Married Life
Fourth Year
ev MABEL HERBERT URNER.


The long corridor, the mingled odor
of ether and antiseptics, the uniformed
nurses, the air of hushed expectancy
1t was all a part Of the hospital at
mosphere.
81 should like to see Mr.. Curtis
Mr. Robert Curtis" murmured Helen
in a subdued tone to the nurse who
approached her.
Twill you wait for few moments
Mr.. Curtiss sister is with him now.
The doctor wishes him to have only
one visitor at a time"
Just then the door down the cor
ridor opened. and Carrie came out.
She greeted Helen stiffly, and the
nurse hurried off, leaving them to-
gether.
Don't let him talk it will only ex-
cite him. And l wouldn't stay too
long," admonished Carrie, with the
superior air that always nettled Helen
The doctor came by now, and Carrie
approached him. But he was gravely
non-committal, for he was only young
inferno, and the eminent Doctor Elliott
was in charge of the case.
Leaving Carrie talking to him, Hell
en- followed the nurse, who now came
to show her into Bob's room.
1t was the typical hospital room, de-
pressingly sanitary and bare. Bob lay
with his back to the door and did not
see her until she went AROUND to the
other side of the bed.
Hello, Helen" with faint motion
as though to stretch out his hand
Il am in rotten luck"
THE PATIENT.
you must not talk" soothingly
"They want you to be very quiet"
"Oh. they don't want me to breathe
Why don't they dose me up and get
out Of here. All they do is to jat
a thermometer down my throat"
But Bob, you are sick-very, very
sick"
well scribbling my temperature on
that chart up there isn't going to make
me any better. And that night
nurse
But even the exertion of talking was
too much, and now he lay with closed
eyes and labored breathing. Helen
smoothed the already smooth covers
and watched him anXiously How
gaunt and changed he was, and his
hand was burning hot.
She knew that he had been partly
unconscious during the night. DR.
Elliott had told Warren that this
morning. And now, as she waited
she could see that he was doing off
He still held her hand, and she die
not withdraw it for fear of arousine
him.
! In the oppressive silence OF the
room, Helen could hear the faint tick
ing of his watch as it lay on the table
beside the bed. Even the noises from
the street seemed curiously subdueC
and far away.
At length Bob stirred and glanced
up at her. She leaned forward now
determined to ask the question tina
had been beating in her Dind ever
since she had known he was so ser
iously i'll.
Bob, do you want Louise to know
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1914-07-08

here at S, and I hope he will leave an
order for fewer visitors while his tenn
perature IS SO high. You can see
yourself how they excite him."
Knowing Bob, Helen wondered il
the fact of visitors being excluded
would not excite him more. She had
always had a dread of hospitals, and
now she wished that he could have less
scientific and more human treatment
This nurse was undoubtedly capable
but she was cold and austere.
AS Helen was leaving, in the con.
fusion of corridor, she took the wrong
turn and found herself before the en-.
trance of a free ward.
1t was womans ward, long room
with rows Of narrow white beds. AL.
most every bed was taken, and Helen's
heart ached as she saw the faces on
the pillows, patient faces, querulous
faces, but all of them pale, haggard
and lined with suffering.
The nurse directed her back to the
private ward elevator, which took her
down to the main hall Outside the
sunlight seemed strange after the
gloomy depressing atmosphere of the
hospital.
For the rest of the day, Helen was
in the throes of indecision. From the
first of Bob's illness she had felt she
should write Louise. Yet if for all
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1914-07-08

then she would phone the massage.
She had never sent telegram by
telephone. but she knew 1t could be
done.
THE TELEGRAM.
It was almost twelve before Warren
finally went in to his bath. As soon
as she heard the water running. Helen
ran to the phone and In low voice
called up the telegraph Office.
Il wish to send . message to Palm
Beach. How can l prepay it?'
THAT is all right, it's charged on
your telephone bill"
Then Helen read slowly the message
she had written out
Louise Whitmore, Hotel Royal,
Poinciana, Palm Beach, Florida:
Bob is very ill. Unconscious.
Doctor admits condition is serious.
Thought I ought to let you know.
No one knows l am wiring.
Helen"
The operator read it back for accu
racy. -'s'+
What time will that be delivered? %
she asked.
Then you don't want it sent as q
night letter."
"Oh, no, no! l want it delivered at
once! How long will it take?"
| 1T should be there in two hours
three at the most"
In two or three hours! BY three
o'clock Louise would know. What
would she do?"
| Would she take the the first train fol
New York? If she did-would her
coming help Bob, or might she be bad
for him? Might he even refuse to see
herr"
| Helen spent a sleepless night, an
gushing over every possible outcome
of her telegram
! Yet even her intense anxiety could
not wholly submerge her innate love
of the dramatic, and there was a thrill
ing undercurrent of expectancy for the
emotional possibilities of the situation
that Louise's return would precip
itate.

