her Her face was not a happy one,
for her memories were freighted with
a sadness that had Swallowed her life
for nearly ten years.
She had welded Rodney Durand,
close friend of her brother, now dead,
and both had been employed in the
prosperous mercantile house of her
father. He, too, had now passed away
and Mabel was alone in the world,
except for her little daughter, Erma,
only ten years old. The little one
came tripping joyously into the room
at that moment.
"Oh, mamma she cried, "what do
you think? Our neighbor in the next
fiat, Mrs. Brayton, wants US both to
be ready in an hour to so with her to
the movies.
Mrs. Brayton had been a cheering
element in the lonely life of Mabel
Durand for over two months.
Mrs Durand had more than once
during their brief acquaintatr eship
conyersed with the neghbor she
seemed to especially like about her
past history. 1t was a tragic one.
Iwo years after her marriage to Rod
ney Durand her husband had been
arrested and sentenced to prison for
embezzlement from her father.
II loved Rodney and always SHALL"
insisted Mabel. There must be some
mistake in the fearful charge they
bava b,.0,1eht aUntncf him
"There is none" replied her father
sternly. "He has disgraced us. He
stole from me boldly"
Still Mabel hoped and waited and
at the end Of two years when Rodney
was released from prison she bore 81
lently the reprOach of never hearing
a word from Linn.
SO Mabel had talked of her broken
life and now it was Christmas time
again and the occasion brought a sad
remembrance Of those days in the hap
py past when she and little l1ma had
known q tender-hearted husband and

Mrs. Brayt0n. chatted casually all the
way to the theater and told her she
had seen the picture play twice and
was greatly impressed by it.
1T is the story Of the life Of
wronged, misiudged man. she said,
"and I know it will interest you"
The screen outlined the course Of
business in a modern counting room.
Then as there entered new figure,
little Erma pressed close to The side
Of her mother and exclaimed:
"Oh, mamma, that actor looks just
like the picture you have Of dear, alb

The story of the embezzle-

band had taken his blame. bearing
the penalty and reproach to save her
brother from disgrace.
At critical moment her brother
had sent a full confession to Rodney,

piece, destroyed it.

toned Mrs. Brayton softly.
"Oh, how we have wronged my poor,
dear Rodney" sobbed Mabel. "Can
YOU forgive him? win he ever forgive
me? Oh, that | could find him."
You SHALL" and when they reached
home, Mrs. Brayton left her friend for
a few moments to reappear with her
brother.
Higher swung the gladstone chime

voices, and beside the little Christmas
tree that had been trimmed for Erma,

joyous knowledge that their paths

of that Christmas eve into broad sun
