Wins. on did not i.hI to observe the
tinge of color on the doctor's face,
nor its quick disappearance, but he
pave no sign of recogn.tion. Never
before had he seen his old college
chum look half so handsome as when
that Heeling show of rosy color tinted
the man's cheeks, nor half so pathet
ically glum as when it tanished.
"Sliesaied my life. 1 think you will
admit that, doctor? How many wom
en would have taken the risks that
she took? Would any other woman
in the world have sacrificed herself
as she did?"
"Any number of them!" declared
the doctor, sententiously, although a
flitting smile u;on his face said:
".None of them, bless her!"
"You medical men are utterly
heartless cynics," protester) Winston,

' Nevertheless, I mean it, old c .id

during those week when my very
valuable life hung on a very slender

Not very complimentary to you, eh'.'"
"Mrs. Trevelyan is modesty and
every other grace personified!" de
clared Dr. Metford. "So far as I could
see, she 'sacrificed' herself almost, if
not quite, as magnificently us us the

The doctor's lips curved scornfully,
involuntarily, and a glow of rolor
that was hardly a blush suffused his
face.
"Ami Jess tells me," continued the
younif officer, Impert urbiibly, "thnt
1 mi;ht do a very much worse thing
than marry Mary Wethered. You
know, old chap, I've led a devil of
a life in India and elsewhere! Ter
rible lot of racketing! We army
men, you know ! So, you see, old fel
low, I er oh you know I well
er love is for me a dream of the
joyful past, ami not n vision of the
future. Mistt Wethered's knowledge
of nursing might be invaluable to
me."
Metford groaned audibly.
"It must not be!" he exclaimed, In
dignantly. ('Shall not be!" he mut
tered, inwardly.) "You don't line the
girl, you have aihnitted it; you are
not half as fond of her as of that
newest pup of yours." ("I would tlie
to save Imt half a moment's pain, and
I don't sup) ose she cares a straw for
me," he r.ilict.d, bitterly.) "I feel
like kiekitit.' you!"
He looked like kicking likewise.
"Kick me. or thump me, or do what
you will, old chap! My feeling is just
this: I am a worthless sort of fel
low, have gone the pace, ami don't
deserve the love of any woman in
the world--"
"What man ever did?" growled Met
ford. "Oh, but you haven't a notion what
a thorough bad lot I've been! Ilon'l

k id: wort hy convalescent. "1 was go
in!.' lo tell you something tli.it .les
tolilr me which makes me tolerably
sure that Miss Wethered but you
would only scoff. I never knew such
a fellow as you, upon my word!"
Metford smiled illegibly.
"The Misiliou is a very simple one,"
he said. "Assuming that from what
your sister has been- pardon me for
saying so -unwisely suggesting to
you, Mary - I mean. Miss Weihered
cares enough for you to marry you,
a worthless and hearth's but toler
ably good looking chap like you, who,
as you justly remark, don't deserve
the love of any woman, nor, for that
m in 1 1 it. the succession to one of the
oto'est and wealthiest baronetcies In

lie paused, his face white and drawn,
