garb, Lswaudowski yesterday pass. d
through the prison doors out into the
world aud freedom.
A fair-haired girl, with flushed
cheeks aud large wistful gray eyes,
awaited him in the big marble en-
trance hall.
Lewandowsi ran toward her with q
cry Of happiness. Passioaately he
embraced her and their lips met in 4
long kiss
IL was the girl who had brought the
pardon. She bad brought alsn pro-
mise to marry the man in whose pale
face and dark, deep-set eyes shope
again the enthusiasm which only youth
and hope can give.
Lewandowski was not quite Is years

orphan and had not friend in the

to visit him as often Is the prison
rules allowed. The mother was told
Of Lewandowski.
On the next visit she brought with
her a young woman, whose sad, sweet
face seemed like ray Of pdrest sun
