face Til not be promoted tor a and even then ray regular salary does not begin for six months he said Father utterly refuses to help me and on what I get now I- would not think unify I hid a home to take my wife to So I exclaimed with a sudden idea Well what then Then Nothing I That the end I the home nor can I get it I marry on what I have now and into one or two rooms in a cross street have her do her own work and live from hand to mouth generally but I wont do it Then you want to begin in style do you I asked disapprovingly No but nicety Jean is not afraid of work and would gladly be gin at the lowest round with me but she is refined and cultivated and I would be unhappy to deny her en She teaches music now be lieve said I Yes but has a coty comfortable home with her mother Mrs Del- mar is a lovely woman and has given Jean most of her education She has seen much belter days am sure They read together play and study and I could not take Jean from such a life and make a household drudge of her- Max sighed disconsolately and I was in deep thought we were silent for some I was sorry for him My young life been Waited by a ricb father- stepping between me and the loved who was poor and now here was my brotherinlaw do ing the same thing with his son So deeply had my disappointment affect ed my life that had never married j the one love had been all my heart had ever known and tonight I can see her blue eyes as they looked into mine twentyfive years and hear her voice but pshaw its Maxs love you want to hear not mine What would you like I asked abruptly Like repeated Max startled from his reflections Yes what enable you to marry at once A home for my wife We could live nicely on my salary If I bad that but bills would leave nothing I went Into reflection again and lived over in my own mind the wis er poor Max was now Oh how I would have appreciated some when been there and now ft lay in my power to extend that help to another worthy and similarly sit uated Max said I suddenly with an uncontrollable shake In my voice- my dear boy give me your hand I know how you feel and I Intend to help you I had ihls tame experience when I was your age and it has made my life the lonely one that It Is time will tell you nil about it Go right to your little sweetheart and tell her to set the day at once when you are married you will have a home to take her to Uncle Ben cried Max starting to his feet and wringing my painfully I I dont know what to say to you l Dont say anything I dont want von to said rather crustily to hide my feelings Take your hit and go Ive got some business that I must attend to at once Max was evidently as glad to go as I was to have him What queer no tions men have about holding their feelings I saw that bis eyes were shining tike diamonds through a of tears as he wrung my hand again and said in a voice with several emotions God bless you Uncle iheri he rushed and sat down to think a little and wipe away my own tears New York was a mean place for a couple to begin and begin Nothing but fiats and to my opinion a flat is no home But in the far end of Brooklyn was as sweet and cozy a little house as any one rich or poor could want A sweet sunny little hoiiie surrounded with and aud just the place for any little woman with a heart and busy hands lo make a bowerlike home of The owner wanted to sell so the sooner I saw him the better and with that decision I jumped up pur on my wrappings was soon trund ling oft in an uptown car I dont l like newfangled notions and the j makes me nervous It was a cold blustery night and had a long ride before me So set tled in my comer and for a long while no one and then a young girl came in and sat down op me and I could help but watch her The lamplight fell square ly on her face and she could no see me looking at her so did so unre servedly and thought had never seen one sweeter or more refined She was cold and tired that I saw r she shivered a little once or twice her lace was pale and sad with a drop about the mouth and shadows under the large eyes blue as clematis with fringing lashes The dim light showed her plainly but neat ly dressed and the looked the more I became interested until I sud denly became aware that another man was similarly engaged and deliberate ly turned and faced her a movement that caused the color to come and leave her face though she tried to appear unconscious of the impu dence I struggled with a sudden de sire to choke him and very probably would hate made a move of some kind had he not turned away But at the next crossing she left the car he did likewise and without a second thought arose and followed Would the scoundrel speak to her My blood danced wildly through my veins as thought of it and watched him gaining on her rapid nervous walk We were all close together she a trifle in advance he close be hind and almost in his steps when be suddenly gained her side and I distinctly heard his words Miss I hope you will pardon me but I would like to know you You are a beautiful and- He got no farther for one