The popping of the rifles went on for Rome two hoars, and then Judith could stand it no longer. SShe rushed out of the house with her father's field-glass, and stood on the top of a little hill near the ice-house, trying her best to make out hoiv things were 'n Mie was as white as the fold of the i;ttl ..amhric Icfrrhlrt crosd orer ,or bosom. There was a horrible weight in her heart, an aching al most past endurance in her thtoat She stood there for some moments, but could see nothing for the smoke. All at once she noticed the figure of a man running, in bold relief against the broad snow-fields be yond. A strange panic got hold npon her. What was about to happen? He came nearer and nearer, and she saw lirst that he had lost his cap. and then that he had no sword. Nearer lie came, aud nearer- He was a spleudid runner, at all events, and what was very strange, he seemed to know the approach to the house quite well. As he came near to the great clump of catalpa trees which grew on the hill-side just be low the ice-house, he stiuck out to the left. Suddenly Judith gave a cry. The field-glass dropped at her feet. She put her hands to her throat, and again that terrible cry broke from her. Twilight was setting in, but she had seen his face quite clearly. It was Dick Dick, her brother,, her i father's only son Dick, the pride of her heart her soldier a v lrginiar. She stood for an instant, her eyes never moving from the copse into which he had darted, and in that instant she made up her mind. She rushed to a long cabin some twenty yards away. Uncle Eden was inside; the poor old fellow had sprained his wrist badly some days ago, and he was sitting alone over the smouldering fire with a corn-cob pipe in his mouth A moment later he was following T.,.i:ii. ,i ii. , 4irk. , . . , Pll caiieu me triri, soiuy, "Dick! answer; it is I Judith."

Good-bye, dear Eden.n "Shrt pat one soft arm about his black neck, drew down his black nerk, drew down his loyal old woolly pate, and kissed him twice. Then she went, and left him sobbine as though his heart would break. It was a soundless gallop over the the new-fallen snow, past so many familiar places and objects. Now came the old mill, now the barn, now the pot where she and lkughton bad climed the straw-stacks that other December day. Now the leap over the mill-htream. She noticed that the niarshmallows seemed abloom again, w ith their brown cups full of snow. Suddenly thete was a Hash to one side. A saber lying on the snow. There was blood on it. Ah! the one Dick had thrown away, of course. She dismounted and took it into her 'ind, and got up again The blood was stiff with the keen air, and did not come off when she grasjed the hilt. On and on. Nearer and even nearer that sharp, incessant sound She had ridden as often on a man's saddle in her childish days as ou an other, and she had a light, beau tiful seat in her boy's clothes. Ah. yes! there they were. How the smoke hung in the still air. Some crows actually Hew cawing away, as she rode under the dead sycamote tree where they had their nest Nearer, nearer, nearer. That was what Iliutboy's hoofs, as they sud denly struck the frozen road, seem d to say to her. Then all at once came some thing close Ly her ear. The sound of a wasp alighting to sting. Another and another. Then sue realized wnat it was. Mie was within range of the" rifles. A bul let stung Hautbov's ear and he reared a little- Suddenly he swerved sharply aside. They had nearly ridden over some thing that lay on the ground. Some thing huddled, and dark, and small- looking in a gray uniform. A sort of horror got hold on her; she looked back at it again and again as she rode on. Then came another and yet another. Then some lying in this way and that, ad across one another, and then, somehow, she was in a whirl of smoke, and of noise, and of leaping blades, and Philip was beside her. And he, too, had lost his cap, and there was a great ugly gash all across his cheek, and he was saying: "Dick! You? Thank (Jod! thank God! I thought you weie killed. Come on this once will finish 'em," and then she was rushing on with Philip, and on, and on, and on And then it was red as thousrh blood had been poured into her eye?, and she could see it. And then .,, goiuen as tuougn wun a great sun set. An then came darkness un i,t terable. and the noise as of a thnn- - 7 ' - sand rivers about, and aboye, and above, and underneath her, When Boughton rode up to Cary- ion with UicK, as lie thought, on the saddle in trout ot mm, old iden was the first who met him, and in spite ot all his agony (.tor he thought or an nis agony tior ue the boy was dead) Philip help noticing, with a dull couldn't sort of wonder, now me oiu man nau agea ,. : .w. i . - TT 1 1 1 1 1 J? 1 lie shook, hi every nmu, as ue ioi lowed them upstairs, and then, when Boughton had laid down his burden on the bed, in Dick's room, turned and shut the door and went and fell on his knees beside the bed, and got hold ot the coverlet With both hands, panting rather than sobbing, like one who has run a long way Boughton stood it as long as he could, walked up and down the room, torgettul ot exhaustion in his trenien- dous excitement, then he came and sat dowTn on the edsre of the bed and put one hand on the old man's shoul- der "Don't don't, Eden' he said, un- steadily.' "He died so galiantly poor little chap I didn't know it was- in mm, he added in a hushed voice. Then cried the old man, lifting up his shaking hands with a certain un couth majesty. "Fo' Good, sah, vou mus' know you mus' know. I cyam stan tuh heah yuh call huh dat. Oh my lit- tie miss oh! my honey Mars Phil, ; sah, she tole' me not tuh tell, but yuh mus know sah. Hits right hits right Oh! Marse Phil, dat ain't Marse Dick, dat's Miss Judif herse'f herse's !" "What!" said Boughton. His blood stood still in his veins There was one ins'ant of absolute nonemty for him. And before he could speak again there rushed in itself on the bed, and moaned and wept and called the name of "Judith" manv times. And this pale figure eyes of the figure on the bed were closed. Also there was much blood in tne rea-orown cuns. And when at last the poor repent- ant creature had swooned for very gnet and norror, tfougbton pusned him aside with his foot, and called him "hound," added an ugly word back of his teeth- But when the women came to dress her again as a maiden, he was kneel- inr there beside her with his face ud- on her hand and they thought that he, too, were dead. So the days wore away, and it was Christmas Lve again when the doc- iur, vyiutuK xioux v tnat ior tne nrst time ne coma ten ihem to "hone " On Christmas morn- ing sho turned her sweet face with rflAno-nitioTi toward the half-curtain- ed window, and said: -ion 1 1 near tne oens uau; TJa a-nsTraro.1 "roa 77 It WAS All nf could say, the dear old Colonel- And then she said: "Why, it must be Christmas Dayl Ana "is time ne could only nod.

Then when he came in, his poor, weak features working piteously, she took him to her soft breast and croon ed over him, being too weak for speech. And after many words he he whispered: "OhJ Judith, darling, you have given me something I never had in my life until now." . Aud she said: " wnat, near ooy: Whereat, bending his face in her T.51 W. he sobbed out: TtTl A 1 1 IM "Courage.

Then said my Lady Tougue-, mak ing a sweet, outwark jesture with her little slender arm: "It is it is myself."
