It drap- ed her slight figure completely. Leav- ing her sodden garments where they | had fallen, for she was not equal to anything else, she wrapped herself in the folds of the big gown and man- aged to get into bed. For all its rude appearance it was a very comfortable sleeping place; there were springs and & good mattress. The unbleached sheets were clean, although they had been rough dried; there was a dell- clous sense of comfort and rest in her position. She had scarcely com- posed herself when he knocked loud upon her door, ‘May I conte in?” he asked. ! When she bade him enter she saw be had in his hand a saucepan full of He Walked Nervously Up and Down. some steaming broth. She wondered how he had made it in such a hurry, but after he poured it into a granite- ware cup and offered it to her, she took it without question. It was thick, warming and nourishing. He stood by her and insisted that she take more and more. Finally she rebelled. “Well, perhaps that will do for to- night,” he sald; now let's have a look at your foot.” She observed that he had laild on the table a long roll of white cloth; she could not know that he had torn up one of his sheets to make ban- dages, but so it was. He took the lit- tle foot tenderly in his hands. “l am going to hurt you,” he sald. “I am going to find out if there is anything more than a bruise, any bones broken.” There was no denying tbat he did pain her exquisitely. “I can't help it” he said as she eried aloud, “I have got to see what's the matter. I am almost through now.” “Go on, I can bear it,” she said faintly. “I feel so much better, any- way, now that I am dry and warm.” “So far as I can determine,” gald | the man at last, “it is only a bad, ugly bruise: the skin {8 torn, it has been battered, but it is neither sprained nor broken, and I don't think it is go- | | ing to be very seriou Now I am go- 1 ing to bathe it in the hottest water you can hear, and then I will bandage | {t and let you go to sleep.” e went out an: came back with & kettle of | er, with which ha n the poor, torn, his long roll of bandage and wound it dexterously around her foot, not drawing it too close to prevent circu- lation, but just tigzht enough for sup- port, then as he finished she drew it back beneath the cover. “Now,” said he, “there is nothing more I can do for you tonight, Is there?” “Nothing.” “I want you to go to sleep now, you will be perfectly safe here. I am go- ing down the canon to search——" “No,” sald the girl apprehensively. ~1 dare no. oe left alcne bere; be- eldes T know how dangerous it would be for you to try to descend the canon in this rain: you have ricsked enouga tor me, you must wait until the morn- ing; I shall fecl better then.” ' “But think of the anxiety of your| friends.” | “I can't help it,” was the nervous | reply. “I raid to be left alome | here at { Her voice trembled; he was fearful ghe would have a nervous breakdown. | “Very well,” he said soothingly, ” will not leave you till the morning.” “Where will you stay?” “I'll make a shakedown for myself shall 'be right wiffiin call at 85y tTme.” It had grown dark outside by this time and the two in the log hut could i barely see each other, ~ “I think I stall light the fire,” con- tinued the man, “it will be sort of | company for you and it gets cold up ! bere nights at this season. I shouldn't | wonder if this rain turned into snow. Besiges, it will dry your clothes for you Then he went over to the fireplace, struck a match, touched it to the kindling under the huge logs already prepared, and in a moment a cheerful blaze was roaring up through the chimney. Then he picked up from the floor where she had cast them in a heap her bedraggled garments. He straightened them out as best he could, hung them over the backs of chairs and the table, which he drew as near to the fire as was safe. Hav- ing completed this unwonted task he turned to the woman who had watch- ed him curiously ana nervously the while, “Is there anything more that I can do for you?" “Nothinz. You have been as kind and as gentle as you were strong and brave.” He threw his hand out with a depre- cating gesture, “Are you quite comfortable?” “Yes.” “And your foot?" “Seems very much better” “Good night, then. I will call you in the morning.” “Good night,” said the girl grate- fully, “and God bless you for & true and noble man.” e " (To Be Continued.) ATTRACTIVE FALL GOWN. PAGE J. P.
