Elaine was quite i'll indeed.
"Ohl I'm so glad TO see you," she
breathed with an air Of relief as Ken
nedy advanced.
"Why-what is the matter?" asked
Craig anxiously.
Doctor Hayward shook his head du-
biously, but Kennedy did not notice
him. for. as he approached Elaine. she
drew from the covers wnoie sne iiai

At the signature of the Clutching

peated his question, What Is the mat

There seemed to be faint odor, al

was unmistakable and Craig looked
about him curiously, but said nothing.
AS he shifted, he moved impatiently
and his foot touched Rusty, under the
bed. Rusty whined and moved back
lazily. Craig bent over and looked
at him.
What's the matter with Rusty?" he
asked. "Is he sick, too?"
'Why, yes" answered Elaine, fol-
lowing Craig with her deep eyes.
Craig reached down and gently
pulled the collie out into the room.
Rusty crouched down close to the
floor. His nose was hot and dry and
feverish. He was plainly i'll.
How long has Rusty been in the
room?' asked Craig 81

May I take Rusty along with me?"
Craig asked finally.
Elaine hesitated. Surely" she said

cover the trouble from studying him. -
We stayed only a few minutes
longer, for Kennedy seemed to realize
the necessity of doing something i'm.

Back in the laboratory, Kennedy set

that Kauff misrepresentcd facts when
he assured them he was not under
