CHAPTER XII.—CONTINUED. Almy was duly set down in S—Street, and a moment alter was clasped ftii Dora's arms. Her cousin, Julian Areola, bad entered tbe army as she »rophesied, and Helen, his wile, having riends in Baltimore, cbose to remove there. She was quite delighted to have Dora stay with her, it was so lonely with Julian away, for the two beautiful tioys that brightened their home could aot quite fill tbe vacant place in her §eart—indeed, no one could do that, but ftora's presence was nevertheless very grateful.

Dora's face grew grave and troubled Almy, who could not wait, hastily enfolded the objeotof ber journey. 'I feel so bad about it, Dora,' Bhe said Kutnbly, 'because I feel as if I had acted wrongly. I ought not to have waited, kut alter that letter came from your Biother, saying I need not come bank, gs Kent was to be absent several weeks, 4itd then—O Dora!—when I board of fbem in Washington, my pride rose, Aid 1 said they wished to get clear of aie, aud I would not force myself upon tbern. I bore it just as long as I could, «ud then I started back—oh! if I bad tfjjly gouo before!'

Dora rose and walked tbe fldor exciferily. It was such an unusjal thiug for ftora to do, that Almy paused in the Biidat of ber self reproaches to look at fcer. 'Almy,' she said, laying her band on fcer shoulder, her bine eyes biasing, 'it Ball mother's work, ana It is a shameful thing! But Kent is not blameless— fte need not be so wsak. I'll tell you tbe whole story—I thiuk I ought, though it's a hard thing to think and say of one's own mother, and brother, and— C».d help you! Almy—harder still for .uu to hear. I did not kuow before, iut mother wrote you not to come back. I know abe represented to Kent fciatyou staved of your own sccord. Aud then Dir. Gordon's speaking of •leeting you with Rusaell gave fcer 4bough to make, with Julia's help, a sttry respectable, or rather du respectatut story. And—I will keep nothing fcaok—Frances Tal image baa had more jlllnence over Keut than any woman, bis wife, had any business to have. wat a little augry—and, pardon me, Almy, for saving it—a little disappointCi iu you.

to iiear. am not KUOW oeiore, her portfolio. The rest she wished j«t mother wrote you not to come packed and sent to Hadley, but these were to be forwarded at once to Baltimore. She could get them easily from there, and it was a very uncertain thing where ahe should go. This letter sealed and addressed, she began the much harder task cf wrltlnz to Emily. She began two letters, and neither suited her. 'I am too proud,' she said, tearing them up. 'I will tell jnst the simple truth, but in a way that will be as easy as possible for them to hear.' And this was what she wrote:

was to nave the espouse of

*n wtabliihment like ours at boiu«t and mother would keep up appearances.' That night Aiiuy thought long and earnestly upon the beat onurse to pursue. Sbe had grown calmer tmw, the Unit sharp edge other sorrow and dissp p"intniHnt bad worn otf. A little feeling of pride atirml in her h*art again, Ir be was so willing to give her up, it Franc a Talliuage was more to hitu than ahe, ahe would never beg ior hia lavor. It waa a aad shipwreck to come to one'a life, but ahe determined not to go down. Perhaps it waa beat, alter all, ahe thought, remembering what Dura had aaid about Kent's 'being disappointed in her.' Separation waa eeita*uly better than living as tbey had those last few weeks of her stay at Riverbrck. Per haps ah* wan 'disappointed,' too. No oue seemed to thiuk oi that. •But,' some one exuiaiuis, 'if ahe bad loved her husband as a woman should love the man ahe marries, ahe oouid not argue ao i-oolly about it.'

I don't know. I have a theory tJbat love ian't worth much that it ia such hard work to keep, and neglect and wrong will soon drive it to an untimely death. But that ia not the point I wiahed to make. She did not love bim aa wivea should love. Two thirds of thoie wo men who marry do not.

Almy waited over the next night, wishing to see Colonel Loveriug. But he did not come Instead, he wrote a line saying that bis regiment waa ordered into Western. Virginia to join Roaecrans' command.

She had decided not to write herself, bat to authorise Dora to say lor her whatever she thought proper, particularly stipulating that ahe should mention that Almy had received no letter nor any hint of the journey to Europe, until her return to Riverbeck, alter their departure.

