raised the cover. The forlorn atom
Of cathood raised herself, torn, bloody,
encrusted with dirt, the bruised paw
extended as if entreating aid, while
she put the other on the edge of the
basket and loked straight into the pitt
full and bewildered eyes Of the girl.
"Father," cried Jaroslav, inpatient
ly, "what were you thinking of?' He
stopped at a gesture from his father
The girl had taken the kitten UP so
gently that it's fear vanished, and
with the basket under her arm, slip
ped away to wash and bind up the lit
tie patient. Fortunately there were
no bones broken; bath removed the
blood and dust, and the hurt paw was
soon bound up. Wrapped in warm
flannel, while Hilda brushed and
combed the beautiful fur, the kitten
gave weary purr and fell asleep.
"My son." said the old man gently,
*'if thy mother had lived thou wouldst
have known more of the mother heart
There were many beautiful cats, but
I bought the child the only one that
sorely needed her It is small thing
truly, but even the sorrow of kitten
may help one to forget ones own

asked for the address of the fancier.
that she might buy more catnip and
other supplies.
When Hilda explained her errand.
the old man leaned far across the
counter, clutching it with his lean,
brown old hands.
"Did she live?" he asked, piteously
Did she really liver"
"Live?" answered Hidla "You
should see her She is the prettiest
and the worst spoiled kitten in Wienp
The fancier sat down and buried his
face in his hands, "Du lieber Gott!'
he sohbed Zach, Du 1eiber Colt!
She was my granddaughter kitten"
he went on, when he could control
himself little "She ran away, and
the dogs chased and tore her"
"And your grandchild is dead?'
asked Hilda, full of sympathy.
He shook his head IT know not.

and te1ephoned to Hilda to call for
her seat at the box office and he would
Join her later at the concert, Or at
least be there in time to take her
home It was very late when he came
down to the rotunda in the Kaiser
Hche Prater, so late that he did not
take his seat, but stood at the back of
the vast hall.
Finally he deserted Hilda. She
was sitting little apart, and her face
was very white, as if she had put ire
mendous strain upon herself. The last
number was a medley of national airs,
and as the band crashed into "The
Star Spang1ed Banner" she rose and
remained standing, to the astonish-
ment of her neighbors She had for.
gotten them, the place, herself, every
thing. She was an American, listen
ing to the bug1ecal1 Of her own coun
try, and as the notes gave way to
those of the Austrian national air,
she buried her face in her hands, con-
scious for the first time that she was
stranger in strange land.
Her cousin, watching her, knew that
at last the dread Heimweh had come
She was merry that night, SO gay and
full Of fancies that her uncle laughed
again and again at her jests; and it
was not until she had gone to her
room that the younger man told Of
the little scene in the concert hall
"She has been fighting tears all the
evening"" he said, in conclusion "She
is so homesick that she would give ali
Wien for one hour among her noun
tains. What shall we do, father"
"Sha11 we send for her Aunt Anna,
or her Cousin Elschen?" ventured his
father he1pless1y.
''That would be no use They could
not help her We must find her some
thing else to interest her; but she is
SO different he stopped with a
shrug and a gesture. Something in
the outhung hands reminded the older
man of the day so long ago on ship
board and his face frightened.
"r have it," he said, de1ightedlyF
Tomorrow morning shall buy her
the prettiest cat in Wien; you shall
see. That will comfort her"
The next morning found him in a
tiny store, far from the fine shops and
magnificent restaurants It was din
gy little place, filled with bird-cages,
goldfish, tame rabbits and in a back
room, cats and dogs, which eyed each
other warily, with occasional grow1s,
Kisses and banks.
The animal fancier was expatiating
| upon the beauties of the cats that lay
in sleek and sleepy luxury about them,
and Herr Dornheim was hesitating
between a jet-b1ack with toDaz eyes
and white one with most engag-
/ ing little pink mouth, when he heard
a low moan Of pain.
The face Of the fancier turned a
little more ashen, and there was a
pinched look about his mouth as he
said, in answer to the glance Of sur
prise:
"It is-a kitten that THAT I found
in the alley. The boys and the dogs
had nearly done for her, and 7 have
had no time-no. do not look at her!
She is most unpleasant sight"

Colorado, he left his motherless
daughter, Hilda, to his brother, Helm
rich Dornheim of Vienna Hilda was
Western-born, and the strange uncle
who came all the way to the Rockies
after her regarded her with mingled
emotions. She was so strong and
self-reliant, yet so afectionate; SO in
dependent, yet SO eager to please; so
child1ike in spite Of her seventeen
years, yet SO womanly in her black
garments.
"If, now, she were going to johann
mes or Anna,' he reasoned, "it would
be different She could not be lonely
with all those young folks around her;
but with only Jaroslav and me, in my
dull old house, with prim old Katia,
ach, the He1mweh will come in spite
Of usp
He tried to prepare her for the
change as the steamer rleared Ham
burg but she slipped her hand in his
and looked up with that "old' look
that made him feel she was woman.
Don't worry" she said gently,
"don't worry, Uncle Heinrich. Ever
since die Mutter died I have been
used to being alone with just my
father, and | would rather be with you
and Cousin Jaroslav than with lot
of young folks who were gay and

be sad, I cannot help it sometimes,
and I should not like to spoil their
good times. Besides, shall see them
often, NIGHT wahr?" Then with little
laugh, eff I do get homesick, Uncle
Heinrich, please will you get me a
kitten? Every time I think of my big
gray Tomasso that left with Mrs
Schmidt at Montrose there comes a
lump in my throat.
But after a whole year in Vienna
Hilda had never once shown sign
of the dreaded inconsistencies. She
had fitted into her uncle's silent
household almost like a daughter of
the house, and although old Katia was
disposed to look askance at her
Americanerin ways, Hi1da soon won
her over by her praise for the great
and wonderful city of Wien, where
she found something new and inter
'eesting every day. Fortunately Hilda
had spoken German ali her life so she
found little difficulty in getting about
by herself.
The girl wandered all over Maria
hilf where one may yet see the old
fashioned houses that remain from
the middle ages; she saw the Hoher-
Markt on Christmas eve, when it
looked ike a scene from a panto-
mime; she spent weeks in the CALLER
les, days in the museums, and many a
long entranced hour in the gardens.
She had the usual disappointment
when she learned that the real "Beau-
tiful Blue Danube" does not flow di-
rect1y through Vienna. but she forgot
it when she heard Strauss himself
lead his own orchestra
One day as her cousin went to his
Office he noticed as he turned down
Josephine Strasse haring posters that
told Of the European tour Of famous
American band He had a German
contempt for American music. but as
he read the name he remembered
