(;ol evening, sir.' And, raising Itis
ftra.e cap, the doctor walked slowly
ant with dligniity awlay, leaving Perry
too urrii.;tul to sIt.ak.
"The colon,l told hint to tell rne!" was
Perry':, wondering sIilouty at last.
"TnnI supl,l>se he ntnst haveo told the
chief >one story to account, for his being
vawv." It was pretty evident, from the
young fellow's inani rr as he entered the
ionuse that the ;tory was not ono which
strucl hiirin as being entitled to conli
deciie or cionsiderationt.
On the ta,lo in hii little sitting room
liv a dainty note. It was not the first
he lt,l re('ived uitler that supers<rip
tion, and he had not becen t;low\ to opeti
anl 1:0d thent. If anything, the cloud
111 n his foreheal seetmel to deepcen at
sight of it. He picked it up, I11tked nit.
lati,-ntly at the address, hesitated a Imo
inent, tossed it back on histdesk and went
into the inner roonl. 1Iu would not read
it now; it was :hniost parade tinte; he
hald to hathe and chanige his dr"ess, for
after parade Ite was to din at the cluarters
of an infantry friiend, and ('apt. and1
Mrs. I,awlrence wete to be of the party.
Already it was noted that whien any of the
few infantry people at the post gave a
little tea cir dIlliner at wIch 11only eight
or ten were -:i.Iiered togetlher, the 3ekl
kuaps were not invited on the saie even
ing with 31r. 1'erry, and vice versa. When
l'ar"ke cane in, whistling and singing
and hanging doors and making all man
ner of uncoulth noiso in the exuberance
of his spirits, he bolted into Perry's do
main, as wa";s his wont, and begin a rat
tling comment on the events of the day.
"13y the way," hol broko in, suddenly,
"we caii't both go to-morrow; and I sui
post) you11 walt to,"
"Go0 where?"
"Why, out with (lie hounds; to-mor
row's the day, you know."
Perry g:t\ve a whistle of perplexity.
The coltinel had il tinised1 the ladies that
ther shtold he :a run tihi s very week.
All thie Ilec' hiotnis of the caivalrv bait

"You dlon't mean to 'say you had for
