 A trysting-pIace between the Risen One and his disciples had been selected. the hour of his appearing designated, and news of the appointment was being quietly cir eulated among the faithful in GaNlee. Perea, and Judea. Impetuoua Peter can not brook the interval of inaction. He must do some thing. Preaching Is prohibited. He will fain return to his old craft, of which sight of his boat and tackle reminds him. When he announces his intention. six of the apos- ties join him, glad to be occupied, and per- haps neding to replenish an empty purse. The night of toll Is fruitless. except in the interchange of thought concerning the absent Master, of whom the little silver, happy sea-" whose waves had kissed his feet, was a constant reminder. Tn the shadowy twilight stranger stands on the beach, and halls them with familiar in. quiry as to their success.

T am very truly and sinGsukg Erate- fui to you for your trust. But the fact is, I cannot go anywhere amongst people. Of course you understand that I am spessxing in confidence; to you alone and to none other."
 'Absolutelyw said Mir Stonehouse gravely Harold went on:
 T must be alone. I can only bear to see people on this ship because 1t is a necessary way to solitude" The old man said, his brows wrinkling in a puzzled way:
 You cannot go anywhere amongst peoplel' Pardon me; but I fail to understand" The silence grew oppres- sive~ At last in a sort of cold sdespera- tion the young man said:
 T cannot meet any rones sThere is something that happened. . ]. Nothing can make it right' sAli 1 can do is to lose myself in the widest. grimmest wilderness in the world; and fight my pain.

 But perhaps time may mend tnfngsr' Harold answered out of ths bitterness of his heart:
 Nothing can mend this thing. It Is at the farthest point of evii; and there Is no going or coming back. Nothing can wipe out what is done; what Is past"
 Again silence. and again the strong. gentle voice: s&8s "God can do muchi Oh my dear young friend, you who have been such 8 friend to me and mine. think of this.'
 God Himself can do nothing here. It Is donei And that is the end~ He turned away his head and held his body tense; it was all he could do to keep from groaning. The old mans voice vibrated with earnest conviction as he spoke:
 "Do not say that. Do not think 1t! It Is not worthy of Him-of your' Tt Is true. sir. There is no way out of the past!''
 True. the past cannot be undone. And yet may 1t not be that God in His wisdom has a meaning in even that past? He works often with tools that are not perfect and which are yet adapted to His special ends. God for bid that I should pain you, but oh. sir. just think In His great scheme are many purposes that we cannot see all at once or in the near perspective. Remember that the very pain that sent you by this ship in your seeking the wilderness, was the means of restoring our dear child to my wife and me. You are too much man. I know, not to feel some comfort from that; even if 1t only comes to you in moments of bitter loneliness hereafter. Just think what this day would have been to that poor broken-hearted mother; and to me also. What bitter thoughts would be of our little one dead zfifffnbgkqJfwy icy wavess sher golden hair tossing
