He had Just arrived, the guest of their brother Hnrley. It had been over six years since they had been playmates, great changes hnd transpired since then, but the worldly wise wedded sis tors speuulatlvely viewed the young junn whom they believed only one In ilueiice would ever bring to Wnlden, nnd that wns N.tldn. She had been his bright star of hope In boyhood days; he had managed to meet her nt least once or twice during n year. "A SllPlllflnir fnnilnnsa 1 mii mif vl.l if tn- r- - ' . . .

And now ho had shown up. not ono particle clmnged. nnd as calculating, shrewd wltted Mrs. May Tolson turned over this young man In her mind ns a possible desirable party for Nnlda, her admiration of nny fine points Warren might hnve faded away. "He won't do," she told herself. "lie is just the same big overgrown coun try boy, awkward, self conscious, clum sy. Why, he lets the little ones play with him as If he was some grent good nnturcd dog." From another window Nalda peered also, but tho sweet serenity of her face wns nlmost nngelic ns she read in this great accommodating guest an innate love ftr children, nnd saw him enter heart nnd soul Into their Inno cent pleasures. She hnd not seen him for a year. Yes, he wns the same. Some of the crude lines of fnce nnd form hnd toned down, but there wns not a trace of artifice, not the remot est nttempt to act other than whnt ho was. The little ones piled upon him as a good nntured big brother. He amazed and delighted them with the various marvelous little parcels of sweetmeats ho produced from strange hidden pockets, nnd when Mrs. Tolson nnd Mrs. Mnrcy sailed down Into tho garden In all their royal nrray of dig nity nnd purpose In view, he brushed back his hair ns would some embar rassed school boy and sat uneasily on the chair between them, feeling some how that ho wns In the presence of unfriendly censors, yet know not why. Nalda stole a last distant glnnco nt him. She fancied she liked a certain forced repose nnd gunrdedness thnt came Into his face ns he confronted her officious sisters. "We learn great news, Mr. Boyd," spoke Mrs. Tolson sweetly. "Your uncle has mnde permanent provision for your cousin nnd yourself, wo un di..tnnd?" "The grand old trump 1" cried Wnr ren. "He's enred for us orphans, he's educnled us nnd now he's started us out in life a man to love, truly." "Has ho has he quite settled his business. affairs?" delicately Mrs. Mnr cy Intimated. "Oh, quite," answered Wnrren blunt ly. "You. see, there's the town proper ty nnd the bnnk. That was the bulk, no wanted to divide It between Arthur and I. 'No sir!' I said 'Arthur is a cripple, an Invnlld. Ho needs a suro income. Give him the sure end of tho estate so he'll hnve no worry.' Dear, bravo Arthur I gentle as n girl, patient nmlrt all his grent sufferings." "Why why ," overflowed tho ns touunded nnd Indignant Mrs. Tolson, "whnt wns left for you?" "The old brick works down the riv er. You see, that was n losing Invest ment for Uncle Cnrr, who never un derstood tho business, nnd neglected It. I went down there last week and looked it over. I saw nil those nent little cottages gono to neglect nnd ruin. I saw the workmen half employed, half paid, half hearted. 'Oh, Uncle 1' I snld, 'give me those men, these women, these children. Give mo Mud Creek, sunk In tho slovenliness of indiffer ence, give me this business to raise to something worth while, these souls to plnco upon the higher ground of n now existence.' Thank God! ho did It, nnd I hnve found my llfo work." Nnlda Elston had come down Into the garden. Twenty feet away, sho Btood fairly entranced by the sudden Inspiration thnt hnd flnshed from tho soul of a mnn who to all hnd been a mere lump of common clay, ner soul took firo ln turn. Ills fnce was irradl ated, ho wns at once transformed. "The blind, perverted Idiot I" mut tered Mrs. Tolson, under her brcnth. "When ho could have grabbed ease, luxury, wealth I" echoed Mrs. Mnrcy. "Oh, Indeed; this plodder, this being who whittled nwny his ehnnccs would not do for Nnlda nt all 1" "I hoard you It Is splendid!" cried Nnlda, with beaming, overflowing eyes, on hour later. "Yes, yes, denr War ren, say it again," she plcnded, and she clung to his outstretched hnnds. "You are to go among those poor, for gotten people, n llttlo brother of the poor.
