"Why did yon not go to Mr. Flovd nd tell him the whole ston-r asked Will "Because they threatened to have the note discounted in New York, and the Dank which cashed it would have held me."

For May's sake and little Carrie's you will do it, won't you, Will?" "Yes, for Carrie's sake." whirer.-,i Will, pressing his arm against the side where the picture rested. "Where does this man live?" he asked. "He has rooms at 17. Milk street, and you can always find him before 11." Long and earnestly the two men talked. we one protesting again and again his repentance ajii his resolve to lead a bet ter life, and the other counseling hi kindly fashion. At last they separated, and Charlie, after seeing his brother-in-law to hia room, went to Ms own with a lighter heart than he had known for many a day. May was awake, and be fore he slept he had told his wife the story; but they were both happy, for was not Will there? In the mean time Will Jackson threw himself on his bed and lay there think ing. It seemed to him that the cause for the awful trial he had gone through was so pitiful, so mean! He could see tho men together, foolish Charlie excited with wine and fuU of a miserable bravado, while the others sat there and lnred Mm into their net And then, a little cour age, a little open dealing, and he would nave oeen lert with his oath to his conn try unbroken. But he was there to ave, and through the silence of the night he seemed to hear a dead girl voice full of gratitude and love! After breakfast Will Jackson walked down town, and reaching Milk street, rang the bell at No. 17. From a man who opened the door he found out where Mr. Cochran's rooms were, and saying he had business with that person walked upstairs, and knocked at the door. A sleepy voice called out, "Come in!" and passing through the door Will Jackson locked it behind him. The man in the bed eat np at this and stared. Will walked over to Mm, and drawing a re volver covered him with it CHAPTER V. "l have come here to get thut piece of paper or to kill you," "Mr. Cochran," he began in a voice which was as harsh as the sound of sharpening a saw, "my brother, Charles Farnham, tells me that you and your wcotnplicea have procured from him by fraud a certain document purporting to be a note signed by John Floyd, the president of the Dank, in which my brother is employed. Tho signature to this note is a forgery, executed by my brother, but the note itself was added aftjr the signature was written, and the indorsement has my brother's name came home. "There, Charlie," he said, "i your; note, which you had better burn. Re member it has cost a great price, and I you will be careful for the future." j "How on earth did von act it?" fr,l the brother-in-law, after many proter 'a- j tions of gratitude and promises. ' "Mr. Cochran listened to argument replied Will grimly, and that was all they ever heard. As might wave been expected, Will Jackson announced his intention of re turning to his regiment the next dav, where he proposed to face the inevitable trial, confess his desertion and submit to his punishment But it waa not to be. The next morning, after a sleepless night, he complained of min in his hiJ and when the physician came the patient was in a raging fever. Before fortv eight hours had elapsed it was evident that brain fever had him in its clutch. The trial and suffering, the mental strain he had gone through had been too much for him, and it became a question wheth er he had not iu fact laid down his life that his brother might remain uustain ed. Day after day and through the long watches of the night he tossed and talked and tossed again. Charlie Farn ham and his wife learned to know the sacrifice which Will Jackson had made ! as they listened to his p:tituj pleading to I be spared. During that time. too. Char-1 lie Farnham had an impression produced on him which never wore away; there was little fear that he would again put himself in jeopardy. When the patient recovered from the physical sickness it was found that his mind had received a shock from which it would ta8e years to recover. He was not exactly insane, bnt he seemed dull and stupid, and he remembered nothing at au or me past The physicians who attended him prescribed absolute rest from every kind of labor, and a home was found for Mm in one of those asy lums where kindness rules the applica tion or scientihc treatment Here he remained four years, patient and uncom plaining, and gradually his mental power came back to him. With it came mem ory, faint at first, but clearer and strong er as the days went by. Had it uot been for the deeply religious nature of the man it is probable that with the recollection of the sacrifice a relapse would have driven him back, and this wtis greatly feared by his physicians. One day when Charlie was with him a chance paragraph in the newspaper tell ing of the arrest of Cochran in Chicago caught Will's eye. Ho seemed dazed for a moment and then, like a flash, he re membered it alL And with the memory an expression came over his face that made Charlie cry out. Will rose, paced hurriedly np and down the walk, Ms features working violently, and when Dr. Armstrong hurried up to hip and took his arm he shook him off with a gesture of intense anger. The physician watched Mm carefully and Charlie sat there almost sick with apprehension. At last Will paused, and thinking deeply, stood for a moment. Then com ing up to Ms brother-in-law he held out Ms hand. "God saw fit to humble me, Charlie," he said solemnly, "and who am I that I should question his wisdom oi his love'" The physician gave a sigh of relief as Charlie bent his head, the tears falling vii wiv utiiiu ue uem. Three months after this Will left the asylum and stled in Springfield, where he began the practice of tne law once more. As his mental power returned more fully he slowly built up for himself a business which gave him more money than he cared to spend. Charlie and Mav and little Came and other little ones that came to them lived happily, and there was no other lapse on tho husband and father's part. The work which Will Jackson had been cuilud on t do had been done well and Ihurougblv. and as ticularly on the shores of bav or lakes. where each curve and iiulentnre of the land changes the frontage to the water.
