For months lay in dark. evil smelling places, before that day when I found myself once more in the blessed sunlight amid d babel of strange sights and sounds.

 After that night I did not see the master for many months; then one evening he came into the library, look ing older and sterner, with deep lines in his face After that he spent near ly all his evenings in the library, some times with friends, but oftener alone. reading or just staring straight ahead into the fire So the days rolled into weeks and the weeks into months and years until one evening the master came and stood for a long time look ing at the picture of woman and boy on the mantel. ''Three years to- night" he said slowly: three long years"
 The curtains of the doorway parted, and woman came forward part way into the room, a slender. graceful wom- an who carried her head haughtily. all though her lips Guivered with nervous ness.
 The master turned abruptly.
 "Elzabeth.s he cried.
 "You are surprised to see me lere?'
 'Elza abeth"' he said again in daZed astonishment, then: "The boy? What is wrong with the boy?' he cried sharply.
 She flushed painfully Ut is because of him I am here. He has some claim on you still even though I-have none
 She stopped abruptly and walked over to the fireplace. then turned and looked at him with proud, appealing eyes.
 Il have not money enough to educate the boy properly" she said simply. "and there is no one l could come to but you-hs father
 He did Hot answer her, but with one quick step forward took her hands in his.
 "Elizab abeth," he said almost fercely, "I love you! I want you"'
 Trembling, she leaned against the ta- ble.
 "Love me? After all did-the di- vorce-the' boy
 'sThe fault was mine. I loved you through it all. I have always loved you love you now
 He looked searchingly at the sweet, averted face, then, with quick, happy movement, drew her close.
 "It was not until afterward that knew how dearly I loved you,' she said, with little catch like a sob ill l her voice
 That was the dawn of a new era The old silence is gone and laughter and the soft sound of happy voices echo through the hou,e. 1 am fond of l them all tie master with his merry laugh, the mistress with her soft dark eyes and gracious ways. the boy who brings in troops of his admiring friends to see me.
