I will ask nothing The poor, patilrstie voioe, so labor- ed so husky,'ib`tesnor's eyes shone with tears. T1i1s man had lost his lave, took her 'fox the lost one God had sat§Eried his longing by letting her to hini. as if she were that utter. Could she not utilize the hii,iiuei>aation by leading the dying stranger to the Divine One who coutd make up to him all other loss? Tier soul went up in prayer that it might be so She bowea besidelhe bed the hollow eyes watching her, the weak, em- aciated hand feeling its way over the coverlet ;until it touched hers. She put her warm palm over the clammy one tai, she prayed. He did not listen, only a few words took hold of°his understanding ; he was feasting on the face of his be- loved tears streaming over it as she pleaded for him. Of all that pleading he heard only tour words : "This poor broken life" A mom ent after, as she again stood above him, she heard him uttering. 'Poar broken life, Poor broken life" An infinite pity took possession of her. With her head on his throbbing temples she stooped to whisper. "Jesus can make it whole again. "Yes, perhaps ; but I did not ask for life in the lest place, I did not choose my position They were thrust upon me. My circumstan- ces, my surroundings, my tempera ment were all given me, all meted out to •me by aI cher, and all against Isle. I'm; net complaining, that would ill becon-,' one who has made such poor use .f what little he had,but" the inhered, husky voice taking on sud.Thn energy and strength, "but I vette damned before I was born" Eleanor started as if smitten, and a chin struck to her heart; yet she controlled herself to say : "But now you have a choice, something depending; not on your surrounding or the acciaent of birth, hut on your will -and this choice in its workings, can counter act all' the evil of what seems chance. Yes better than that, she went on eagerly, not only counter• act'butteall apparent evil to ad- vance, enhance the good." He shook late/0204 feebly: 'No, I hCtve no p :sic, , I oannat choose, I've lost the faculty." He spoke. slowly and with difficulty. "A11 that is over for the past. I ought not to blame anybody -I do not - tor what I am I always knew bet- ter than I au; there was no need of my becoming what I have I have sinned much and consciously -I was not compelled to. there was something in' me bigger than all the surroundings, something that continued uraged nie upward, ou- ward, and yet" he half smiled in the midst of his exhaustion and earnstness at the seeming contra- diction of his words, and yet has continually kept me down I am self murdered, dead through and through, and no one to blame but my -self." No written language can express the dreary hopelessness of his tone, as he shut his eyes and drew his breath utterly prostrated by the effect of speech. His mother turned quickly away, and Eleanor's tears fell over his bands, one splashed on his cheek. He opened his eyes, a light not born of sin nor yet of earth upon his face, as his weak fingers crept up and covered the precious drop. '"'If tears had power to wash away sin in propor- tion to their value. Sty soul would be lily-white" he whispered, and there was triumph in his voice. "You must not cry" he added soothingly a moment later "Your heart was ever too tender ; I ata not worthy of its pity. You must not think 1 complain or blame God No, no. 1 had no moral courage with which tomcat life's temptions no real manliness ; but 1. could, not can take what comes and get along somehow" That was wor se still.

It was impossible. He was•too weak, he almost swooned presently. Not that she talked too muoh. nay, she was very wise, and gentle and careful but be was already touch - tog the hither shore of eternity ; already had lost the grasp on life necessary to fully understand her language, follow her thought, He bad been wandering for days amici the mist of the unknown. Only the voice of love had arrested his steps, drawn him back to earth for a while. He comprehended love, human love -but hardly its mes- sage. Love Divine, she bathed his face, held a cordial to his lips, and after a while he rallied. .'Sing" he whispered then "sing so some- thing he likes -Keith" And wond- ering afresh at the familiar name, she sang a hymn very dear to her lover, "Thou. Thinkest Lord, of me" she rendered the last stanza very slowly and distinctly Let shadows come, let shadows go, Let life be bright or dark with woe I am content, for this I know, Thou thinkest, Lord, of me "Strange" he muttered, as she closed, strange ! Keith never has shadows. . "0 yes, he has" she answered, forgetting for the time that this stranger could not he re- ferring to her affianced. All men have shadows.; it is sweet to know when they hang darkest that they are powerless to change true love, or hinder in its purpose Love Divine " She repeated the vet ars softly, and then arose to go. "Pro mise me to keep these words in your heart until you see me again" she said. "Thou thinkest Lord of me" "I will try" And the me is yourself, remember. (To be continued) Ethel M.
