Denny Urlin, F.S.S. IF you pAY JNCOME T A X EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, Ask yourself the following Three QuestionR: — 1. Have I been paying Income Tax upon a sum greater than my Income has actually been? 2. Am I on either of the following grounds, viz. (a) That I am exempt from Income Tax on the ground of my Income from all sources being under SIM per annum; or (b) That I am entitled to abatement, my Income being less than B500. Entitled to recover back Income Tax that I have paid or that has been deducted from Dividends. Rents, Interest, &c., paid me during the past Three Years? 3. Is it worth my while to recover back any tax I have paid and to obtain a proper assessment for the future, providing someone else will take all the trouble of getting it back and only charge me a percentage on the amount reclaimed, and nothing if unsuccessful ? If you can answer either of there questions in the affirmative, read the following carefully and then call upon or write to THE ASSOOTA%03#"WMt' "T*W0"<?E»Y OF INCOME TAX (LIMITED), Who will advise you without charge concerning the matter.

"The doctor wants to speak to you for. a moment. But he says you mustn't go into the house. We've turned it into a sort of hospital, you see. If you'd go through the other house into the garden, he'd come out by the surgery door. PH hold the pony. We sa.w you driving up jus* now. You manage him right enough. 'You haven't forgotten the lessons old James and your grandfather gave you, I can see." Wondering very much. her heart beating painfully, Elizabeth knocked at the door of her father's house, and was admitted by Susan, who remained in charge of the place. After a word or two with her, Mrs. Lineal went out into the garden. John came to her at once. He did not !hake band's with her; and he stood a few paces away. "You tJhocld not have come into the town," he sa-id. "I should have forbidden it if I had known you thought of doing so. Things are very bad here." "Are they worøe pH "Much worse. But we have got hold of a house on the other side of the town which we can use for a hospital; and I am moving all the new oases there. I shell not come to Clyde this afternoon. I want you to tell Dorothy. But don't alarm her." "She ie braver than you think." Elizaibeth eadd. "She is too brave. She would want to help us; and she must not. I could not let her take the risk." "Shall we to away ? But I do not think we could induce her to consent to that." "No, I don't suppose she would. But you must set up a sort of quarantine about you, as far as you can do it without cawing a panic- Don't let the servants even come hece. Send to Winchester rather." Elizabeth felt inexpressibly hurt at his cold, business-like tone. Had he called her inhere merely to say that to her? Could he not have written? Could he not have trusted her to take care of Dolly? His next words Showed her, however, she had' yet to learn his reason for sending for her. "Shall vou go to the Beeches to-day?" he asked abruptly. "But you go there every day, don't you?" "Yes, every day." "I cannot, go to-day. I want you to tell Lady Courtly that her husband le-ft England for Spain yesterday. He was afraid to wrrte to her lest his letters should be opened. There is a warrant out for him." "He will be sale in Spain?" "Safe as long as he stays tohare. He wants his wife to go to him. But he'll have to find a plaes in which to receive her first. I think we oould manage the journey for her; and I can trust him to look after her. She may live for years-to be an old woman." "I will tell her he is safe," Elizabeth said, moving mechanically towards the door of the house. Wa-rton kept pace with her along the winding pa/tih between the grass plots. He did not speak till they reached the'door. "Are you talcing care of yourself?" he asked her then abrupt/1 y. His voice was almost rough, yet the yearning tenderness in it fell I ke balm upon her poor heart. Nevertheless she answered him quickly, .1 ooldly-* "I aan quite well. I Susan opened the dioor for her, and there was. no time for further speech. It was a relief to them both to see the old woman at the door. Their love made a gulf between them wider than hate could have done. They could not speak frankly; they could not look into each other's faces; it was pain for them to meet, relief for them to part. She longed passionately for the day when she oould