The council Of national defense
believes that the American Red

herewith is detrimental TO the
public welfare in the conduct OF

1t should not be inferred from
this that the American Red Gross

this aid, which has proven so val

He dropped h"- !f'"-1- and turned
away. Elinor watched him wistfully.
The one thing he wanted she could not
give. There could be no compromise
between them. It must be all or moth
ing, and she had given her all to some
one else.

back at her with haggard eyes. 1t was
as If he were impressing on his men,
DRY every light and shadow Of her
face; every line Of her straight young
figure. Then he went out into that
darkest hour Of the night that pre-
cedes the dawn.
For the first time since his injury
Wards mind was quite clear. He had
not been able to sleep, and the nurse
had been reading to him. Strange read
ing, too, for the assistant rector Of
Saint Jude's. The books old Hilary
had kept on his bedside still lay there.
Even the nurse, accustomed to
many books for many men, was gently
outraged.
Ward lay in his bed, his eyes half
closed, listening intently. At last the
nurse put down the book.
"Why, it's frfghtful, it's outrageous,
it's blasphemous! Do you really think
l should read you any more Of them?"
Ward smiled feebly.
If you are afraid Of the effect on
you"
"Not at ALL" said the nurse almost
sharply, and picked up the book again.
Ward lay back on his pillows and
listened to the age-old arguments.
So 1t was on such literature as this
that Elinor had been reared! How
fair a plant to have grown thus in the
dark! And as the nurse droned on.
Ward came to realize how natural and
how inevitable had been her develop
ment. Reared in such soil, what might
he himself not have become; ana
more than that, would he have been

Toward dawn the nurse slept in her
chair. Her cap had fallen a little

rows between her eyes. Plain she was,
but kindly and full Of gentleness. Ward.
lying awake, watched her. She was no
longer very young. He! thought Of the
children who should have chung to her
broad, nat bosom and felt the touch Of
her tender hand.
Then, because, curlously enough,
everything Of gentleness and tender
ness reminded him Of Elinor, his
thoughts swung round to her. He
closed his eyes, and dreamed the
dream that had been with him, sub
consciously, all the night. To take her
In his arms, and by teaching her love,
teach her infinite love; by showing
mercy and forgiveness and great ten
derness, to lead her by these. His at-
tribute, to the Christ-this was his
dream.
And because It brought hope and
healing and great peace, after time
he slept. Elinor, standing alone in the
house outside his door. took courage
from his even breathing and ventured

dared not touch him. She knelt very
quietly BY the bed, and kissed the cor.
