IN THE CAMP OF THE DESERTER.
Three days passed, but before they ended there came another telegram from Mrs.Crozier stating the time of her expected arrival at Askatoon.
It was addressed to Kitty, and Kitty almost savagely tore it up into little pieces and scattered it to the winds.

She did not even wait to show it to the Young Doctor; but he had a subtle instinct as to why she did not; and he was rather more puzzled than usual at what was passing before his eyes.

In any case, the coming of the wife must alter all the relations existing in the household of the widow Tynan.

The old, unrestrained, careless friendship could not continue.
