After a pause she continued: “I went to Martha’s—went with a pain in my heart I had never felt before. I was willing to do anything so as not to be a burden. But that wasn’t it. they were ashamed of my bent old body and my withered face—ushamed of my rough wriakled hands—made so toiliog for them—”’

The tears came thick and fast now. The stranger’s hand rested caressingly on the gray bead,

“At last they told me I must live at « boarding-house, and they'd keep me there. I couldn’t say anything back, my heart was to full of pain. I wrote to John what they were going to do. Ile wrote right back, a long, kiad letter for me to come right to him. I al- ways hada home while he had a roof, he said. To come right there and stay as long as I lived. That his mother should never go out to strangers. So I am going to Joha. He’s got only his rough hands and his great warm heart —but there’s room for his old mother, God bless him—”

The stranger brushed a tear from her fair cheek and waited the conclusion.

Some day when lam _ gone where I

will never trouble them again Mary and Martha wili think of it all. Some day when the hands that toiled for

them are folded and still; when the eyes that watched over them during maby 2 weary night are closed forever; when the little old body, bent with the burden it bore for them, is put away where it can never shame them—”

The agent drew his hand quickly across his eyes and went out as if to look for the train. The stranger’s jew- elled fingers stroked the gray locks, while the tearsof sorrow and the tears of sympathy fell together. The weary heart was unburdened. Soothed by the touch of sympathy the troub'- ed yielded to the longing for rest, and she fell asivep. The agent went nois essly aboat his duties that he might} not wake her. The fair stranger watched, she saw a smile on the care- worn face. The lips moved, she bent down to hear.

“I’m doing it for Mary and Martha. | They'll take care of me soma time.”

She was dreaming of the days inthe little cottage, of the fond hopes that in- spired her, long before ske learned with a broken heart, that some day she would be turned homeless on the worlds, —to goto John,—Lu B. Cake, in the Current.
