The Lecturer and Kit walked rapid- ly through thegwhitd deserted streets till they reached a tall house in a fashionable quarter. Mr. Bisset stop- ed before it. The windows were dark, ut a little faintslight came from the hall, filtering through the! ground- lass of the fanlight and revealing La number. It was 52, and the fig- ures will recall things high as heaven, warm 'as the Forgiving Love to many hearts. - There are hundreds of us who will never forget Number Fifty- two till the sods rattle down'above our breasts. From this point Mr. Bisset's pro- ceedings were not only singular but even suspicious. He went off into the middie of the road and groped about in the thin snow till he had collected a handful of pebbles the size of peas. These he began to throw up at the range of a hted windows with but indifferent success. "Which window do you want to hit?" said' Kit, feeling that here at last was something that he could do|; better than his companion. "The second on the left above the porch," said the Lecturer, "Whose house is this?" s=aid Kit, making the pebbles rap regularly on the glass of the window which Mr. After a little a light Song into being behind the blind. window was thrdwn up, and a face appeared dimly white against the dark behind. "Well, who is it?" said a voice, as if quite accustomed to such midnight summonses. "Oh, Bisset, bless you, affords benefit as well as pleasure. Healthful exercise for the teeth and a spur to digestion. A long. lasting refreshment, soothing to agrves and stomach. .!

"He was one of my people. - But the wife is a CHristian and needs you. Last house on the right in the Tinkler's Close off the Grassmarkét--you know the place." "All right! I know it!"

"Come along, Bisset--talk to meas we go," said Alexander Strong, swing- about his shoulders and thumping the pavement with his Bishod, staff. "But who'is this with you?" "Another. of your people," said the} Lecturer, "a, lad from the country, recently come to the city with a bur sary, a clever head, and an ignorant heart. ' Let him come and see you. You'll 'do him no harm. He has a father, too, he was telling me. But T think I can best look after him." lunch time; and we will 'have a talk. That is % hour!" said Alexander Strong to Kit, Then to the Lecturer he said, #And now for your friend's wife. What had we best do' for her?" And "there in the black deff of the night, under the canopy. of the drift- ing-snow, the Agnostic Lecturer and the Christian Teacher conjointly laid their plans for the helping of poor hu- man creatures, In this fashion they came again to the cobbler's house. Once more they went up the darksome twists of the star, Alexander Strong trampling between them with his vigorous hill- man's stride. ™ As they opened the door they heard the sound of a woman's sobbing. The cobbler's wife was straightening the | Hmbs of the man who had' been her husband.

Without a word he went across the floor to the bed, and stood a long while gazing down at the serene face of the dead. The Infidel Lecturer Jew Kit away, and as they closed the door they heard the voice of the Preacher of the Gos- pel saying gently, "Fear not! Itiis or falleth. Yea, he shall be made to I'stand; for the: Lord "hath power to! make him stand."

He could mot stop 'attending his classes and 1d back to service, because he had taken the money of the So- cieties, and was under contract to fin- ish his: session and forward his cer- tificates to the Secretary. . {He "could" not go on living upon Mrs. Christieson with no prospect of payin & his bills. till, less eould he accuse his teach- ero, his benefactor--his father, of the] theft. 'If he had taken the money, he was clearly not accountable for his actions any more than he had heen | that night of the declaration of the rize-winner, when Kit had found him n the parlor of the Blue Boar in Cairn Edward. So, throwing his plaid about his shoulders, and putting down the gas: he had no longer the right to waste, Kit Kennedy went and stood in the window. And all through the watches of the sombre night the white flurries veered and swirled, and the lamp sha- dows wavered forlornly across the; sidewalks of the snow-shrouded city. CHAPTER XLVI THE PRETTY GIRL GROWS BRACTICAL. Kit had ten days before him during which ta make good the loss of his bursary. Then he must settle with Mts.

His classes had hummed pounded startling posers on the rules of "Greek composition, which Kit had answered at Tandom. But it was Professor Aitchison who stung him into a sort of temporary interest, and that more on account of feeling. Professor Aitchison: embodied patri- otism to the university. Picturesque- ly Bohemian himself, he encoura, al 'manner of vagabondage among his students: If these, fortunate youths did not learn much Greek, at least they riever forgot their acquaintance with that fine, impulsive, clean- thoughted,-noble gentlem@in; Professor Angus Aitchison of the University of Edinburgh.
