We only spoke at intervals, for We had attained that true companionship that does not require constant talking. I saw a dreamy, far-nwaylook come into the young wife's eyes.. She was building bright castles in the future, when her prospects of maternity would be realized in the supreme joy of mother love, and her home be com- plete. _ When from a city steeple eleven was tolled out, my neighbor grew restless. When with solemn, meas- ured stroke midnight was 'snnounced, I heard her side door open and her quick step; 911 the gravel. T met her at the door. I heard her kiss him affectionately at the door as he departed, and thought it must be a stress of busi- ness, indeed, that. would take a man from such a wife; but surely that kiss would be protect-ion against; every evil spell. . A ..I did not Ofi’er to stay later than tell, for by so doing I might betray 'scfinewhat of the anxiety and boding ofill that oppressed me. I do not often have such feelings, but am alwi yrs in terror when I do, for trouble has soon followed. My sitting room was oppo- site her parlor, Where I knew she would watch and wait. After light- ing the gas I did not draw the cur- tains, but sat down with my knitting where she could see me, and so practi- cally watched and waited ’with her. “ Let us hope for the best my dear.

I was soon at her side, and with her hand (which trembled and fluttered like a frightened bird) in mine, we sat silently through another long haul: r Like a knell, one sounded from the steeple.
