myself thrust through this relation
with a man so intimately connected
for a generation with our public life.
For six months I had been in Missis-
sippi and Texas studying matters and
men. and now. just hack from Natchi-
Iim lies. 1 felt that I had earned some
little rest.
Vaguely in my conscience I felt
that, after all. my errand was Justi-
fied, even though at some cost to my
own wishes and my own pride. The
tart her I walked in the dark along
Pennsylvania avenue, into which final-
ly I swung after 1 had crossed Rock
bridge, the more I realized that per-
haps this big game was worth playing
in detail and without quibble as the
master mind should dictate.
1 was, indeed, young—Nicholas Trist,
of Maryland; six feet tall, thin, lean,
always hungry, perhaps a trifle freck-
led, a little sandy of hair, blue l sup-
pose a)f eye, although 1 am not sure;
good rider ^and good marcher, 1 know-
something of an expert with the
weapons of my time and people; fond

and a glass and a girl, if truth he told,

silk or dimity, the suspicion of ad-
venture, tempts th<’ worst or the best
of us, 1 fear. Woman' the very
sound of the word made my blood
leap then. I went forward rather
blithely, as 1 now blush to confess.

beth. but also said I was not yet 30.
Moreover, 1 was a gentleman, and
here might be a lady in need of help.
I need not say that in a moment 1 was
at the side of the carriage. Its occu-
pant made no exclamation of surprise;
in fact, she moved back upon the
other side of the seat in the darkness,
as though to make room for me!
A dark framed face, whoso outlines
I could only dimly see in the faint
light of the street lamp, leaned to-
ward me. The same small hand ner-
vously reached out, as though in re-
quest.
I now very naturally stepped closer.
A pair of wide and very dark eyes
was looking into mine. I could now
see her face. There was no smile
upon her lips. 1 had never seen her
before, that was sure—nor did 1 ever
think to see her like again; I could
say that even then, even in the half
light, .lust a trifle foreign, the face;
somewhat dark, but not too dark;
the lips full, the eyes luminous, the
forehead beautifully arched, chin and
enough, but not too full, and faintly
cleft, a sign of power, they say.
A third gracious lamp gave me a
glimpse of her figure, huddled back
among her draperies, and I guessed ■
her to be about of medium height. A | morning.

She smiled. There came to me from
the purple-colored shadows some sort
of deep perfume, strange to me. I
frown at the description of such
things and such emotions, hut 1 swear
that as I sat there, a stranger, I felt
swim up around me some sort of am-
ber shadow, edged with purple—the
shadow, as 1 figured it then, being
this perfume, curious and alluring! i
It was wet, there in the street. Why
should I rebel at this stealing charm
of color or fragrance—let those name

She started back on the seat as far

Woman Is seldom merciful to the man

There was one of our dim street
lights at a central corner on old Penn-
sylvania avenue, and under it, after
a long walk, 1 paused for a glance at
the inscription on my sealed docu-
ment. 1 had not looked at it before in
the confusion of my somewhat hur-
ried mental processes. in addition
to the name and street number, in Cal-
houn’s writing, I read this memo-
randum: "Knock at the third door
In the pecond block beyond M street.”
I recalled the nearest cross street;

seemed somewhat cryptic. Puzzled, I

Soon there was domestic infelicity,

to go back and bury yourself, as you ,

The sound of wheels behind me on
the muddy pavement called my atten-
tion, and I looked about. A carriage
came swinging up to the curb where
I stood. It was driven rapidly, and
as it approached the door swung open.
I heard a quick word, and the driver
pulled up bis horses. I saw the light
shine through the door on a glimpse
of white satin. I looked again. Yes,
It was a beckoning band! The negro
driver looked at me inquiringly

dress. 1 guessed she had been an at-
tendant at the great ball, that ball
which I had missed with so keen a re-
gret myself—the ball where I had
hoped to dance with Elizabeth. With-
out doubt she had lost her way and
was asking the first stranger for In-
structions to her driver.
My lady, whoever she was. seemed
pleased with her rapid temporary
scrutiny. With a faint murmur,
whether of invitation or not I scarce
could tell, she drew back again to the
farther Bide of the seat. Before I
knew how or why, I was at her side.
The driver pushed shut the door, and
whipped up bis team.
Personally 1 am gifted with but
small Imagination. In a very matter
of fact way I had got into this car-
riage with a strange lady. Now in a
sober and matter of fact way It ap-
peared to me my duty to find out the
reason for this singular situation.

panion, "in what manner can 1 be of

She looked down at the little mask
which hung from the silken cord, and
flung it from her.
"Oh, then, very well!” she said. “If
you know who I am, who are you,
and why do you talk in this absurd
way with me, a stranger?"
“And, why, madam, do you take raa
up, a stranger. In this absurd way, at
midnight, on the streets of Washing-
ton?—1, who am engaged on business
for my chief?"
She tapped again with her foot on
the carriage floor. ‘‘Tall me who you
are!” she said.

land yonder; sometime would-be law-

we have eyes to see we may read In
that portion of hla work which be-

way of saying that the work of the
Christian Is to do God’s work, and
that each worker as an individual la
known to God and has a particular
place In God's plan. Doesn't this Blve

It must partake of the priceless value,
the high quality of God himself, for

3. Constantine when marking out
the bounds of Constantinople, being
told that the city would never fill out
ao vast an area, replied: ”1 am fol-
lowing him who la leading me." We
may not here pause to discuss th*
Christianity of the great emperor,
save only to aay that he waa astut*
and sagacious enough to adopt It aa
a plank In his political platform. But
the point before us Is submission to
God'B leading. Again and again does
the call of the master bid ua follow
him. Only God-led Uvea tell moat for
humanity. Too often with ua It la not
a question of knowing, so much aa
one of doing, the Lord’s will. With
many of us the trouble is that w*
have not felt the cost of following
Jesus enough to give ua the highest
appreciation of him.
“I wish to
say that I
have used
Sloan’s Lint-
men t on a
lame leg that
has given me much trouble for six
months. It was so bad that I
couldn’t walk sometimes for a
week. 1 tried doctors’ medicine
and had a rubber bandage for my
leg, and bought evety thing that I
heard of, but they afi did me no
good, until at last I waa persuaded
to tiy Sloan’s Liniment. The first
application helped it, and in two
weeks my leg waa well.”—A. L.
Hunter, of Hunter, Ala.

LINIMENT
with greet aocceae in cases of ex-
treme fatigue after physical exer-
