the earth very dreary, and they are very tired. for “their grave- rest is far to seek." One of their, number. little Alice died last year. Her grave is free from toil. and no one will call for her to get up early to go to work. When asked to go out and enjoy life. ghgy reply, “Are your cowslips of the meadows like our weeds anear the mine?" As far as meadows go they would only be useful for the children to drop down in them gnd sleep.

They say that "their knees tremble sorely for the stooping. we fall upon our faces trying to g3. and underneath our heavy eyelids drooping, the reddcst flower would look as pale as snow." This tells the story:

‘Tor all the day we drag our burden tiring.

Through the coal-dark under-

ground Dr, all day. we drive the wheels of iron ln the factories, round amt round."

And all day the wind from the droning wheels comes in their faces. Everything seems to turn "our hearts, our heads, the walls. the sky, even the black flies that crawl across the ceiling-all are fuming",- and they with all. All ls so noisy and they say to the wheels. "Stop be silent for today!" But all day the iron wheels go round. They 'ask, “Does God care?" "ls it likely that He with the angels singing round Him. hears our weeping any more?"

There are two words of the Lord's Prayer which they remem- ber ‘Our Father." They feel that if He really heard He ,would say: "Come and rest with Me. my child.“ But no He does not hear; and we hear this l-lis image is the master who makes us work so hard, Do not mock us we have looked up for God, but tears have made us blind. "This re- minds us of Omar who said the sky was "like an inverted bowl Lift not thy hands to it for help." These children meantime doubt both God's possible and the world's loving." They have never seen the sunshine, they sink in man's despair, are martyrs by the pang without the palm are worn. arc “orphans of the earthly love and heavenly-let them weep. let them weep!" -

They seem to ask:

"How long, 0 cruel nation, Will you stand, to move the world on a child's heart,— . .. Our blood splashes upward, O our tyrants, And. your purple shows your Dal . But the child's sob crieth deeper in the silence

Than the strong man in his

wrath.

This was really a "cry". and it came from s heart that felt for the hard, overworked children of England, and. for that mat- ter, of the world. While there are no such conditions now-thanks to spirits like that of Mrs. Brown- ing. we can trace the idea back to Him who took little children in'his arms and blessed them and said to strong wind-tanned men that they must have the child- heart if they would ever enter his kingdom.

He picked up the bags and went down the stairs. Standing with her hands on her throat, which was closing and choking her s0 that she could not move or speak and could hardly breathe, Eleanor heard the front. door closing and then the sound of tho gadget- ridden car in the avenue.

Later that night a Negro man brought the car book. Cameo, who answered the doorbell, brought Eleanor a note. “Sorry I had to borrow your car. but I had the tank filled. Kester."

For a week Eleanor heard noth- ing more from Kester, then she received a note four lines long telling her he was working st the Government cotton station up the river. He did not write her again. She could not tell if his silence was s. weapon he was deliberately using to hurt her or if he merely had nothing to say.

Eleanor had never been more un- certain or more wretched. for never had she had such a blow to her self-respect. Whether Keatlr-‘a hand or her own had been heavi- est in dealing it she could not de- cide. All she knew was that Kes- ter had walked out of Ardeith and she had no way to tell if he had any intention of returning.

She wrote him a letter beginn- ing, "The children ask for you a dozen times a day." and then tore it up. It was true, the children did ask for him. but that was a. bludgeon she would acorn herself for using and he would scorn her herself for using and he would scorn her for attempting it. She pacified Cornelia and Philip by telling them their father would be back soon. To other inquiries she said Kester was at the cot- ton station lip-river, and said it so crisply that before long she was receiving no more questions. With a fierce desire for privacy, she went about as usual. willing to discuss any subject on earth but her personal life. a

Then. vaguely and tormentingly. she began to be aware that her affairs were not private. At first the rumor was like a cobweb that one brushes away on a dark street. not sure whether one has en- countered s cobweb or a trick of the shadows. But though she tried to believe it was a figment of her strained imagination she began to feel like a schoolgirl aus- pecting that everybody but her- self was sharing s secret.

Eleanor had promised to go to a tea at Bilverwood in honor of Clara's sister, Mrs. Maynard, who was coming down from Baton Rouge on a visit. The tea was placidly uninteresting until dur- ing a lull in the conversation Mrs. Maynard asked innocently “What's Isabel Valcour doing these days? Is sha still in town?"

Clara answered hastily, "Oh. yes, she's still in town," and as she said it her face pinkened and she began urging kviolet to play the piano. Two or three others joined, fluttering as if to oover the embatrasam ‘ of a guest who had upset the gravy on the table- cloth.

These occurrences were too fre- quent for her to overlook them; all she could do for the sake of her own dignity was pretend not to notice them.

Late one morning during the first week of December Cousin Sylvia rnads Eleanor a visit. Eleanor was surprised when Cameo smnmoned her to the parlor. for the day was raw and gloomy with mist. hardly a time to be chosen for a round of teremonious calls. Her knowledge of Sylvia sug- gested that it was more likely to have chosen so a day when one could be sure of finding the ob- ject of 0H9’! effort-s alone by her own fire. and as she descended the stairs Eleanor was buckling on an armor af unoonce .- against the pricka of Sylvia's lance. She entered the parlor smiling bright- ly. "Why, Cousin Sylvia, how good of you to drop in! And in this dolsful weather, too."

“I've been so wanting to no you. Eleanor dear." Sylvia clasped Eleanor’: hand ardently. -

Eleanor exclaimed. “Your hands

are oold. I'm sure you'd like a

hot cup of coffee. wouldn't you?" "How nice of you!" said Sylvia. For a few minutes they sipped coffee and discumed poinsettias. After a Mills Sylvia remarked that everyoneb garden would be full of weeds after this wet spell. "But you don't work your own ilowcm, do you?" she asked.

"No. l have a man for that." Eleanor, watching Sylvia across the coffee pot, wondered how long it was going to take her to coma to the direct questions Sylvia was evidently yearning to have an- swered. "My dear." murmured Sylvia, "I have been thinking of you a great deal recently."

"ll-ow kind‘ you." said Eleanor. Sylvia looked around the room and then at Eleanor slain. "I hsveflwsnted to come to see you before, dear child," the continued. "But I have 1N9 it off. Sometimes 0110's duty is norcleer. It is dif- tioult to bring up unpleasant problems. evén from the loft-lest of motives. And yet, I am convinced {should speak uryou. For your own good, Eleanor." lleanor listened. lifllsfldlfls a sweet tmpassivity while inwardly she burned with resentment.

“We were so happy when you informed her at length. "And yet this and I would be tho last to tell you except that the time has come when it seems risht to sank frankly-Alters wsa some stir-prise." "Was there?”

"Indeed yes, my dear. Of course you are startled. You are a love- ly, well-educated girl. and your people are most deserving, but
