Until she died we never knew
The beauty of our faith in God.
We'd seen the summer roses nod
And wither as the tempests blew,
Through many a spring we'd
lived to see
The buds returning to the Tree.
We had not felt the touch of woe,
What cares had come, had light
ly flown,
Our burdens we had borne alone
The need Of God we did not know.
II seemed sufficient through the
days
To think and act in worldly ways
And then she closed her eyes in
sleep.
She left US for a little while.
No more our lives would know

And on. the hurt Of it went deep

Before the anguish Of 1t all.

He drew out his cheque-book
and fountain pen and smiled re-
solutely at Grismer, whose dark
golden eyes rested on him with
IN intentuess that he could scar

"Would you let me give it to

Il can't, Grismer. f. It's splen-

said Grismer, almost absently. ana
for an instant his gazS grew vague
and remote. Then he turned his

on his clasped hands behind his
neck: you won't let me give It

Il can't do that, Grismer."
The other smiled and, still smil-
ing, named a figure. And Cleland
wrote il out, detached the cheque,
started to rise. but Grismer told
him to lay il on the table beside
his glass Of orange Juice.

model

Cleland turned his eyes, heavy
with care, on this man who was
speaking.
Grismer said;
There are three things in the
world which have desired-to
