    THE HIDDEN STREAM,
Deep, deep within my breast
Flows on my love for you,
Beneath the day's unrest
And all the long night through.
Whether I laugh or weep,
L.et life be grave or gay,
I feel that current keep
Its full resistless way.
And yet so deep it hides
That none has ever known
My being's inmost tildes
Are swayed by you alone,
Phoebe Lyde in Lippincott's.

the clerk pushed the register toward
her. As she dipped the pen into the
ink her eyes traveled over the array
of posters on the opposite wall, Yas,
there it was—"Piano Recital by Luel-

mann.”
Her cheeks grew red, her eyes
shone. The name she was about to

At last he spoke, and his voice, al
though grave, was kind. “You are
fond of music?”
Out of the depths of the girl's hum-
iliation a sudden light illumined her
face. “I love it!” she cried.
“Will you play something for me?”
“l--play for you?”
“Yes, if you are willing.”
Uncertain, hesitating, almost over
powered with confusion, she took her
seat upon the stool. She realized for
the first time the measure of her own
incompetence. Just for a moment the
thought trembled in her mind of a
brilliant fantasy with which she
meant to open her concert. But the
strange new doubt of herself that was
upon her led her to choose instead a
little nocturne of Chopin,
At first her fingers shook so that
the notes were weak and uncertain,
but gradually, as she played, her
nerves grew calm. This quiet room,
raised so far above the noise of the
city outside, seemed full of a peace
and refnetnent such as her life had
never known. The deeply lined face
above her spoke of things she could
only pleture with awe znd reverence.
Something within her responded deep-
ly to this new atmosphere.
The dramatic, overwrought mood
in which she had come to him gave
place to something calm and sweet,
The nocturne, with ita wistful minor
notes, seemed to be uttering all that
her tongue would have spoken If it
could. She knew that she was play-
ing as she had never played before.
There was silence In the room when
she finished. She sat still upon the
stool, quivering, not daring to raise
her eyes to his. Suddenly her self:
bontrol gave away, and she burst into
tears. In the midst of her sobs she
felt a Mand laid on her shoulder.
