Ings, Take it into consideration, old
fellow. An revoir!"
And Harry Withers, touching his
hat, hurried off at the corner oi the
Street the two friends hud aj
proached together.
Rush Travers walked on alone. The
words to which he had just listened
had been lightly, jestingly spoken;
but somehow they had hurt. Was
It true that he wu ungrateful? Did
the heart never cry out, in its empti
ness, even when filled with the favor of
fortune, the good will of men, the
enreasingr smiles of women? Did not
the two latter hang upon the former?
What man, what woman enred for
the man nnd not the outward sur
roundings which he owod to chance?
The one true heart on which he
might have leaned WU stilled for
cecr. Ten yenra before, in the first flush
of bia young manhood, he had lost
hia mother. There now remained
to him but a cherished, idolized mem
ory. Ilia father hud died in hia in
fancy. He had neither brother nor
sister.
At tS he had fallen in love with a
wozaan whose falseness he had dia
cowre in time to save the wreck of
his life, though scarcely of hia happi
ness. ,
He stood alone in the world alone
en his riehb frelgbted bark. Could
all its treasures atone for the realiz
ing sense of desolation the world lm
parted. "Will you buy my violet, pleaaa,
sir? Onlv a ime, air!"
It waa a sweet, pitiful, pleading'
voice a sweet, little, pitiful face,
looking at him from beneath the brim
of a tattered hat, tferuat on to a
mass of bright chestnut curia.
Children ware Rush Travers' weak
ness. At any time he could take into
his arma a crying child and huah lte
sorrow. j
He thrust his hand into his pocket
and drew therefrom a pieoe of sil
ver, which he placed in the tiny, out
stretched palm; then, from very idle
ness, he walked on, questioning the
little girl, who ran beside him. I
"Poor little waif. How aingularly
pretty ahe is!" he thought.
"What is youf name?" ha asked.
"Pansy, sir," she anawered. "Mam
ma used to say it wus the color of
my eyes."
He leoked down with a smile in the
purple depths, half-shaded by the
long lashes, upraised from the brown
cheuka.
"Wbere is your mother?" be asked.
"Tn Heaven, sir."
"And your father?"
"He is dead, too."
"With whom do yon live?"
"With a woman who fa kind to me,
and whom I pay by selling my flowers.
I am all alone in the world 1"
"Alone in the world 1 Who could
realise as he the pathetic eloquence
held in the simple avowal? But if
to him the word meant so much to
him in the pride and strength of man-'
hood, and position, and wealth what
new meaning did it gather when it
ineluded dependence, and poverty,
and womanhood?
A sndden thought came to him. It
waa almost an inspiration. He lcfked
"nee more, earnestly, searehingly,
into the little, upturned face. j
The child waa beautiful; the eyes
were large and truthful; the mouth
showed character, which might be
molded for good or evil.
"Pansy," he said, scarcely conscious
of hia own intention until the words
had escaped him, "yon say that you
are alone in the world. So am I.
Suppose I make you my little girl?
Do you think that you would be hap
pier?" "Do you mean that I am to live
with you, and bring yon the money
for my flowers? Oh, I should like
that very, very much."
"I mean that you should Kve with
me, yes; but you will not sell flowers
then, though you shall have all that
you want."
The child looked up in wondering
amazement. She could not compre
hend the words, but Rush Travers
had not uttered them lightly.
What he ahould make of the little
waif's future he had not determined.
It should greatly depend upon her
self; but while he lived she should
never again be friendless.
It waa an easy matter to gain the
consent of the woman with whom
ahe lodged. The sum he put into her
hands would more than requite her
for any loaa ahe might luCer tiroujra
Pansy'a flower-selling. From fha
woman, too, he learned something
more about the child's history. Her
parents were artists; the mother had
eked out a living by painting flower-
pictures on wood, after her hus-
hand s early death, which had oc
curred before Pansy's birth. Then,
when the little girl was about six
yunrs of age, two short years before,
she, too, had laid down the weary
burden of life, and the child was left
alone.
Of his new whim Rush Travers said
nothing. It leaked out, however,
smong his fashionable acquaintances
that he was interested in n little child,
but all supposed it some relative, and
looketl upon it as a passing caprice.
Ho wished that it should be so. He
did not want curious eyes prying
into the pat of one whose future
he intended to make his care.
Tho world saw little of him in these
days. It almost seemed to him like
coming home, now that he knew little
feet would run to welcome him. lit
tle arms clasp themselves a I unit his
neck; or later, a little ctrrly head rest
on his shoulder, while the lids
drooped over the pansy eyes, in hap
py, careless slumber.
The old housekeeper alone shared
his secret. She had abused him
roundly at first, as was her privilege.
Was he not to her as her own boy'.'
But ere ') hours hail passed little
Pansy had crept into the kind old
heart; and in the night she had risen
from her own bed, and stolen Into
the room adjoining hers, to see that
the clothes were carefully tucked
ssnut the little form.
It was n new thing to the child,
this watchful care, hut she grew and
expanded under it like some beautiful
flower.
No one detected her in an untruth.
She avowed her faults boldly. She
laughed, she sang, she cried, as other
children; yet about her was n singu
lar chnrm, a half-sadness, strangely
unlike the carelessness of childhood.
Thus two years rolled away, and
again Hush Travers determined to go
abroad. Pansy must be educated,
too, but he knew now what he meant
to do with her future. The child waa
dear to him as his own, and his own
she should be. He would give her
such an education as his own daugh
ter should have had, had he possessed
one. He would make her a brilliant
woman. She should be worthy of'
some man whom he would choose for
her husband. She would never know
loneliness more, and in the fullness
3f her life's promise he would for
get the emptiness of his own.

