CHAPTER X
Three ar thev which folio the larah whlthar
eoever h gotU.
When Dr. Brnce and tha liishop en
tered the StcrlinK mnnsion. everything
in the usually well appointed honKehuld
was in the greatest confusion und ter
ror Th3 great rooms down stairs were
empty, but overhead were hurried foot
steps and confused noises incut' the
servants run down the grand staircase
with u look of horror on her face just
as the bishop and Dr. Bruce were start
ing to go np.
"Miss Felicia is witn Mrs. Bteriiag,
the servant stammered in answer to a
question und then burst into u hyster
ical cry and ran through the drawing
room and ont of doois.
At the top of frhe staircase the two
men wero met by Felicia.
She walked up to Dr. Bruce at once
and put both hands in hia The hixhop
laid his band on her head, and the three
tood there a moment in perfect silence.
The bishop had known Felicia since
she was a child He was the tirst to
break silenca
"The God of all mercy bo with yon
Felicia, in this dark hour. Your moth
er" The bishop hesitated. Out of the
buried past he had during his hnrried
passage from his friend's house to this
house of death irresistibly drawn tha
one tender romance of his yonng man
hood. Not even Bruce knew that. But
there had been a time when the bishop
had offered the incense of a singularly
undivided affection upon the altar of
his youth to the beautiful Camilla
Rolfe, and she had chosen between him
and the millionaire. The bishop carried
no bitterness with his memory, bat it
was still a memory.
Foa answer to the bishop's unfinished
query Felicia turned and went back
into her mother's room. She bad not
said a word yet. bnt both men were
struck with her wonderful calm. She
returned to the hall door and beckoned
to thsin, and the two ministers, with a
feeling that they were about to behold
something very unusual, entered.
Rose lay with her arms outstretched
on tha bed; Clara, the nurse, sat with
her hes4 covered, sobbing in spasms of
terror, and Mrs. Sterling, with "the
light that never was on sea or land"
luminous on her face, lay there so still
that even tha bishop was deceived at
first Then as tha great truth broke
upon him and Dr. Brace he staggered,
and the sharp agony of the old wound
shot through him. It passed and left
him standing there in that chamber of
death with tha eternal calmness and
strength that tha children of God have
a right to possess, and right well he
used that calmness and strength in the
days that followed.
Tha next moment the house below
was in a tumult Almost at the same
time the doctor, who had been sent for
at once, bnt lived some distance away,
came in, together with police officers
who had been summoned by the fright
ened servants. With them were fonr or
five newspaper correspondents and sev
eral neighbors. Dr. Bruce and the
bishop met this miscellaneous crowd at
the head of the stairs and succeeded in
excluding all except those whose pres
ence was necessary. With these the two
friends learned all the facts ever known
rbout "the Sterling tragedy," as the
reapers in their sensational accounts
next day called it
Mr. Sterling had gone into his room
that evening about 0 o'clock, and that
tvaa the last seen of him nntil in half
an hour a shot was heard and a servant
who was in the hall ran into the room
and fonnd the owner of the house dead
on the floor, killed by his own hand.
Felicia at the time was sitting by her
mother. Rose was reading in the li
brary. She ran up stairs, saw her father
as he was being lifted npon the couch
by the servants and then ran screaming
into her mother's room, where she flung
herself down on the foot of the bed in
a swoon. Mrs. Sterling had at first
fainted at the chock, then rallied with
wonderful swiftness and sent a mes
senger to call Dr. Bruce. She had then
insisted on seeing her husband In spite
of Felicia, she had compelled Clara and
the housemaid, terrified and trembling,
to support her while she crossed the
hall and entered the room where her
husband lay. She had looked npon him
with a tearless face, had gone back into
her own room, was laid on the bed and
as Dr. Brnce add the bishop entered the
house she, with a prayer of forgiveness
for herself and her husband on her
quivering lips, had died with Felicia
bending over her and Rose still lying
senseless at her feet.
