when Miss Tyler took overexercise. But
this was due to poor digestion caused by
oyereating-sorry but true accusation
against SO pretty woman-and ennui
and lack of regular occupation.
The doctor wrote outsome hieroglyph-

some ingredient which made 1t good to

she blushed.
The doctor felt like playing leap frog
over the table, he was SO excited, for he
was as young as he looked in many re-
spects. He contained himself notwith-
standing and bowed her out very gravely.
After she had gone he threw himself
in a chair, clapped his hands upon his
knees loudly and repeatedly and gave

Then he ran to the window, and as he
watched the receding carriage passing
along toward Fifth avenue he cried out

Now, Mr.. Cortland Tyler was an I'M
commonly practical and shrewd man in
his business affairs and sentimental
and devoted man in his private affairs.
He worshiped his daughter Clara as any
wealthy descendant of the good old
Dutchmen of Sir Peter Stuyvesant's time
would beautiful and affectionate girl
who was his only kin. But Mr.. Cort-
land Tyler had very little nonsense about
him even in his private life, and when
poor old DR.. Skuyler told him that his
daughters heart disease was imagination
he was inclined to believe it.
As to the new doctor, Struthers, Mr..
Tyler disapproved Of him and at first
forbade her to go to see him again. Miss
Clara knew her father pretty well chat
was why she had SO many Injuries and
knickknacks), and she suggested that
possibly DR.. Skuyler was not infallible,
although an excellent physician, she ad-
mitted, and that perhaps if she did have
heart disease the new physician might
be the means of saving her life. Her
father was powerless against such argu-
ments as these. The thought of his
daughter having heart disease and leav-
ing him as his devoted wife had done
made him shudder. When he discovered
that after two weeks of DIR. Struthers'
treatment Clara was certainly none the
worse off and apparently better, he was
quite won over.
Miss Tyler did send some of her "set"

tor with good results. DR.. Struthers'
