be infinitely better than this weary
waiting.
He stood at the gate talking longer
than he had sat in the piazza, but
at last he extended his hand in leav-
taking.

to take the case, I'm glad indeed that

that Lewis Brown s wife wants l

and old DR.. John Ray smiled quiz
zlcally while his keen eyes read the
girls face. Sometimes, however, it
is not necessary to go far to find the
field III which ones services are most
needed, but always it is the woman
who serves whose memory is immor-
tai, u he concluded as he stepped
nimbly into his buggy and shook the
lines over the raw-boned horse. Me-
llssa watched him drive down the
white dusty road through a simmer
ing haze Of August sunshine with
feeling Of intense relief at the pros
pect so unexpectedly opened ahead of
her. And so it came to pass that two
days later that Melissa Reed was on
her way to "Roselawn' to see that
Mrs. Lewis Brown, fashionable semi
invalid, received the attention befit-

while at the hospital, where her ply
stefan though best to send her, less
for the trlf1ng treatment advised than
that he might have the chance to
draw a much-needed long breath,
which he found impossible to take
while she was near enough to keep
him busy ministering to her hypo-
chondriac ills. Twelve miles from her
home Melissa alighted from the train
at a station so like Hickory Hill that
it was undoubtedly cut by the same
pattern. She glanced about her ex-
pectantly.
"Why, hello, M 'lis!" and a short,
stout young man, red-headed and
ruddy-faced, Of gnarled nominees but
genial manners, came up and thrust
a stubby, freckled hand out with such
honest cordiality that she must per-
force recognize an old schoolmate and

in sleep, and Melissa in her own room
was sitting on the floor by her open
trunk putting her belongings in readi-
ness against the time of her depart
ure.
81 haven't seen Alonzo's picture
for an age she sighed sentimentalIy,
as from box containing few pho
tographs she took that Of strikingly
handsome and distinguished looking
young man and gazed at it pensively.
The romance of her life was con-
nected with this picture. Consider
ing everything some people would not,
perhaps, have called it by that name,
but some people are too prosy and
exacting to see romance in anything.
Melissa did not, by any means belong
to that class. She was Of a poetic
nature, capable of being lifted out of
reality into a realm of fancy which
is gift of the gods. AS a child, she
was prone to leave the humdrum and
where everything was more to her
taste and wishes, and no magician s
lamp, no fairy wand, ever opened
roster vistas to eyes tired of the neu-
trail tints Of everyday, commonplace
things Here in her castles in Spain
she found her greatest pleasure and
lived an entirely different life from
that in which fate had seen fit to
place her. 1t was due to this rather
remarkable gift that Melissa came to
know Alonzo, SO superior in every
way to all the men that she had ever
met, so devoted, sympathetic and alto
gether desirable as a lover that grad
ually the fairy world was absorbed in
him and, the old Adage to the con-
trary, the course of their true love
had run with marvellous smOOthness.
Many had been the teasing demands
from nurse intimates to tell the story

must wait for the fulfllment of this
cherished ambition. The pictured face
ever wore a look of understanding
and in some intangible way impaired
comfort, such as she might have felt
after communing with a congenial
spirit. It was small wonder that the
original, footsteps in the hallway
stopped at her door and there was a
timid rap. Thrusting the picture I'M

comparison would follow and it was
plain to her that the relation cotfld

her power to raise her people to a
higher plane and she longed to be