So great and swift had been the en
trance of grim death into that palace
of luxury that Sunday night, bnt the
full cause of his coming was not known
nntil tha facta in regard to Mr. Ster
ling's business affairs were finally dis
closed Then it waa learned that for some
time ha had been facing financial ruin
owing to certain speculations that had
in a month s time awept his supposed
health into complete destruction. With
the canning add desperation of a man
who battles for his very life, when he
aaw hia money, whieh waa all the life
he ever valued, slipping from him ha
had pat off tha evil day to tha last mo
atnt Sunday afternoon, however, he
had reeelvad news that nrorsd to him
beyond a doubt the fact of his attar
ma. The very house that he called hia.
to whieh he eat hie carriage,
the dishes from which he ate. had all
been bought by money for which be
himself bad never really done an honest
stroke of pure laber
It had all rested on a tissue of deceit
and speculation that had no foundation
in real values. He knew the fact better
than any one eise. bnt he had hoped
with the hope that such men always
have, that the same methods thst
brought him the money wonld also pre
vent its loss. He hsd been deceived in
this, ss many others have been. As
; soon as the truth that he was practical
; ly a beggar had dawued npon him he
, saw no escape from suicide It waa the
I irresistible result of such a life as he
! had lived He had made money his god
I As soon as that god had gone out of his
i little world there was nothing more to
! worship, and when a man's object of
' worship is gone be has no more to live
' for Thus died the great millionaire.
I Charles R. Sterling, and. verily, he died
; as the fool dieth. for what is the gain
1 or tho loss of money compared with the
I unsearchable riches of eternal life, which
; aro far beyond the reach of' worldly
' speculation, loss ur change?
' Mrs. Sterling's death was the result
of shock. She had not been taken into
her husband's confidence fur years, but
she knew that the source, of his wealth
I was precarious Hor life for several
I years had Wn a death in life. The
I Knifes always gave the impression that
they could endure more disaster nn

Illustrated the old family tradition
I when the was curried into the room
I where her husband lay. but the feeble
teneniont could not hold the spirit, and
I it gave up thu ghost, torn and weakened
by long years of suffering and disap
I pointment
The effect of this triple blow, the
death of father and mother and the loss
of property i was instantly apparent in
thu suters. Tho horror of events stupe
fied Hose for weeks She lay unmoved
by sympathy or any effort to rally. She
did not seem yet to realist that the
money which had been so largo a part
of her very existence was gone Even
when she whs told thst she and Felicia
must leave thu house and be dependent
upon relatives and friends she did not
sooni to understand what it meant
Felicia, howover. was fully conscious
of the facts. She knew just what had
happened and why She was talking
over her future plans with her cousin
Rachel a few days after the funerals.
Mrs. Winalow and Rachel had left Ray
mond and come to Chicago at onco as
soon as the terrible news had reached
them, and with other friends of the
family they were planning for the fu
ture of Rose and Felicia.
"Felicia, you and Rose must come to
Raymond with us That is settled
Mother will not hear of any other plan
at present," Rachel had said, while her
beautiful face glowed with love for her
cousin, a love that had deepened day
by day and was intensified by the
knowledge that they both belonged to
the new discipleship.
"Unless I could find something to do
here," answered Felicia. She looked
wistfully at Rachel, and Rachel said
gently i
"Whst could you do, dear?"
"Nothing. I was never taught to do
anything except a little music, and I
do not know enough about it to teach
it or earn my living at it I have learned
tocook a little." Felicia answered, with
a slight smile.
"Then you can cook for us. Mother
is always having trouble with her kitch
en," said Rachel, understanding well
enough that Felicia was thinking of the
fact that she was now dependent for
her very food and shelter npon the kind
ness of family friends.
It is true, tho girls received a little
something out of the wreck of their fa
ther's fortune, but with a speculator's
mad folly he had managed to involve
both his wife's and his children's por
tions in the common ruin.
"Can I? Can I?" Felicia replied to
Rachel's proposition, as if it were to be
considered seriously. "I am ready to do
wything honorable to make my living
uid that of Rose. Poor Rose! She will
never be able to get ever the shock of
our trouble."
"Wo will arrange the details when
we get to Raymond, ' ' Rachel said, smil
ing through her tears at Felicia's eager
willingness to care for herself.