lee.ve Fordhani behind her. Shs knew now, as fully as John War ton knew, that any pretence of friendship was impossible 'between them. They must henceforth be strangers. Albsorbed in this thought, it was not till she was close to The Beeches that she remembered the message he had sent by her to Lady Courtly. She checked her pony at the gate, and beckoned to a man on the lawn to come and hold it for her. He came forward sulkily; he was a rough, sullen-looking man, whose face she did not know. "It's time somebody come to look arter her," he said, pointing with his thumb over his shoulder in the direction of the house. weren't told anything about her by tlif lawyer." Without stopping to a^k for explanations, Mre. Lineal went on quidkly to t-he house. Celine had long been gone, scared away at the fir sit hint of disaster; and the London servants had soon followed her. The only dbmestic in the house was a young country-girl for whose wages Eiiaalbeth was responsible. She came to meet her, sobbing out a pitnful story. An execution had been put into the house that .morning; and tlie men had talked of turning her mistress out of doors, ill as she was. "I wanted to send for you, Mrs. Lineal, but WM. "I wanted to send for you, Mrs. Lineal, but she would not let me." BHzaibeth went upstairs to the pleasant, pretitily-tfurnfehed bedroom. It was familiar room to her now. No day had passed since her return to Clyde that she had not spent some hours there. But there was no light of grati- tude or welcome in the hard, black eyes that turned upon, her as she entered. Grahtude could mot touch that hard', worldly, embittered heart. Elizabeth's kindness had but fed the hate which consumed her. "You will have to travel a little fart-hec if you want to see me again," she said in a harsh. uncertain tone. "To the workhouse, I fancy. I suppose that girl told you the cheerful news. She's gloating over it as such creatures do." "Yes, she told me. Bftt I was coming with a message to you, in any case," the other answered gently. "Your husband has1 started for Spain, he wants you to know. Doctor Waiton heard from him yesterday. "I wish him a pleasant journey. I always had a fanoy for Spain. So had he. He a guad enough to get away—glad to be rid of nie. "He means to send for you to join him as soon aa he can do so," was Elizabeth's answer. But Lady Courtly L-rokp into it b;tter la-usfh. "Not he, mv dear! I'm ipari of ihe burden he leaves behind; he classes me with his debts and dishonoured bills, and all the rest of it.' "You know bstter tha ntliat," Mrs. Lineal said. Bad, worthleas, unscrupulous as Sir Theodore Courtly was, there was a vein of pure gold in his nature—his love for his wife. But it is of to-day that I want to speak. You must not stay here. I want you to come to Clyde." Elizabeth liad made up her mind1 to take her there when she heard the servant's story. It seemed the only possible thing to do. But Jyadv Courtly stared at her. "I think I prefer the workhouse," she said in a tone of intense bitterness. "I wonder if I could &fW my trouble there?* She gave an .0. oddi laugh. "It's a horribly ugly thought—isn't it ? They couldn't make me work though. There is that ad/vantage in being a helpless j.og. Yes is that ad/vantage in being a helpless tog. Yes —I prefer the workhouse, thank you." Elizaibeth got up. She had ceased to argue with the unhappy woman, who had all along made a. pretence of refusing her kindnesses with scorn, while accepting them in full. "I shall send for you at once," she said gently. "You youreelf must gee that it ia t/he best thing." Dorothy and Nancy looked very blanik when Elizabeth told) them of the visitor she ex- pected. I've never been able to be properly sorry for her," Dorothy admitted. "1* seems to be to much what she deservee-no, I don't mean that exactly, either. But she is so odd and un- grateful for ail you have done for her, Eliza- beth. I believe she resents your being able to help her." "I daresay it's natural ehe should," Elizabeth ans-wered. "We must make it as easy for her as we can. I wish you would both go for a. walk this morning. Don't let her see you just yet." "I can't say I am eager to see her at all," said Dorothy gaily. Eiiaafoeth had not yet told her that John was not coming to Clyde that afternoon. It was a pity to spoil Dolly's whole day, she thought. "Then go aAvav, both of you, for a long walk. Not