"Rosamond. 70a are the meat Impul sire person I ever met la sir life," saM CoL Trefoils to bia hostess oa the mora ine after their visit to Keppiagieo, with Ita straBge endiag. "Is there any harm la being Impul sive?" sbe aaswered, smlMng at him across the breakfast table, as abe poor ont his tea; "have not half the great and good actions of tbla world's history been achieved by impulse?" "Itosaniend, was it npon Impulse, and If so, npon an impnlso of what nature waa it, that you married Samuel Earle?" She looked op quickly and met bis eyes; he waa In earnest, terribly In earn est, she could see that. She looked away from blm quickly, leaning ber elbow oa tbe table aad playing silently with her teaspoon. He waa beginning to nnder ataad her. "IleaTea ealy knows," the answered blm sadly, after a pause, "unless it was one of utter despair aad hopeletsaosa." "Aad see what cane of it, years of re peBtanco aad resret! If you had aot taken that rash aad Ul-ooasldered step " "Then I sheald sever bave kaown you," she interrupted him Quickly, flash lag ber lovely eyea ap into bis with a smile that t all his pulses tlngliag.

If h ever won It, must be bis of ita own freo will and by every dalm. "I will never," he answered ber grave ly. "I will never content to your taking any other great step In your life upon tbe Impulse of a generous moaieat." She beat her bead, a deep color suf fused ber face from brow to aeck. She understood kirn, and she waa grateful to blm. The strength of his self-control affected ber more than a torrent of pas sionate words. "Now, seo what you have done now; saddled yourself with a consumptive ser vant maid, and turned your bouse Into a hospital. Hero Is tbo doctor's gig at tbe gate oneo morel" "I'oor girl, ahe bad a dreadful night. I fear she Is rwx III; the did not seem to be eoaieious wbea I last saw her." "What made you bring ber home la that rath and Impulsive fashion?" "It It a silly reason, I know; you will say ao, of course, because you are sensi ble, but I I am foolish! I think It was becauso Mrs. Succurden told me that tbe poor girl was a protege of Mrs. Desmond's." Two day went by. Tbe doctor went and came. Tbe sick girl upstairs was reported better, though still unablo to leave ber bed. Itosamond was happy, happier than tbe had been for many years. John Trefusls made blmtlf the companion of ber dally walks. Together tboy trudged through tho fast-melting suow, laden with baskets of provisions for the poor at tho cottages, whom Itosa mond was accustomed to visit almost dally. During these walks they talked often and earnestly about tbe fate of JJrlan's wife, which weighed like a load stone upon Rosamond's heart, and tacitly there grow up a tort of unspoken under standing between tnom. itosamond would take no new Joy of life for herself until she had restored happiness to tbe woman who waa In sorrow through ber own In strumontallty. Col. Trefusls come to un derstand this, and tboy spoke of Mrs. Desmond frequently.

Ity aad by tbe doiol off again, tbea dropped law a calm, dreamless ttamber. Wbea she awoke agam It waa night. Tbe room waa dimly Ht. a shaded lamp threw a pale radiance over the face of a maid servant wbo sat by tbe table near the Ire, sewing at tome white work. Kit tea watched ber dreamily, with so par ticular interest la her, nor say desire to understand who ahe was, or why she was sitting there. Presently there came the soft rustle of a loag skirt across the floor, some one came aad stood by ber bed, and bent down over her. Kitten opened ber eyea wide. She saw a tall form dad la black, great lustrous eyea that fixed themselves full of a di vine pity upon ber, the slender outline of a cheek that wat no longer full awl round, and sweet, drooping lips that teemed as If they must ever bo given rather sympathy than to laughter. Then came tbe touch of a cool long-fingered band upon her brow; for one moment of dtHckm peace and rest the sick girl's eyelids closed. Then, when the looked again tbe vision was gone. The second day pa Med very much as tbe first bad done. She was better, bat still too weak to reason aad to tblak; tbo little coach that bad beoomo a sec ond nature to ber hardly seemed to dU tress ber, or to concern tbote wbo wait ed upon ber. She took more food, alept better, and as tbe day wore away, ca tered distinctly Into an Improved con dition. Again there came tbe vision of that tall, beautiful woman, beading over ber with tho pitiful Madonna-like face, and this time there was a murmured ques tion: "My poor child, you are better to night r Then Kitten looked at her somo min utes gravely and solemnly. In silence. At last her lips moved; she gave no an swer to the question, only she said slow ly aad laboriously, beeaaso of tbe physi cal effort which It gave ber to speak, bat still perfectly distinctly. "Sbe moves a goddess, and ahe looks n queen." Her visitor drew back, she looked sur prised, even startled, but she said noth ing mere, ami Kitten saw her glide away behind the sheltering screen at tbe foot of her bed. The next morning, which was tbe third day, KltUs was alive once more to tbe realities of life going on about ber. She sat up in bed to eat her breakfast, the was full of curiosity; the questioned tbe maid wbo waited upon her eagerly and Impatiently: "Where am IT" sbe asked ber. "You ore at Duastertoo." "How far Is that from Kepptngton Y' "Little over three miles, my dear." "Hut bow did I get here? Have I been ill?" "My mistress brought you In her own carriage, and It's ber own doetor that has waited on you. Yes, poor thing, you've beon rcrj HI; you was In a dead faint when you was brought here, but you am much better now." "And whoso houso, then, Is this?" "It Is my mistress bouse." "And her name?" "lUt name is Mrs. Earle." Something between a sigh and an ex clamation escaped from ber lips, her bead fell back upon ber pillows. A faint flush stole up Into ber face, and tho closed her eyc-s. "Do you wont anything else, my doar'" Inquired hor attendant kindly. "Yes," said Kitten, looking at her eagerly, "I want to bo left quite, quite alone by myself. If your mistress asks to see me, say I don't want to be dis turbed. I I want to go to sleep. I shall not want anything." When she was left qulto alone, Kitten crept out of her bed like a guilty thing. Sbe found her poor shabby clothes neatly folded on a chair together, and with In finite pains and difficulty she managed to dress herself, thea she crept to the window. "It choke me'ta tp here." tbe mr ; mitredt "Ih ber hoav bring upon ber 1 charity, wkh ber bvsHtlfnl. tender farej l-emltK m M" every day. Oh, I can I understand why be mre ber to. t'uld nymt la barf a century eras to lre such a woman at that? Hut 11 ran not stay ber.

Sbe looked about for Mime wrap vt shawl to cvw ber tboakier. bat Uwfo was nothing of tbe Wind am,nc ber humble betoagiiM. The We dtak, ta which tbe bad West wrapped he tbe came, bad been taken away at M Mr. lCarle's room.
