When the plain was passed she came to a thick wood where the rays of the sun hardly penetrated. About in the center of this wood she espied a man lying beside the road a dirty, ragged fellow with an evil face. , Stellas heart stood still for a moment. How could she pass him! "But it has to be done, thought the child. I must do it for papa," She walked bravely on towards him, without looking in his direction. But just as she was about to pass him, he rose sudden' ly from the ground. Thrusting his face close to hers, he put out his hands to seize her. She eluded him and sped away like the wind. He followed a short .space, but was soon outdistanced by Stellas swift feet. And now Rer weariness began to weigh on her spirits so that for the first time she began to consider that the doctor might He away so that she could not see him, "But Ill wait till he comes home, she said, aloud. At last the doctors house came in sight. She walked up to the door and rang the bell with a trembling hand. A servant answered her summons. He looked so tall and grand that she thought It must be the great doctor himself. He smiled at her timid question. "No, he replied, "what do you want of him? I want to see him on business, the child replied. "Im afraid you cant, he Is very busy this morning and is going out soon. "Please let me see him for a moment! "I cant possibly. Stella flung herself down passionately on the broad steps and burst Into tears. Oh, do, do let me see him! Ive walked seven miles, and oh, I want to see him so bad! The man had little girls of his own, and the sight of the childs distress touched his heart. "Ill see what I can do, he said. He went up to the doctors office and told him that there was a little girl below who had walked seven miles to see la-'de- n, TERRITORIAL officers. Caleb W.

How ' lovely all nature was, and how cruel it seemed for everything to look so radiant when human hearts were breaking.' So, at least, thought Stella Wynn, as "She lay among the tall green grass,, in front of the tiny white house, "half hidden by the woodbine that clambered ' over it. In and out among the honeysuckles flew the yellow bees, making the air drowsy with their humming, and one went close to Stellas ear, and poising himself on a flower near her buzzed loudly. The child raised her head a Oh! she cried, moment to listen. news! me is He good teTling eagerly. I hope it is about papa! But when a sadder sound came from within the house, a groan of pain, Stellas tears flowed again. For her father was very ill, perhaps dying, and no one knew what to do for him. Just seven ' miles away. In the city, lived the greac doctor who did such wonderful cures, Stella, In the innocence of her heart, had asked her mother why he did not come and cure papa. Her mother had answered with some bitterness, He cures rich people my child. It would cost more dollars than we have cents to get his help. Poor people have to die when thpy fall sick, because they have no money. Stella wished she could find some money or that she had something of her own that she could sell and get the money to pay the great doctor. "Jo, Women, sold her hair for her injLittlewhen he was ill, thought she. father, She looked at her own little yellow pig tall In disgust. It wouldnt bring 25 cents! she said aloud. In stories the heroines grandmothers always left them some valuable jewels, 'which were sold for great prices in time of need; or the old family Bible suddenly disclosed bank bills of large denominations. But her grandmother had nothing, to leave her, and she had searched the leaves of the Bible. No, there was nothing she could do for him. Oh, if Christ were only on earth! She .would walk hundreds of miles and beg of Him her fathers life! Following this thought came again that of the great doctor. Indeed, she had hardly ceased to think about him all day. She never once doubted that he would cure her father if he only came to him. ,, "Oh, thought Stella, "if mamma would only let me go to him! I know he would come, for surely a man who can cure everybody must be a good manj and must love to do it. She thought of her good, kind father, who loved her so well, and of the walks they used to take together, when he held her hand In his firm, strong grasp and told her stories as they walked along, or explained the names and uses of the flowers along their way.

When Stella really stood before him and felt that the haven of her hopes was reached her courage suddenly left her, and not one word of the little speech she had been repeating to herself all the way could she remember. How tall and stern he looked as he towered above her! But the thought of her father lying there so 111 unloosed her tongue, and, clasping her hands, she cried: "Oh, sir! My father Is dying, and I waht you to come and cure him. Oh, do come, 1 asked God to let you all the way. We havent any money, but Ill work and pay you all when I am a woman! Dr. Reynolds knew very little about poor people, and cared still less, but the child interested and touched him. "Perhaps I couldnt cure him if I went,' he said. "Oh, yes, you will," You are so good and so she replied. cure You great. everybody. The doctorx winced. He had his own private opinion about his goodness.' Stella had passed through a great deal that day, andxas she waited for his answer with her heart in her eyes she grew white, tottered, and would have fallen if the doctor had not caught her in his arms. He remembered remorsefully what his servant had told him; The child felt herself gently lifted from her feet. She hardly dared breathe when she realized that the great man was holding her in his arms. He carried her Into a more beautiful room than she had ever even dreamed of before, and laid her on a white bed. "I shall go with you, he said, as soon as I can. Lie and rest till I am ready, then I shall call you. He left her and soon after a motherly-lookin- g woman brought her such a dainty lunch. Stella ate it eagerly, for she was very hungry. She lay for awhile looking around the beautiful room, then her eyelids closed and she fell asleep. When she awoke the doctor stood beside her, and his face wore a look she did not understand. He would not let her walk, but took her In his . arms again and carried Her to his beautiful carriage. . Somehow, she lost all her fear of him ride; she told him all the during that she had on the way, all adventures about her home life and her fathers illness. He drew her closer to him when she told him how the tramp had followed her. Great was the neighbors surprise to see such a handsome carriage stop before Mr. Wynns door, and to see the great doctor step out. Mrs. Wynn was too anxious about her husband to be awed by his presence. She received him with a quiet dignity which pleased him. He examined Mr. Wynn carefully, asked many questions, then said: It is a critical case, but I think we can save him. And they did; never did man have better care than he, and when the leaves on the maples were red and gold, he was well again. Dr. Reynolds had learned many things. Stella had grown very dear to him, and he could not bear to have her loving confidence in him shaken. So it came about that many poor people were attended by the great ' doctor, while some rich ones were neglected. He gained less money by the change, but more of a sweeter, truer Joy than he had ever known before. Stella often visited him In the handsome house, and later on became very fond of the beautiful lady he chose to His little children be its mistress. learned to love her, too, and to look for her coming. One day, when she was sitting on his knee, she put her arms around his neck I love you, my doctor, beand said: cured cause you papa. He kissed her on forehead the and he resoftly I think you had plied: Indeed, Stella, as much to do with the cure as I did. It was, on your part, a Genuine Faith DORA ANNIS CHASE.
