Always had women. e.-pecially, been attracted hy sornthinir In h!a sick-room manner. It wan not tho indulgent .suavity of tho fashionable healer, but a manner of pois of pureness. of ability to ovcrroni'j fate, of deference and protection and devotion. There was an exploring rnagnetl'rm In his steadfast, luminous brown eyes; a latent authority in tho Impassive, even priestly tranquillity of hl.s smooth counter.aco that outwardly flttel him for tho part of confidant and consoler. Sometimes, at his first professional vL.it, women would tell him where they hid their diamonds at r.lght from the burglars. Vlth the ei?w of much practico, roctor James' unroving eyes estlmatd th order and quality of the room'? furnishings. The Firne plane had F'vurcd cognizance of the lady's appearanco. 8he was small and scarcely jast 20. Ilcr face posfsed tho tith" to a winsome prettinesa. now obsrurt-tl by (you would say) rathr a lixed melancholy than tho more violent imprint of a sudden sorrow. 1'pon her forehead, above one ey. br..v. was a livid bruise, suffered, the phyrfcian's eye told him, within the past six hours. Doctor James fingers went to the man'p wrist. His almost vocal eyes i'iestioned th lady. "I am Mrs, Chandler." sho responded, Fpeaking with the plaintive southern if.ur ami Intonation. "My husbmd was taken suddenly ill about l'i minutes before 3011 came. He has had attaches of heart trouble before some of them were very b.a.l." His clothed state and the late hour seemed to prompt her to fur ther explanation. ''Ho had been out late; to i supper, I believe." Doctor Jamed now turned hin attention to his patient. In whichever id" his "professions' he happened to he encrawrod ho was wont to honor tho "cas.V or tho "Job" with his whole interest. Tho sick man appeared to be about .10. His countenance bore a look of boldness and dissipation, but was not without a symmetry of feature and tho lino lined drawn by a taste and indulirenc In humor thit j?avo the redeeming touch. There was an odor of spilled wino. about bis clothes. Tin physician laid back his outer garments, and then, with a penknife, slit th" shirt-front from co'.lar to walct. Tho obstacles cleared, lie laid Iiis ear to the iieirt and listened in-t.-ntly. "Mitral rerrurgitation?" he paid softly, xrhen h ros. The words ended with tho rising inflection of uncertainty. Again ho listened long; and this time h said, "Mitral insufficiency." with tho accent of an assured diagnosis. "Madam," ho began, in the reasfoirlng tones that had fo often nlnved anxiety, "there 13 a probabllit " As ho Hlowly turnel hjs lo ad to face the lady, ho Paw her fall. u hit and swooning, Into the arms of tho o'.d negress.

Tlie patient's ey ?fme-! beckon to him. Th doctor ptoop" 1 to catf h the same faint words. "Th money the twenty thousand doll in-." '"Where in is this money in the bank?" The eyes expres.d a negative. "Te',1 her" the whisper was growing fajntrr "the twenty thousand dollars her money" his eyes wandered about the room. "You have placed this money somewhere?" Doctor .Tarn-s' vedee wai tolling l!'e a siren's to conj'.jre the secret from the ir.nn' f.iiün.cr ir teMI-rirr. "Is it in this room?" He thuuprht he saw a f!uttrinc: assent in the dimming 'fs. Tlie pu'se u;'der Iii- lingers '. ; V as f.n nn'l ft mal as a thr. There arooe in I)oc!or Jam oh' brain and heirt th instinoy. or nis other profession. Promptly, hs he a tel in r vt rythinir, he de !d- l to l"arn tho when-abouts of this money, and at th- calculated and certain cost of a human life. Drawing frgm his pocket a littlo pad of prescription blanks, he scribbled upon one of th m a formula suited, according to th best practice, to the needs of the sufferer. Going to the door of the inner room, he softly called the old woman, gave her the prescription, and bado her take it to some drug store and fetch the medicine. When she had gone, muttering