"You merely told me." said I, "that the man was going to pieces because something was preying on his mind and you couldn't find out what it was." "Precisely," rescinded the doctor. ' This is the way of It: He was brought to me by the girl who's going to marry him. Ilcr name is Martha. She's a bright, smurt. pretty girl who earns her living by hard work very cheerfully, J and she loves this man with all her j heart. "It was she who found out that he Vns 111.

"I explained to her that it was usu ally necessary for a physician to see ills patient, for the purpose of making the two guesses of the profession— What's the matter with the person? and How much of a bill will he stand? She showed a proper appreciation of ( my pleasantry, and we concocted a ' scheme by which Ileinrich was indue j ed to i>ay me a visit.

"Obviously nervous exhaustion—the man was organically healthy, and his j life was well regulated—so I said. I 'There's something on your mind.' "He looked at me with those gentle, honest blue eyes and shook his head 1 slowly in a sort of wonder. How could : he be worried by anything in the midst of so much good fortune? I already knew that he was going to marry Mar tha. Was not that enough to make any one happy?

A moment later I had to leave the j car. but throughout the day I carried ; si !>\ i ind a thought of the doctors! musician. In the latter i»art of the . nfteriioon I drifted into a studio build- i l;i;r- where I organised a little dinner I j-artv. When we api>earod ait the Mount j Holly, then- were eight of us. includ ing three holies. Th'- ■ T was posted on the end of the veranda, and our party secured a table under the awning just below, j Prom my scat I had a tine view of the orchestra leader*?- face. Ileinrich sat placidly benide the railing of the ve randa. waiting until It should l«e time to play another selection. Some cirls from the Casino theater were laughing aud chattering at a table near us. the waiters were hanging disli «*s In a style of unexampled reckless ness. carriages were arriving, and men were sh >titlng to the attendants who took rare > 112 the horses, and over all i ar« -e the sand of laughter. Half the jH-ople present seemed to l»e laughing all the time. But Ileinrich was wholly undisturb ed. lb- t ok up some sheets of music and regarded the notes with a gentle, friendly interest. A waiter'just ltelow • him was tilling a tray with soiled dish es. and the noise was like the fall of ( the tower of Bal.cl. yet Ileinrich re- i maiiied us cnlm as n cow.

He made a tine gesture | i mmmWh ' HEIXRICH WAS WHOLLY IN DISTURBED. to his little force and called them to attention. They played an operatic se lection fairly well, accurately at least and with considerable intelligence. I watched ileinrich all the time, and I ! law his eyes wandering over the as- I sembly. Not n soul was paying the ' slightest attention to tho music except ; myself, lie looked over my head nt first, and liis glance mode n sort of round. It was easy to see that the act, • from frequent repetition, had become habitual. Thus always had he scanned j the utterly Irresponsive audiences of the Mount Holly. If there had been no music that even ing fully half that assembly would Dave felt aggrieved. It iwas to most of them only a noise In tho ears, btJt tney had been accustomed to it. The Mount Holly would not have been itself with- | out music, and by the same token some of the habitues would have been uneasy if the din of conversation bad been less or tho waiters hnd eoased to rattle the plntes. I saw Indeed a few j mf the guests who were really enjoying the music, but they w ore not doing it Inn way that n musician could under- j stand. Finally Ileinrich caught my eye, and I could perceive ut once that he wa both surprised and jileasod. Surely bt played at me during the remainder of the jilece, and I fancied that his execu- j tion sensibly improved. 1 had not told my companions about ; Holnrloh, but when tho music ceased I proceeded to do so. It is only fair to say that the others at my table had j been as Inattentive as the generality of | the Mount Holly's guests, but we all listened when Ileinrich rose again to ! lead his little band. This time It was not with him the customary forlorn ! hope. Ho showed the evidences of nn j uplifted heart. They played a serenade of Tltl's i which has long been dear to me, and I ! am bound to say that I have seldom ; heard it so well rendered. Our party 1 had planned to applaud, but we were j till so thoroughly pleased thnt the act ! had the full flavor of spontaneity. I > ■>■/. j ens of people around us Joined In the hand clapping, and ns most of tliem ; had not consciously heard a note they forced a repetition of the piece out • 112 mere curiosity. The manager of tho ' Mount llolly looked out to see wh. t was the matter, and I hnd a glimp 1 of him standing In the doorway round j eyed with astonishment. As for Ileinrich, he was serenely ec j stntlc. His eyes shone, lie gained two inches in stature, and when he turned after the second rendition of the scr j enade to thank his subordinates for their aid in winning this triumph I saw .urn wiping away tours with the hand- J kei■ liief that had been folded against the end of his fiddle. " I his is very nice to see," said the lady who sat at my right, "but I sus peet that il will be the ruin of your friend. He will want this always and will never have it again." W lien the next piece was finished, we wire t ting ready togo and forgot to applaud I thought of it too late and looked at Ileinrich.

