to which Mrs. nitigmnn refers Is well
known to her friends. When n child
of three years, accompanying her fa

trip, the vessel was wrecked, hut she
was almost miraculously saved, tho
small hox Into which she was put be

best of health until three years ago
when she began to suffer from n had
form of stomach trouble and later
from rheumatism. How she was com
pletely restored to health Is bust told
in her own words :
"Nobody knows bow I suffered for
the past three years. No matter bow

Iilrntn sat dozing In a comer of the
tar-room of the Engle hotel that dny.
Ho had been ashamed to go to bis
comfortable room over the garage.
He did not feel entitled to the bos
pltnllty of Mr. Singleton. Somehow,
he couldn't bear the thought of going
there. Hl.t new clothes and silk hat
were In n state which excited the
derision of small boys nnd audible
comment from nil observers while he
had been mnklng bis way down the
street. His money was ubout gone.
The bnrkeeper had refused to sell
him nny mure drink. In the early
dusk ho went out of doors. It was
almost as warm as midsummer and
the ky was clear. Ho called at the
door of the Widow Moran for his
dog. In a moment Christmas came
down from the Shepherd's room nnd
greeted bis master with fond affec
tion. The two went nwny together.
They walked up n deserted street
nnd around to the old graveyard.
When It was quite dark, they groped
their wuy through the weedy, brlered
aisles, between moss-covered toppling
stones, to their old nook under the
ash tree. There Hiram made n bed
of boughs, picked from the evergreens
that grew In the graveyard, nnd lay
down upon it under ids overcoat with
the dog Christmas. Ho found it Im
possible to sleep, however. When ho
closed his eyes u new thought begun
nudging him.
It seemed to be saying, "What are
you going to do now, Mr. Illraui
Iilenklnsop?"
lie was pleased that it seemed to
say Mr. Ilirain Iilenklnsop. He lay
for a long time looking up at the
starry moonlit sky, and at the marble,
weather-spotted angel on tho monu
ment of the Iteverend Thaddeus
Snecd, who bad been lying there,
among the rude forefathers of the
Tillage, since 1800. Suddenly tho
angel began to move. Mr. Iilenklnsop
observed with alarm that it had dis
covered 1dm nnd tliut its right fore
linger was no longer directed toward
Uio sky but was pointing at his face.
The angel had assumed the look and
voice of bis Old Self and was saying:
"I don't see why angels are always
cut In tnnrble an' sef up In grave
yards with nothing to'do but point at
the sky. It's a cold an' lonesome busi
ness. Why don't you give me a Job?"
His Old Self vanished and, as it
did so, the spotted angel fell to
coughing and sneezing. It coughed
nnd sneezed so loudly that the sound
went echoing In the distant sky nnd
o violently that it reeled und seemed
to be In danger of falling. Mr. Iilenk
lnsop awoke with a rude Jump so that
tho dog Christmas barked In alarm.
It was nothing but the midnight train
from the south pulling out of the
station, which was near the old grave
yurd. The spotted angel stood firmly
In place and was pointing at the sky
as usual.
It was probably an hour or so later,
when Mr Iilenklnsop was nwakened
by the barking of the dog Christmas.
He quieted the dog und listened. He
Hiram Sat Dozing In a Corner of the
Bar-Room of the Eagle Hotel That
Day,
heard a sound like that of a baby cry
ing. It nwoko tender memories in tho
wind of Hiram Iilenklnsop. One very
nweet recollection was about all that
tho barren, bitter years of his young
manhood bad given htm worth hav
ing. It was tho recollection of a
littlo child which had come to his
homo in the first year of his married
ilfe.
"Sho lived eighteen month and

three dnys and four hours," lie used
to say, In speaking of her, with u
tender note In his voice.
Almost twenty years she had been
lying In tbi old graveyard near the
ash tree. Since then tho voice of n
child crying always halted ids steps.
It is probable that, in her short life,
the neglected, pathetic child Pearl
that having been her mime liad pro
tested much against n plentiful luck
of comfort and sympathy.
