He won- dered at himself that he had ever been 'in doubt. He had been for an hour in another world where the atmosphere was pure and light clear. Never till that night had he realized the full value of that' of patient selfsacri- fice, so undo cious of its heroism. He underetood then, as never before, the mysterious influence of that gentle, sweet-faced lady over every one who came to` know her, from the simple,., uncultured girls of the Indian Lands to the Young men about town of Har- ry's type. Hers was the power of one who sees with open eyes the unseen, and wile loves to the forgetting of self those for whom the Infinite love poured Itself out in death. ' "Going home, Harry?" inquired Ranald. - ‘, "Yes, right h,onie; don't Want to go anywher,e else to -night. I say, old chap, you're a better and cleaner man than I am, but it ain't yeer fault.

He saw with perfect clearness Mr. Ste Clair% meaning, and 0. sense of keen humiliation pos- sessed him as he realized what it was that he was expected to do. But it took some time for the full- signifi- cance of the situation to dawn upon him. None knew better than he how important it was to the firm that this sale should be effected. The truth was if the mon.ey market should be- ' come at all close the filen would un- doubtedly find 'themselves in serious difficulty. Ruin to the company meant not only the blasting of his own' prespects, but misery to her whom he loved better than life; and after all, what he was asked to do was nothing more than might be done any day in the world of busimise.' Every buyer is supposed to know the value of the thing he buys and certainly Col. Thorp should not comfmit his company 0 deal involving such .a large sum of nloney without thoroughly informing himself in regard to 'the `value of the 1 limits in question, and When he, , as '1 an employee of the Itaitd and St. -I Clair Lumber Co., gave in his re- port, surely WS responsibility ceased. He was not asked to presant any in- correct report; he could easily' make it convenient to be absent until the deal was closed. Furthermore, the chances were that the Brieish-Ameri- can Coal and Lumber Company would still have good value for their money, for the west half of the limits were exceptionally good; and besides, what right had he to besmirch the honor pf his employer, and to set his judgment .above that of a man of -much greater experience? Ranald underetood also Mr, St. Clair's reference to the chan- ges in the firm, and it gave Mani no small saeisfaetion to think that in four years he had risen from the position of lumber checker to that of manager with an offer of a partnership; nor could he mistake the suggestion in Mr. St. Clair's closing words. Every interest he had in life would be abject self-abasement, and then ven- and womemeand of the old oeople, tured to . I couldn't stand them some, of whom were :palsied away. &kicks nohow!"

Harry had heard a good deal about it before; but to Kate and her mother the story was mostly new, and they . 115 n an eager interest as Mrs. Murray and', Ranald !readied those great days. With eyes shining, and in tones of humble grateful won- der they reminded each ether of the various incidents, the terrors, the struggles, the joyful surprises, the ft:mysterious powers- With which they were so familiar during those eigh- teen months. Then Mrs. Murray told of the permanent results; how over three counties; the influence of the movement Was Still felt, and how whole congregationeliad built up un- der its wonderful power. - "And did you hear," she said to Ranald. 'that Donald Stewart was ordained last May?" replied Ronald; "that makes seven, doesn't it?", - "Seven what?" said Kate. "Seven men preaching the Gospel today out of our own congregation, re- lined Mrs, Murray. "But auntie, pried Harry, "I hav.e always thought that all that must have been *wispily herd. wade" "It was," said Ranald, emphatically; and the went on to sketch Mrs- Mur-, rases round of duties in her various classes and meetings connected with the congregation. 'Besides what she has to do in the manse!" exclaimed Harry; "but it's a mere trifle, of couise; to look after her treop of boys," "How can - you do it?" said Kate, gazing at her in admiring wonder. "It isn't -so terrible as Harry thinks. That's my work, -you see," -said Mrs. Murray; ‘"what, else would I do? And when it goes well it is worth while." • "But, auntie; dont you feel sorrae- times like getting away and having a little fun? Own up, new." ' "Fun?" laughed Mrs: Murray. "Well, not fun exactly, but a good timei,with things you 'enjoy so much, music, literature, and that sort of thing. Do you remember., Kate, the first time you met auntie,when we took her to 'Hamlet?" . Kate nodded. - "She wasn't quite sure about it, but I declare tile P dip that I will never forget the wonder and delight in her face. I tell you I wept that night, but not at the play. And how she criticised the actors; even Booth him- self didn't escape," continued Harry; "and so I say it is a beastly shame ithat you should spend your whole life in the backwbods there and have so little of the other sort of thing. Why i you are made for it!" "Harry," answered Mrs. Murray in sueprise, "that was My work, given me to do. Could -II refuse it? And besides after all, fun, as you say, pass- es; music stops; books get doxie with; but those other -things, the things that Ranald and I have seen, will go on long after my poor body is laid way." "But still you must get tired," per- sisted Harry. "Yess, I get tired," she replied, quietly. At the little touch of weari- ness in the voicefi Kate, who was look- ing at the beautiful face, SO spiritual, and getting, oh, so frail, felt a sudden rush of tears in her eyes. But there 1 was no self pity in that heroic soul. 'Yes, I get tired," she repeated, "but in such an eminent degree, of seeing a question in all its ramifications, he has the ability ot help others to a similar view. Se? when M.
