Doctor F. What? you say you are waiting to know whom to send! Well, you no need to be in such a hurry. You don't seem to care if l am suffer- ing" and she began to sob at the thought. There are some husbands who would pity poor, sick wife, but I ought to know by this time not to expect it from you. After all I think I'll see Doctor C..

Yes. I'll take Doctor G."