into Fordham, though. Go up on the moors. It will do Nancy good, Doll. She is looking pale this mofning. "Who wouldn't look pale and sallow beside Dolly just now?" said Nancy, moving away laughingly from her comrpanion'c side. "But Beas is right. You look too happy for people like poor Lady Courtly to see. Let us go upon the moors. I want a breath of fresh air." "I meant to have a long morning with Benfcly," remarked Dorothy, hesitatingly. The old nurse was busy over deiicate lawns and em- broidery for her "darling's" trousseau; and D'ollv was fond of flitting in ar:d out the nursery, pretending to help "But we'll go, Nance. I eee Elizabeth wants us to go. And I'll take a basket of good' things to those merry little children at the cottage. Let us take Guy, Elizabeth. They are such funny, rosy, happy little creatures! He'd make friends with them at once. John and I had a long talk with two of them the other day-" "It would be too far for him, dear. But take them a toy or two from him. He has too many and I dare say it will please them." "Yeti: that is a happy thought," said the joyous Dorothy, as eager to go now as she bad been loth io go a few momenta before. "Come along, Nance. I want the biggest basket I can carry. I told John last week that I ms&nt to go and see them. He said it was too far, but he doesn't know yet what a good walker I am." CHAPTER XXXIII. The basket was soon packed, and the two girls starting with i*, waving gay farewells to I Mrø Lineal, who stood and watched them from the porch. She never forgot how Dorothy looked that morning. It was the vision of her that most often came back. She had her grey dress on, and a grey straw hat with a white bird's wing in it. Her bright hair caught the sunshine as she stopped at the oorner of the house to wave her hand. Her sweet face was all aiight with hope and happiness. She waed her hand and was goue. How little she and Elizabeth guessed what their next meeting W($be new«B|<J!ay to the moors was through the ø"?-?" ?- woods and up the steep path across the pastures leading to the stile in the old stone wall. They had just left the woods when they saw the postman coming towards them. "How vrry uninteresting the postman is to me now!" said Dolly. "And how I used to watch for Donald at Macnaanar! But perhaps he has a letter from your mother. Nancy." "I don't think so," returned that young lady rather listlessly. "We heard from her two days ago." Nancy felt as little interested in the post- man's approach as Dorothy did. There was no one whom she cared to hear. Even when the old posttmon stopped and fumbled in his bag, she had very little curiosity about the letter he said he had for her. "Im sure, it's here. I put it along with the rectory letters, seeing as how they'd got another like it. It's one of those furrin post-marks. Yes—here 'tis, miss." And he held out a thick letter with a Biitish North American stamp upon it. addressed in Tom Jowett's square hand-writing It was Dorothy who thanked the postman for thi letter. Nancy stood dumb, amazed, frightened, staring down at Tom's writing. Dolly walked with the postman as far as the gate leading into the woods, and then came baok to her companion. She found her standing oxactlv where she had left her, with the un- openfd letter in her hand. "Ns-rcy!" Dorothy s graire voice might have befitted a person fifty years Miss Beynolds's senio-. "Don't be so foolish! Read the letter." Nancy looked at Tier. "1 can't. I am frightened." "Let me read it for you." Nancy quickly put it behind har, however; and Dorothy laughed. S'te felt sure the letter meant happiness for Domthy Reynolds. Well, I -,vn\ going on to the stile. I shall rest there for a minute of two. If you don't oo-me aivl reil me what the letter says, I shall think you don't trust me a bit." She went on and seated herself upon the stile with her back to her friend and her face towards the moors. At the opposite side of the road. over another stile, was a path winding upwards to the top of tbe ridge- Just below the ridge, on its farther tfide, W'IIoS the lonely cottage for which the girls' were bound. A minute, three minutes, five minutes passed; but Dorothy sat patiently on the stile- She was content to sit and wait there in the sunshine. After m. while she heard Nancv's swift foot- steps. Their quick. lisrlit sound was enough to tell her that the letter had brought joy with