She bad resolved to go back to Hadley. lhere, at least, love and welcome were assured. The feeling in regard to her husLand's conduct bad worn oft'a little. The neighbors need know no more than the simple fact of hi* having gone to Europe What the future held for her, whether it should be estrangementor reconciliation, she knew nut, and abe resolved to give it as little thought as possible. If only she had Home great, absorbing work to occupy her mind 1 There was the war, to be sure, but it was weary work sitting at home and waiting. Suddenly there flashed through her braiu the words of the soldier, 'Bill:' 'Why can't you come down here aud take care of us lellows who get hit?'

Sure enough, why couldn't sbe? The question came up in her mind, and lin xered and haunted her through all the pleasant morning to ride to Wilming

prophesied, ana ueien, nis wire, naving 'on, some seventy miles. The more she friends in Baltimore, chose to remove thought of it, the more desirable it seem ed. No one seemed t» need her, anywhere. Other women had already gone, many leaving cloter ties than bound her, doubtless. She eould not tightwhy not do what she could? When the train stopped at Wilmington, her reso lutiou was taken. Going, to a hotel, she secured a room for the day and night, and calling for writing materials, proceeded at once to business.

A strange feeling of freedom and independence seemed to* have taken possession of her. She had thought of self long enough—henceforth her first *care and thought should be for others. What ever was best for her she was willing to accept, whether of sorrow or gladness. "All as God wills, who wisely heeds

glvtf or to withhold."

she whispered softly, a strange, sudden peace settling over her perturbed spirits. don't suppose I am a Christian, not as Emily is,' she said cheerfully, 'out I'm going to do the best I can, just the same as if I were.'

And then she set about writing her letters. First she wrote to Mrs. Kempton to pick out of her wardrobe three dresses her brown linen, her all wool delaine—blue—and a dark print which was hung up under the rest. She smiled as she thought how long it bad hung there—ever since she came to River beck. The Johnstones didn't wear prints for morning dresses, as they did at Had ley, aud so she had no u»e for it. Then a few other articles of necessity, and the contents of her work box, and

•Whatever you want me to, sir,' waa the steady answer, He dropped his hand from the latch and turned squarely toward her, looklug at her steadily, The gray eyes did not droop or waver. 'What can you do?' be asked, abruptly •Work, sir.' 'You look like it! Let me give you a piece ol advuv: (11 home aud leave this business to stouter hearts and stronger hauds. You've a Hue theory, undoubtedly, but let me t«ll you, there ia no ro Uianoe in the practice.' •lam uotin ut-at of romance, sir, and,' the gray eyes were darkening, *1 ahall not go home if there is anytbiug I can do.' 'You will break down in a week.'--•'1'iien I wl worK that week,' 'And faiut away at tbe first sight of blood.' •I never fainted In my life. I have nit come here, Dr. Malvern, Irom any sentimental Ireak ol romance, aa jou seem to suppose. 1 am prepared to witness anfl^nug and duatb, since these things must be, and to do all 1 can to alleviate tbeui. I waa told there was need of nurses.' 'Neeu! We haven't half help enough in any ol tbe wauls.' 'Then I shall certainly stay,' she said resolutely. 'What is your name?' he asked, ab-

'Well, Miss Joonstone, since •Mrs Johnstone,' she interrupted quietly. •Sinoe you. are determined to stay, Mrs. Jobustone,' he continued, 'you osn cone witli me now. I admire your per aistence, but I reiterate my belief that jou will break down in a week. I pre sume your husband is in tbe army?'

A swilt flood of crimson swept to her forehead, and then died slowly away but her eyes aud voice were steady as she replied: ,• 'No, sir, he is notA

I)r. Malvern was puzzled. From tbe first he had been sure that lover or husband had been the magnet that bad drawn her hither. •There's a poor fellow who had an arm amputated yesterday, and there la just about one chance in ten lor him. He ueeds constant attendance^ but it has been impossible to provide it. You shall lake him in charge, and Bee how you can stand it,' he said, as they walked down tbe ward together. 'You can go iu here and lay aside your things,' opening aside door, 'aud then I will suow you your patient.'

Almy glanoed down tbe loDg room, with its rows of beds, irora which issued groans and exclamations of impatience or despair, but though her cheek pa ed a little, she did not falter in her resolu tion.

