other realms three moerne or fates have a room nil to themselves in the bis of- hce building of the ends and they run things with a high hand one would think that in these days of progress clotho would get some thing to take the place of that old spinning wheel on which she spins the thread of life and that atropos could and an instrument less unwieldy than that long pair of dull shears she line been using to cut the thread when she decides its long enough however they seem to have got along so far without modern improvements and they ought to know their business by this time anyhow this story concerns lach esis who works without instruments she simply stands near the spinning wheel and dabs weal nnd woe on that thread and twists it about ber fingers end ties knots in it to suit her own- pleasure it has been said that clotho and luchesls and atropos ure old and ugly of course as mortals reckon these fates are old but yearn dont count on olympus and as to ugliness well im willing to allow that atropos has a hideous fnrv nnd its possible clotho is not beautiful be- cnure her bnck must be iame and her eyes faded and her forehead wrinkled from bending over the spiuning wheel but lnchusls theres no reason why she should be ugly becauuo her job furnishes lots of variety moreover shes one of the heroines in this story so she has just got to be beautiful the horo is jack watson u mere mortal who defied lachesis she bad decided soon after clotho betai to spin the thread that he should be mar- rlejl before he became twentyeight years old end she had picked for his bride a girl named esther itlclinrds they wore born in the same little town in ohio and had one of those school kid romances and then when jack nus only eleven and esther eight it onded jack moved with his parents to co lumbus where they resided three years jack ahd esther wrote occasionally as children sometimes carry on a corre spondence but they wore too young to understand about affinities and such things and gradually they forgot about each other when jack was fifteen his mother lied and be moved with his father to new york the boy obtained a job as office boy with a broker and held it two years then he was promoted gnd about that time pneumonia claimed mr watson when esther was ten she went with her parents to vancouver british co lumbia and there they remained until she was twentytwo laiheslh stood in the workroom of fhimoerno one day holding jack wat sons thread of life in one hand and esther richards in the other j bow for apart they have drifted she murmured this will never do i have decided differently jack mis leaning hock in his swivel chulr with his feet on his desk in his own reni estate oiuce in melbourne australia was he thinking uhnut ksther decidedly not ills mind was full of business of how lo travel ntlli farther on llio pntli of prosiiurily whltrh he already had found esther wus reellninu on a lounge n ber home in vancouver reudltig a lteil cross macrnzlue pit

prosperous young business num all of them married whon the men was finished tho con versa lion turned to matrimony how comes it you never got mar ried jack asked george clifford as he passed cigars youro old enough and have enough coin to multo some girl comfortable and hupuy jack laughedas he llglirod the weed not mo he ssjd as ho puffed pluc- idly ill never get married im go ing to be a hormlt

jack watson whose arm ns broken he whs taken to a chicago hospital whore the ana was set his condition physically and financially warranted n nurse being assigned to special duly on the esse this was the tlrst opportunity he had had to study woman nt close rniiko anil it proved decidedly ttiiorest- ing the nurse was in constant at- temlnne during the day and rendy l answer his call at any time during tho night she was continually paitlnu thermometers into his mouth anti talc ing them out again feeling his pulxo feeding him lee cream and olhor del- cades and sadllng and she lind a pretty fore always shlninrc wllli jrooo cheer nnd a lot of other ulco ways abnnt her 0 thats funny jnrk told himself frequently i never lnew a woman could be so timeful in ihu busy world and ho jjot to wioiiuk that hls arm wouldnt be in any hurry about jrittlng mended nnd bis mind began thinking strange thoughts that is strange for him of course you know the nnrse was esther richards but he did not a lot of chaaires tnke plnce in u perron netweeu he nges of eight and twenty- five nnd there was no more reason why he should ussoclate this miss richards with the one of his school days in ohio than thnt she should recojmlite her childhood sweetheart in this mr wntson who was her pntleut bad jack been less reticent about himself their former acquaintanceship would have leaked out in the small talk that usually develops between a nurse and a convalescing patient hut as he was one who took things for granted and never displayed curiosity especially concerning the affairs of women bo had not oven nked tho customary where is your home naturally her professional reserve ac quired during nearly three years of training precluded the possibility of her taking tho initiative in such per sonal matters so the fact that they had not been schoolmstes and puppy- love sweethearts remained unre- vcaled he fought against the peculiar feel ing that was creeping over him but it was a losing fight he gave up tho strurglo and confessed first to himself and later to her that 119 was in love with her he told tier all nhout it on the day be was to leave the hospital do you bellevo in love she in quired as she stood beside the bed and retained that professional de meanor sufficiently to keep him from seizing her hand these days peo ple are beginning to have the iden that marriage is only a business contract jack laughed and forgot nil about melbourne and real estate business club dinners and hermits lives love i he echoed surely i be lieve in love every one was made for some one and i was made for you ive felt that ever slnqo i first saw you standing by this bed and counting my heartbeats havent you felt the same way she forgot about being profes sional and her hand found its way into his perhaps she confessed thats what we always read in books and there may be something to it really i foel as if i had known you always lachesis smiled a smile of triumph she drew the two threads together and held them side by sido in ono hand with the other bund she reached into thohupplneb8 box and dabbed some of the contents on the threads then sho carefully and methodically knotted
