There Is a moment In my life that I

The seeing of my own individual ?e'f
In duplicate
I was sitting at a typewriter In an
office where I was at the time employ
ed. and. happening to look ont Into the
court, there on the other side of the
quadrangle at a window one story t>e
neath me stood my own individual per
son. The only difference between my
other self and me was la the dress. I.
sitting at my typewriter, was in plain
office costume; I in the other part of
the building was richly clad In street
dress.
I dropped my work, rose from my
seat and, pale and trembling, went to
my employer nnd asked to be excused

for the rest of the day. Jie saw by
my appearance that something of mo- I
aeat had happened and at on.-e grant- !
?l my request, ne asked me if i
would tell him vrhat had troubled mo
and I said:
"Shortly before coming to your em
r.oy J suffered a nervous breakdown
and passed several months In a sanl
tarlam. I was discharged as perfect
IX well, bnt a few moments ago I s?f
fered a relapse."

te ! yon what I saw. It was some
""ntr ordinary, but It was awfnl ?
Now. my employer. Edward Wheeler,
had treated me since I came Into his
service with great consideration In
deed. it seemed to me at times that I
was becomlnc more to him than mere
ly his tyi>ewriter. We were In his prl
vati' office with no one else present
and seeing that I needed soothing, he
spoke to me in a quiet rolce, taking
my hand in his. The touch rather thrn
the words quieted me. Placing me In
an easy chair, he said:
"Tell me more about this matter "
1 told him how I had seen myself at
an opj?oslte window
Ho attempted to reassure mo by say
In#: that I had seen another person I
told him that If this was the explana
tion there would hav? been some dlf
^e two, however
s ieht. W as It not more reasons Me to
suppose, since I had suffered from
similar visions before, that this one
was the effect of a physical weakness?
He did not assent to this, but rv
ft-alned from arguing with me, saying j
that If I desired It he would call a car
rage and send me home, but he
thought It would be better for me to
<K*npy my mind with mv work If I
had had any relative In the world anv
home to go to. I would have declined
his advice. As It was I accepted it
He recommended my remaining whe e
I was for awhile, and as there was a
comfort in having him near me I was
el.nl to do so. He handed me a news
paper. then went on with what work
he had l>efore him. I sat there for half
an hour, during which persons came '
and weut. Then, feeling better. I re
turned to my desk and to work.
Mr. W heeler did not mention this
matter to me again for several davs;
; then one morning when standinc in
side me with some papers he wished
me to copy, looking out Into the court
he said:
"At which window did you Bee vour
double?" I
T pointed to the window, but he made
| no further remark and, turning, went
1 away.
Very gradually my vision, as I called
it. censed to trouble me. or. rather,
??ame more and more rarely Into my
mind, and when It did I was letter
Q '.e to put It away from mo. I had
lulte recovered when one dav I saw It

me, reflecting my own look, and that I
: was again seised with terror, it must
| be remembered that I was In an over
strung condition. It is easv for a nor
mal person to say. "Why didn't you
go to her and say something?" Mv
anvwer is that I believed ber to be a
creation of m.v own brain, an evidence

"How do you know that?"
"Never mind. Year father ami

alimony fixed by Ibe court ?t the time
of the divorce. Yonr aunt had nothing

earning your living aa a typewriter."
"How did you come to know all
this?"
"1 came to know It from my Inters
tn you. When you told roe that you
had seen your double I felt sore you
had seen some real person who re
sembied you Yon may remember thftf
I asked you at whst window yon had
seen your vision. Well, 1 went Into
the office to which that window be
longs and made Inquiries."
"What dW you And out?"
"Not all* I wtah to know You arc
too emotional for me to give you all
my confidence Just at present. I <*?
only say now that I expert to prove
that the person you saw Is a woman j
and not a creation of your brain."
1 begged him to tell me more, twit be
would not, and I was forced to g>
to work unsatisfied. 1 consequently
blundered all the afternoon. Though l
was reassured, one thing troubled me
Mr. Wheeler's severe treatment of mo
And yet I felt that It bad done more
to enable me to shake otf my nervow
ness than when he had sympathltH
with me. Indeed, he told me after
ward that he knew I ne?>ded Just such
treatment.
A few days later Mr. Wheeler cam*'
to my desk and told me to come Into
his private office. At the same time
he looked at me with a klndty smil*
and added:
"1 have a surprise for you. You
mustn't let It shock you."
Wondering. 1 went with him. I
found In his office a man and a wo
man.
Great heavens! The woman was my
vision
Slip (tunc toward me with ont- !
stretched arms I drew bwk In fright
"Pon't be afrnid of ?e. Polly. I'm
Polly, your twin sister. Father often
talked to me abont you and said thnt
?when his ship Mm* In' he would And
you for me. He died Jnst a* the aMp
came In. nnd I hare been hnntlne for
.too ever since."
She pnt her arms abont me, and my
hend sank down on her shoulder. She
patted roe affectionately "d said:
"I don't winder you bare been
wrought up over seeing me. When we
met on the street the other day, al
though I have been long looking for ,
yon, I was so startled that I let yon
pass. 1 turned hack at once. but had
lost yon In the rrowd. You don't seesn
as strong as I am. but you won't have
to work any more. We're rich Father
left half to yon? that 1s, If you were
alive and I could fln<l yon. When
father and mother separated mother
took you and father took me Y..n
have the same rights as I."
As soon ns my sister and I withdrew
from our embrace I turned to look at
Mr. Wheeler. His eyes were bent on
me with an expression that went
straight to my he*rt. I pat out my
hand to him Impulsively and returned j
his glance with one of the same kind
"Without his interest In the matter
I doubt If we would have ever got to

Gradually an th# details came our