it. Slowlv she turned her bright mischievous laughing face towards bpr friend. "Well ?" There was no smile on the face she looted at. but there was an expression of intense, unlooked for. but Aubdued joy. Nancy leaned against the stile. The letter was m her hand. "Dolly, he did write to mil He wrote before I wrote. He thought niy letter was an answer. And I never received his letter. It was lost, mislaid, and has only just gone back to him. And he has sent it to me now. He knows I never received it- He understands how, how-" And the poor girl broke into happy tears. There were tears of sympathy in Dorothy's eyes. "I knew it would come right," she said; and she kissed her friend tenderly. "I was sure of it all the time. Ob, I believe in previsions of that sort!" "Nancy shook her head, and held her letter a little tighter. She had no belief in pre- visions for not the faintest foreshadowing had come to her of the happiness that was awaiting her that morning. I "I must tell Bess," she said presently. We won't go to the oottage this afternoon, and I II must tell Bessy." "No no!" exclaimed the other, smiling. l'I am not going to turn back. Go and tell Eliza- beth, certainly, and spend the rest of the morn- ing with your letter." Nanoy did not urge her friend very strongly to turn back with her. She was eager to be alone vokh her letter. And, after a little more •talk, Dorothy went ararly up the moorland path alone, tarrying her basket, and leaving Nancy to return to the house. It was a solitary path she followed. The only house it led to was the little moorland cottar. Bevond the cottage the moor stretched awav for miles and miles towards the great hills that roue along the eastern horizon. When she had reached the top of the ridge, she seated herself for a little rest on a flat, mossy stone. which seamed to have been placed there for the eon- (veirienee or She wa« in no hurry. [The lonsr golden hour? of the morning were all before her. It was pleasant to sit there in the sunshine and think her happv thoughts. The place was very e;.Ient. A lark was singing its dOrinip•orK' somewhere above her; the gentle breeze faintly stirred tihe sorse and bracken But there were no other sound*. The little white cottage had no merry children inlayinnr round it; the donr was shut; the thin line of blue smoke from the dhunney W'a8 the only sign of habita- tion to he seen. She noticed this silence at last, and beg-an to fe«r that tfce fanvilr miKt all be awav. anl that she had had her iournev for nothing. But a moment later the door opened, and a man oame running up the hill towards her. At first Dorothy thought it wa* to her he bent his footerteps: but. M he oame near. she saw that he was quite una.ware of her presence. He was jralKng now. hia breath was gone. b.° could run no more, but he wo- labouring upward* w:th top-T, uneven strides, his white face streaming with perspiration from the effort he was making. She jumped up and approached him. Shp had not. recognised him for a moment, but now she flaw that it was the father of the little children who had so taken her fancy. "I am jus* going to your house," she said. "I'm afraid you are in troubl:e ? Do you re- member me-^Miw Lineal?" He put his hand up to his furrowed brow, staring at her. "I'm going to feiMi the doc+c- to mv missus." he said, in a choked voice. "She's took worse, T can't do nothing with her. And our Tim died in the night: and Jock's like to die." A great sob broke from the man as he snoke. He had not wept before: but the look of deep womanly sympathy on Dolly's face was too much for him. ( "You musn'4 go to the cottage, miss!" he said; for she had moved as if to go at once. "It's the fever, that's what 'tis. I won't deceive you. Tim got it at school; and Ja^k took it; and now my missus is down with it. I'm going to fetch the doctor- And maybe, I'll get somebody or other in the town to come and help us. But it's the fever, you see. Folks be so affrighted at it." "Haven't you a nurse with your wife asked the girt. "We couldn't get anybody to come. its the fever," repeated the man, iu a dull tone. "No, miog-Tou musn't go. Doctor would never (forgive us if you otught it. And he's been ?;.? --? kind as kind can be." "Of course, I'm going to look after your wife!" aaid Dorothy anpiulsivtly. "Doctor Wharton would be the first to tell me to go. Hurry on to the town. I'll take care of her •while you