BY MABEL HERBERT URNER.

There's a flask of brandy in Mt.
Curtis's satchel-the one over there
on the chair. 1 don't think it's lock-
ed"
When the maid had gone she lay
back with closed eyes. The brandy
was tingling through her. bringing a
delicious sense of drowsiness. Her
thoughts grew confused. In rev
moments she was asleep.
Hello. there, What's all this?
She awoke with a start 10 find War
rem standing beside the bed. For
moment she was too dazed 10 speak
Then she murmured vague:
"Oh. dear. I'm so sick
Sick? What's the trOuble?"
I'm afraid I've had chilli"
Chill? Nonsense, Something you've
eaten has upset you"
But. Warren, I've a fever now Just
feel how hot my face it,"
Helen was not one OF the many
women who exaggerate and take ad-
vantage OF every slight illness that
they may receive sympathy and atten-
ton from their husbands. Yet she
was now conscious of a thrill of some
thing like satisfaction when Warren
felt her forehead and found il so fever
ish that the curt indifference of his
manner was somewhat modified.

all. It's this COMPOUNDED climate. Up

myself
1t was one of Warren's cbaracteris-
tics that whenever Helen felt badly he
would always make some remark
about not being well himself.
He had not kissed her since he en-
tered and now she put up a tremulous
70 drau hood
"Oh, I'm all dusty" drawing back.
This London CRIME cuts into your
skin. Let me get washed up"
Guess you don't feel like going out
to dinner?"
"Oh, Warren" She could not keep
the reprOach out of her tone.
We'll. I'm not asking you. Needn't
put on such an injured air. What do
YOU want sent up here?"
In a rush it came to Helen that she
was to be left alone again-that ne
as to send up her dinner ana go out
for his.
Dear. can't you have your dinner
sent up. too?"
Certainly not I couldn't eat up

broth? What else?"
Il don't think 1 can eat anything, -
TREMENDOUSLY turning away.
Course you can. A little broth'll
be good for you. / won't be gone
long. Just going to some chop house
near here"
He stopped over and kissed her hur-
riedly.
Now don't think you're going TO
be sick It's only this beastly climate.
Most Americans get a touch of it,"
Left Alone.

I'm going down stairs 10 get or some
letters. And / want TO find you asleep
when 1 come back. I'll turn in with
out waking you. You'll be all right in
the morning"
He had switched off the light so il
would not shine in her eyes, and Helen
lay there in the darkened room with
an ache in her heart that was much
harder 10 bear than the pain in her
throat.
When, an hour later, ne came back,
she was not asleep, but she lay with
closed eyes pretending that she was.
He got out of his clothes with a
heavy mans ponderous attempt TO be
silent. The bed creaked loudly when
ne got in, but still Helen feigned I'M
consciousness. 1t would only irritatc
him TO find her awake.
In a few minutes he was sleeping
soundly. while she lay beside him rest
lessly turning her heated pillow and
listening TO the quarter hour chimes
from some distant church tower.

She was ill-trem blingly. quivering-

sweeping over her.
II had come upon her suddenly
while she was going through the
British museum. How she got back
10 the hotel she did not know. There
was daZed recollection Of asking a
policeman what bus to take. and Of the
ride back, which seemed endless-but
nothing was clear.
And now she lay there too weak TO
even take off her things. What was
IL? Was she going TO be very III?
II she could only reach Warren! She
was terrified at the thought Of being
there alone until six--the time they
had arrange to meet. But there was
no way she could reach him by phone.
With a determined effort she arose.
got out of her clothes. and into a loose
dressing gown, but she was so dizzy
she could hardly stand.
Oh, how good il felt 20 slip in be-
tween the cool fresh sheets, for now
she was burning with fever. In a mo-
ment her hot face had warmed the
pillow and she moved her head for a
cooler part.
She had intended to ring for the
maid while she was up, and now she
lay looking at the bell dreading the
effort il would take TO reach il. Her
whole body seemed TO shrink from mo-
ton. she wanted only to lie still.
When once more she finally forced
herself out Of bed and over TO the
bell. she crept back again with a wave
Of nausea surging through her while

The maid came, a typical English
maid with white cap and rosy COM
plexiOn. With quick sympathy she
asked If Madame was i'll.
Helen sent her for some ice water
with ice in it,. For the luke-warm
water the English used always sicken-
ed her.
Never had the clinking of ice against
a pitcher sounded SO grateful. The
maid put the water on a stand by the
bed and Helen drank eagerly a large
glassful.
Warren Arrives.
Perhaps madame has had a chill"
she suggested. when Helen told her OF
the hot and cold flashes and the cold
perspiratiOn.
chill, Strange she had not thought
OF that PROFESSIONALLY it had been
chill. But il was more than that
ROW. for she was conscious of a sore
throat and of a curious ache in every
limb.
Would madame like 70 see a doc

Helen hesitated She knew nothing of
the English doctors, and i'll as she was,
she had visions Of enormous bills.
No / think I'll wait till my hus-
band comes-he'll be here at six"
"If you'H take a little brandy.
ma'am,'' ventured the maid. That's
always good for a chill"

Helen lay staring at the wallpaper.
Usually her love SO blinded her that
she did not often realize Warren'S
utter selfishness. but tonight il seemed
forced upon her.
How could ne leave hel alone. when
he could so easily have had MS dinner
sent up? What II she should be Sc
rioUsly III over here2 It was not the
illness that she thought Of with such
terror. but the fear of learning 20 what
extreme Warren's selfishness and in
difference might go. She must not be
ill-she must not put him 10 that test
A little later there was a knock at
the door. and a waiter entered with a
tray and placed it on the bed beside
her. There was a bowl Of chicken
broth, thin buttered toast and some
crisp fresh romaine salad
At least Warren had remembered
that she loved rOmaine. 1t was an alb
sUrdly little thing 10 Offset the rest Of
his selfshness, yet Il brought a faint
glow OF pleasure.
But she could not eat Just the
exertion of raising on her elbow to get

When Warren returned he froWned
at the untouched tray.
That's no way To do. You've got

some of that broth. Wait. III fix that
pillow at your back. BY George, these
English pillows are heavy and hard as
bricks. Thought you were going TO
have the maid take off this bolster"
II did tell her, dear. but guess she
forgot"
Huh, she didn't want 10 take it off.
She always made her beds with a
big soggy bolster and two big soggy
pillows and she's not going to change.
that's the English of il.
He jerked off the bolster so rough
ly that the whole bed shook and the
bowl Of broth sloshed out on the tray

Obediently she slipped at the broth
then pushed it aside with a faint

tone implied that she had wilfuliy
chosen 10 have a sore throat.
It's been sore all afternoon You

Doesn't that start with a chill?"
"TOnsilitis - huh? Wonder you
