SHE DEPENDED ON HIM
BY PRUDENCJ! PARSONS.
Mrs. Jones sat stitching—stitching.
Pcor Mrs, Jones, how tired she was,
and how sites she was, and how lonely
she was!
It really:seemed as she sat there,
that cold, winter afternoon, that her
troubles were more than she could
bear, and so she cried. But it was only
a quiet, gentle way. She could not
have been anything else but quiet and
gentle, no matter what happened; but
she was firm—oh, so firm!—that her
eon, Dick, never thought of doing
what children call "coaxing" for any-
thing to which she had once said•"No,"
I say, "never thought." Why, he
never thaught of such a thing—not
only because of her "firmness," mind
you, but quite as much because of the
very gentleness of her refusal.
, When she refused a thing, it was
not as if she did it by right of her
authority as a mother. It seemed as
if she said;
"It hurts me as much as it :ilea you,
my son,, to refuse you, but I must."
So now she sat there, this cold, win-
ter afternoon, thinking over many
things that seemed, as I say, almost
too hard to bear. And besides, her
throat was sore, and somehow she felt
just wretched all over,
"Indeed, she told herself, "I never
felt quite so miserable before. I do
hope I'm not, going to be sick, and be
never late, unless something unusual
happened.
Now that she had time to wait and
to think her throat did hurt her too
badly for anything. But never mind!
She had often had it before, and when
Dick came she'd be all right, anyway.
"There he comes!"
In plunged Dick, full of the cold,
brisk atmosphere.
"i-Iello, little mother! Why so fes-
tive? Why, you look as young and
bright as if you had had some good
news. Come, what is it? What makes
you dress up in your best dress in this
extravagant manner, and provide such
a reckless supper?" and he gave her
the kiss that he never omitted, morn-
ing and evening.
"My dear, this is my forty-fifth
birthday, and I ani giving a festival to
you and myself," and she smoothed
back the hair from her beloved son's-
forehead. 1
"Nonsense! forty-five! Why, you
don't look a day over twenty-five!"
"Ridiculous l" but she blushed and
smiled' at her son's flattery as she
turned to finish putting the supper in
place.
"Oh, mother! mayI go skating this
evening?"

Poor. Dick, overwhelmed with sore
row for his mother's state, felt bitterly
the injustice of ,the doctor's speech,
but was too indignant and too full of
anxiety to make any reply.
Dick's careful watching and tender
care, in aid of the doctor's skill; finally
brought Mrs. Jones back,to convales-
cence..
One day.;ahe told him what a mis
teke he had made in speaking to Dick
as he did. So it was the doctor's turn
to be filled with remorse. ,
"I'm very sorry, madam—very

"'Ho must decide, that."