to herself, tho doctor stepped to the bedido of the lady. She still slept soundly; her pulse was a little stronger; her forehead was cool, save where tho inflammation of the bruise extended, and a slight moisture covered it. Unless disturbed, Fhe would yet sleep for hours. He found the key In tho door, and locked It after hm when he returned. Doctor James looked at his watch. He could call half an hour his own fince before that time th" old woman - - -. . j Si 1 ?s to LP yovJ'MP could scarcely return from her mission. Then he sought and found water In a pitcher and a glass tumbler. Opening his medicine case he took out the vitl containing the nitroglycerine "tho oil." as hl.s brethren of tho braee-and-bit term it. One drop of the faint yellow, thlckish liquid he let fail in the tumbler. II took out his silver hypodemic syringe case, arid screwed the needle Into Itts place. Carefully measuring each modicum of water In the graduated glass Parrel of the syrinsre, ho diluted tho ono drop with nearly half a tumbler of water. Two hours earlier that night Doctor James had, with that syringe, Injected the undiluted liquid into a hole drilled lntho lock of a safe, and had destroyed, with one dull explosion, tho machinery that controlled the movement of the bolts. He now purposed, with the same means. to shiver the prime machinery of a human being to r nd its heart and each shod; was for the sake of the money to follow. The Mino means, but In a different guise. Whereas, that was the giant In Its rude. primary dynamic strength, this wns the courtier, whose no less dea lly arms were concealed by velvet and lace. For the liquid In the tumbb'r and in the syringe that the physician carefully filled was now a solution of glonoir. the most powerful heart stimulant known to medical science. Two ounce had riven the solid door of the Iron safe; with one Ilftieth part of a minim he was r.o" about to stll for. ver the intricate mchanism of a human life. Dut not Immediately. It was not so intended. First there would be a quick increase of Vitality; a powerful impetus given to every organ and faculty. The heart would respond bravely to the fatal spur: the blood in the vehis return more, rapidly to its soma" e. But. as Doctor James well knew, over-stimulation in thin form of heart dise.is- means death, as sure as by a rif!" shot. When the clogg"d arteri' s should suffer concestion frcm the increased flow of blood pumped into them by the power of the burglar's "oil." they would rapidly become "no thoroughfare." and the fountain of lifo would cease to flow. The physician bared th chest of the unconscious Chandler. Easily and skilfully he Injected, subcutaneously. the contents of the syringe into the muscles of the region over the heart. True to his mat habits of both prof.-sLslons, he next carefully dried his nceule and reinserted the wire that threaded it when net in u e. In three minutes Chandler opened his eye5, and spoke, in a volco faint but audible, inquiring who attended upon him. Dv.-ctor James again explained his presence there. "When? is my wife?" asked the patient. "Sh is asleep from exhaustion anfi worry," said the doctor. "I would not awaken her, unless " "It Isn't necessary." Chandler spoke with space between his words caused by hi ?h'""rt breath that pome demon w driving too fast. "She wouldn't thank you to disturb her on my (account." Doctor Jamfs drew a chair to the bedaiie. Conversation must not be squandered. "A ftw minutes ago." he began in the grave, candid tones of his other prtftion, "you were trying ty tell me something recardinc some money. I do not seek your confidence but it is my duty to advise you that anxiety ar.d worry will work aitilnst your ii'O'Vt ry. If you have any communication to make about th to relieve your mirul about this twenty thousand dollars. I think was the amount you mentioned you would better do so."

