Greyfield's state of feeling on this head. "I fell into a state of confirmed melancholy, reproaching myself severely for not having searched the continent over before stopping to dig gold! though it was for you I was digging it, and our dear boy, whom I believed alive and well, somewhere, until I received Mr. Seabrook's letter.
I will get it," interposed Mrs. Seabrook's voice, just behind them. "Dorrie hungry!" she added, wonderingly. She had heard Mrs. Minturn's request, and hurried out to convince herself that she was not dreaming. "Yes, so she says," said Mrs. Minturn, smiling serenely into the questioning eyes, "and when her breakfast is ready I think she will prove the truth of her words to you."
There was a still stronger odor of burning cloth and wood in the lower rooms, but very little smoke to be detected. After looking into the kitchen and finding all right there, I feared the fire might be in the other part of the house, and was about to give the alarm, when it occurred to me that the trouble might be in Mr. Seabrook's room.
I've a great mind to tell Seabrooke to look in his trunk before he locks it. Perhaps he has put in something to explode or do some harm to the things in Seabrook's trunk or to himself." Charlie was a nervous child and rather imaginative, and was always conjuring up possibilities of disaster in his own mind.
"I am not 'annoyed, I assure you," Katherine replied, flushing again under his regretful glance. "Miss Reynolds, being a teacher, does not come under the ban; but I desire to respect Prof. Seabrook's wishes under all circumstances." "All honor to so loyal a student, and I will henceforth govern myself accordingly," smilingly returned the gentleman, as he again doffed his hat to her.
"Anything anything that will spare my child to me and save her suffering," burst impetuously from William Seabrook's lips. "You have heard of Christian Science?" "What!" demanded the astonished principal of Hilton Seminary, sitting suddenly erect and bending a look of scorn upon his companion. "You suggest such an absurd alternative as that to me, and for such a case as this!"
Seabrook's tremulous lips failed her again, as she softly touched the girl's bandaged hand. "It is almost nothing now," said Katherine, brightly. "I am fast forgetting it myself, and want everybody else to. Does Dorrie know?" "No; my brother thought it best not to tell her." "I am glad; pray keep it from her if possible." "But is it not very sore? Are you not suffering?"

"'Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent and hast revealed them unto babes," quoted Phillip Stanley to himself, as he stooped to recover a spool that rolled from Mrs. Seabrook's lap. At the same moment the sound of wheels fell upon their ears; the next, a carriage stopped before their door and a stalwart figure leaped to the ground. "Papa!"
"Yes what I did was well, you may call it prayer, if you like. But I think we must not talk about it because of Prof. Seabrook's command, which I am inclined to think I may have already broken in the letter if not in the spirit," said Katherine, gravely. "Well I don't know. It all seems very queer to me!" Sadie observed, reflectively, as she slipped out of bed and began to dress.
