uniformed, unframed, unSchOoled in tact,
diplomacy, or any of the amenities of adult
life, he could not even arouse himself to
ask of her. or to take his mother into his
confidence and obtain the relief of knowing
the worst. 1t was not that his emotions
took the form of anxiety so much as they
crystallized into a sense of loss,--a sense
of something taken from him, that he could
neither find nor name. One morning he
saw her in her seat, pale and wan and
thin, and the sense of loss left him. He
was content now that she was near him,
and fretted no more, even suppressing
curiosity as to the nature of her sickness.
Then came his turn: two weeks in bed,
fevered and delirious at times, thinking
of her in lucid moments, talking of her
to a puzzled mother when the delirium
grpped him, and surviving at last through
careful nursing, to return to his seat in
school as pale and thin as was the girl.
One glance he took, and his content came
back. She paid him no attention, not even
joining the others in the friendly looks of
welcome he received, and he took up his
studies at the foot of all the classes
his divinity just above him.
1T is rather funny" commented one
class teacher, with smile, that the two
best scholars are at the foot. Johnny
Bridge went behind when Zenie Malcolm
was sick, and Zenie Malcolm went behind
when Johnny Bridge was sick. You two
must study and catch up"
He felt curious elation, but did not
look at her; so he did not notice that her
cheeks were flaming red.
And now there came to him a real, or
at least tangible, sense of loss. A small
sister, his pet, whose dolls he had mended
and whose tears he had dried. fell heir to
the sickness that he had survived, and
he followed her little BODY to the grave
His grief was normal, untortured by boyish

and other girls applauded his proves.
But she must have learned from these
other girls; nothing else could explain
the shy little smile she gave him as he
came into school one day, both eyes
blackened and his coat torn almost in
half. She had never even looked him
in the eyes before, and he went forward
at the stern call of the principal with
glorifed joy in his soul that carried him
triumphantly through the pain of his
punishment
With his enterprise in playground
friction came an enterprise in study.
He easily distanced the rest, winning
prizes and standing near the head in all
classes. With his advancement came a
change of seat, and he found himself near
her; in a position where. by slight
turning of his head. he could catch a
glimpse of the pure, clean cut little face
in its gold hued framing. But she never
returned these glances He never dared
hope that she would; so he never tried to
make her acquaintance.

He worshped her more while actually seeking her

from her vicinity. He would play truant occasion

dragged back by longing and hunger to be near
