Sud denly a thoughtful member of the par ty paused and said: "fiurely something is wrong. I feel that something is amiss. Oyesl It has been almoet two hours since we had Mr. Coe Dakk take a group of OS." And immediately the matter was at tended to. - I had been sitting for six long , weeks behind my doorplate waiting for the pattvnts that, in: the first hope I ful days of my new - venture. ' were most confidently looked for. Contra ry to everyone's advice, I had decided upon making a practice in prefer ence to buying one; but, so fair they-r-the patients were conspicuous by their absence. It was, I say, the end of my first six- weeks the longest , and weariest six weeks I had ever passed. Each hour dragged out Its sixty minutes, and each minute saw the death of a hope, until nojv of all hope I was near ly bankrupt when the consulting room bell gave out at length its first wild peal. The Instantaneous result was simply indescribable; The good old soul who kept house for me nay, did every thing rora cooking to praying for me and who shared to the fullness of her warm old heart in all my hopes and fears, hastened to smooth the hair and clothes of the Buttons, and hurry him to the door. He the But tons assumed a dignity and import ance that I shall never forget, while I rushed to my bedroom to put on my frock coat and call up my profes- sional attitude. "When I entered the "insulting room." as the Buttons persisted ic calling my well arranged sanctum I found a tall, slender girl standing there, with clear-cut, well-pronounced features, a prominent chin and large luminous eyes, having dark shadows beneath. She was dressed In a dark gray waterproof that fitted her per fectly, a hat of the fashion ot two years ago, and a pair of much-mended slate-colored gloves. Her manner was quiet but thoroughly self-possess ed; she rose as I entered, and told me that she kept a tobacco and papei shop in Arlington street, close by, '.Ska had. she said, been far from well of late, and would be glad if 1 would give her something that would enable her to get through her work Upon sounding her chest I found that she was suffering from pleurisy, and advised her to go home and to bed for a day or two. adding that if she con tinued to get about In her present condition she .would probably have a severe llliness. The following day I visited her at her little shop,' at the back of which was a small apartment that did duty as a sleeping, sitting and eating room I found her lying on the sofa, breath ing painfully and heavily, and as I asked automatically the stock ques tions, and at the same time took in e contents of the room, I rapidly rea,wd that . nad anything but an ordinary patient to deal with. The girls mantrar. the neatness of her dress, the peri-t cleanliness of the tiny room, the character of the few books on the shelf, which were parti; theological and partly well-chosen novels, contrasted most markedly with the startling absence of every comfort nay, almost every necessity of life. Having given her all neces sary directions and prescribed the necessary medicine, I rose to go, and aa I did so asked ir sue would allow me to send her a bottle of some wine I had, that I thought applicable to her case. She thanked me. and from that day until she had recovered not wine only, but soup, and other necessaries were daily supplied her from my house. In a fortnight she was quite herself again and busy in her little shop, From that date the whole aspect of my practice was changed; the sur gery bell got no prolonged rest; the old housekeeper became exultant; the Buttons found the place anything but the sinecure he had at first anticipat ed, and I, from the crest of the rising wave, saw a great professional careei Just ahead of me. But the strangest part of this strange turn events had so suddenly taken, was that every pa tient, or nearly every patient, could be traced, either directly or indirect ly to my rnena in Arlington street. "Miss Milne, sir," many of them would say, "has advised me to consult you with reference to my child's health. Miss Milne tells me sir, that you are great on Joints.' I called several times to thank ber for the energetic way In which she was more than repaying me for my efforts to be of service to her. I ordered .my morning paper and to- premonitory symptoms ot a severe at tack of Inllamation ot the lungs, that kept him hanging between lite ' and death for many daya. Miss Milne was standing over him, wringing her hands with an intensity ot emotion that was altogether unaiint-llke and from that moment I was confirmed in my conviction that the child was her own. When I called to see my little pa tient the next day I found the Inflam mation firmly established, and having altered his prescription, I dispatched her to a neighboring room to borrow some boiling water, that we might make a poultice for the little fellow's chest Directly she left, the thought struck me that very likely there was no material to be had whereon to spread the linseed, and seeing a bun dle of clothing on the ton shelf. I pro ceeded to unpack it, hoping to find something suitable. On how minute a thread a destiny may hang;! "Throw a stone," said an old scientist, "and you alter th.e earth's axis. I pull down a bundle of apparently old clothing, and I ruin two lives. This fateful bundle was loosely wrapped up in a piece of black lining material, from the corners of which peeped out what I had taken to be some old calico; but I had no sooner untied the parcel than I found, first a white lawn surplice, then an exquis itely worked stole, an Oxford hood, a long black cassock and a photograph of the gentleman who had evidently owned' and had been photographed in this costume. When Miss Milne returned she found me staring Into this, to me, in explicable collection of mysteries, She started back .with an exclamation of painful astonishment, and then, in stantly rcovering herself, she said, with no betrayal of the emotion that was welling from every pore of her I have got the water you require. Is there anything more I can get, doc tor?" I thanked her and said I wanted an old piece of Btuft whereon to spread mv linseed, and had been tnrnlnx over what I had mistaken for a bundle of old linen. You will find nothing there that Is suitable, she said, with assumed composure; "but this handkerchiel may do." And together we made and applied the poultice. I called the next night to see how my little patient was progressing, and finding him better. I was about to leave, when Miss MUlne asked me if I could spare a few moments In which she would tell me "something of her past life, which she would like me to know." With this request, I need scarcely say, I willingly compiled anas Milne began by telllne me that her father was a small farmer In Blankshlre. and as he was poor and blessed with a large family, of which she was the eldest. It was her father's wish that she should, earn her own livelihood. With this object in view, she had applied for and obtained a situation in a large drapery establishment at the west end of London, where she was not only very happy, but very success ful. Four months after her entry Into this establishment she caught cold placing it exactly and closely In front of ilne, sat down. He paused as though to collect himself, and then takinar a deeo breath, he bhntod out.

