Had she not battled against her own feelings and concientiously done what she thought to be right. Meanwhile Mrs. Geraldine Gangevoort. having spent her anuer and indignation, rang the bell and ordered her coupe. She had to drive alone. Sibyl and Gladys, her delicate daughters, had gone to a recep: tion. Frank, her son, a young physician, was never able to go with her, “office hours” pre- venting.

How long the years of study and dis- appointment and hard work seemed! and how weil she remembered all the chilling rebuffs she had met from the day her aunt had spoken thi cruel words, and she had taken refuge with her old friend, Mrs. Russell. whose influence and interest had at last secured her a position in the training school for nurses! Ah, it was no easy task she had taken upon herelf; but how tranquil and assured now her life had become since she had been her own mistress, and filled the hours with useful work! To be sure, her aunt had renounced and denounced her and her cousins never even spoke to her. Frank only was her friend, Just then with a moan her patient awoke and fixed his eyes upon her, What a shock thrilled her as he looked and looked again! How well she knew those eyes! Though years and his deep slumber had nised him she now was conscious that she was in the presence of the man who had once offered her his love. Why had Frank sent for her? What was the mean- ing of this meeting? Did he know her? Should she flee? All these questions rushed for an an- swer, but long habits of self-restraint calmed her, and with gentle touch she assayed some little movement for hiscomfort hoping he would not recognize her. But she was mistaken; a. hot hand was laid on hers, and a familiar voice id: You have come.

It is the 14th day of February, and Dr. Ganse- yoort is mounting the stairs of a New York boarding house.

A bit of plain white and black paper—a scrap from a check-book, with ‘Pay to Teresa Stan- ton’s order” on it, and $50,000 in the corner. The smiling face became grave, the soft, brown eyes filled and bent a silent, questioning gaze upon Frank. “It's none of my doing, Teresa, as you see. Leroy’s an altered man. He has always loved you, and now seeks to show his gratitude for all your kind care.” a But, Frank, I cannot accept this—unless— uniess——' * You also accept the giver,” sald Frank, smiling, as he finished the sentence for her. “That is Just what he wants, Teresa.
