The stamp on each egg was a diamond in the | center of which was a D. “So the mystery is solved.” FLor- imer glanced again at his nurse. “What does the ‘D’ stand for?" he asked, quite excited by this bit of In- terest in the dull monotony of an in- valid's days | “Dorcas Farms,” informed the, nurse. “The young woman, whollven; with her mother out on Long Island, | sends her fresh eggs to us every| morning.” “Do you mean that she actually makes her living raising eggs—chick- | ens?” lorimer's ideas of ways and means for earning a livellhood were rather vague when it came to the gentler sex. In fact, his Interest in the feminine element had been sadly discouraged by the unconditional re- fusal he had recelved from Clarice McClure. True, the divertisement of having his leg run over by a seven- passenger automobile had, In a way, | taken his mind from the ravages of a broken heart. “Exactly that,” chimed in the nurse “Hope Carter and her mother have managed to eke out a living for a, year but it has been a hard struggle.” | Miss Lane's shoulders went up in a half doubtful gesture, “I tell Miss Car- ter she casts too much bread upon the water, but she continues to dis- tribute charity wherever she goes. Now, for Instance, she {8 coming in tomorrow with a basket of eggs col ored for Easter so that the children | in the hosplital can each have one.” “Tomorrow?” Lorimer half arose from his pillows and was promptly lowered by the nurse’'s arm. “I want | to see this Miss Hope Carter” He smiled whimsically, coaxingly at his| nurse. “Do you suppose she could be induced to be charitable to—me? Men are but children—when they are fIl.” he added. Miss Lane doubted in her heart if any girl could resist her big good- Jooking patient. She smiled her thoughts appealing, shadowed eves suggested a thought ot her. “I will see what we can do,” she ! told him, then said suddenly, “Doe tor White thinks a few weeks in the conntry . would do yon a lot of good | perhaps Miss Carter and her moth | op——a “You are awfully anxious to get rid of me,” Lorimer spoke, half lantly.

She tripped happily indoors and soon Lorimer heard a sweet, clear volume of tone coming out through the lattice windows. He smiled with utmost contentment and was scarcely aware that he spoke aloud or that Mrs. Carter’s eyes were watching him with motherly approval “Songs of praise, then let us sing,” he repeated after the voice of Hobe. He turned to Mrs. Carter and the smile that made women adore him was in his eyes. “You are going to acquire a son before another Easter ' comes,” he told her. TRIBUTE TO WOMEN LAWYERS Famous French Criminal Pleader | Tells Why They Are So Success- | ful in Paris, | The Feminine Institute of Law of | Paris, at the tnauguration of a series ot lectures recently, listened to an ad- ! dress by the tamous criminal plead- er, Maitre Henri Robert. | The eminent counsel drew a very | tattering picture of his lady col- leagues. “Women,” he said, “do noth. | ing by halves, and when they take up law they are admirable in their tenacity and ingenuity as well as in their confidence in the final result. Some counsel take up a case merely necause 1t happens to come their way, md when it {s over leave the court with & sense of rellef. But there 1s wnother sort who have falth in jus- t1ice and faith in others to bring about the triumph of their cause. Nothing wearies them, and no failure discour- ages them. They joyfully climb up every step in the ladder of jurisdic. tion, and If they are beaten they ex- | pect other judges to give them what | they have just been denled.” i M. Robert paid a high tribute to the services rendered by lady lawyers in | penal cases, and especially where ctil. ‘ dren are concerned, every little culprit | always having a compassionate lady | coursel to plead for him or her. He concluded by deprecating the faclle jokes made at the expense of fem- ininy pleaders. *“To console those who suffer and those wWho wWeep—often this is the law- yer a only role—l know nothing equal to an intelligent, sweet and indulgent woman.” There are DOW Over thirty lady prac. titioners at the Paris bar, and most of them are engaged on criminal cases, principally in defense of wom- | om and children.