So Mr. Blenklnsop's agitation at
tho sound of n baby crying some
where near him, in the darkness of
the old graveyard, was quite natural
and will be readily understood. He
rose on bis elbow and listened. Agnhi
he heard the small, appealing voice.
"Uy thunder I Christiana," ho whis
pered. "If that ain't like Pearl when
she was n little, teeny, weeny thing
no blgger'n a pint o' beer I Say, it
Is, slr sure as sin J"
He scrambled to bis feet, suddenly,
fur now, also, he could bear the
voice of u woman crying. He groped
his wny In the direction from which
the sound came and soon discovered
tho woman. She wns kneeling on a
grave with a child In her anus. Her
grief touched tho henrt of the man.
"Who be you?" lie asked.
"I'm cold, and my baby is Blck,
and I have no friends," sho sobbed.
"Yes, ye have I" snld Hiram Iilen
klnsop. "I don't care who ye be.
I'm yer friend and don't ye forglt It."
There was a reassuring noto in the
voice of Hiram Ulenktnsop. Its gentle
ness hail In It n quiver of sympathy.
She felt It nnd gave to him an un
known, invisible man, with Just a
quiver of sympathy in his voice
her confidence.
If ever one was In need of sympa
thy, she was at that moment. She
felt that she must speak out to some
one. So keenly sho felt tho impulse
that site had been speaking to the
stars and the cold gravestones. Here
at last was) a human being with a
quiver of sympathy in his voice.
"I thought I would come home,
but when I got hero I was afraid,"
the girl moaned. "I wish I could die."
"No, ye don't, cither l" said Hiram
Blenklnsop, "Sometimes, I've thought
that I iiadn't no friends an' wanted
to die, but I was Just foolln' my
self. To be sure, I ain't bad no baby
on my hands but I've had somethin'
Just as worrisome, I guess. Folks like
you an' me hns got friends a-plenty
If we'll only give 'em a chance. I've
found that out. You let mo take that
baby an' come with me. I know
where you'll git the glad hand. You
Just come right along with me."
The unmlstnkable noto of sincerity
wns In the voice of Hiram Iilenklnsop.
She gaVe the baby Into his arms. He
held it to ids breast a moment, think
ing of old times. Then he swung
his arms like a oradle saying:
"You stop ' your hollerln' ye gol'
darn little skoozuckst It ain't de
cent to go on that way in a graveyard
an' ye ought to know It. lie ye tryln'
to wake up the dead?"
The baby grew quiet and finally
fell asleep.
"Come on, now," said Hiram, with
the baby lying ngalnst his breast.
"You an' me nro goln' out o' the past.
I know a little house that's next door
to heaven. They say ye can see
heaven from Its winders. It's where
tho good Shepherd lives. Christmas
an' I know Hie place don't we, ol
boy7 Come rlrfht along. There ain't
no kind o' doubt o' what they'll say
to us."
Tliu young woman followed him out
of the old graveyard and through tho
dark, deserted .streets until they came
to the cottage of tho Widow Moran.
They passed through the gate Into
Judge Crookor's garden. Under the
Shepherd's window, Hiram Iilenkln
sop gave' the baby to Its mother and
with his hands to his mouth called
"Hob!" In a loud whisper. Suddenly
a robin sounded his alarm. Instantly,
the Shepherd's room was full of llghli
In a moment, be was at tho window
sweeping the garden paths and the
tree tops with his searchlight. It
fell on the sorrowful figure of the
joung mother with tho child In her
arms and stopped. She stood looking
up lit the window bathed In the Hood
of light. It reminded the Shepherd
of that glow which the wise men saw
In the manger at Ilethlehem.
"Paulino linker!" ho exclaimed.
"Have you come back or am I dream
ing? It's you thanks to the lllessed
Virgin I It's you I Come around to
tho door. My mother will let you
In."
It wus a warm wclcomo that tho
girl received In the little home of the
Widow Moran. Many words of com
fort and good cheer were spoken in
the next hour or so, nfter which the
good woman mado tea and toast und
broiled a chop und served them in
the Shepherd's room.