are away. I wish we had known before of the trouble you are in." And, with- out listening to further words, she hurried down the hill. "I couldn't keep her back, sir," the ccttagsr told the doctor, when at last he had found him at the hospital. "And it just seemed as if Providence had sent her to us. sir. I thought last night Heaven had forsaken us altogether. It was as if I'd met an angel, sir—meeting her, sir." It was afternoon before Dr. Warton could reach the cottage. DoBy met him at the door. As John looked at her face he thought of what the man had said of her. "Dolly, my child, you should not be here!" he said. with tender reproach. I But she only smiled at him. "You dont mean that. John. I ought to haive been helping you before. You should have told me how much need there was of help. I have 'been very selfish." She led the way into the cottage. The mother and siik child were upstairs. Two other chil- dren. one evidently in the first stage of the fever, orouched on the mat before the fire. Tim —laughing merry Tam, the flower of the flock— lay still and peaceful on the bed in the little I front upper room, his hands folded over the snowdrops Dolly had gathered and placed tihere. "She will recover," John said to Dolly when he came down from his examination of the patients. "Little Jock too, I hope, if he has great care. The poor woman's sister is coming to act as nurse. I saw her just now. She will be here this evening. And the children must go to bhe hospital. Her husband consents to that: for we can look after thera properly -there. There is not room in ths hou^e." Doily had the youngest child ia her arms, rooking it. "Jock and this one she said. looking down at the little flu-he'1 fiace against her breast. "I'm afraid she is ill too." Her lover opened his eyes widely. "I should hope nClt he said simply. "But you must let me be tifraid for you. You must run no more risks, little girL" Dorothy, for answer, held the little child rather closer to her. "John. you must let me go to the hospital to help there!" "Impossible!" he ejaculated. "Yes—you must let me go. I mean it. John. I wrote to Elizabeth just now. For Guy's sake I must not go back to Clyde and I do not think I shall ever be really happy apain if you do not let me help. I have made this poor cottager tell me how bad the fever is in the town. John, you must let me help!" "W'il'l you be able to bear it?" he said huskily. Her words and look touched him to the heart. "It will be hard work. littqe girl. Are you strong enough ? Doily, I don't think I oan let you do it! "You promised me I should always help you," she persisted. "Don't you remember, John? And I can be of use at the hospital. You yourself told me I ought to have been a nurse. And I am strong. You don't know how strong." He looked down at her stedfest/ly, with a deep, sad expression which she could not read aright. He was thinking that if he had really loved her he would ha-ve been less careful of her—he would have claimed her services day. j ^—— before. For the need was very great. And what right had he to try to keep her back! "Dolly, you shall do as you wish," he said. "For Wf do want suoh help af yours very iDadly. This house vs only one among many • But you must be wise and obedient. There must be no overwork. You must take proper Care of yourself. St is only on those conditions I can consent. And I shall be often there to look after you." As if Dorothy Lineal had not thought at that! She was eager to help: 6be would iwwe been as ready to go to the hospital if it had meant separation from Joha as entirely a- it did from Nancy and Elizabeth; yet the know- ledge that she should often see him there pro duced a blissful warmth a.bout her heart as she entered the newiy-fitted hospital that night to begin her duties as nurse. CHAPTER XXXIV. It was three weeks later. The epidemic had abated. The hospital, which had been so full when Dorothy entered it was emptying fast. No new cases came to takes the places of the convalescents, and the patients still there were rapidly recovering. A iitrtie paler and thinner, but with a wonderful restful happy look she sat alone in tthe little sitting-room aMotated to the nurses. She was to leave the hospital the next day. Her aunts, with whom she vu to spend a week or two before her marriage, shrank from re- ceiving her straight from the hospital, and for a little while ehe w&s to