The head surgeon began to take off his linens, and the nnrses placed the instruments back in the eterilizing solution.

She knew that Klein lived alone in a barely furnished apart- ment in a squalid district, that all his | spare time was given to the gratuitous relief of the poor. He seemed to wish to dedicate his life to repairing his hideous error. Klein could not be insensible to her interest in him. In rare moments they would talk together, and he un- bent toward her as he did to none else. Before six months had passed the) had come to realize.the depth of their common interest in life. * Each had seen too much of the world to fall easily in love, but when passion is slow in approach it is apt to be stronger. Above all else Nurse Lincoln wanted Doctor Klein to know that she had heard his story and regarded it as a dead element in his life. But she had not the power to tell him so. Klein had the faculty of withdrawing into himself. She could not but realize that the attraction between them was a mutual one. But the unhappy past lay like a barrier between her and love. If only he would give her the { IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE TENTH CUI'T OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. IN AND FOR POLK COUNTY—In Chancery.— B. H.

They were placed in his hands, and, with singular delicacy, the surgeon re- | sumed the operation, “You are tying the main artery,” ex- claimed the head surgeon. “My dear sir, who taught you that? It -has been tried dozens of times in every hospital in America, with a uniform record of failure. It cannot succeed.” Since Drouin had disappeared the operation had hardly ever been per- formed with success. Klein, however, had imparted the knowledge of it to a number of young surgeons in the city, and it had been done three times; but the technic was extraordinarily difficult. It was only a chance that gave Klein the opportunity to perform his operation before the congress. The word was passed, and, like eager stu- dents, the surgeons hurried down to the hospital.

Men packed the benches, men sat on the steps and gathered around the table so thickly that there was barely room for the doctors and nurses to move. Sy Klein proceeded, impassive as a lec- turer, expounding now and then in a low voice as he worked. The marvel- ous technic, where the least slip meant failure, the fingers, poised like steel prongs, so little did they quiver, the inexplicable personality of the opera- tor charged the room with an electric current of tension. It was over! Nobody had realized it, so deftly did Klein work. Now the assistants were putting in the sutures. The patient was placed on a stretcher and wheeled out. Klein took off his gloves and bowed. Suddenly there came a demonstra- tion such as the staid little theater had never known. Everybody knew who Klein was. All cheered them- selves hoarse, standing upon the benches and waving their hats and shouting, But it was Drouin’s name, Klein's they called. Professor Munczewsky, an old man of nearly ninety, rushed up to Klein and kissed him on both cheeks. “Come back to France, Drouin,” he sald. “We cannot spare you. Come back to your work and to your country- men.” Klein cast the slightest glance to- ward Nurse Lincoln, but in that mo- ment she saw that the test had come. She looked at him, and if thoughts can not The Surgeon Resumed the Operation. on the stretcher, rang with applause. “May I ask your name, sir?” in- quired the head surgeon. “Jean Klein,” answered the other, removing his rubber gloves. , “You are connected with some hos- pital here?” “Not at present,” answered Klein. “You have studied under a master, sir. Would you be willing to be a candidate for a post here?” The head surgeon suddenly per- ceived that Doctor Klein's collar was frayed .and his suit shabby. There was a hush of sympathy as Klein nodded and went out. A week later he was installed at the hospital. It was soon realized that one of the mow accomplished surgeons in America had been obtained. His fame spread and doctors and students al- ways crowded his clinics. And by and by a whisper began to be passed around. “Do you know who that is?” the whisper ran. “Well, he is Jacques Drouin. I saw him in Paris.” v Jacques Drouin! Everybody knew it within a month after Doctor Klein's appointment. The story of Drouin was one of the saddest in medical an- Hals. A brilliant surgeon, and, even at thirty, known throughout France, he had acquired the drug habit, and, while irrespongible, committed a crime which ended his cireer. There had een nd prosecution. The scandal was suppressed. So, three years earlier, Drouin had disappeared, ™ He had been overwhelmed with hor- ror and remorse.

Klein knew that she under- stood, and saw only love in her eyes. “Go,” she seemed to say. “Go back to your own country. I cannot follow you, for my work is here, and I should be a drag on you, a strange woman in a strange land, and an ignorant one, outside my fleld of work. Go back to your own and let the memory of my love shield you.” & Klein looked round him with a faint smile. “Gentlemen, I fear you are mista- ken,” he replied. “My name is Klein.” (Copyright, 1913, by W. G. Chapman.) Taking All Advantage. One Saturday afternoon, as he walked leisurely home from work, Kelly overtook O'Callighan carrying a small parcel which obviously con- tained his weekly washing. “l thought,” said Kelly, “it was Mrs, Murphy who did your washing for you; but she lives the other side of the town.” “Mrs. Murphy used to,” answered O'Callighan, “but I left her to go to Widow Malone, who is an obliging button on a man's shirt when she said about her being an obliging Lody,” answered Kelly, “and I'm tak- iug her a button to be washed and tuve & shirt sewnon” be exchanged without the medium of | body and doesn’t object to sewing a . 17 Ky.