"God lovo ye, child l So he wns n
married man bad ccss to him an'
the likes o' him!" sho said as sho
enmo in with tho tray. "Mother o'
I Jesus I What a wicked world it is!"
The prndeat flog Clirlstmnn, belli;
afraid of babies, hid under the Shep
herd's bed, and Hiram Iilenklnsop
lay down for the rent of the night oc
the lounge in the cottage kitchen.
An hour ufter daylight, when tin
Judge was walking In his gurden, In
wondered why the widow nnd the
Shepherd were sleeping so late.
CHAPTER SEVEN.
In Which High Voltage Develops In
the Conversation.
It wns u wurin, bright May dny,
There was not u cloud In tho sky.
Itoger Delano lind arrived nnd the
Rings were giving a dinner that even
ing. The best people of Ilazclmcnd
were coming over in motorcars.
Phyllis and Itoger had n long ride
together that day on the new Ken
tucky saddle horses. Mrs. Illng had
spent the morning In Hazelmcnd and
had stayed to lunch with Mayor nnd
Airs. Stacy. She lind returned nt
four add cut some flowers for the
table and gone to her room for nn
hour's rest when the young people
returned. Sho wns not yet asleep
when Phyllis came Into the big bed
room. Mrs", lilng lay among the cush
ions on her couch. She partly rose,
tumbled the cushions into a pllo and
leaned ngnlnst them.
"Heavens 1 I'm tired!" she ex
claimed. "These women in Hnzel
mead bnng onto one like n lot of
hungry cuts. They ull want money
"Marrledl To Whom Art You Mar
rled?"
for ono thing or another Red Cross
or Liberty bonds or fatherless chil
dren or tobacco for tho soldiers or
books for the library. My word I I'm
broke and It seems as If each of my
legs hung by a thread."
Phyllis smiled ns she stood look
ing down nt her mother.
"How beautiful you look!" the fond
mother exclaimed. "If he didn't pro
pose to-dny, he's a chump."
"But lie did," snld Phyllis. "I tried
to koep him from it, but he Just would
propose In spite of me."
The girl's face wns red and serious.
She sat down In a chair and began
to remove her lint. Mrs. Illng rose
suddenly, nnd stood facing Phyllis.
"I thought you loved him," she said
with u look of surprise.
"So I do," the girl nnswered.
"What did you say?"
"I said no."
'Vhnt 1"
"I refused him!"
"For Cod's sake, Phyllis! Do you
think you can affirrd to play with n
man like that? He won't stand for
it."
"Let him sit for it then nnd, mother,
you might us well know, first ns lust,
that I am not playing with him."
There was a calm note of firmness
In the voice of the girl. She was pre
pared for this scene. She bnd known
It was coming. Her mother was hot
with irritating nstonlsbment. The
calmness of the girl In suddenly be
ginning to dig a grave for this dear
ambition rich with promise In the
very day when It had come submis
sively to their feet, stung like the
tooth of n serpent. She stood very
erect and said with an ley look In
her face :
"You young upstart I What do you
mean?"
There wns a moment of frigid
silence In which both of the women
began to turn cold. Then Phyllis an
swered very calmly as she sat look
ing down at the bunch of violets In
her hnnd:
"It means that I am mnrrlod,
mother."
Mrs. Ring's face turned red. There
wns n little convulslvo movement ot
the muscles around her mouth. She
folded her arms on her breast, lifted
her chin n bit higher nnd asked In
n polite tone, although her words fell
like fragments of cracked Ice:
"Married! To whom are you mar
ried?" "To Gordon King."
Phyllis spoke casually ns If he were
a piece of ribbon that she had bought
at a store.
Mrs. Illng snnk Into a chair and
covered her face with her hands for
half a moment. Suddenly she picked
lip a slipper that lay nt her feet and
flung it nt the girl.

