He pressed on like a contradiction of the Ohrtotma« spirit. He had not far to go before reach ing the ancient looking house that had once known youth and gHyety as the result of his prosperity, but, which in Ito loneliness and disrepair, had be come a surviving sympathy In his later and adverse experiences. There he could sit and renew In memory the •vents and as«oclatlons of happier days, which, like pictures In the gal lery of life, were vivid again for a moment out of their tarnished frame«. They were more real than the pic tures that hung upon his walls, for it la the artistic atmosphere of the day that determines the light In which Its art shall be viewed, and these works of the past bad become only memorials to the present to which he had come. But the present realities of the past are as helpless as the old-fastiloned- nesses of the present to succor fainting mortality, and the old artist had to confess on that Christmas eve that he was not only hungry, but rather hope lessly so. It was title that his artirtto remains were not wholly despised. Mr. Blavatsky’s quctlon room was pot very far away, ¿nd there was a dally slaughter of helpless picture« thank But this massacre of Innocents their father could not consent to f he felt ready to starve first.

It was the evening al the big Christmas dance at the Trunket- vllle town hall, an event in which old and young all over the countryside purtidpated, a night remembered throughout the year, and anticipated long before Its arrival. The couples fairly flew around the hall, some spryly, others not quite so nimbly. Nevertheless, there was an heroic effort about It that was appeal- Ing, to say the least, The last strains of music died away promptly as the clock struck twelve. newfangled ideas about these all-night (lances won favor in this town. As the couples filed out of the hall, Caroline and IluMwln were the last to leave. Anu in arm, apparently suf ficient unto themselves, deeply en grossed In an' all-absorbing conversa tion, they approached a small car parked near the hull. Itusswln opened the door of the machine and helped Caroline In. Closing the door be seat ed himself at the wheel and soon they were off down the road. “Engine’s a little cold,” apologized Russwln as the car alternately coughed and choked, getting up speed. “That was a great dance.

Caroline caught at Russwfn’s strong arm. She uttered not >i sound, but gradually, as the car turned, her grasp relaxed and she formed merely a limp little heap along with seat cushions and other accessories which all tum bled luto a pile on the inside of the car. Russwln’s only thought was of Caro line. She made no reply to Russwln as he endeavored to free her. He wondered If she had been made un conscious by the awful Jolt, or killed outright. He heard the whir of an approach ing car.
