wee baby, and then he--he--"

"He went to Heaven, papa!" says Thor, recovering himself.

Hereupon there was a silence, because the two children, glancing up in
their father's face, saw that it was grave and thoughtful.

But suddenly the little girl pricks up her small ears, and scrambles
to the carpet, and sets off for the door at full speed, without a
word. Thor is close behind, but just too late to be first in opening
the door.

"Mamma! mamma!"

And Balder Helwyse springs up, and as she enters with the rejoicing
children at each hand, he meets her with the thrilling smile which, in
this world, she will never see!

THE END.
