CHAPTER v.

l lay down across my bed at six
o'clock that morning, but l was too
tired and worried to sleep, so at seven
got up and dressed. l put on two
pairs of stockings and heavy shoes, for
knew l was going to do the Eskimo
act again that day and goodness
knows how many days more, and then
l went down and knocked at the door
of Miss Patty's room. She hadn't been
sleeping, either. She called to me in
an undertone to come in, and she was
lying propped up with pillows, with
something pink around her shoulders
and the night lamp burning beside the
bed
| I walked over to the foot of the bed
They're here" I said.
She sat up, and some letters slid to
the floor.
They're here!" she repeated. do
you mean Dorothy?"
"She and her husband. They came
here last night at five minutes to
twelve. Their train was held up by
the blizzard and they won't come in
until they see you. They're hiding
in the shelter-house on the golf links" !"
think she thought l was crazy: I
looked it. She hoped out of bed and
closed the door into her sitting-room-
Mrs. Hutchins' (Patty's old nurse)
room opened off it-and then she came
over and put her hand on my arm.
will you sit down and try to tell
me just what you mean?" she said.
How can my sister and her-her
wretch of a husband have come last
night at midnight when l saw Mr.. Car
ter myself not later than ten o'clock?"
Well, had to tell her then about
who Mr.. Pierce was and why had to
get him, and she understood almost
at once. She was the most understand
ing girl | ever met. She saw at once
what Mr.. Sam wouldn't have known
in thousand years-that l wanted to
save the old place-not to keep my po.
sition-but because I'd been there SO
long, and my father before me, and had
helped to make it what it was and
all that.
But here l am" finished, telling
you about my troubles and forgetting
what l came for. You'll have to &c
out to the shelter-house, Miss Patty
And l guess you're expected to fix II
up with your father"
She stopped unfastening her long
braids of hair.
Certainly I'll go to the shelter
house." she said, "and I'll shake a
little sense into Dorothy Jennings
the abominable little idiot! But they
needn't think I'm going to help them
with father; wouldn't If could, and

house and dropped in front Of the fire.
What with worry and no sleep and,
now this new complication was dead
as yesterdays newspaper. l sat there
on the floor with my hands around my
knees, thinking what to do next.
When I opened my eyes Mr.. Pierce
was sitting on the other side Of the
chimney and staring at the fire. He
had a pipe between his teeth, but he
wasn't smoking, and he had something
of the same look about his mouth he'd
had the first day / saw him.
"Well?" he said, when he saw was
awake.
That minute made up my mind not
to tell him all the facts. He might
think the situation was too much for
him and leave, or he might decide he
ought to tell Miss Summers where
Dick was. There was no love lost be-
tween him and Mr.. Carter.
I'm just tired and cranky" / said.
''so-is Miss Summers settled YETI"
| He nodded, as IL he wasn't think
ing of Miss Summers.
What did you tell her?"
Haven't seen her." he said. Sent
her a note that I was understanding
man named Carter and to mind to
| pick up her cues"
IT'S common enough name,"
said, but he had lighted his pipe again
and had dropped forward, one elbow
on his knee, his hand holding the bexl
of his pipe, and staring into the fire,
He looked up when I closed and
locked the pantry door,

There's nothing uncertain about
what she wants, or wrong either" I
retorted. "She's right enough. The
family can't stand scandal Just now
with her wedding so close"
He smiled and got up. emptying his
pipe.

and looked amused.
They're here. Sallie," he called to
his wife, and they both came in, cov-
cred with snow, and we had coffee and
eggs all over again.
Well, they stayed for an hour, and
Mr.. Sam talked himself black In the

grew more cheerful.
Oh, we were very cheerful! l look
back now and think how cheerful we
were, and shudder We sat around
the fire and ate and laughed, and Mr.
Dick arranged that Mr.. Pierce should
come out to him every evening for
orders about the place-if he accepted,
and everybody felt he would-and
was to come at the same time and
bring basket of provisions for the
next day. or course, the instant Mr
Jennings left the young couple could
go into the sanatorium as guests under
another name and be comfortable
And as soon as the time limit was up
and the place was still running smooth

the sanatorium, having fulfilled the
conditions of the will, and confess to
Mr.. Jennings-over the long-distance
wire.

morning, looking lemon-colored and

we made two mistakes; we didn't
count on Mr.. Thoburn, and we didn't
