The sun was Just setting and the birds In the trees that lined the nar row road were heralding the hour of rest when a solitary traveller came along, headed resolutely toward the east. His dark, handsome face, though hopeful and determined, showed un mistakable signs of great fatigue and his shoes covered with dust, told that his Journey had been a long one. He wore no overcoat, possibly fearing It would retard his progress, for he scorned bent on making the fastest time practicable and the veins In his forehead stood out like purple cords from the violence of his pace. At the top of a long hill he turned and looked behind him. Far far to the westward he could distinguish the spires and roofs of the city and the sun sinking behind the dome of the uni versity hall reminded him of Culver's red lantern after a football victory. Rut nature's beauties had little charms for him," and, buttoning hls'c&af "around his chin, he plunged onward Into the gathering twilight. The number of miles traversed began to toll on him and his over hurried stride had changed to a slower gait as he cut through the graveyard to gain ground. The road was now overgrown with weeds and brush from disuse. The' whole score seemed pen-ad ed by a chilling dreariness that made the grave yard behind him almost lively in com parison. All about him lay the dull, .bare, cheerless wilderness. The croak ing of the frogs In the gutter seemed only to accentuate tho stillness. Darker and darker, and wilder and wilder became the scene, until at length he came upon a mansion almost hidden In the wood, Its turrets and battle ments overlooking the road. The foot sore wanderer throw himself against the outer gate for very weariness and called feebly for entrance. His frock coat how incongruous In such a wil dernesshung loosely on his drooping shoulders. His natent leather shoes were caked with mud and dust, his well creased trousers were torn by brambles and barbed wire fences and his stock ings were full of sand burrs. With a supreme effort he lifted his head and looked up to the second story of the house It was dark. His face blanched and ho uttered a half suppressed groan, but he still twittered on the gate for en trance as 1f wishing to learn his fate at all hazards. Slowly the portcullis was raised and the drawbridge low ered. With dllllculty he stnggered up tho steps of tho chateau and gave the door bell a few spasmodic punches. A maid appeared in a white cap and npron and spoke a few hurried words. The form of tho wanderer quivered and either from fatigue or disappointment ho grasped a pillar for support, while a muttered curse escaped from his palo lips the Dobutanto was not at home. , coffee urn and are iinv prepared t" dispense a delicious cup m miy time of night or day.