Chandler could not turn hin head, but he rolled his. eyes in the direction of the speaker. "Did I ay where thlfl money la?" "No,' answered the physician. "I only Inferred, from your scarcely Intdl!glMe words, that you felt a soliitude concerning its safety. If It Is In this room " Doctor .Tames paused. Did he only seem to perceive a flicker of understinding. a gleam of suspiclin upon the Ironical features of hla patient? Had he seemed too eager? Had he slid too much? Chandler's next wc rds resored his confidence. "Where should It be." he gasped, "but in the safe there'" With hl.s eyes he Indicated a corner of the room, where now, for tho first time. th doctor perceived a small Iron safe, half-concealed by the trailing end of a window curtain. Rising, he took the sick man's wrlt. His puLse was beating in great throws, with ominous Intervals betwee n. "Uft your arm," said Doctor Jamefl. "You know I can't move, Doctor." Tho physician stepped wlftly to the hall door, opened It. and listened. All was still. Without further circumvention ho went to the safe, and examined It. Of a primitive make and simple design. It afforded little more security than protection against light-fingered servants. To his kill It was a mere toy, a thing of strw and pasteboard. The money was a.s

good aa in his hands. With hla clamps he could draw the knob, punch tho tumblers and open the door In two minutes. Perhaps. In another way, he might open it In one. Kneeling upon the floor, no laid his ear to the combination plate, and slowly turned the knob. Ab he had surmised. It was locked at only a "day com ' upon ono number. His keen ear caught the faint warning click a the tumbler was disturbed; he used the clue the handle turned. He swung the door wide open. The interior of the safe was bare not even a scrap of paper rested within the hollow iron cube. Dr. James rose to his feet and walked back to tho bed. A thick dew had formed upon the djdng man's brow, but there was a mocking, grim smile on hia lips and In his eyes. "I never saw it before," he wild, painfully, "medicine and burglary wedded! Do you make the combination pay dear Doctor?" Than that .situation afforded, there was never a more rigorous test of Doctor James ftreatnes. Trapped by the diabolic humor of his victim Into a position both ridiculous and unsafe, ho maintained his dignity aa well as his presence of mind. Taking out his watch, he waited for the man to die. "You were just a shade iod anxious about that money. But I never was In any danger from you, dear Doctor. It's safe. Perfectly safe. It's all in the hands of th bookmakers. Twenty thousand Amy's money. I played it at tho race? lost every cent of it. I've been a pretty bad boy, Burglar excufo me Doctor, but I've been a square srort. I don't think I ever met such an-l S -carat rascal a you are, Doctor excuse me I3urglar. In all my rounds. Is it contrary to the"eth?cj of your gang, Burglar, to give a victim excuse me patkmt, a drink of water?" Doctor James brought him a drink. Ho could scarcely swallow It. The reaction from the powerful drug waa coming in regular, intensifying wave. But his moribund fancy must mave one more grating fling. "Gambler drunkard spendythrift I've been those, but n doo-tor-burglar!" Tho physician Indulge ! himself to but ono reply to tho other's caustSc taunts. Bending low to catch Chandler's fast crystallizing gaze, he pointed to the sleeping lady's door with gesture so stern and significant that tho prostrate man half-lifted hte head, with his remaining strength ti see. He saw nothing; but he caughtt the cold words of tho doctor thx last sounds he wa-s to hear: "I never yet struck a woman." It were vain to attempt to con stich men. There Is no curriculum th;t can reckon with them in its ken. They are offshoots from the typon whereof men say, "He will do thte," or "Ho willX'j that." We only know that they exist; and that we can oaV s.-rve them and to tell one another f their bare performances, as children watch and speak of the marionettela. Yet it were a droll study In egoism to consider these two one an assassin and a robber, standing above his victim; the other baeer in his offenses, if a lesser lawbreaker, lying, abhorred, in the house of the wife he had persecuted, trpoiled and smitterr. one a tiger, the other a dog-wolf to consider each of 'them sickening at the foulness of the other; and each flourishing out of the mire of his manifest guilt his own Immaculate standard of conduct, if not of honor. The ono retort of Doctor James must have struck, home to the other