At sight of tue he started and then flushed with pleasure as 1 greeted hiiu by nauie aiul thanked him for the Titl serenade. "You gave us the first applause wo had had." he said. "I was almost de spairing. though I told no one. The doctor even goes so far as to say that it was affecting my health, and indeed the artist needs souie little encourage ment. Is It not soV As 1 was trying to frame a reply he continued: "Hut if he does not get It that Is his fault. It is because he does not attain the proper standard. I was beginning to lose sight of that truth. I said to myself. The conditions are not favor nble —the noise and all that.' It is ruinous to get that idea. One can al ways succeed if he will deserve It "I think it, was your attentive atti tude that Inspired us. We played the serenade well. We won applause. Wo have had none since, but we are per fectly satisfi >d. When we merit it, wo shall get it.and if It takes us ten years we shall work on contentedly. "Do you know,l was almost afraid on that evening that you were going to applaud the second piece, which we murdered. It had been Insufficiently rehearsed. Wo do It better now. If you had applauded. It would have spoil ed all. But, no, you were too good a musician, for of course it was you who led the audience. There Is always nome ctitieal spirit to do that. I am tot always fortunate enough to catch his eye, hut he is there. I shall never doubt that. "Goodby," he added cheerily. "I hope you wiil soon come to the Mount Holly again." I tied, saying that I would. But I shall not dare. I might applaud In the wrong place and kill the artistic faith which It was my great good luck to re vive In Helnrich's breast. An rnami.Contrlbvtloa, A number of years ago Mr. and Leland Stanford were traveling through the middle west Incognito. They hap pened to be in Bloomington, I ml., one Sunday and, pursuant to their usual custom, went to church. They attend ed the Christian church of Blooming ton, then largely in the hands of Amzl At water. When the plate was passed for the collection, Mrs. Stanford drop ped in a ten dollar goldplece. Mr. At water was the deacon in charge of the collection taking. It was noticed that the ushers held a hurried conference with him when the money was taken forward. At its conclusion Mr. Atwater said: "Ladles and gentlemen, there has evl tlently been a mistake. Some one has dropped a ten dollar goldplece Into the collection. If he will pass up after the cervices, we will be glad to allow him to exchange It for the amount he In tended to give." It is, of course, needless to say that Mrs. Stanford did not take advantage Df the opi»ortuuity. SnperNtltloiin About liable*.

Civilization might bo measured by the size and number of tho spots un til, in the perfect civilization, I sup pose, It will be nil clean si»ot. But dif ferent races put the spots In different places; so, observing this, there has grown up a saying among the Euro peans In the east that tho Chinese wash their clothes, but uot themselves; the Japanese wash themselves, but not their clothes, and the Koreans wash neither.

Th« Trnvellntt Hoi), An objection to using handsome traveling bags and dress suit cases when on a Journey lies in the fact that they are usually heavy, even when un filled. A lightweight "roll," as It Is called, Is u prime convenience in travel ing. It Is not heavy and yet Is firm and capacious. Ji opens out quite fiat and has a shawl strap handle firmly stitched by the saddler to one end. The material of the roll is waterproof cloth resembling the Scotch plaldcd tartans; It Is lined wltb brown canvas. Tlio roll, undone, proves to be the size of h mat, either 27 inches square or a yard, according as you select the size. Inside the roll holds two deep pockets, each provided with envelope flaps which button over them. The pockets run the full width of tho roll and are 12 Inches deep usually. Between the two pockets Is a strip, like a socket, tu tended to hold two umbrellas or para Aols. Tho roll Is strapped up when packed by means of the two long straps tif fixed to the stout leather handle. It is very mu'.'h lighter than a dressing bag would be, and commends itself espe cially to ladles traveling. Women re qulro more articles for dressing In com fort than a man, and their wrists are not so strong as his for handling a suit case or dressing bag. Ilence they will appreciate the value of the traveling roll. " I wrote to Doctor Pierce, who sent me a very kind letter and advised me."
