The Parting Hour.

To Lieut.. Brant these proved days
of bitterness. He had called twice
upon Hampton, both times finding the
wounded man propped up in bed, very
affable, properly grateful for services
rendered. yet avoiding all reference to
the one disturbing element between
them.
Once he had accidentally met MAZDA,
but their brief conversation left him
more deeply mystified than ever, and
later she seemed to avoid him alto.
gether One day he deemed her but
an idle coquette; the next, a warm
hearted woman, doing her duty brave
ly. Yet through 1t all her power over
him never slackened.