stay at Brighton, It had been arrangoed in the first place that Bentley and Nancy were to accompany her; but that plan had fallen througlh; Dorothy did not exactly know why. Flossie Jowett, who had also -been working in the hospital was now going with her. It was Flossie who came into the little sitting- room with a. (basket of beautiful flowers in beT hand. Such a basket had been sent from Clyde to Dolly every day. "Here are your flowers, Dolly. Bentley brought them to-day. S'he wiantbs you to go to the window and let her look at you. She won't be able to come to-morrow." Dolly, who had been old Nurse Bentler's spoiled darling alll her life, felt just a trifle sore that her old nurse could 1st her go to the seaside without a< wmpanvin# her. It seemed a little hard that young Guy. her half- brother. should have wurped her place so entirely. Perhaps Nancy was really wanted to help to wait on Lady Courtly; but Bentley—she could not be wanted too. It was only for a tew seconds that she gave way to these reflections; and she would have laughed at the idea of Ibe4ng jealous of little Guv. But still she was a trifle jealous. Flossie shrewdly saiw exactly what was passing in 'her friend's mind as she got up rather languidly from her seat, and went into the con- valescent ward, the windows of which looked out upon the garden. "Why don't they tell her?" she thought, ra/bher impatiently. "Such concealments never do any good! If Dr. Warton had not been so emphatic about it, I would have told her myself." "Dorothy came back looking very grave. She sat down again and took up her --in but in a moment or tv.-o she put it down again. "Flossie, was Bently crying when she gave you the Sowers ? Do you know oi anything that its troubling her?" "Aren't you going away?" "But she could have gone with me if she wanted to. Besides, she doesn't cry so easily j as that. She '6 a Yorkshire woman, and thinks shame of tears. But she was crying this morn- ing; I saw her as she went out of the gate. I am sure there must be something the matter at Clyde." "You had better esk Dr. Waiton." "He hasn't been there lately. He told me last week that Dr. Hockley trais visiting Lady Courtly, as he wag too busy to go out there.' "Last week isn't this week, Dolly!" Dorothy gave her a piercing look. "What do you mean, Flossie? Why, JohM would have been oerbafin to tell me if he'd beeir there He know, how anxious I am to heai about them ail. What do you mean ? Do you know anything I don't know?" Flossie was in a difficulty. She had pledged herself to keep a certain matter from Dolly, and now had almost revealed it. AjMl who over- did her part m trying to make her friend believe that her remarks had noohinc mysterious behind them. "As you have just saod. dear, wouldn't the doctor be certain to tell you if there was any- thing the matter ? And you cam ask him this afternoon." "He is not coming- this afternoon. He told me so just now. He is too busy with other partiieiatts," isaad Dfcxrothy, fttill unoonwiooed. "Flossie, do tell 1M! I am sure you know why; Bently was crying." "And if I did know, you obstinate person, I shouldn't tell you, when your rightful guardians and owners don't. No, it is no good looking at me wihh those beseeching eyes-I haven't any- thing to teft you! and it is time for you to relieve Sister Prudence. Go and say good-bye to your children; for you won't be in that ward again to-day." Dolly looked at the dock. "Yas, I must go," she said, starting up. "And you won't tell me? Ie Elizabeth ill ?" "Perfectly well. I betieve," answered Flossie drily. "The Sister is looking at her clock, and wondering why amateur nurses are always so unpunctual. Doll. Do go!" And Dorothy went- But as she hurried towards the children's ward a plan fonned itself in her mind which she determined to carry out that afternoon. Sister Prudence received her with a elanoe at the clock and the quiet superior profesmonai air which she oould make so full of meaning. "You are not looking well, Miss Lineal. The strain is telling on you. I am glad you axe leaving us to-morrow." Dotly knew she was not looking well. and had felt for a day or two that the strain was telling on her; and that morning her limbs were very heavy, and her head was swimming and oonffused; but she keenly resented the Sister's pointed rem.arics-rema.rb levelled not so much at her a.s at the whole class of volun- tary helpers.
