 Well. two can play this game,' he muttered "VeT see who winsI"
 He turned to his work with grim resolution.
 For two weeks the battle between pride and love ragged in silence Each day he rose with the hope of some sign from Nan, and each day hope died in a more desperate and sullen despair At last he began to question the wisdom of his course Should he not fight his battle at closer range? What if he were in reality engaged in al mortal combat with Bivens' millions for Mans soul and bodyl The idea was too hideons to be thinkable-
 And yet the more he thought of the scene Of their parting, the more sick enfng became the conviction that her anger at his use of an ugly word was marely a subterfuge to break their en-

in Harrison, Arkansas, aged IA years,
two months and IS days. She pro-
fessed faith in Christ at the age of

Hazel was always a lovabie and
obedient child, devoted to her father
and mother. She was apt in music
and took great delight in the study
and practice of same. She enjoyed
reading the Bible and hearing it read,
and took much pleasure in attending
church and Sunday school. She

mains were taken to the Klepper

Another hand is beckoning us,
Another call is given,
And glows once more with angel feet
The path that leads to Heaven
The Golden Gates are opened wide,
A gentle voice says Come
And angels from the other side
Have welcomed our loved one home.
