He will surely Stephen Leach was one of the early victims to this craze. His father, havâ€" ing risen by the force of his own will and the capal’ulilics of his own mind from the people to the church, held, as such men do, that he had only to give his son a good education to insure his career in life. So everythingâ€"even to the old pzu‘son’s sense of right and wrongâ€"was sacrificed to the education of Stephen Tear-h at public school and university Here he met and selected for his friends youths whose futures were insureddllnd who were only pass- ing through the formula, of an educa- tion so that no one could say they were unfit for the snug government appoint- ment, living or inheritance, of amore substantial sort that might be, wait- ing for them. Stephen acquired their ways of life without possessing their advantages, and the consequent-e, was something very nearly approaching to rat for the little country rector. Not hav ng been a, university man him- self, the rector did not. know that at Oxford or Cambridge, as in the army, one may live according to one’s tastes.

He was like an actor callâ€" ; ed suddenly upon the stage, having no lknowledge of his part. The return of i this prodigal was not a, dramatic suc- ‘ case. No one seemed desirous of learnâ€" ‘ing whether he had lived upon husks ‘or otherwise, and with Whom he had ‘eaten. The quiet dignity of the girl, 1 who had remained behind to do all the ‘ burden, seemed in some subtle manner jto deprive him of any romance that 1 might have attached itself to him. She 1ignored his halfâ€"proffered hand, and, j turning into the little passage, led the lway upstairs.

His attitude toward Joyce was distinctly apologetic. When he followed the girl ncross the threshold of their mother‘s headroom the old lady was sitting up in bed, ‘ holding out trembling arms toward the idourl Here- Stephen Leach seemed to ‘know better what; to do.

This is my first hornwmy little 1 Steve." and the two women heard the. 1ath of the gate. Then J0ycc,turning’,saw 1hat the mother had fainfed. But it was only momeniary. By the time she reached the bed her mother had recovered conâ€" sciousness. “G0,” said the old, lady, breathlessly; "g9 and lgt him in yourself?” Downstairs on the doorstep the girl found atall man of 3001‘ thermbouts with abrowner face than English suns could amount for. He looked down into hu‘ eager eyes with a strange, quesâ€" tioning wonder. “Au; It'oo late?” he asked, in a voice which almost seemed to indicate a. hope that it might be so. “N0, Stephen,”ishe answered. “But mother cannot live much longer, You are just in tune." The young man had sunk upon his knees at the bedside,m‘0bahly herjapse The young man khelt upright and submitted gravely to this maternal invgptorxfy. “Yes,” she said.

After all he arrived at the right, moment in the afternoon, when the house was ready. It sometimes do»; happen so in real life, and not only in hooks. There is a grant deal that; might: be altered in this world, but sometimes, by a. mere chance, things Fame about rightly. And, yet there was something wrong, something: suhtle, whivh the (lying woman‘s duller senses failed to detect Her son, her Stephâ€" en: was quiet and had not muoh to say for himself. He apparently had the hahit of taking things as they came. There was no enthusiasm, hut rather a restraint. in his manner, more esâ€" pecially toward Joyce, The girl no- ticed it, but even her small experivnce of human-kind had taught her that large, fairâ€"skinned men are Often thus. They go through life plat-idly, leaving unsuid and undone many things which some think they ought to say and do. After the first, excitement of the return was over it became glaringly apparent that Stephen had arrived just: in time. His mother fell into uhapâ€" py sleep hetore sunset, and when the active young dot-tor came a little latâ€" er in the evening he shook his head. it: was the most ronvonient position. He did not second his mother’s proâ€" posal with much enthuqiusm. Altoâ€" gether he did not seem to have disâ€" covered much sympathy with his sis- ter whom he had left in her cradlle. Joyce mime forward and leaned over the bed to kiss her brother while the old lady’s hands joined theirs, Just as her fresh young»: lips came Within reach he turned his face aside, so that the kiss fell on barren ground. on his tanned cheek. “Yes.” answered the prodigalspeuk- ing for the first time. “That is a sword out, I got (that in the last war. I am a colonel in the Chilian army, or was, before I resigned.” “Joyce,” rontinued the old lady fev- erishly, “I. am not afraid to die now, for Stephen is here. Your brother will take care of you, dear, when I am gone." It was strange. that Stephen had not spoken yet, and it was perhaps just as well, because there are. occasions in life when men (10’ wime to keep silent. The old lady’s sightless eyes were fixed on his fame as if listening for the (who of another voice in his deep, quiet; tones. ‘ "He is strong,’ the proud mother went on, "1 can feel it. His hands are large and steady and quiet and his arEs are big and very hard." “Your voice is deeper than your fa- ther’s ever was,” She. said, and all the while her trembling fingers moved lovâ€" ingly over his face, touching the deep out from cheek bone to jaw v» ith soft; inquiry. "This must have been very near your eye, Stephen. Promise mP, dear. no more Soldering.” "l promise that,” he replied, vsith- out raising~ lii' eyes. taken Iver hand in his with that silent sympathy which was so natural and so eloquent. He said nothing, this big, sunâ€"stained youth. He did not even glance down at his sister, who stood small, soft eyed and gentle at his side. The doctor knew something of the hisâ€" tory of the small. family thus momen- tarily united, and he had always fear- ed that if Stephen Leach did return it would only kill his mother. This, indeed, seemed to be the result about to follow. Presently the doctor took his leave He was a young man en~ guged in getting together a. good pracâ€" tice, and in his own interest; he had been forced to give up waiting for his patients to finish dying. It did not go on for a couple of days, but Mrs, Leach lived through that night in the same semicomatose state, The two watchers sat in her room unâ€" til supper time, when they left their mother in charge of a hired nurse, whose services Joyce had been forcâ€" ed to seek. After supper Stephen Leach seemed at last to find his tongue, and he talked in his quiet, almost gentle voice, such as some men possess, not about himself and the past, but about Joyce and the future. In a deâ€" liberate: businessâ€"like way he proceedâ€" ed to investigate the affairs of the dyâ€" ing woman and the prospects of her daughter; in a word, he asserted his authority as a brother: and Jayne was relieved and happy l‘o obey him, It is not in times of gayety that friendships are formed, lvut in sorrow or suspense During that long evening this broâ€" ther and sister suddenly became in- timate, more so than months of prosâ€" perous inlerrourse r-ould have made them. At 10 o’clock Stephen quietly insisted that Joyce should go to bed, while he lay down, all dressed, on the sofa. in the dining-room. “I am glad you are here," he said to Stephen, who accompanied him to the door‘ "It; would not do for yrur sisâ€" ter to be alone; this may go on for a couple of days.” “I shall sleep péi'fectly; it is not the first time 1 have slept in my clothes.” he said simply. They went upstairs together and told. the nurm of this: arrangement. Joyce remained for some moments by the bedside watching her mother’s peaceful sleep,and when she turned she found that Stephrn had quietly slipped away. \Vondering vaguely whether 119 had in- tentionally solved her (liffivulty as in the fraternal good night, she wrnt to her own room. The next morning Mrs. Leach was fully conscious and apâ€" peared to be stronger; nevertheless she knew that the end was near, She called her two children to her bedside and, turning her lilind vyes toward them, spoke in broken .sentvm‘es: A New York fidelity vompany has compiled statistics of the embezzleâ€" ments‘ of puM‘H- and m‘ivam funds dur- um: law, year.