For a moment he did not answer.
what difference will it make to
her." bitterly.
THAT is an evasion. want to write
but not without your consent. Just
say that l may-that you will not
be angry"
Helen's heart beat fast as she waited
for his answer. She could not see his
face He had turned it from her
Then the door opened and the nurse
entered. At glance she saw Bob's
labored breathing, and turned to Hell
en- with a whispered:
81 am afraid that you had better not
stay any longer
Helen rose reluctantly. She linger-
ed by the bed a moment, hoping Bob
would speak to her. But as he did
not, she tip-toed out and waited in the
corridor

What are you giving him for
nourishment?" she asked, when the
nurse came out, decided frown under
her stiff cap.

"Albumen water?" questioned Helen.

MEXICAN VAQUfR0S
WITH BUFFALO SHOW
Cowboys of Southern Repub-
lie Will Ride ,Untamed
Horses in Circus.

The combination Of the Young Buff
4alo Wild West, Vernon c. Searver's
Hippodrome and Colonel Cummins' Far
East, which win show in Richmond
twice on Thursday, July 3. brings to-
gether three Of the most pleasing
and up-to-dats forces of tented amuse-
nents Of modern times. each in itself
complete in every detail.
It would be hard to find more up-to-
the-minute amusement than that az
6orded by the combination Of Wild
West, Hippodrome and Far East, en-
lbracing as 1t does the most entertain
ing and diversified features in exist
Snce.
Besides the true American pioneer,
who is shown with careful attention
30 accuracy in every detail OF his
eventful life, and the Indian in every
phase of life, both in war and peace,
there will be presented a vast con-
course OF cowboys. cowgirls, Mexican
yacqueros and rurales. rough-riding
and broncho busting, trick and fancy
roping and shooting. This latter fea-
ture is featured in stellar manner by
the world-renowned Annie Laurie,
champion rifle shot, who will give a
remarkable demonstration of rifle and
revolver workmanship, unequaled by
the efforts even of the early plainsmen,
who had to shoot quickly and accurate
ay to preserve their lives. These and
various other acts, each the premier
of it's class, make up the Wild West
section of this extraordinary combina-
lion of exhibitions.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1914-07-08

these weeks Louise had been deter
minedly schooling herself to forget
would not the knowledge that Bob
was sick undo much OF that?
Helen shrank from the responsibility
of anything that might result in bring
ing them together again. Yet IL any
thing should happen to Bob-if he
should not get well-Louise might al
ways blame her.
When Warren came home at six, he
plainly showed his anxiety He had
not been to the hospital since morn
in, but he was going after dinner.
Father is there now. just had him
on the wire. He will stay until !
come. Tell Nora to put dinner on
right away. Don't want much anyway"
In less than half an hour he had
gulped down a hasty dinner. and was
on his way to the hospital.
BAD NEWS.
For Helen it was a long. lonely eve
ming of anxious brooding. Warren
had said he would be back by nine
but it was after ten before he came
"He is worse" briefly, as Heller
met him in the hall. Temperature
104. Unconscious part of the time"
Unconscious"
"They. sent for DR.. Elliott, that is
why waited He says there is nc
danger tonight-but that is all hi
would say"
Helen had only once before seen
Warren deeply affected, and now she
stood silently, helplessly by while he
walked up and down, his hands clasp
ed behind him.
Dear" she ventured at length
don't you think we ought to wire
Louise?"
what for?" savagely. "She il
nothing to him now
"Bnt don't you think she ought tt
know"
mo I don't!" he almost shouted.
But dear, maybe-maybe she could
do more for him than the doctors o.
any one else"
At this suggestion Warren fairl!
, snorted. Helen said no more, but hi
report that Bob was unconscious ha(
decided her. She would take the risl
she would wire Louise!
1t was almost eleven-how could she
get the message off tonight? There
was a telegraph office only few
blocks away, but if she sent for {
messenger, Warren would know wher
he came.
At last she thought out plan. She
would wait until Warren was taking
his bath and could not hear her

Kirby Faces Trip.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 18.-The night it was dark. A small bunch of men slipped down the steep bank of the stream. The gentle chug chug of the steamer could be scarcely heard. The careworn travellers spoke in whispers, too disheartened to en- ter into a general conversation.
 The party reached the edge of the water and a hand was offer ed the apparent leader to assist him across the gang plank to the river craft. He declined it with a feeble wave of the hand.
 No use Smead," stated the individual with the stopped shoulders, T can find that plank in the dark. You can't fool me, I can tell by the smell that this is Salt river, I have made the trip several times before. l have been preparing for this trip for weeks, and this time l guess 1 will just stay aboard As the plank was pulled in there were a few puffs of smoke from the twin smoke stacks which lighted the scene an in- stant, and the boat backed off in- to the bracken waters of the stream.
 Good Bye Bill," cried the re- maining forms on the bank.
 Goodbye boys," came a faint response from the craft as it buckeled to the task of taking another disappointed politician to that haven of political rest oblivion.