tho school at which she waa to be
educated.
Little did Madam Arnand dream
that she was receiving among her.
select aad fashionable pupils a street
flower-girl. Was the girl not the,
niece and ward of the aristocrat? She
had never welcomed a pupil with
greater pride, nor did the years, as
they eame and went, lead her for one
moment to suspect the truth.
Among all this fair bevy of girls
none were so fair as ahe who owed
the smooth outer current of her
life to Rush Travers' passing caprice.'
1 he deep blue eves had borrowed even
more of the pansy's purple tint; the
bright rose -flush of health was on
her cheeks; the rich carmine nature's
brush alone can paint waa upon her
lips. In the sunny waves of the chest
nut hair played gleams of rippling
fold. Her hands and feet were small
and dainty. Her figure had developed
into exquisite grace.
The eight years of study had
marked themselves upon the lovely
face in its bright expression and
parkling intelligence. Rash Travers
might well be proud of her to whom
He had given hia proud old name. In
all thia time he had seen her but
once hut once he had returned to
hia native land. 1
In the twilight he stood awaiting
her in Madam Arnand'a private room;
but, when the door opened, he started
at the radiant vision which entered.
She threw herself upon his breast,'
with a glad sob, then started back.

He hod recovered himself by then.
tnd welcomed her warmly; but some,
thing had arisen between them her
womanly perception was first to rec
ognize. Already this meeting, to
whieh she had looked forward with
such gladness, waa marred.
From all sides, that night, Mr.
Travers was met with congratulations
on the beauty and brilliance of his
ward, who had received the first
honors of her class. Was the old
cynicism growing on him, that he
turned from it ali as though weary?
For the first time, glancing
casually in a mirror, he discovered
that the thick, brown hair was
streaked with gray, and the sight
hurt him. Why? He neither asked
the question nor answered it.
There was no doubt now of Pansy's
future, he told himself, as, having
thrown open hfu hospitable doors, the
world flocked there to welcome this
new aspirant to ita honors; but, al
most to his surprise, he found that
he could not remain quietly in the
background, a spectator. Women
still amiled upon him, still murmured
sweet nothings in his ear, or uttered
gentle reproaches at hia obduracy.
Was he never to be lured from his
solitude? Some one soon would steal
from him the bright star which now
lighted his home. Would he be con
tent to leave it in darkness? Thus
they whispered in his ear.
Why should he resent it, rather
than welcome it? Had he not planned
for her a brilliant marriage? Already
it was assured to her if aha would ac
cept it. Why, then, did he rejoice as
uao aad another retired, haajja
aeartfid, from tho lists?
j He grew to hate the world anew.
, Sow and then would come a quite
evening, when, sitting alone In hia
library, she would steal softly in, as
j she had done so often in the old,
childish dtivs, and, sitting on a stool
at his feet, lay her soft, velvet cheek
upon bit hand.
Would sin me to him thus, one
day. and tell him that nt last she had
given away her heart? And would he
be strung enough to give her his bleae-
lugf
Ah, lie hail learned his own secret
now!
One evening they went together to
a brillisnf gathering. A murmur rsf
j admiration ran through the room as
I she entered it, but something in it all
wearied her to-night.
She refused the many eager elatm
I tints for the dame, and stood watch
! ing the gay scene, surrouaded by a
I tittle court, when, looking up. she saw
liush Travels' eyes fixed on her face.
With a sudden Impulse she moved
. s iftly to his side.
"I am tired. Uncle Rush," she saM.
"The garden is thrown open. Win