blow from my clenched fist sent him staggering against a neat railing after which I turned quickly to her Dont be frightened child I will see you safely home She was shrinking and trembling like a leaf but my fatherly tone seemed to reassure her for she gave one quick appealing glance into my race Over which the gaslight flickered then drew neuer to- me with a frightened shudder Thank you kindly Is only block below What a charming birdlike voice Jusi as refined and ladylike as she looked I drew one trembling hand under my arm noticing she a roll of music in the other and then we started ahead She did not speak again and I felt her still trembling but on the block below she paused at the doorway and with drawing her hand said Wont you please come in moth er would like to you and I would be pleased to have you She threw the door open as the spoke and I was just on Ihe point of declin ing with thanks when the parlor door was thrown open and without a glance at me Max rushed out I Jean why are you so late I was terribly worried and- Then he looked beyond at me and earth t Uncle Hen Max I I responded with a gasp and then for one full minute the air fairly iuivcred- with exclama tion points I dont understand 1 didnt know began Max In niter be wilderment which could not he wondered at You me to get here as soon as you did you I managed to say with a laugh as the facts in the case slowly began to dawn upon me Well Max Im as astonished as you are And is this Miss- Del- mar I added turning to Jean who advanced perfectly silent with astonishment Yes sir she said holding out her hand a charming smile and it I correctly understand It Is Maxs uncle to whom I am so in debted I am so delighted find It so us go in I still smiting at Maxs bewildered face and when she went away off her things I explained the case to Max And you were out in our behalf he exclaimed after hiving Indulged In a vain rage at Jeans encounter 0 Uncle Ben you are good You will be rewarded some way J My will be in seeing you spared the I surtered and still answered much touched by his emotion and gratitude She is a dear sweet little girl Max a true lovely little woman Make her your wife as toon as she is wil ling and remember what I said this evening Max was about to answer when Jean returned smiting and sweet as a flower with pretty bows as blue as her eyes fastened In her snug hair and the smites rippling over her face as she talked to us Mamma Ii late too she said at the clock We are neither of us ladies of leisure she added with a laugh at me Mamma Is a vuiilng governess and am a poor music teacher Dont you think Max made a very singular choice A very happy one I answered but at that the outside doer opened and Jean jumped up This is mam mi excuse me a moment please looked around the room while she was and further formed my these two It was small cosy with odd of bric- abrac a few fine- pictures many books tasteful homemade a wellworn piano and a harp It spoke of better so mo sudden adversity and good care of what had been left from the wreck There was refinement taste This is the gentleman I suddenly heard Jeans voice sayinf Mr Damon let me Introduce ray mother- I hastily turned and arose with my very best bow held out my hand and then came before my eye and she nextl knew Maxs sound ing far off was saying Uncle Ben are very ill Then sight catod back p me slow ly and I saw two astonished half frightened young laces on either side and before me a tall sweetfaced woman with bands of nutbrown hair just slightly tinged wilh gray and the blue eyes bad never forgotten Louise Louise I I cried throw ing out my arms in a SOU of fear that it was a dream Louise is it you Yes Ben answered the voice I bad not heard for twentyfive years Then she was sobbing in ay arms tike a girl and I oh well consider ing that Ive turned fiftyfive Im ashamed to speak of myself Both of the people seemed to comprehend matters by this time I bad said enough to Max and Louise had probably told her daughter for neither asked any questions but felt to rejoicing with us at once I cant say anything Uncle Ben I My heart is too full exclaimed Max seizing the first opportunity to shake both my hands while Jean went into a rapture over her mother I knew you would be rewarded- Such kind ness as yours is never in vain And now to think how very happy- we all are But lhank God my boy that your happiness has not come to after draining for years the very dregs of bitter cup lhat I have Your happiness love axe in their spring time ours come to us as a golden harvest and only the winter of life will be ours together Dont say that cried Max gay- Youve both fifty years to live yet and well dance at- your wedding wont we Yes if they will at ours laughed Jean But I might write on and on and I never could describe the rest of that glorious evening or how we alt were I wont try because you all know bow buoyant Max was and as I said before Ive turned fifty five Im ashamed to speak of life tool lis STOUFFVILL People ire wondering if the village sidewalks are to
