The Light in the

Doris Lane could gather little from

rose. From the moment of the explo-
sion In the chemical laboratory in
which she had been employed, during
the long days of suffering in the hos
pital, she did not dare to ask If she
would be left with badly Scared
face. The question seemed, for the
time being, vain and foolish in her sit
uation, but now that life was assured,
she began to wonder If for all her
days she was to meet the plying, ques-
tioning look that the UNNAMED give
the manned.
Doctor, how do I look?" she asked,
smiling as bravely as she could.
The gray-headed surgeon smiled In
answer, and said in his grave, kind
way: swell, little girl, think you
have pair of the finest brown eyes
I have ever seen, and your hair
"But I didn't mean that" she said
hurriedly.
II know, but your question put me
In the old-enough-to-ask class; so I
wanted to tell you" He looked at her
gently. "There is just one bad scar.
the others will fade, am sure. You
might bring Miss Lane a mirror" he
said to the waiting nurse.
She was weak with suffering, and
her mind was tortured with questions
of the future, for her training had
been limited and the simple matter
of a livelihood was no small item now.
So when she saw in the truthful glass
the livid scar that raced its ugly line
across her forehead, and the blotches
below where the flying acid had
touched, she moaned in anguish.
Hello By-way!"
The pleasant voice cut through her
darkness, and she opened her tear
filled eyes to see standing above her
the attending physician, known to her
MS doctor Walter" During the month
that her eyes had been bandaged, he
had been to her merely pleasant
voice and gentle fingers. Now she saw

he was tall, tanned as If from much
time spent out of doors, gray-eyed and
dark-haired. His mild fun in calling
her "By-way" instead of Lane" had
pleased her in her childish weakness
now, however, she turned to the pill
low.
His voice was gentle, for he seemed
to understand. Look here, you must
not feel that way"

what?" he urged in the same gentle
fashion.
She shook her head and waved him
aside. The sight of his strong, pleas
ant manhood, the sound of his voice,
for some reason or other, made her
misery all the more bitter-just why
she did not know.
She did not guess the purpose in the
nurses friendly questioning that eve
ming, but because there was no one in
the world to whom she could confide
some of her anxiety, she told the nurse
what she refused to tell Doctor Wal
ter. And the nurse did not tell her
of that purpose, nor offer any sugges-
ton as to how the mutilated girl might
solve the problem she was facing.
The next morning. Doctor Walter
stopped again. Miss Lane. I have
come to make you formal offer of a
position as my secretary; I want you
to look after my office; are you will

many questionsl She turned away.

some one, and you have had expert

The quiet reproof in his voice was
enough. "Forgive me, hardly know
what I am saying. Yes. If l can serve
you, want to-"
"All right" he said, cheerfully
"Well consider the matter settled"
