was my last day at tho business house
where I filled the position Of typist,
and the worst on it ~ that I have less
than 4 sovereign in my purse"
| Never mind, Miss Mary" said
/ good .natured Mrs. Desmond: There's
Isome Of my savings that you can have
| to go on with. You know I have a
good bit put by. But just to thinl,
that you're like this and that woman
that doesn't deserve 1t having YOUR
stapfather'a fine place and all his
money they say. Pm told he left her
everything" = 80. +
Thanks, dear Mrs. Desmond,
a Thousand thanks for your generous
offer: After all, things might be worse.
I've health and strength, and who
knows what God may have in store
for me?'' said Mary, cheerily.
"T'1n certain He has something good
for you,. Miss Mary, if not in this
world at any. rate in the next, which
is what matters most, /" said Mrs Des.

1T is, indeed. your very own statue,
Miss Mary; and do you know / believe
I. your stepfather began to think about
becoming a Catholic when his end was
near, for he asked me to bring that
statue to his room, and nothing would
please him but that I should stand
i it by. his bedside .....s:..,. ,..
'tAnd what did his wife say?"
/ ooh, she looked at 1t with sneeI
and ordered it to be removed. L be
i lieve she thought. it was. my idea tc
i put it in the masters room, but when
i he said it was to. stay, she just said:
i oh, sick mans fancies,' and took
| no further notice OF 1t. !. But just {
little. while before heFIdied he called
] me and said. When am dead, Mrs
Desmond, take her statute TO Mary
Derwent and tell her but hi
i didnsR finish what he wanted to. say
! for at that very nsoment his wife came
into the room, and seeing me bendins
over him, came up in q wild hurry anC
said: 49,, If, there's anything you want
Il Johns ask me, and then turning tt
line, she said: You may go now, Des
:. mondY IL shall remain with my hus
band for the present tried sew
/ eraI times to. get near him after that
but didn't succeed. She was thai
watehful that didn't find a. chance
Eof speaking to him, but his eyes fol
/ lowed me about the room as if ht
wanted to tell me something" %i
II wonder what he wanted to say,
said Mary; perhaps that he was sor
ry for turning me ont of the house
/ in ithayway he did, but /. didn't blame
him for it. I knew that it was all his
, wife's doing. She didn't want him t.
provide for me-, expect she. is very
