Evelyn laughed. "If you had ever been in hospital, Jeanie, yell would perceive how far your-fancies differ from_the prosaic real ,ity. Meantime, I have half a dozen notes 'and letters to' write; so au revoir!" She went gayly out of the room, leaving Jeanie to muse on her cool indifference. "How can she be always so' cool and self confident," thought impetuous little Jeanie to herself. "I wonder—how I irish I knew —if Evelyn ever was in love!" Those words—those very identical words —were in Captain Melford's mind at that self-same moment, as he leaned back in the cushioned seats of the Express train! For he remembered those weary hours or fevered pain when the sound of Evelyn Hargrave's light step on the 'echoing board floor of the Convalescent Ward had seemed like pulses of a new life. "Shall I call there," he asked himself.— "I can do no loss, after her kiad care of me, after the brittle.

"She don't care a straw for me," he thought with despairing energy, "and • I'll go back to-morrow; and get myself shot with all reasonable dispatch ! How strange it is that a strong man's whole destiny should turn on the pivot of a wonun's smile I I wish I never had seen her—l wish I had died before she came to wash the matted, bloody hair away from that wound on my temples—no, I don't either Confound it, I don't know what I do wish I" "Miss Hargrave, might I speak to you for a few moments?" said the housekeeper, put ting her 'slate-cohired cap-ribbons into the room, and Evelyn rose to attend her behest. - She did not observe that a little golden ornament bad become loosed from her chat elaine and slipped to the ground as she rose. Telford sprang td his feet to recover and re store it, but Evelyn was gone. • A locket of plain gold, the spring jeered by the fall, gave way in his hand, revealing a single lock of bright brown hair; waved in sunny ripples an d touched with gold.— Charles Melford's eyes dilated with strange as he gazed on the tell-tale lock—for knew that it was his own hair. He turned to see Evelyn Hargrave stand ing in the doorway with downcast lids and cheeks burning with vivid scarlet. "Give it to me, Captain Mefferd I" the exclaimed passionately, "I never dreame3 that yoh would know it—l never thought JP But Charles Melford, armed with a new courage, walked boldly up to "storm the eir trenchments." What- would he' not have done or dared, with the voiceless disclosure of that fairly locket to urge him on. "Evelyn," he said, taking both the flutter ing hands in his, "you never would have, cut that lock of hair from the Bice soldier's brow had you not cared for him, and now I am no longer afraid to tell you how deeply and tru ly I have loved yeti ever since those days of weary pain. Of all the world, Evelyn, you are dearest and most •prized in my sight —will you promise, one day to become my wife ?" "Oh, Charles. I fancied you did not care for me—l thought it was so unmaidenly to keep that hair, and yet—yet it was such a comfort to me!" ' Capt. Melford's heart gave a joyful leap under the gold army buttons that decorated his breast—it seemed like a strange, bright dream Who would have thought there was such an unwritten chapter of romance in your Hospital experience!" laughed Jeanie Mars ton, when captain Charles Melford *as gone, and Evelyn cried out her mingled happiness and sOrrowun her. little cousin's shoulderl— "For all your stately ways, Evelyn, you're every hit as sentimental as the worst of us." Evelyn Hargrave did not answer,—she only pressed closer to her breast the little locket that held the golden shrine of Charles Melford's hair, for somehow she felt as•if it had been au electric link of fire between her heart and that of the brave soldier she was so proird to call here!

"I was with him in his last moments," said the other, "and thought he died rich." "ND, he has left nothing behind," was re plied.