-Who Is My NclKhbor7
I. Christ Questioned (LukelOsSn-l!'.)).
I. Hy whom (v. 25). A certain Inw
yer. He was not n lawyer In the mod
ern sense of that term; most nearly
corresponds to our theological profes
sors. II. The purpose of (v. 25). It wns to
tempt Jesus as to whether He was
really learned in the law ; and also to
entrap Him to show 111m to be hetero
dox. 3. Tho question (v. 25). "What shall
I do to inherit eternal life?" Though
a lawyer, his theology was defective,
lie thought eternal life was to be ob
tained by doing. The very words he
used Involve a contradiction. An In
heritance. Is not obtained by doing, but
by being.
4. Jesus' reply (vv. 20-29). Hu cited
him to the law. This Is the proper
pluce to send one who Is expecting to
get eternal life by doing. The lawyer
answered well, for supremo love to
Clod ami love to one's neighbor us he
loves himself is the sum total of hu
man obligation. "This do and thou
shalt live." Hut this Is the very tiling
he could tiot do. Man needs God's en
abling grace to love at all; so he stood
condemned by his own conscience en
lightened by the law. He set out to
trap Jesus, und now lie is caught In a
trup, and in order to Justify himself
he snld to Jesus, "Who is my neigh
bor?" The question is answered In the
story of the Good Sumarltun.
II. Playing the Neighbor (vv. 30-37).
In this story of the Good Samaritan
tiie question Is shifted so us to make
clear that the supreme question is not,
"Who is my neighbor?" but "Whose
neighbor am I?"
To be a neighbor Is
1. To see those about us who need
help (v. 33). We should be on the
lookout for those In need of help; aud
love Is keen to discern need.
2. Hnve compassion on the needy (v.
83). Since Christ Is the compns.slonate
One, all who have Ills nature will bo
likewise moved when they sec need.
3. Go to those in need (v. 34). The
personal touch many times is more Im
portant than material uld. It is easier
to give money than personal aid. The
true neighbor gives both.
4. Hind up wounds (v. 34).
5. Set the helpless ones on our bensts
while we walk (v. 34). Willingness to
deny ourselves in order to help others
is a proof of the genuineness of love.
0. Bring to tho Inn und take care of
the unfortunate (v. 34). The true
neighbor is not spasmodic in ids giving
help.
7. Give money (v. 35). It costs much
to be a neighbor. Love Is the most ex
pensive thing In the world. It cost
God His only Son ; it cost Jesus Christ
ills life. May we go und do likewise!
III. The Behavior of the Early
Church (Acts 2:44-47).
1. They were together (v. 44). They
were together because they were bap
tized Into the one body of which Christ
was head by the Holy Spirit (I Cor.
12:13). The onesness of the body
was .symbolized by the breaking of
bread. Such unity Is only possible
to believers In Christ, that Is, tboso
regenerated by the Holy Ghost. To
get unity, therefore, In the neighbor
hood we must gut people to bo saved.
2. Had n community of goods (vv.
44, 45). They sold their possessions
and goods ami parted them to all
men ns every map hud need. This
proved that they were under tho pow
er of tho Holy Spirit, that Is, that
the supernatural was being manifest;
for It Is not natural to abandon one's
title of possession.
3. They wore lllled with gladness
nnd singleness of heart (v. 40). Thoso
who were really born again lmvo no
ulterior motive. What they seem to
he, they really are. Unsaved men
and women uro controlled by selllsh
motives; they seek their own, not an
other's good. This they do while feign
ing love tor others.
4. Praising God nnd linvlng favor
with all the people (v. 47). Such un
selfishness gained tho attention of the
people ami induced them to yield
themselves to God, who added dully
such us were being saved.
Deal Not Treacherously.
Tho Lord, tho God of Israel, salth
that He hatcth putting away; for ono
covereth violence with ids garment,
salth tho Lord of hosts ; therefore tako
heed to your spirit, that yo deal not
treucherously. Malnchl 2 :10.
Let the Power of My Lord Be Great
And, I beseech thee, let tho power
of my Lord bo great, nccordlng as
thou bust spoken, saying, tho Lord
is longsufferlng, nnd of great mercy,
forgiving Iniquity and transgression.
