The world is large enough to afford us a. seat apiece to-night.” Bertha adjusted her wraps and the horses stepped off down the street as gnyly as if their driver had not been disappointed. There was not very much conversation to- day; indeed there never was unless Philip afforded it. Bertha considered she did her part in looking Well, smiling prettily at his witticisms, with now and then a remark, if she felt inclined. But today Philip .was moody and silent. So Bertha. gave herself up to the sensuous delight of riding, and only spoke in mild exclamations of admiration of the scenery as they left the village behind and followed up the winding river.

The man turned, and one might have thought he did not recognize the occupants of the carriage, except that there was the least bit of a. flush on his face, which bore the lines of interrupted medita- tion.

But itis lucky you haven’t got your board to pay meanwhile.” But Curran did not smile, and was very ill at ease. He seemed to be lifted, body and soul, into the very life he was accustomed to rebuke. The beautiful horses of the rich were harnessed today to his pleasure with their gold plate trimmings. “’hat right had he here?

And yet he was taking delight in this wo- man’s presence, 3 new delight, such as the women of the poor had never given him. And was not she the very essence of luxury and refinement? He hated himself for it, but for all he tried to look elsewhere he kept see- ing the sparkle of the diamonds on the whitest hand he had ever seen. He enjoyed the lilies of the valley set in mosaic at her throat, which showed its creamy white against the delicate ruffles, and the comb with its band of Roman gold almost the shade of the rippling hair it restrained. But were not these the very extravagances the poor had to struggle to earn for her? He ought to be fulminating withering sentences for such as she. “I will get out at. the rocks and walk the as: of the way,” mid Curran at last, as they could catch a glimpse of Lookout in the dis- tance. “The workmen I want to talk to would hardly understand my coming with a minge and pair." 2‘ - . u n 1' AAL ._.__â€"°- ~_“ ‘ The "rwks"@e but a milo from Look- out and the horses trotted so wellthat the spotiwas rgqchedfin 01er moments more.

She almost fell, and he must needs gather her perfect form in his arms to save her. 2 Philip had been idly snapping his whip and looking up the road. He thought he saw in the distance a number of men with guns hurrying in his direction and before themâ€"yes, it must bea. dog; an odd hour of the day for hunting.

Bertha saw the great white creature, and grew pale as death, and pressed back against the rocky \ all in de- spair. Curran saw him too, and had not even to make up his mind to die to save this woman. It was a. matter of course. He stepped out directly in front of her without one word, and bending forward, waited. The maddog might pass by. But no, inan in- . stant more the beast was upon him, and like lightning Curran had reached out his hands of iron and caught his shagg throat as in a vise. The creature rose upon its hind legs and snapped ravenously at his captor, great drops ; of foam, specked with blood, dropping from ’ his jaws. lVith one rapid glance Curran saw the men with guns, running at full speed, Lnd almost at hand. If he could hold him but one moment more he might yet be saved, if those glistening teeth, distilling poison and madness. would spare his flesh one moment more. His arms and wrists were corded like a giant’s; his head thrown back to escape the venomous fangs, while he listened with fast sickening heart to the sound of approaching feet. He heard, too, the qui breathing of the woman behind him; 1: God, he could save her from such a fate, and she might think kindly of him sometimes, even if he must die like a. dog, since it was for her. But now his arms trembled with the ten-i. ble strain upon them and the dog struggled more fiercely, so that the man felt his hot, fetid breath on his cheek, and in an instant more the deadly jaws seemed closing over his arm. Suddenly there came a loud report and a. cloud of smoke, and the mangled creature fell upon the ground in his death agony. 'nxe madness had gone out of his big, brown eyes which looked up pitifully at the man he would have slain. H 2Effiey were just in time with their guns,” exclaimed Philip, rushing up and wringing his hand. But the man made no response, nor even looked around for one sign of gratitude from the woman he had risked his life for. He had no answers or smiles for the admir- ing crowd that had seemed to gather so quickly when the danger was over, but his face grew quite pale as he walked up the road. At the blacksmith’s shop a thought seemed to strike him. He hesitated a. mo- ment and then went in. When the crowd came up and followed him in, they found him before the glowing forge His sleeve was rolled up, revealing an am almost like the smith’s, but how closely he was studying it. Just below the elbow were the marks of a. dog‘s fangs, out of which slowly oozed two great drops of blood. No one dared to speak; all looked on him as a man devotod and half expected to see al- ready the signs of madness on his calm, pale face.

The lights in the windows of the poor danced out to meet the tired horses as gayly as any. There might have been a sobbing woman behind the cheeriest of them all; nature shows no sympathy for human suffering. If her poor children have no rest and joys their hearts must break; that is one o! nature’s laws. Neither can light lose its gladnefi and cheer because gladnes and cheer are so ab- surdly out of place in poverty stricken homes. Homes indeed! As it the circles that were gathered within most of those windows de- served the name of home, with never a smile of contentment to light up a face, or a. word of hope to make music for a dulled ear.

It was but two minutes more when Philip drew up short at the mill yard gata, to escape the engine which swept by with a. rush, dragged by a crowd of shouting men. The people hatless, coatless, and some even barefooted in their haste, poured out of every street and alloy way, and into the wide open gates, everybody talking and nobody listen- mg.

It took but a. few moments to reach Bertha’s home, but it seemed along time to Philip, who kept looking back over his shoulder at the flames which to his excited fancy seemed rising higher at every glance.

He heard his father‘s voice below thanking the men for their devotion. as the sullen flames seemed to give way before their tire- lem efforts. But it was no time now for idle felicitntions. The fire seemed under control, but if the mastery were relaxed, it would leap high again in its fury, andtheother mills must go too, for all they stood now so cold and proud. The smoke grew thinner in the window where Philip stood, so he could look down on the sweaty faces and bending forms of the men at the brakes. Everything depended on them, and how strong they sent the water through the hose he held, and forced back the fire inch by inch from its prey. If they could only keep it up a. few moments more the mills would be out of danger. Each stroke of the brakes made the hose throb against his side almost like a. giant’s pulse.
