The emergence Of Col. Roosevelt

picturesque in the world. 1t Is 2,150

I going to do with you? What do you
want to dor
Go with you," replied the old man,
simply 81 like the sunlight, the woods,
the birds. l feel rested, I feel happy,
only forget what was"
All right, make you my partner"
said Sydney.
The old man grew quite blithe and
talkative during the next day of idle
wandering He was like pleased
child Some injury to his brain, it was
apparent, had blotted out the past
Sydney observed that he was an edu-
Gated man, his attire evidenced re-
epectability. There was not a mark on
his clothing, not a scrap of paper
found to give the slightest clue as to
his identity.
Every morning and evening, how
ever the old man took from an inner
pocket an exquisite little medallion. 1t
held the portrait Of beautiful girl.
He would gaze at it raptly for nearly
an hour. And then Sydney got to
sharing his mute alteration. The fair,
| wstful features came to form an ideal
in his mind.
Like nomads those two passed along
the fower-fringed by-ways. Each day
the old man seemed to grow happier
and more contented with the careless,
joyous life.
One evening, while seated in little
| wayside inn, Sydney struck up an ac-
quaintance with physician. He told
the story of the old man. The doctor
became interested He examined the
patient.
There is a depression of the SKULL"
be said. This mans memory can be
restored by surgical operation
! 1t would cost fifty dollars, the doc
tor said, for he would have to call in
a surgeon. Sydney made arrangements
for the housing of his friend in the vii
lage. Then he started out tuning pi-
amos.
1t was glad, proud day for his good,
kind heart when he returned with the
money to pay for the operation.
The doctor had predicted rightly.
The operation concluded, the old man
rose up, new intelligence in his face.
He listened to the story of the doctor.
His eyes were filled with gratitude and
love as he was told of the noble sacri-
flee Of the tramp poet.
Bring me a check book" he said,
land pen"
His apparent within was gratified. He
scratched out Bank of Milton" substi-
tuted State Bank Of Wareham,"
signed name-Henry Morse-and
handed the check to Sydney, filled in
for five thousand dollars.
Then came his story of visiting some
land at distance, of being assaulted
and robbed Sydney must accompany
him home. A sorrowing daughter,
who mourned him as dead, greeted
him at his own palatial home. She
was the original of the cherished por-
trait, Eva Morse.
When all the beautiful story of the
soulful fidelity of Sydney Blair to a
stranger was told, gratitude shone in
those lovely eyes.
And then love, and in the golden
days that passed by as joyful dream
the poet knew no more of loneliness,
and deprivation, and neglect.

W. H. Ellis, a naval architect of

I have come to admire America

country. But, then, you have so many
natural advantages, haven't YOU?
The River Clyde, with us, has been
brought up to its present draught by
means of dredging, and so the Scotch
are very proud of it.
Well, party of American sight.
