srownlna's disappointment.

Robert Browning's great hopes for
his son were not fulfilled. One OF the
poets disappointments was the rejec-
ton OF a statue by Pen" sent to the
academy in the sos.
Though Pen Browning's statue was
rejected, two or three pictures paint
ed In Belgium, clever In a hard, real
istic technique. but very far from
beautiful, we're hung at the academy.
Browning was. sensitively anxious
about the reputation Of these works.
On one occasion. when he was show
ing his sons pictures on studio Sun
day, he said to friend who mentally
noted the saying with Its rather
strained modesty: "You see. people
expect so much from him because he
had a clever mother" One of the pic

Agatha's first thought on awakening

of Sallie Kingsbury coaxing her to
bed and tucking her In, in the purple
light of the early morning. She re
membered the attention with pleasure
and gratitude. as, another blessing
added to the greater one OF James
Hambleton's turn toward recovery.
Sallie's act was mute testimony that
Agatha was, In truth, heir to Hercu-
les Thayer's estate. spiritual and mate

She summoned Lizzie, and while she
was dressing, laid out directions for
the day. During her short stay In

nevertheless she had remained oblivi-
Gus OF any impending crisis during the
night. Her pompadour was marcelled
as accurately as If she were expect

No rustlings of the wings OF the
Angel OF Death had disturbed her
sleep. In fact. Lizzie would have

cation had banished such supersti-
tions. She noticed. however, that
Aeatha's candles had burned to their
sockets. and inquired II Miss Red
