Had these gibes been uttered in any other

with toothpick. and a silver went under
my finger nail"
Let me see," said the doctor, going to
her.
1t was as she had said. A tiny piece Of
wood lay under her nail, discoloring it. and
the doctor had some difficulty In extracting
it. He noted her admirable nerve as he
worked, for a silver in such place Is far
from easy to bear, as We all know, but he
had no suspicion that Amelia had inflicted
the wound purposely to break the cur
rent of conversation.

excuse for remaining longer, and he pre-
