannister, handing him
a silver coin.
The tramp looked from the money
to the giver.
II should like to send this back to
| you when can" he said. "Will you
tell me your name?"
"You needn't mind, but my name is
Bannister. We are staying here for
the rest of the month. Goodnight"
He waved his hand and was gone.
The tramp leaned over gate, think
ing. He could see the chimneys of the
house that had been his uncle's, the
house he had hoped would one day be
his own. II belonged to Charley Hud-
son now. So he had been told in the
town.
But Margaret had preferred him,
though some called him a neer-do-
we'll. Was It possible that she had been
waiting for him all these years?
The very thought made his heart
burn. II seemed impossible. It was
too much to expect from any girl. Yet
that man-what was his name? Ban
nister-he had seemed to think it quite
likely. He must find out. He must
get some decent clothes so that he
might make inquiries. Some one In
the town must know what had become
Of her.
Another thing-he must send back
that money to Bannister as soon
as possible. But how was he to find
him? He knew the mans name, but
not his address; and he was only
summer visitor He might not be able
to repay the money for weeks. He
turned and began running after Ban
mister as we'll as his clumsy shoes
would let him. A little ahead there
was a bend in the road, and he felt
sure that once around that corner he
would catch sight Of him.
He turned the corner, and saw Ban
mister, but he was not alone. A girl
in light gray costume was coming
rapidly to meet him. Two children
darted from her side, and outrunning
her, threw themselves into their
fathers arms.
The two. the man and the woman,
came close together. She held up
her face, and he stopped and kissed
it.
It was not till then that he saw
her face. Margaret!
His heart stood still. He would not
believe 1t. Had not the man said!
But, of course, he could not know.
| Was It Margaret? He did not feel
quite sure, now that her back was
turned to him. But he felt that he
must know at once.
At one side of the road there was
a thick hedge, and a field on the
other side of it. The tramp ran BACK
to the gate, climbed over II, and then
ran. under cover Of che hedge, so as to
pass beyond the little group. There
was no difYiculty about 1t. The hedge
screened him completely. He could
see them coming slowly along. The
woman had her hand on her compan
ions arm, and she smiled into his face

idea OF any girl waiting five years for
an absent lover. without a word to
show that he yet cared for her. He
could have laughed at the idea of any
woman waiting for the human wreck
az MS side. He could have laughed at
the eager look on the mans half-savage
race as he put his absurd question.
But there was pathetic look in the
brown eyes, and Bannister did not
laugh. AS he kept on looking the in
clination to laugh died away altogether.
Instead, he gave the answer that
seemed to him at the moment the only
possible one to give.
"A girl would wait ten years-twenty
years--for the man she loved. That is,
1t she were true woman. I am GER
tain of It. / know it by MY mean am
sure OF 1t, from women I have known.
Time makes no difference in their love.
And absence only makes them love

tramp, In a choking voice.

Jim Bannister jumped out Of the
train, his black bag in his hand, and
his eyes went ranging up and down
the platform In search Of his wife and
children. They generally were there
to meet him when he came down from
town on Friday evening. Finding that
they were not visible, he left the sta
ton and took the road that led away
from the town and the harbor towards
the new suburb which had OF late years
set up in business as watering place.
It was cheap and healthy, and the boys
liked to 60 down to the harbor and
see the ships and talk to the sailors.
Bannister soon got out OF town, for
he was walking fast, but rs the road
began to rise his pace became slower
