'"You will come again .ady
"would you ..really like me to pa:
come ?'` I asked, as I bent over the
lowed. tie
will die if you leave me now." t'd
"Then I will come; but now it ig ho
time to return-a good night's rest m3
will do you a world of good." sal
"I wish you would not go." I
The tones were so full of entreaty, dii
so full of an unknown wanting, that thi
I paused. w
"You are. very much better, sir
surely you do not fear." e
"She will come to-night," he said RI
laying his hand on mine, and gizing
upon me with his dark, sunken;' but
burning eyes, "and I cannot meet her
alone."
I felt his pulse-there was no fe- Gi
ver, no delirium in its quiet beat.: I A
rose to go, but an unknown power tl
restrained me. Throwing aside my
wrappings, I sat down on the foot of ro
the bed. ca
"An hour, more than an hour!" he
murmured, "HaveI changed much ?" to
"Very much, I answered, sad- R
ly. to
"But she will know me-know ai
me anywhere." ti
"Yop are so much better," I re
plied, smoothing tht white pillow ; as
"in a few days you " will be able to ti
return home." s<
"When Madeline comes," he o0
murmured, "she will take me with 3l
her-" ii
1 shaded the light from the suf- fi
ferer's face; still his hand clasped
mnine,nand his searching glance res- e:
ted on the closed door. c
A night in a hospital! To sit ti
surrounded by the dying and the to
sulfering: to feel the clasp of a fo- t
vered hand, as if it was sending its s
molten lava through your being- p
life and death, earth and imnmnortali- s
tv. e
I was startled from my revery by u
the sudden movement of my patient, x'
and the glad cry that rung from his a
lips
"She Bias come !"
The door swung noiselessly back I
on its hinges; a tall, magnificently
formed woman, whose black gar- t
mneil swayed lightly to and fro, and1
over whose shoulders hung a wealth
of raven hair, stood within the open
1 portals. The large, passionate eyes
rone.froun bed to bed to bed; then
she glided forward, nearer and near
er, until it seemed to me an unseen I
shadow clung around her.
I looked upon my patient. His
arms were extended; a smile lighted
up his whole face. The woman
knelt by the low bed, her amns wound
e round that d'ying man, and her lips
t pres.sed passionately to his.
t" A glory not of earth ftell over the
'r white face ; the limbs relaxed. I
bent eagerly forward, suppressing
the cry that rose to my lips. In the
dimnt fainmt light my patient was
al'one.
1 gazed eagerly around. Surely
is I did not dreumn I brought the
,t light ts hlear upon my patient's fea
tures. lie was dead.
Throwing the sheets over the
stilled torun, I hastened to the wat'ch
ers department. They bore him
quietly into another clhamsber. 1lis
c- hands were clasped tightly over his
chest. Within them lay- a cl'',ed
case containing two minsmatures. 1
' unf'stened it. The one side contain
ed a picture of the unknown\ dead;
the other--and there burst upon my
view the mirrored self of that beau
titfil woman-this Madeline. It
to was handed me to retain untii e'llhed
n for.
There were no mouruners; but I
! gathered white roses and flung bacek
to life's duties a sadder, and, 1 trust
a better woman.
