1 ! I DORA WINS By MOLLIE MATHER (©, IMS, Walin Nl»o»««r Cnlun.l BRENT SCHOFIELD turned wearily from bls mothers complaining I It has been tald that an invalid may i rule, as a deepot. through every weak [ nos. And all his life that pitiful I weakness of ala proud mother’* had more or less swayed the young man a actions. When Brent had enthusiastically decided upon law as a profession, ids mother balked the idea because. she said appealingly, It would take him from her. So, covering his disappointment, the non who was now her only protector, settled down resignedly to manage the southern es tate that was almost past hope of management. And that Brent had made good was due to his courage and persistency. And because the Invalid wished him to remain and be content in that locality, she brought skillfully before his notice one or two young women poueMing the necessary quality of descent in.kin, from those witli whom, in the old days, Mrs. Schofield herself had mingled. Lucy Sprague end Mllllcent Deveraux, however, failed to arouse in the heart of Mrs, Schofield's son interest or affection. It was during a business trip to New York that ha met Dora. Theodora, the pleasant woman of the boarding house where Dora lodged called her. "Teddy” was the name Brent heard the girls of thev office bestow upon the graeioua young person who. from the moment She came Solicitously lo leurn his errand, won the young man's attention. "Mr. Ware.” ehe said, "would like to Know if your business with him is urgent. At present be Is engaged with the manager of the company.” "I can,” Brent explained, “leave a message concerning it with you anil mil again later." Which IS what be proceeded to do. It was not strange that before Brent's business trip ia the far away city was accomplished he had followed up Hie advantage of an introduction through Dora's employer and had become. apparently, Dora's friend. In Brent's heart be acknowledged him self her lover, Mrs. Simpson of the boarding house was good-naturedly agreeable to Brent as an escort. "Miss Tlieadora has been lonely enough after business hours, I’m tare," she told him. “It was the old eohntry ISWyer who was a friend of tier father who got Theodora her Job In the city after Mr. Meredith died. And Te<-a urh he knew of me here he put Miss Tlieadora in my care." i When Brent went back to the Im-' pressive nld homo In the South be was engaged to marry Theadora Meredith. And so enthralled was he with the young woman’s Mncerlty of character and the manifold sweetness of her ways that no thought of his mother's possible objection came to him. "It is I who am not worthy of Dura, mother." he said quietly. "We hare promised to marry etch other. Dora i herself would have to break that promise before I would give her up." He was glad, as the sulky determination which his mother entered upon continued, to take upon himself another business trip to a near city. During her son'a absence Mrs. Schofield made the great effort of her invalid ' life. She atartsn upon a trip to New ! York unaccompanied. For this visit she intended to make must l>« kept secret. Brent, her beloved, would never forgive her If he knew Its pur IHise. Mrs. Schofield was going to make an appeal, though her weakness. to the girl's unselfishness "We shall be able to visit better up In my room,” Dora Invited her guest, with her own disarming smile. And when Brent's mother wee installed la the best chair, and Dora sat opposite tn the crippled chair. Mra. Schaffeld began her onslaught. Then an ley hand seemed to clnteh her heart, withholding forcibly and painfully the cruel words. Fighting for breath, site looked tip Into a face of tender concern—Dora's arms were about her; liorn half led. half carried the sufferer to her own amall bed in the corner, That was a long and serious Attack eaysed, the nnseelng doctor declared, by over-exhaustion. Dora nursed Brent's mother as the would have nursed her awn dear one. had she been spared. It was a differ- , ent cure from that hirelings had He stowed. And so to Brent ch mo thia brief but Joyously Illuminating meh - eage: "Mr Jtear Boy; Will you come s»an ti'it you they fetch Dark and mo bark hwme together?
