It was not so bad while Mrs. Green could lake in washing, but, she is perfectly crip pied with rheumatism. Even the little which .Tack earns about this place is an object to thorn.” Just then Moltfe came in. Mo! was eighteen ; a little, fairy-1 ike girl witli eyes like bits of slimmer sky- and curls like corn-silks. The darl ing of "her parents, tho pot of all wlip knew her ; simple, loving amt tender was Mollio Ilarlin. “Papa,*’ she said, “Jack wilj soon know more than liis teacher.” . ‘Meaning yourself1” ’ ‘Yes. When I lout him all my, old school-books, and offered to help him every evening, I had no idee how he was going to devour the mb” I was just saying to your mother that Jack" ought to go to school.” “lie ought,” said Mollie, omplm- ticHlIy, “hut he can’t bo spared at home. Ho helps his father ami leads him about, and he is as handy as a woman about,lho house. Ido not- see how Mr. Green can do with out him.” Jack was riot .’it strong boy. Over* woik and poor food Inid weakened still further,,a constitution never very robust. ^nnA often, bvhon he had a leisure hohr,; AVeakpeiip was domi nant and' ho fell <asleep over his hook. ■$£$* Only a boy ! Not quite fifteen, but with the responsibility of a man on his yonrjg shoulders, and alas ! the heart of a man in his young bosom. Not for tho sako of the knowledge gained did ho spend •ev ery leisure hour pouring over his books, and, as Mollio said, “devour ing” their contents, but liqbauso his one ambition was to draw nearer to her by gaining t,lic manners and ed ucation of a gentleman. It was on a glorious summer morning tlpU Jack lmd gone to thy poat-olficO' for Mr. Ilarlin ; and having taken that genilcrmin’s mail was returning to leave tho building, when tho postmaster called him hack. I had almost forgotten to give yon your father’s letter.” ho said, placing a large envelope in the lad’s hand; ! : “I hope is Iras gbbd news in it.” “Thank you.” Jack answered, wondering wherelhe_. letter could conic front, an Mr. IIor to see what great news nad come to his mvn people. Groat news' it. proved to be—a lawyers letter, containing ' the an nonncement of : tho death/ !bf a ^ifc Green’s only brother, whn/riuYl left to him an irioomo that to the was nnbonndod wealth.''*'It' took -sonnHittlc time to foedver' frog brcathleis amazement, tot realize tlia the wonderful nows was true, but they could do, ho could do, ho told himsolf ; and so, in a tiny, cell-likc room lie pored over his hooks. Many hard problotns wore solved by patier.t and forco of will, many les sons learned by proseveranco, and difficulties conquered by earnest resolution. Alone in a great city, with . no loving eyes ta watch him, no loving heart to tremble for him, Jack stud ied with nn utter disregard of tho most ordinary sanitary precautions. Taken from mV ou t door ’Mo of so-" •vero.labor,, where-oncry muscle was kept in liotive motion, where lfpijrsi of work also included hours spent in pure* open ah*, whobe his food, scan* ty, it is true, was yot wholpRome and nourishing, ho failed to give heed to irihiiiy" Warning that, the change was too sudden, too violent for health., Shut up in a class room ftfrfive hours every day, ho refused gently hiiti:firmly to join in any of the ow tdoor recreations of his com - pauions, hnnibly pleading tho'/neccs-i sity of'constant sthdy to gain tho position ho craved in his classes., And while hisfollow-stiuleuts forgot hooks for hours, in ciioketing, boat ing, ridmg or walking, Jack shut himself up in Jvis room, and worked bis already over taxed brain until, in sboer weariness, it often refused to answer to his demands upon it.

She suffered from irlieumatio pain, and Jaek was a loy- tg, tender nurse, when at homo, saying nothing of his own restless eights and often painful Lours. It would all be well, ho told him self, when., his college honors won, he could conic borne and rest in his hitive air, lie was proud of the dearly won progress ho was making, proud to see how his fuco hud be come pule and thin, but showing thought and intellect in ’hits’ high, broad brow and large, thoughtful cyeb. .Not vain ; Unit . Jack could never be, but glad To lliiiik lie could ipproach liis jdol worthily. In four years lie hud grown from boy to man, early developed in many respects, and with a grave, gentle miinnor, better suited to forty years- pf-life than to nineteen. And in these four years ho had not once seen Mollie, though he knew from his mother she was Mollie Ilarlin still. His holidays time came in the months when prolty Mollio was with her pa re ill# »t Borne fashiouahle sum* qier rosort—a little .queen in society, by right of her own. beauty and sweetness and herjfiither’s wealth.

It was not,, a voluntary visit, but. a stern per emptory order from a physician that lmd made Jack turn his fnoo home ward. Not until compelled liy deadly weakness, had Jack consult ed a physician, and tho orders had been brief and unalterable. “Perfect rest, total cessation of study, country air and gentlo exoij- cme. No medioino!” It was tho wook after his retnvn when Ihs mother camo keeping to Mollie. , ■ ' . ;• “My poor hoy so longs to sco-you, Miss Mollio,” sho said. “Will yon —can you sec him ?” “Cqrtainly,” said Mollie, ploas-r antly, “let him oomc up this aftori noon.” i “Ah, Miss Mollie, ho can never como to you 1 Ho is dying 1” For a moment tlio girl’s heart scorned to stand still. Never boforc hail she been snmmonded to a sick; room, nover to'look on denth. “It was the books killed him,” sohhod Mrs. Greon. “Rend, read, rend ! Every diiy and half tho night!

That - pale, handsome 'man in (lie cushioned arm-chair was as.nn- dike the sun-burned boy she remem; bored as was tho cheerful room un like the dark chamber of death hoi imagination had pictured. “How kind you . are to come !” Jack’s feeble voice whispered, as lie stretched out a thin, white hand to meet tho one sho extended. •it am so sorry to find ynn ill,” «ho said, very gentle, for oven to her experience tho husky voice and cold, dummy hand seemed a derfth- kncli. “Very ill !”. he answered ; “till my hopes vain, all my life wasted,” “Oh, no !” sho cried, shocked at tho despairing tono. “But. you will hear mo,” ho said, “because I am dying.