little while?"

Hut they heard no more. Pansy fell
the strong rjiiiver which ran through
him as he drew a Way.
"Oh, Uncle Kiuh." she murmured,
"I am so, so sorry!"
"Sorry for what ?" he answered, al
most harshly. "For keeping my secret
so poorly that it is a football for
the world? For selfishly gloating
when other men were unsuccessful
in gaining the treaaure I so madly

with them to bring- them on the way.

they have done sltogrther according to the
rry of it, which is tome unto BM and If

. And the mm turned their faces from
thenre, and went toward Bodom; but Abra
ham stood yet before the Lord.
And Abraham drew near, and said.
Wilt thou also destroy tho righteous with

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The Scriptare to be read includes
Ihe story of the destruction of Sodom
aad Lot's escape (Gen. 18:119:30).
Xntertaiaiag Angels. The visit of
angels is marked because it in
cluded an appearance of Jehovah Ilasa
elf. Abraham did not recognize Him
at first, but his eyes were opened be
fore the departure of his visitono.
What Abraham did as a welcome to
the angels he would no doubt have
done for any other travelers. It was
the custom of the time and the coun
try, aad atlU is the custom of the land,
to welcome visitors as though they
"eeo eorferring a favor rather than
receiving one.
The Intercession for Sodom. Abra
ham, in aooompanylng his guests as
they departed, was still following the
custom of the time. The revelation of
God's intention concerning Sodom was
i taken of the honor in which Abra
ham was held by the Lord. The depar
ture of the angels left Abraham alone
ia the presence of Jehovah. It had not
bean said distinctly that the city waa
to be deatroyed, but Abraham knew
enough about the plaoe to be sure that
destruction would result. The inter-
session was not only for Lot's soke,
however, but was made out of pity for
a the people. The righteous, in Abra
ham's sense, were not eo much reli
gious men as men who made an honest
sttesapt to do right. Such an attempt
Includes some sense, though not al
ways an intelligent one, of the inter
est of Ood ia the effort. The fearless
ness of Abraham's appeal to the Jus
tice of Ood (V. 25) is remarkable. The
srgumeart does not hold in practical
life, because the righteous suffer with
the wicked; but we are tanght that the
righteous are the means of delaying
and lightening God's judgments (Is.
1:9; Matt. 5:13; 24:23). United with
boldness In Abraham's petition is a
marked humility. This characteristic
appears in his speaking of himself as
dust and ashes, and in his deprecatory
word in verses 30, 31, 32. The story
illustrates the value of prayer to the
man who offers k. God was as ready
at first to spare Sodom for ten as for
69 righteous men.
The Rescue of Lot. Lot was a right
eous man, but too tolerant of evil.
And just here is where ao many
Christians manifest a fatal weakness.
They know the good but are domiaat
ed by the evil. Sod tragedy was this
in the life of Lot. A tragedy which
had it beginning when Lot, on sep
arating from Abraham and his right
eous influence, pitched his ten to
wards Bodom. It was not long ere
he waa in the city itself. Step by
step he became n dweller amidst
wickedness if not nn actual partici
pant therein. Hat God plucked him
as a brand from the burning. Have
we not here a picture of many Chris
tians who arc so in love with the
world and the things of the world
(1 John 2:15) that at last God will
have to save them so as by fire? 1
Cor. 3:15.

The book that has inspired the race
does not need to prove its own inspira