remaining Phreds of shame and man hooKl, for it proved the coup de grace. A deep blush suffused his fac3 an lgnomlnous rcsa mortis; the respiration ceased, and, with scarcely a tremor, Chandler expired. Close following upon his last breath came the negress, bringing the medicine. With a hand gently preesing upon the closed eyelids. Doctor Jamw told her of the end. Not grief, but a hereditary rapprochment with death In the abstract, moved her to a dismal, watery snuffling, accompanied by her usual Jeremiad. "Dar nowl Ifa In de Lawd's hands. He am de Jedge of de transgressor, and do auppo't of dem In distress. He gwlne hab suppo't us now. Cindy done paid- out do last quarter fer dl bottle of physic, and It riAbber come to no ue." "Do I understand," asked Doctor James, "that Mrs. Chandler has no money?" "Money, suh? You know what make Miss Amy fall down and so weak? Stahvation, suh. Nothln to eat in ria houso but some crumbly crackers In three days. Dat angel sell her finger fings and watch mont'e ago. Dls fine nous run, wld de red cyarpets and shiny bureaus, lt'a all hired; and de man talkln ecan'lous about de rent. Dat debble 'scuse me, Lawd he done in Yo' hands for Jedgrnent, now he made way wld everything. The physician's silence encouraged her to continue. Tho history that ho Cleanoxl from Cindy's disordered monologue was an old one, of illusion, wilfulness, disaster, cruelty and pride. Standing out from the blurred panorama of her gabble were little clear pictures an ideal home in the far eouth; a quickly repented marriage; an unhappy season, full of wrongs and abuse, and, of late, an inheritance of money that promised deliverance; its seizure and waste by the dog-wolf during a two months' absence, and his return in the midst of a scandalous carouse. Unobtruded, but visible between even' line, ran a pure white thread through the smudged warp of the story the simple, all enduring, sublime love of the old negress, following her mistreai unswervingly through everything to tho end. When at last she paused, the phyeiclan spoke, asking If the house contained whiskey .or liquor of any sort. There was, the old woman informed him, half a bottle of brandy left in the sideboard by the dog-wolf. "Prepare a toddy as I told you," aald Doctor James. "Wake your mistress; have her drink it, and tell her what has happened." Some 10 minutes afterward. Mrs.' Chandler entered, supiVrted by old Cindy's arm. She appeared to be a little stronger since her sleep and the etimulant sho had taken. Doctor James had covered, with a sheet, the form upon the bed. The lady turned her mournful eye once, with a half-frightened look, toward it, and pressed closer to her loyal protector. Her eyes were dry and bright. Sorrow seemed to have done its utmost with her. The fount of tears was dried; feeling itself was paralyzed. Doctor James was standing near the table, his overcoat donned, his hat and medicine case In his hand. His face was calm and lmparfe practice had inured him to tho sight of human suffering. His lambent brown eyes alone expressed a discreet professional sympathy. He spoko kindly and briefly, stating that. ?as the hour was late, and assistance, no doubt, difficult to procure, ho would himself send tho proper persons to attend to the necessary finalities. "One matter, In conclusion." said the doctor, pointing to the safe with Its still wide-open door. "Your husband. Mm. Chandler, toward the end. AL

Turn several times to the right; then to the left once; stop at 41. He would not permit me to awaken you, though he knew the end ftMa near. "In that safe he said he had placed & um of money not large but enough to enable you to carry out hla last request. That was that ycu should return to your old home, and. In after days, when time shall have made It easier, forgive his many sins ageinst you." lie pointed to the table whero lay an orderly pile of banknotes, eurmounted by two stacks of gold coina "The money is there aa he described it $830. I beg to leave my card with you, in case I can be of any service later on." ßo, he had thought of her and kindly at the last! So late! And yet the lie fanned Into life ono last spark of tenderness where she had thought all was turned to ashes and dust. She cried aloud "Rob! Rob!" She turned, and, upon the ready bosom of her true servitor, diluted her grief in re lieving tears. It is well to think, also, that in the years to follow, the murderer's faleehood shone like a little star above the grave of love, comforting her, and gaining the forgiveness that is good in itself, whether asked for or no. lluahed and soothed upon the dark 'bosom, like a child, by a crooning, babbling sympathy, at last she raised her head but the doctor was gone. ntOI'AGAXDA BY 1L.U FOGGLBOXSI.
