Their Married Life

! standing around and she kept her
eyes closely pusposely. She was lifted
Into a machine and a few minutes
later was stretched carefully on a
bed in her own room, the long rub
ber coat that some one had wrapped
around her keeping the bedclothes
from being soaked from her wet
bathing suit.
Later she opened her eyes TO find
herself alone with Warren. He was
standing by the bed looking at her
and she couldn't help smiling at the
funny sight he made standing there
in his bathing suit with a coat thrown
over his shoulders.
You'd better not move till the doc
tor comes" he said softly. Had a
bad time of it all right, didn't you
Guess We'll have those headaches
tended to: You gave me bad scare
there for a while!"
Helen felt like saying that nothing
would have happened If she had spent
the morning quietly in her room as
she had suggested, but she did not
feel like reproaching Warren now;
he seemed so sorry for her, and so
upset over the entire affair.
"I don't want to see the doctor in
these wet clothes. Warren; If you
would get my kimono for me, I'll try
to take off this wet suit"
| You'll do nothing of the kind. I
want the doctor to see you before
you get excited in any way; then you
can go to bed after he has been
here!" And at that moment there
was a knock at the door and Warren
admitted an elderly man with beard
lwho came over to the bed and looked
at Helen searchingly.
| How did 1t happen?" he inquired
gravely. Did you have a cramp, or
was it just plain fright:"
1T was my head, doctor; had an
awful headache. I'm subject to them.
and the pain nearly drove me mad"
up this morning."
Yes, always wake up with them
What made you go in bathing /?
I'm surprised that you felt well
enough"
II thought the water might do me
good; 1 really felt better when I first
went in, and then the sun seemed to
make me faint?"
"Ill leave you some tablets for your
, head, Mrs. Curtis. Take one whenever
| you feel a headache coming on. and
| I'll fix you something that will put
you to sleep. You'd better STAY in
bed quietly for the rest of the day."
What causes the headaches, doc
tor?" said Helen as the doctor took
up his hat to go.
Excitement, nothing but an over
excited brain. You dream a lot,
suppose. Better leave your imagina-
ton alone all you can unless it's really
necessary to use It."
Who brought me home said
Helen curlously after she was COM
fortably in bed and beginning to feel
! slightly drowsy.
Mrs. Benbrook offered her car; she
happened to be right there when we
carried you out. Some sensation, you
made, and You were the greatest
while coming too after we had you on
the beach"
Warren had gone down to the bath
house to dress and he had brought
Helen's clothes back with him. He
was now standing before the morror
putting on a fresh collar before going
to lunch.
Mrs, Raymond was down on the
porch when we carried you in, wanted
to come right up. but I told her you
couldn't possibly see anyone till after
the doctor had been here anyway.
She certainly is the pest of the hotel.
Nobody likes her that I can see"
Warren had finished tying his tie
and now turned around to look at
Helen again before he left the room.
Want anything to eat? I'll have
tray sent up If you can eat any
thing"
mo, dear, I'll be asleep by the time
you have reached the dining room. 1
couldn't eat a thing"
Just as we'll not to eat anything
now, anyway. You had about all
the excitement you need for one day;
sure you'll be all right il 1 leave
| you?"
Helen nodded sleepily.
Iaf
afternoon, either; you wouldn't have
these headaches if you followed my
advice a little oftener."
