her chair. Effie was always happy.
One evening he asked her q most
extraordinary question, shot out Of
him without intending it, dis
charged out OF his questioning
thoughts as by a hidden spring
suddenly touched by cropping I'm

"Effie, do you love God?"
Her surprise seemed to him to be
more at the thing he had asked
than at its amazing unexpectedness
and amazing irrevelancy. Why,

The second Christmas Of the war
came. The evening before the last
day of the Old Year was to have
given Sabre a rare pleasure TO
which he had been immensely look
ing forward. He was to have
spent it with Mr.. Fargus. The old
chess and acrostic evenings hardly
ever happened now. 1t was to have
been a real long evening; but it
proved not very long.

Sabre had always thought Bright
Effie would be wonderful with old
Mrs. Perch. He wrote long letters
to Young Perch, telling him how
much more than wonderful Bright
Effie was. Effie mothered Mrs.
Perch and managed her and hu-
mored her in a way that not even
Young Perch himself could have
bettered.
Marvellous EffieI Sabre used 10
think; and of course it was because
her astounding fund of humor was
based upon her ell-embracing
capacity for love. Sabre liked i'm
mensely the whispered talks

He unfolded it. All!
