"Marse Hugh/' he said, his voice shaking with eagerness, ''here's one 'sides me what's glad to see yo'. She sabed yo ' life dat day yo ' thought y o ' horse jest strayed off from Lambert's." Uncle Tom disappeared, and Hugh stared at Jennie in amazement. The purplish-blue eyes were soft and shining, but they fell before Hugh's gaze. Something neAv was tugging at the man's heart. The words Jennie had spoken when he last saw her came back to him, and he realized now how often he had thought of them. "However you come, we will be glad if you are only safe," she had said.

A wife, perchance, about to fly With some enticing knave, Is shown that folly only leads To sorrow and the grave — And many an erring youth is stopped Upon his downward way, And many a hardened heart grows soft To see the Photoplay.