"The church ot my fathers, the churcu of my own boyhood, nay, the articles1 of my present faith, at I read them, Invoke, Insist upon celibacy In a priest But, Miss Milne,' he continued, i am human. I have fought hard and long against this weakness until I am no lonarer able to continue the battle.' Then sinking on his knees before .me and taking both of my :hands In his, and wringing them in the depth and strength ot his pssion, he poured forth, with favor begotten of his na tionality, the story of his love and his fight against it When he had finished his terrible story, I asked him In voice far less audible to me than the throbblngs of my own heart: 'What do you wish me to do?' He asked me under some pretext to go to Brixton, and he. would follow and meet me there. "The day following we will be married, and then and then'" here Miss Milne folded her face In her hands and continued : "He drew Btich a picture of our after life. Its sweets. Its love. Its happy contentment, that 1 too, being human, consented. The fol lowing" day we were married at Brix ton, and that day saw the last of all happiness and all hope in my life. We took two rooms in a quiet street in Brixton, and I had not been married twenty-four hours before I found that in my husband there were two men distinct and utterly dis similar the. clergyman that I had known, and the husband that I had yet to learn. The one had all the capa city for making men and women, es pecially women, love and revere him; In the other was combined every at tribute that goes to the making of bad men. I lived with htm for two months. The greater part of his time was. of necessity, expended In clerical duty; he would return once or twice a week, and when heame in would often kiss me, and that quite fondly: then he would put oft his clerical suit and put on a suit of tweet, and with the change of clothes the whole man would altei aa If by magic." Miss Milne looked up from the fire and added: "You may know, sir, something of the science of this sud den change of character, but I only know that It happened and the hor rors of it." till Wln Etnoed. r would like tomethlnn with check In l" mM !

' Lady M readily agreed, and it 1 divided into 2, and 1 divided by 2. One divided into 2 is 1 divided into One divided by 2 is the ratio of 1 to 2, or the number of times 2 is contained in one.

But one Saturday, morning when I called to pay my weekly bill, all my well and laboriously worked out day dreams of her were dispelled by the sudden appearance of a beautiful lit tle godlen-haired child upon the scene. He was about two years of age, and when I entered was shouting for his call upon her the following morning.
