Cwity Copyright, lOOi.bj Charlotte A. Canty They carried him In from the sur geons' room nnd lntd him on the nar row little hed that the nurse had made ready. Ucr eyes were wide, and her face was pale to the lips, hut her step was steady and her manner calm as they withdrew and left her alone with him. A suppressed sob shook her frame as she lightly touched the band ages over his eyes, those honest pray ryes In which she had read nothing but loyalty and devotion. But Annie -Morton was a trained nurse, and she forc ed down the rising tide of emotion and sat beside her patient, quietly waiting for him to regain consciousness. When be stirred, her hand was on his breast hi nn instant, holding him steady. "Only the nurse," she said in a low, even tone. "You are to remain per fectly quiet." The meaning of her words came to him slowly as the effect of the anes thetic wore off. "Nurse," he suddenly asked, "why are my eyes bandaged?" "They have been injured," she ex plained, "but we think not seriously. The only way to be sure that we shall save your slpltt is to keep the eyes Bandaced?or a Time." ' i'-'S Her qule! manner' subdued him, nnd he was silent, but only for n moment. "Tell me llrst," he snld, "have you seen my brother, Jim Curtis;" I A shudder-ran through the girl. Yes, she had seen him, stretched out in eternal quiet. "AH is well with him," she answered, "but you must be quiet now." "He didn't see me until the last min ute," went on the man, "and I had thought that he was a thousand miles away. We were fighting our way across the clearing when 1 saw a big fellow strike at a man just ahead of me. The man turned to parry the blow, and I saw his face. It was Jim! I remember throwing myself between the fellow nnd my brother, but nfter that 1 don't remember anything." The nurse wns trying to stop him. "I know," she said. "A shell burst nlmnst In front of vnnr fnen. It wnn I Captain Jim Curtis who led the men J nKt-i iv li at t1ooriiif Tt n-no rivtL'lace work" "i-? - - - - - "Yes, but that's Jim, though," said the man. "Why, he'd dare anything. THE NCKSE HAD SUNK DOWN BESIDE THE BED. How proud she'll be to hear of his courage in this affair! Say, nurse, couldn't he come In to see me'" "No, not under any circumstances," was the decided answer. "You've talk ed too much now" "I'll be quiet, nurse, hut won't you ask him to give me a whistle as he passes by? He has the prettiest whistle In the world. It's like a flute. Walt till you hear It!" II ' II A swift rush of tears blinded the : Ik? brave for my sake, for the sake of nurse. She was only a woman, and it j a day that may "be?" meant much to her that the playmate A light of understanding settled slow of her childhood's days was even then , ly upon his changing face. His hand being carried away to lie forever silent In n soldier's grave. "Ask him to whistle Just once. He'll I surely come to ask about me." "I'H see about It," she answered at ,cnfitu. you think it will not excite you too much." "Oh. nurse" the big man's voice had grown tremulous "I haven't heard that whistle for five years! You'd know whnt he ls to me if you knew what I've given up for him." The nurse caught her breath. "We'll , . il , .

The man lay still, wondering how long the darkness would last, ne felt lost, lying here alone, but suddenly through the stillness there came a clear "high whl'stfe, another and then a succession of bird calls. The man lay tingling with delight In the sounds. "Jim!" he whispered. "God bless you, lad I Thank heaven that I was with you In time!" When the nurse came In again, she found him tranquilly smiling. "He did whistle, nurse, the same merry old whistle. Couldn't you ask him for me how Annie Is? Only that!"' "I can't ask him anything," replied the girl, with forced calmness. "I shall not see him again." The man sighed. "Well, 1 won't trouble you, nurse. I'd like to know how she is, though. There isn't nnothcr woman In nil the; world like our whistling girl." The nurse did not dare to speak. "Ynu'ro n strnncer to me. nurse," he went on, "nnd 1 yet I can't help telling it. She lived near us all you all about her life, but It wasn't until Jim came, to me witn nis nopes umi x i wnat sue wns to me. i neui iuiu ira, could see that she ami Jim were made for each other, but I couldn't A Al,.w mwl nmnlr Tl'dlt tnV tllP stay there mill tamely wait ior me end.

I hopeshe'6happy. V6 like to ask jimwhy he's here and not with her. But she has spirit and courage. She's not the one to bid him stay Idle at home In these times. Nurse, was that a tear on my hnnd? There I didn't mnke you cry, did I?" The nurse choked back the tears and lt replied In her habitual half voice was the lotion that I use for your bandages. No more talking tonight, please." "No more, nurse, but you know now why I wished to hear Jim's whistle. To hear him ls to know that he is safe and that no sorrow will come to An nie." The whistle flonted up to him each morning nnd evening nt the hour that the nurse went to report. The old airs that were familiar about his- western home came to the patient listener in the darkened room. He "nnv stromrnr ns tho ,invs went bv. nnd tlio wn toll cm him wltb dreamy happiness. j$ She had been away from him one ; morning, and when she returned she j met the doctor nt the door. He was J talking with a friend, and ns she step- ; ped past him the words rang clearly Into the quiet room: "To.replaee Captain Jim Curtis, who wns killed in that skirmish on the ISth." "Who was what?" The patient had J started up iu bed, his face white with ' horror. The uurse sprang to him. He J fell back as she reached him. He ' stiffened in her arms, and the black-' 1 ness of despair settled down upon the ' heart and the hopes of the whistling J Rirl. ! The doctor's abrupt commands rous- j cd her. She was the nurse again, not i the stricken woman. Torrf.tl.or thOT of the shadow, and presently she was I alone with him again. "Nurse," he said, with a sob in his I voice, "I suppose I must have been dreaming or maybe was not quite sane, but I'll swear I heard that whistle. It wns Jim's signal, I know. But Jim Is dead! Oh, Autile!" The nurse wns down on her knees beside him. Her strong, soft hands held his; her voice was steady and sweet. "Listen, dear," she said. "Annie is Annie is here! You couldn't know me while your eyes were hound; hut, dear, you were more blind before. It was uever Jim; it never could be. It was you then; it ls you now. Oh, my love, you have lost much, but will you not closed tightly upon hers. "Annie," he whispered, "is it a dream?" The nurse laughed In spite of the tears that would flow. "Oh. doubting one," she said, "how could this be a dream?" And light as an elfs caress he felt her kiss upon his lips. Anatrallan Treea.
