from the bedroom. 81 want you,
Uncle John.
John Bently went into the room
where little Ruth waited for him, and
dropped down upon his knees by the
side of the bed, and took the wasted
form in his arms, and kissed the fra
gile face over and over, though he
could not see it for tears.
"Ive wanted you SO much" little
Ruth whispered. 1--WE love each
other, don't we, Uncle John?"

cried Mrs. Bently. This is the lit
tie Ruth Uncle Johns told me so
much about, is it? I'm little Mary's
mother, dear" and then she bent to
kiss the child that had made her
husband think so much of the little
girl who had died long ago.
81 do believe she's better-ever so
much better!" declared Grandma
Harris. "She looks so bright, and
natural, and her voice doesn't seem
to sound so far-off, some way"
perhaps it's the excitement of
seeing Uncle john" said Mr.. Harris.

Little Ruth was better, the doctor
said, when he made his visit. q

happens"
Such a Thanksgiving Day as that
was! Mrs. Harris went about won

1t be possible that John Bently and
his wife were really there, and the
old trouble w ended for all time ?
1t seemed good to be true, and
yet-it W. L lie II she could believe
the evidence Of her eyes and ears.
Why, the two men were sitting to-
gether by the bed of little Ruth, not
saying very much to each other, but
looking what neither had words at
command to express, and making her
think-such a ridiculous idea!-of
the times she and her husband had
made up" after a quarrel, when,
with hearts softened with love and
penitence, they really felt as IL they
loved each other better than ever be-
fore.

One Formula Can Be Made to Fit Almost

The way to tell peoples fortunes is to have

in the Metropolitan:
You not SO fortunate you seem. You
have great deal Of sense, but more sense than
knowledge. YOU Civ" admirable advice to
other people. Your Judgment is excellent as re-
CARDS others, but bad as regards yourself. You
never value your own good advice. You are
fond of your friends. You prefer talk to action
You suffer from fndecision. You are fond Of the
stage You are susceptible to female beauty
You are witty, amiab1e and well educated but
you like coarse jokes. You are superstitious and
believe in ghosts. You can make people laugh
You often pretend to be more foolish than you
are. At other times you will surprise people by
your power of apt repartee. Your bane will be
your inclination to fat which will hamper you in
lighting You are unsuccessful as soldier but
unrivaled as companion and philosopher You
will mix in high society, have friends at court
You Will come off badly in personal encounter
and your final enemy will be king"