Five minutes .later, Dir. Malvern, standing by the bedside of a patient, felt alight touch on his arm. He turned aud saw his new nurse, looking more flight and youthful than before she had lain aside her wraps. 'I am ready, sir,' she said, simply.

Dr. Malvern bad a vague impression that be ought to send her bouie, if she bad any, but something in the fair, resolute face told him that it could not be so easily done and so, with some misgivings, he conducted ber to tbe patient be bad mentioned. •Iverson,' he said, stooping over the ball unconscious man, 'I have brought you a nurse. I warn you, you'll have to get well it she eays so, for she is terribly persistent.'

The languid eyes half unclosed, and then a slow, pleased look came over the pallid face. •I'm glad you concluded to oome,' he whispered faintly. •Aud so am I,' 6be answered, with a hopeful smile, as she recognized ber car .cqu.IM.oc, BI1L ,lf,

CHAPTER XIII.

It was*the last week in August! Almy Johnstone bad been in the hospital three weeks, and even Dr. Malvern was forced to admit that ho saw no signs of 'breaking down.' On the contrary, her pulse waa steadier, and though her face was always sweet and tender, it was also calm and firm, and tbe quiet, steady fire in her eyes did not waver.

It was the proudest and happiest day of her life when hor patient, Will Iverson, sat up in bed and ate some toast she had made him. 'I told vou you'd have to get well, old fellow, if"«Ac said so,' Dr. Malvern said, coming along at that moment. 'I never saw so self willed a woman.' 'I never saw such an angel,' was the low, reverent answer.

For tbe first time in all that three weeks Almy felt an almost overwhelming desire to steal away by herself and indulge in a eood cry. She bad watched the fluttering pulse and noted every change in the white, deathly face, witn such a wild, absorbing luterest she had felt as if, in some way, she was responsible for his lire—as if ber faithfulness would somehow save him and when at length he began to revive, and day after day the doctors grew more hopeful of him, until they pronounced bim decidedly convalescent, her heart was full of grateful rejoicing.

It had soemed so strange, too, that he whose first careless word had put the thought Into ber heart should be her first patient! Only five days before he had been full of life and health, boasting of what be was going to do!

As be grew able to talk, be told ber bow it happened. His regiment bad been ordered to join Rosecraus' com maud in Western Virginia, but at tbe last tnoment the order bad been countermanded, the fear of an approach on Washington by tbe Southern forces being so great at that time that it was deemed advisable to mass large nam bers of troops in that vicinity. Three companies of bis regimen', were detailed for picket duly, and tbe first night out, about lifteen minutes betore the time for bim to be relieved, two bullets bad been fired simultaneously, one taking effect !n bis arm just above the elbow, the otber ploughing through tbe flesh of tbe opposite shoulder. Tbe report brought tbe rollef at once, who found bitn fainting on tbe ground, whence an ambulant removed him at daybreak to Annapolis.

Bat tbts was not all lie told ber. He told ber of bis bome, of bis father ana mother, whose only ebild be was, and how bis mother bad clung to hiu rntck Jkt parting, wltb a faae like fleatb, out wttb tearless eyes. 'Peor mother,' be said, 'aba did not Know that it was Louise Kutherford false heart, more than patriotism, that had sent her boy to tbe war.'

And then, partly beoause he ff«Hw«ik and wanted to coofkle in some

llljllpi

one,

and

partly because be V*memWr«J, with a little flush of shame, tbe condition be was in when he had accosted Almy In tbe cars, and wished to eft^wM himself tbe best he might, be told her the whole story of bis love and faltb, and tbe heartiMancw* and falseness of the woman in whom be bad trusted. It was the fame !d story that has beentbtd hUMfed* dr but Almy wept softly when be her, remembering, with sudden ng of self reproach, another slight belt a simitar story, only