So in a few weeks Rose and Felicia
found themselves a part of the Winslow
family in Raymond It was a bitter ex
perience for Ruse, but there was noth
ing else for her to do, and she accepted
the inevitable, brooding over the great
change in her life and in many ways
adding to the burden of Felicia and her
cousin RacheL
Felicia at once found herself in an
ttmesphere of discipleship that was like
heaven to her in its revelation of com
panionship It is true that Mrs. Wins
low was not in sympathy with the
course that Rachel was taking, but the
remarkable events since the pledge had
been taken were too powerful in their
results not to impress even such a wom
an as Mrs Winslow. With Rachel Fe
licia found a perfect fellowship. She at
once found a part to take in the new
work at the Rectangle. In the spirit of
her new lifo she insisted upon helping
in the housework at her aunt's and in
a short time demonstrated her ability
as a cook so clearly that Virginia sug
gested that she take charge of the cook
ing class at the Rectangle.
Felicia entered upon this work with
the keenest pleasure. For the first time
in her life she had the delight of doing
something of value for the happiness of
others Her resolve to do everything
after asking, "What wonld Jesus do?"
touched her deepest nature. She began
to develop and strengthen wonderfully.
Even Mrs. Winslow was obliged to
acknowledge the great nsefulness and
beauty of Felicia's character. The aunt
looked with astonishment upon her
niece, this city bred girl, reared in the
greatest luxury, the daughter of a mil
lionaire, now walking around in her
kitchen, her arms covered with flour
and oncasionaUy a streak of it oa her

rubbing her nose forgetfully when she
was trying to remember some recipe -mixing
various dishes, with the great
wt interest In th.ir results, washing np
pans and kettles and doing thu ordinary
work of a servant in the Winslow
kitchen and at the rooms of the Rec
tangle settlement At first Mrs. Wins
low remonstrate L
"Felicia, it is not your place to lie
ont here doing this common work. I
cannot allow it. "
"Why. aunt? Don't you li!:o tho
mnfiins I made this morning?" Felicia
would ask meekly, but with u hidden
smile, knowing her aunt's weakness for
that kind of muffin.
"They were beautiful Felicia, but it
does not seem rijlit for you to bo doing
such work for us"
"Why not? What else can I dot"
Her aunt looked ut her thoughtfully,
noting her remarkable beauty of face
and expression.
"You do not always intend to do
this kind of work. Felicia?"
"Maybe I shall. I have had n dream
of opening an ideal cookshop in Chi
cago or some large city and going
around to tho poor families in some
tdnni district like the Rectangle, teach
ing tho mothers how to prepare food
properly. I remember hearing Dr. Brnce
say onco that ho believed one of the
great miseries of comparative poverty
consisted in poor food Ho even went
so far as to say that be thought some
kinds of crime could be traced to soggy
biscuits and tough beefsteak. I'm con
fident I would be ablo to mako a living
for Rose and myself and at the same
time to help others. "
Felicia brooded over this dream until
it became a reality. Meanwhile she
grew into tho affections of tho Ray
mond people and the Rectangle folks,
among whom rsho was known as "the
angel cook." Underneath the structure
of the beautiful character she was grow
ing always rested her promise mado in
Nazaret h Avenue church.
"What wonld Jesus do?" Shn prayed
and hoped and worked and planned hur
lifo by tho answer to that question.
It was the inspiration of her conduct
and the answer to all her ambition.
Threo months had gone by since the
Sunday morning when Dr. Brnco came
into his pulpit with the message of tho
new discipleship. Never beforo bad the
Rev. Calvin Brnce realized how deep
the feelings of his members flowed. He
humbly confessed that the appeal ho
had made met with an unexpected re
sponse from man and women who, liko
Felicia, were hungry for something in
their lives that the conventional type of
church membership and fellowship had
failed to give them.
But Dr. Bruce was not yet satisfied
for himself We cannot tell what his
feeling was or what led to the movo-
aient he finally made, to the great as
tonishment of all who knew him, better
than by relating a conversation be
tween him and the bishop at this time
in the history of the pledge in Nazareth
Avenue church. The two friends wero,
as before, in Dr. Brace's house, seated
in his study.
"You know what I have come in this
evening forY" the bishop was saying
after tho friends had been talking some
time about the results of the pledge
with Nazareth Avenue peopla
Dr. Bruce looked over at the bishop
and shook his head
"I have come to confess, " went on
the bishr.p, "that I havo not yet kept
my promise to walk in his steps in the
way that I believe I shall bo obliged to
if I satisfy my thought of what it
means to walk in his steps. "
Dr. Brace had risen and was pacing
his study. The bishop remained in the
deep easy chair, with his hands clasped
bat his eye burned with the glow that
always belonged to him before he made
some great resolve.
