nN cold November night night, in niaIe the > coach, on it's way from London to Dover, was carrying among it's pas sengers a MT. Jarvis Lorry, London banker of the well-known firm of Tellson & Co. As the coach stumbled along in the darkness, there arose be- fore him the vision of an emaciated figure with hair prematurely white. All night between him and the spectre the same words repeated themselves again and again.

 q hope you care to live?"
 q cant say.'
 About eighteen years before the story opens Dr. Manette, a prominent yoaug physician of Paris. had sud dealy disappeared. Everything was done to discover some trace of him, but in vain. The loss of her husband caused his wife such anguish that she resolved to bring up her little daughter Tn Ignorance of her fathers fate; and when in two years she died, she left little Lucie under the guardianship of Te11son & Co.,, to whose care Dr. Manette for many years had intrusted his financial affairs.
 Strange tidings concerning the Doc tor had just come from Paris, and Mr. Lorry was on his way to meet his ward, and explain to her the facts of her early life. This was a duty from which the kind-hearted banker shrank, and when he saw the slight golden haired girl who came to meet him, his heart almost failed him. but his task was accomplished at last.
 And now," concluded Mir. Lorry "your father has been found. He is alive, greatly changed, but alive. He has been taken to the house of a for mer servant in Paris, and we are going there. I to identify him, you to re- store him 10 life and love-
 The servant that sheltered Dr. Ma nette was a man by the name of De- large who, with his wife, kept wine shop in the obscure district of St. An toine The banker and Lucie were taken to an attic where a haggard, white-haired man sat on a low bench, making shoes, a wreck of a man, ob- ivious of all around him.
 Again was the Channel crossed, and again the old inquiry whispered in the ear of Jarvis Lorry:
 q hope you care to be recalled to life?"