Rutherford bad net tnarrci

as *h« had. But abe bad lured bim on ami let htm believed she loved bim, and then suddenly rejected bim with cruel aud bitter words, Almy bad not done that, but was she l«s« blameless Had abe not done worse? •Yon *"e, I dldn csre much what be came of me then,' be said, 'and so I enlisted, for 1 wouldn't stsy in Hudson, where I met her every day. And then I forgot my manhood and drank with the other boys—drank deeply, for I waa half wild, and that made me happy and forgetful. When 1 flrat kn«w that I bad lout my arm, and should have to go back, and crippled at that, I wiahed I might die. But since you came here, with your pure, earnest face, and gentle ministrations, caring tor me aa if I were your own brother—and, I shall always believe, saving me from death—I have felt differently My mother loves me—ehe will love me just as well now that I am maimed—and there ia a place aud a use for mo yet in the world, or I should not have lived. The hardest of it now Is hat I can't do anything for tbe country. If it had only been In a fair battle, and I bad struck even one blow for tbe old flag, I wnulifn hive inlnaei. But now it seems as It I hadn't done anything, and this is all for nothing,' touchlug the empty sleeve.

This he asiid two or tbr^e weeks later, when he was able to walk to the door by leaning a little on Almy, But he was still very weak, andr oh! so thin and white—looking little enough like the bronzed, healthy young fellow whom Almy remembered. •I dread going back,' he said, as be turned reluctantly from tbe door, 'but I suppose I must. 1 believe I'm pretty weak yet.'

Almy glanced anxiously in hlBface—it was colorless as marble. Sue opened a side door that led into a little anteroom. 'Here, come in here and rest a mo ment,' she said quietly, though she felt bim leau more heavily on her, and expected evary Instant he would .faint.

It was quiet and cool In there, and tbe soft September air came in through tbe open window. It was so pleasant, he begged to stay a little while and so, alter be felt better, and she bad made bim a comfortable place to lie, by putting some chairs in trout of a settee, and arranging blankets and pillows iu it, she went out to wait on some fever patients whom Dr. Malvern had committed to ber care that inoruing.. Once she went ba?6 to see if he wanted anything. He lay with closed eyes as if asleep, but be looked up and smiled when she quietly opened the door. So she closed it softly and hurried back to her work There were medicines aud gruels, and so many things to1 be attended to, that she began to feel a little Hneasy about her patient in the anteroom, and almost to regret that she had left him tbere alone.

But at last she was at liberty. She was quite at the door before she was fairly conscious that there were voices, and low, st'fled sobbings in the room. A little startled, she opened the door, and saw her soldier sitting upright, a faint llush on his thin cheek, while, kneeling at his side, with her silken robes trailing on tbe dusty floor, was a young, beautiful woman. •O Will! I bave been nearly distracted ever since I heard you were wounded Can you ever forgive me, dear Will Almy heard her say, and then she very gently closed the door, aud stepped away on tiptoe,

She knew at once that it was Louise Rutherford, and, for one little moment she envied ber and poor, sick, crippled Will Iverson their happiness. A sudden fierce longing swept through her heart, breaking down with its overwhelming force all the sophistries and weak argu ments with which she bad tried so long to decf-ive herself. And she knew at that moment that, despite all the barri ers that stood between, despite all tbe wrong and sin, she loved Lance Russell with a wild, passionate, uncontrollable love. For a moment, the life of toil and self sacrifice and devotion looked hard and unlovely, and all the woman in ber nature clamored for rest and love—his love!

She bowed her bead in her hands, while swift, fiery blushes dyed ber face. 'God help me!' she gasped, with burning lips.

As if in answer to her cry, tbe old peace and calm came Blowly back, though the knowledge struck out in that moment of ber heart's white heat, did not depart. But she had strength to fold it away, as she bad done otber pains and passions of ber life, and to take up with willing, yea, even joyful, hands, her chosen work of Belf abnegation and sacrifice.

Two days afterward, Louise Rutherftird started for Hudson with her soldier, young Will Iverson, who had gained so fast since she came tbat Br. Malvern thought he oould bear tbe journey. 'I shall always love you, Mrs. Johnstone,' she said softly, 'for caring so tenderly for Will. He thinks you area veritable angel,' smiling a little. •No,' was the quick reply. 'I am very human, very weak, and very sinful, too but I am so glad I have done some one some little good, and oh the quiet lips trembling, I am so glad yon came!' 'And so am I,' wlthalittle bright blush, •I am so glad that I did not find out my mistake loo late.'

A os as or an in Aluoy's ears for days and days, though she struggled bard to forget self, and think only of those about! How they came up in the long lonely nightwatches, as she sat by some unconscious sufferer, and mingled wierdly with the low moans, like some wild, passionate refrain,!,.
